3．　　Julia lived with a German shepherd dog named Lucy in a small apartment in the city.
　　One day, Julia saw a news story about volunteers with search-and-rescue dogs. From the news story, Julia learned how search-and-rescue dogs are diffierent. They are so filled with motivation that they will work hard for a reward, like a toy or a bone. To search-and-rescue dogs, looking for lost people was like playing a game. From what she learned, Julia thought Lucy seemed like a natural search-and-rescue dog.
　　Soon Julia and Lucy began training with other dog trainers and their search﹣and﹣rescue dogs. With each successful find, Lucy received a special toy. Julia trained herself too, like running, biking, and climbing, so she would be strong enough to keep up with Lucy.
　　Their first rescue call came in the middle of the night. Three college students had gone hiking in a far-away forest and had not come home. The woods were filled with all kinds of dangers.
　　At the site, Julia met up with her team and got her task. As day broke, she took Lucy down a road. Lucy ran ahead, smelling with her nose in the air. Filled with anxiety and concern for the safety of the students, Julia called out their names. She and Lucy spent hours along the trail. Julia was proud they helped in some way, although another team found the hikers finally.
　　Julia and Lucy's next chance to help came soon. An earthquake shook the city in which Julia had once lived. Many people were missing or hurt. Lucy and Julia and other trained volunteers searched the city blocks for people to rescue. Using her nose as a guide, Lucy led the workers to people trapped (被困住的) in the falling buildings. Julia felt honored to be a part of the work. She also knew that she and Lucy had found their calling in life at the moment*She knew what they should do to make their life meaningful. She decided they would always be a part of a rescue team later in life.

4．　　By the year 2050, it is said that the world's population will reach nine billion. With such a large population to feed, what should we do to provide everyone with enough food in the future? What will happen if everyone needs more meat in the diet?Food supply is going to be a big headache.
　　Australian journalist and science writer, Julian Cribb, explains the challenges. Cribb says there is a major problem in the current food system, especially in the developed world. As more and more people move towards city centers, the less and less they know about where their food comes from. Most think food simply grows on supermarket shelves, and they don't consider the environmental effects of food production.
　　Food also has many hidden costs:huge amount of water, energy, and land degradation (退化). Consumers add their own costs by simply throwing away a lot of food. The figures for food waste in West are surprising.
　　To solve this problem of public ignorance (无知) about food, Cribb suggests that food should be taught as a subject at primacy school. This would help to create a future generation that could better deal with the world's coming food challenges. This powerful measure can help them become more educated consumers, more productive farmers, and so on.
　　Cribb offers other solutions and suggestions as well. One is to increase the money for agriculture (农业) research, which has not been taken seriously so far. He also suggests organic (有机的) fanning should be understood on a scientific basis. People should change their fixed thinking and get the very best out of organic farming systems. By doing so, we may know how to stop wasting water and learn how to grow food more cheaply. Besides, Cribb asks all consumers to eat more fruits and vegetables. Compared with meats, they take less time and water to grow so that they are much greener as food and more friendly to the environment.

5．　　His friends and family call him "Big Feng" because he is very tall and played basketball as a young man. But he is also big in a different way 一 he fights hard to protect China's past. His real name is Feng Jicai and he has written many novels about life in China.
　　Several years ago, however, he put down his pen for a while and began to protect the cultural relics (文化遗产) in Tianjin where he lived. Once someone asked him why he no longer wrote. He replied that at the moment he felt protecting cultural relics was more important.
　　Feng loves his hometown. He believes that old things must be given a place next to new things, or people will soon forget their great past. He does not make speeches to get others to help him in his projects. Instead, he goes out and does what he can himself. If others follow him, so much the better. One of his biggest projects was to protect the oldest street in Tianjin. Along that street some shops had been in business for seven hundred years. Although the city government rebuilt this street, they did save its oldest building. Another project was more successful:he suggested the city government reserve (保留) some land in the centre of the city so it could not be sold for business. This area is very important for the history of Tianjin. It was here that the city was first built during the Song Dynasty Later many treasures were found here.
　　To Feng, digging down into the earth is like reading a book page after page. Each dynasty found in the earth is like an interesting story. Not long ago, he and other writers and artists took photos of the old parts of Tianjin. The photos were put into a book which was very popular The money from the book helps his projects. Once, an old man asked Feng to sign a book for him, saying he would give it to his grandson who was not yet born. Feng was glad to do it he knows that the past is not only for us to enjoy but also for the children of the future.
