More than anything else in the world, Lion liked being King of the jungle. He walked around, showing off his power and pride.
Each day Lion took a ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )long lazy sleep under the shade of his favourite tree. He always dreamed of weaker animals bowing(鞠躬) before him.
One day Mouse ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )ran through the jungle and tripped over Lion’s huge paws. Lion woke up with a start. “How dare you wake me up! ” he shouted angrily. Lion grabbed Mouse with one paw. “On the second thought, I’m in the mood for the snack, and you’ll make a delicious meal.”, he said.
Mouse cried out, “K ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )ing Lion, please spare(饶恕) me! If you let me live, I’ll always remember your kindness. And, some day, I might be able to help you.”
“ How could such a ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )powerless little mouse ever help me ” That thought made Lion laugh so much that he decided to let Mouse go. A week later, Lion was walking through the jungle on the way to his favourite tree when he stepped onto a hunter’s net. The net scooped him up. No matter how he twisted and turned, he couldn’t escape.
When Mouse heard Lio ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )n’s frightened shouts, he raced to help. Mouse quickly chewed(咬)through the ropes to make a hole in the net. Soon, Lion moved out and was free. Lion looked down at the little mouse. “Thank you for saving my life,” said Lion, smiling his widest smile. “I was mistaken. You are not a powerless little mouse. You are a great friend!”

A new report says more ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com ) and more international students are attending colleges and universities in the United States. It also notes a large increase in the number of international students from China.
These findings are from the latest Open Doors Report. The report documents the record number of international students in the United States during 2012, 2013 school year. It says more than seven hundred sixty-four thousand four-hundred such students were attending American colleges and universities during the last two years. That represents an increase of almost six percent than one year earlier.
On the other hand, ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com ) the number of Americans studying overseas (海外) increased by one percent, which reached nineteen thousand this year.
The report says one ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com ) hundred ninety-four thousand students at American colleges and universities were from
China. That is an increase of more than twenty-three percent over the year before. Peggy Blumenthal, an expert(专家) of international education, described the effect of the increase in Chinese students.
"Now they have been ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )coming for some time. But this year was the highest level ever." She says many Chinese families are able to pay for the highest-quality education for their children. The children mainly choose to study in America.
"We know many of ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )them have enough income to be able to afford to send them anywhere in the world that they want to go. And for the most part, looking around the world, Chinese students still prefer to come to the United States as their choice."
Chinese students a ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )re not the only ones who want to attend American colleges and universities. After China, India sends the second largest number of students to the United States for higher education. India has about one hundred thousand students in American schools. South Korea is third with about seventy two thousand students.
Why do so many fore ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )ign students study in the United States Peggy Blumenthal provides one reason.
"The advantage America has is that we have a huge system and a very perfect system. So there are over four thousand universities and colleges in the United States. Among them are some top ones in the world, and what that tells us is there is still a lot of room to host international students."
Foreign studen ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )ts represent less than four percent of the total student population in American higher education. And from Learning English, that's the VOA Special English Education Report. I'm Bob Doughty. Thanks for listening.
( ) 36. Bob Doughty seems to be ________.
A. an exchang ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )e student from the USA B. an expert of international education
C. a viewer of VOA D. a reporter from VOA

China's first moon ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )rover (月球车), Yutu, set off from the lander early on December 15, several hours after the Chang'e-3 probe (探测器) soft-landed on the moon surface.
The 140 kg six-wheeled rover touched the moon surface at 4:35 a.m., leaving deep lines on the loose moon land. This was recorded by the camera on the lander and the images were sent to the earth, according to the Beijing Aerospace Control Center. After that, the rover and lander will take photos of each other and start their own science explorations.
Earlier this morning, engineers made final checks of the environment of the landing area and the situation of the probe. Yutu, reached its solar panel (光板) and started to drive slowly to the moon at 3:10 a.m.. It took Yutu nearly a whole hour to complete the simple task.
Chang'e-3 landed ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )at the Bay of Rainbows on the moon, at 9:11 p.m. on December 14, making China the
third country in the world to carry out such a mission (执行此类任务) after the United States and Russia.
In old Chinese tal ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )es, Yutu was the white pet rabbit of Chang'e’s. The name for the rover was selected following an online survey that collected several million votes from people around the world.
The rover, 1.5 meters long with its two wings folded (折叠), 1 m in width and 1.1 m in height, is a perfect robot controlled by the command center from the earth. It will face challenges including temperature differences of more than 300℃ on the moon.
Yutu will do some r ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )esearch and look for natural resources (资源) for three months, while the lander will conduct an exploration at the landing place for one year. Then they will have a good rest on the moon and will not be used for a long time until China’s next probe visits the moon again.

四、任务型阅读。(每空一词,10分)
Do you know ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )that a student can produce up to 240 pounds of school waste and lots of waste gas during a term This includes transportation, food, paper, pens, pencils and so on.
Transportation
Many parents like ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com ) driving their kids to school every day. We all know waste gas from cars is a main cause of air pollution. If parents who live in a neighborhood can take turns to drive their kids to school each day, that’ll be better. Another way of going green is to walk to school if students live near it.
Food
It is surprising ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com ) that only one primary school could produce up to 19,000 pounds of lunch waste each year. That is only one school. One way to help take care of the environment is to stop using plastic bags. There are all kinds of environmental boxes for students to put their food in.
Paper, pens and pencils
A lot of paper is ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com ) thrown away by American students. They throw away about 1.6 billion pens every year. They waste many pens and the chemicals of them are bad for the environment. Much more pencils are thrown away than pens. Pencils are made of trees, so if more pencils are thrown away, more trees will be cut down. So students should reuse paper, pens and pencils instead of throwing them away.
Backpacks
As fashion co ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )mes and goes, almost every kid needs a new backpack every year. They can save a lot of money and materials(材料)if they reuse the same schoolbags.
Students and the environment
Transportation If possible, pa ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )rents i ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )n a neighborhood should take__47___ to drive their kids to school each day.Students can go to school on _48___if their homes are not __49_ from their school

“Mum, I hate you ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com ). I don't need a new schoolbag or clothes. I'm not afraid of being hit by you. I only want you to come back. ”
When Chen Jiuying ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com ) read her daughter's letter, she couldn't help crying. Chen and her husband are now working far away from their hometown. Their daughter, Xiao Li, is looked after by her grandparents. Like Chen, many migrant workers(外来务工人员) are dreaming about a better life, so they have to leave their children behind.
According to a s ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )urvey, there are now about 61 million left-behind children(留守儿童) in poor areas in China. This has brought many problems. These children care little about ot hers. They do not do well at school. They lose confidence .
Luckily, many Chin ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )ese are now thinking about the life of the left-behind children and actions have been taken to help solve the problem.
A charity e ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )vent took place in Beijing before Children's Day. Its aim was to raise social awareness(意识) of left -behind children. The event was held to raise money from businesses and the public to prepare “love bags”. Inside the bags, these are things for children, including books, torches, and envelopes(信封) and stamps so that children can write to their parents.
The event was ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )started by Chen Weihong, a television host in China. “The left --behind children don't have enough parental love and family care. They need to be in touch with their parents. We hope our love bags will help them communicate with their parents, and make them happier, ” he said.
