In college，I wrote an essay about Christmas Eve to catch the spirit of this special night for my family.I got an A，and even better was this comment from my professor， "I believe you have found a direction for future job."
   My essay described our traditions：turkey，church，two presents.A lot of it was about my Aunt Bud，the head of my mom's family.We were lucky we lived closest，so she spent holidays at our house.Sadly，she's gone now.Like so many wonderful spirits，she died too young，just after she retired with big plans for an easy life.But she's not really gone.She visits us all often，in the form of a cardinal-her favorite bird.
   One June day，I called my mom. "What are you doing？" I asked. "Sitting here looking at the tree，"she said，referring to the tree in the middle of our yard.It was about a foot tall when my dad planted it；today it towers over the roof. "There are cardinals all over it，" Mom said. "I've never seen so many." I wasn't surprised. "Mom，you know what day it is，right？" I said. "It's Aunt Bud's birthday." So of course，she had come to visit-with friends.
   In this issue of our Reader's Digest，we've collected inspiring stories about unusual events that happened around the holidays.This year we focus on people who showed a kindness that made a forever difference in someone's life. "Angels in action，" we call them.I hope your angels visit you this holiday season.Please write to me at letters@rd.jye.ai and share your stories with us.

  • 1．As I got into the plane flying to Boston last week and saw what row I was sitting in，I could see a mother sitting in the first seat and in the middle was a little girl，2 or 3 I'm guessing，put into a car seat.As I looked at the mother，I could sense her nervousness-likely worried as to who would be sitting next to her daughter and what the reaction would be.
       Once I sat down，I could see why she was worried.The small child was handicapped and struggled to perform many of the functions the rest of us take for granted.Her eyes seemed to wonder，her arms would occasionally wave about，and she appeared to be a child dumb as well.
       But in spite of all of this，she was a beautiful little girl with a magical smile.And when I looked at her and smiled，she would return the favor.
       After a while，she started grabbing my arm so as to hold it.Her mother would quickly ask her to stop and at first I acted like I didn't notice.About the 4th time the little girl grabbed my arm with her small hand and the mother began to ask her to stop，I gave her a simple look of confidence and told her everything was OK，and that as a father of four little ones myself，it was nice to have someone the same age of my youngest，sitting next to me.
       The mother seemed relieved and for the rest of the 90-minute flight，I felt a little hand across my forearm.Once again，gratitude filled my heart as thoughts and reflections on my own life，health，and children flooded my mind.

    （1）Why did the mother look nervous？

    A．Because she took up the author's seat.
    B．Because her child was making noises.
    C．Because she was worried about her child.
    D．Because her child might cause trouble.
    （2）When did the author know the child was handicapped？

    A．When the mother told him about the child.
    B．When he asked the mother some questions.
    C．When he had a talk with the small child.
    D．When the child failed to do usual behavior.
    （3）What's the author's attitude towards the child？

    A．Fatherly.
    B．Negative.
    C．Doubtful.
    D．Indifferent.

  • 2．After years of heated debate，gray wolves were reintroduced to Yellowstone National Park.Fourteen wolves were caught in Canada and transported to the park.
       By last year，the Yellowstone wolf population had grown to more than 170 wolves.Gray wolves once were seen here and there in the Yellowstone area and much of the continental United States，but they were gradually displaced by human development.By the 1920s，wolves had practically disappeared from the Yellowstone area.They went farther north into the deep forests of Canada，where there were fewer humans around.
       The disappearance of the wolves had many unexpected results.Deer and elk populations — major food sources（來源） for the wolf - grew rapidly.These animals consumed large amounts of vegetation（植被），which reduced plant diversity in the park.In the absence of wolves，coyote populations also grew quickly.The coyotes killed a large percentage of the park' s red foxes，and completely drove away the park's beavers.
       As early as 1966，biologists asked the government to consider reintroducing wolves to Yellowstone Park.They hoped that wolves would be able to control the elk and coyote problems.Many farmers opposed the plan because they feared that wolves would kill their farm animals or pets.
       The government spent nearly 30 years coming up with a plan to reintroduce the wolves.The U.S.Fish and Wildlife Service carefully monitors and manages the wolf packs in Yellowstone.Today，the debate continues over how well the gray wolf is fitting in at Yellowstone.Elk，deer，and coyote populations are down，while beavers and red foxes have made a comeback.The Yellowstone wolf project has been a valuable experiment to help biologists decide whether to reintroduce wolves to other parts of the country as well.

    （1）What is the text mainly about？

    A．Wildlife research in the United States.
    B．Plant diversity in the Yellowstone area.
    C．The conflict between farmers and gray wolves.
    D．The reintroduction of wolves to Yellowstone Park.
    （2）What does the underlined word "displaced" in paragraph 2 mean？

    A．Tested.
    B．Separated.
    C．Forced out.
    D．Tracked down.
    （3）What did the disappearance of gray wolves bring about？

    A．Damage to local ecology.
    B．A decline in the park's income.
    C．Preservation of vegetation.
    D．An increase in the variety of animals.
    （4）What is the author's attitude towards the Yellowstone wolf project？

    A．Doubtful.
    B．Positive.
    C．Disapproving.
    D．Uncaring.
