About this tie I alost stepped on a good-sized snake, and it oved quietly and soothly through the grass and flowers, and I after it, trying to get a shot at it. I clipped along, and all of a sudden I bounded right on to the ashes of a cap fire t hat was still soking.
y heart juped up aong y lungs. I never waited for to look further, but uncocked y gun and went sneaking back on y tiptoes as fast as I could. Every now and then I stopped a second aong the thick leaves and listened, but y breath cae so hard that I couldn't hear anything else. I oved quietly along another piece further, then listened again; and so on, and so on. If I see a stup (樹樁) , I took it for a an; if I stepped on a stick and broke it, it ade e feel like a person had cut one of y breaths in two and I only got half, and the short half, too.
There was no tie to be fooling around. When getting to the cap, I got all y traps into y canoe again to have the out of sight. I put out the fire and threw the ashes around to look like an old last year's cap, and then clibed a tree.
I suppose I was up for two hours; but I didn't see or hear anything—I only thought I heard and saw as uch as a thousand things. Well, I couldn't stay up there forever; so at last I got down, but I kept in the thick woods and on the lookout all the tie. All I could get to eat was berries and what was left over fro breakfast.

Africa is hoe to a wide variety of religions and cultures, and this colorful variety is reflected in its diverse and colorful weddings traditions.
If any one wedding tradition ight be said to be indicative of the African continent it would be the iportance of faily. An African wedding is, ore than anything, the bringing together of two people as a single faily, or the cobining of two failies or even the ixture of two tribes into one faily unit. The concept of faily is one of the unifying ideas of the African continent.
There are ore than l, 000 cultural units in Africa and each culture, each tribe has its own wedding and arriage traditions, any of which can trace their origins back hundreds or even thousands of years.
Depending on which part of Africa you are in, wedding cereonies can be elaborate, soe lasting any days. Often huge cereonies are held during which any couples are united at the sae tie.
In Sudan and other areas along the Nile, a an ust pay his wife's faily in sheep or cattle for the loss of their daughter's labor in support of the faily. A wife ay cost a an as any as 30 to 40 head of cattle. Often it is difficult to pay the faily yet still have enough cattle left to support his neife.
In Soalia a an is allowed to have as any as four wives if he can support the all, and it is not uncoon for a girl to be engaged before she is even born.
Bright festive colors, song, dance, and usic are vital eleents of any African wedding cereonies. Coon to all wedding cereonies is the concept of transitioning (過渡) between childhood and adulthood. In any African cultures children are encouraged to arry as young as 13 to 1ears of age, as soon as they have reached physical adulthood.
Divorce is rare in African arriages. Probles in a arriage are often discussed with both failies and solutions found. Often entire villagers join in to help a couple find solutions to their probles and keep a arriage fro failing.
arriage is sacred (神圣的) the world over, and that is definitely true in Africa, no atter which region or which culture you coe fro, and no atter what your religious beliefs. In fact, any cultures have a special tote (圖騰) that is designed to reind a couple that cultural and tribal differences ust be allowed for in order to ake a arriage succeed. X k b 1

In a country that defines itself by ideals, not by s hared blood, who should be allowed to coe work and live here? In the wake of the Sept. 11 attacks these questions have never seeed ore pressing.
On Dec. 11, 2001, as part of the effort to increase hoeland security, federal and local authorities in 14 states staged “ Operation Safe Travel”—raids on airports to arrest eployees with false identification. In Salt Lake City there were 69 arrests. But those captured were anything but terrorists, ost of the illegal iigrants fro Central or South Aerica. Authorities said the undocuented workers' illegal status ade the open to blackail (訛詐) by terrorists.
any iigrants in Salt Lake City were angered by the arrests and said they felt as if they were being treated like disposable goods.
ayor Anderson said those feelings were justified to a certain extent. “We're saying we want you to work in these places, we're going to look the other way in ters of what our laws are, and then when it's convenient for us, or when we can try to ake a point in ters of national security, especially after Sept.11, then you're disposable. There are whole failies being uprooted for all of the wrong reasons,” Anderson said.
If Sept. 11 had never happened, the airport workers would not have been arrested and could have gone on quietly living in Aerica, probably indefinitely. Ana Castro, a anager at a Ben ≈ Jerry's ice crea shop at the airport had been working 10 y ears with the sae false Social Security card when she was arrested in the Deceber airport raid. Now she and her faily are living under the threat of deportation (驅(qū)逐出境). Castro's case is currently waiting to be settled. While she awaits the outcoe, the governent has granted her perission to work here and she has returned to her job at Ben ≈ Jerry's.
72. According to the author, the United States clais to be a nation .
A. coposed of people having different values
B. encouraging individual pursuits
C. sharing coon interests
D. founded on shared ideals
73. How did the iigrants in Salt Lake City feel about “Operation Safe Travel”?
A. Guilty. B. Offended. C. Disappointed. D. Discouraged.
74. By saying “we're going Lo look the other way in ters of what our laws are” (Line2, Para.4), ayor
Anderson eans“________”
A. we will turn a blind eye to your illegal status
B. w e will exaine the laws in a different way
C. there are other ways of enforcing the law
D. the existing laws ust not be ignored
75. What do we learn about Ana Castro fro the last paragraph?

Aericans grow happier as they age, surveys find. And a new Pew Research Center survey shows the tendency is holdin g up as the econoy declines.
Happiness is a coplex thing. Past studies have found that old en tend to be happier than old woen.
And even before the econoy got terrible, seniors were found to be generally happier than Baby Booers (people who were born during a period when a lot of babies were born, especially between 1946 and 1964) .aybe it's because past generations have realized the Aerican Drea, while Booers work two jobs and watch the drea change.
In ties like this, it's clear how age can have its advantages. While not all seniors are facing the recession (經(jīng)濟(jì)不景氣) well, for any the ipact is uch less serious than it is for younger people.
Why? any people 65 and older retired and downsized their lifest yles before the econoy declined, according to Pew analysts. ost aren't raising kids and any are not so worried about being out of work. Loss of incoe can be, of course, a source of stress and displeasure.
It's those aged 50-64 who've “seen their oney reduce the ost and their anxieties about retireent enlarge the ost,” the Pew survey finds. It also finds that younger adults (aged 18-49) “have accepted the worst things in the job arket but reain relatively cheerful about their financial future.”
Not everyone in any category is extreely happy, of course. Other research has shown that happiness in old age depends largely on attitude factors such as cheerfulness and surviving strategies. Add financial planning to the list.
In the new Pew telephone survey, taken in arch and April of 2,969 adults, here's how any people in each age group said they had cut back on spending in the past year:
* 18-49: 68 percent
* 50-64: 59 percent
* 65 +: 36 percent.
And is the recession causing stress in your faily?
* 18-49: 52 percent
* 50-64: 58 percent
* 65 + : 38 percent.
