Just a few minutes later,I heard my daughter shouting,“Dad!The bear is right behind us!” An aggressive bear will usually rush forward to frighten away its enemy but would suddenly stop at the last minute.This one was silent and its ears pinned backthe sign of an animal that is going in for the kill.And it was a cold April day.The bear behaved abnormally,probably because of hunger. I held my camera tripod (三脚架)in both hands to form a barrier as the bear rushed into me.Its huge head was level with my chest and shoulders,and the tripod stuck across its mouth.It bit down and I found myself supporting its weight.I knew I would not be able to hold it for long. Even so,this was a fight I had to win: I was all that stood between the bear and my family,who would stand little chance of running faster than a brown bear. The bear hit at the camera,cutting it off the tripod.I raised my left arm to protect my face;the beast held tightly on the tripod and pressed it into my side.My arm could not move,and I sensed that my bones were going to break. Drawing back my free hand,I struck the bear as hard as I could for five to six times.The bear opened its mouth and I grasped its fur,trying to push it away.I was actually wrestling (扭打)with the bear at this point.Then,as suddenly as it had begun,the fight ended.The bear moved back toward the forest,before returning for another attack.The first time I felt panic.Apparently satisfied that we caused no further threat,the bear moved off,destroying a fence as it went.My arm was injured,but the outcome for us could hardly have been better.Im proud that my family remained clear-headed when panic could have led to a very different outcome. 【语篇解读】这是一篇记叙文。作者讲述和家人一起在拍鸟时遇上一只饥肠辘辘的熊的惊险 历程,幸好全家人在遇到危险时保持镇定,最终熊一无所获地走开了。 24.The whole text is mainly arranged in.

None of these are traditionally seen as positive descriptions,even if you like geese.In a culture of go- getting high achievers,shy people dont come first.Or thats what the self-help industry would have you believe.Bookshops are filled with vital tomes(大部头书籍)that promise to help beat social fears and find success in life,love and business.That is why one book,Shrinking Violets: A Field Guide to Shyness,bucks the trend.It became a sudden success across English-language media recently for its new take-on shyness. Author Joe Moran says that despite struggling with shyness and longing for loneliness all his life,being shy can also be “a gift”.Freed from the constant urge to participate and compete in social situations,people are liberated to look at the world in new ways,and gain fresh insights. Indeed,many of the worlds great thinkers and artists are introverts(内向的人).Scientists Charles Darwin and Albert Einstein preferred their own company;actress Keira Knightley often finds herself tongue-tied at parties;and Harry Potter author J.K. Rowling claims she used to be too nervous to even borrow a pen. Moran told BBC Future, “I think shyness probably does turn you into an amateur anthropologist(人类 学家),reallyyou are more likely to be an observer.” So,while extroverts make all the noise,they dont necessarily have the best ideas. If youre shy,
