This little South American Magellanic penguin swims 5，000 miles, to a beach in Brazil,
every year in order to be reunited with the man who saved its life. It sounds like something out of
a fairy tale, but it's true!
The 71yearold retired bricklayer Joao, who lives in an island village just outside Rio de
Janeiro, Brazil, found the small Magellanic penguin lying on rocks at his local beach in 2011. The
penguin was covered in oil and running out of time fast. Joao rescued the penguin, naming it Din
Din, cleaned the oil off its feathers and fed him a daily diet of fish to rebuild its strength. After a
week of recovery, Joao attempted to release the penguin back into the wild. However, Din Din had
already formed a family bond with his rescuer and wouldn't leave.
“He stayed with me for 11 months and then, just after he changed his coat with new
feathers, he disappeared，” Joao recalls. “I love the penguin like it's my own child and I
believe the penguin loves me，” Joao told Globo. “No one else is allowed to touch him. He
pecks (啄) them if they do. He lies on my lap, lets me give him showers, and allows me to feed
him.”
Professor Krajewski, a biologist who interviewed the fisherman for Globo, told The
Independent, “I have never seen anything like this before. I think the penguin believes Joao is
part of his family and probably a penguin as well.”
However, environmentalists warn that, while hundreds of the Magellanic species are known
to naturally migrate (迁徙) thousands of miles north in search of food, there has been a worrying
rise in the phenomenon of oceanic creatures washed up on Brazil's beaches. Professor David Zee,
from Rio de Janeiro's State University, said the increase is due in part to global climatic changes.
Professor Zee added that sea animals face increased danger from leaked tanker oil.Luckily the ending for Joao and Din Din has been a happy one, even though it is illegal in
Brazil to keep wild animals as pets.
Professor Krajewski said, “Professionals who work with animals try to avoid relationships
like this occurring so they are able to reintroduce the animals into the wild. But in this single case
the authorities allowed Din Din to stay with Joao because of his kindness.”
1．Every year Din Din swims a long distance to a beach in Brazil to ________．
A．avoid being killed
B．meet his rescuer
C．escape from ocean currents
D．find much more fish
2．When Din Din was found in 2011, ________．
A．he was dying
B．he was running on the beach
C．he was resting on a rock
D．he was cleaning oil off his feathers
3．What do we learn about Joao from the passage?
A．He is not allowed to keep the penguin as a pet by the authorities.
B．He overprotects the penguin by keeping him away from others.
C．His contact with the penguin is encouraged by professionals.
D．His kindness wins the penguin's trust.
4．The story in the passage mainly shows ________．
A.the environmental impact on wildlife
B．the love between humans and wildlife
C．the tendency of wildlife to bond with humans
D．the protection of threatened wildlife by mankind

Go Green Without a Green Thumb
If you're anything like me, you manage to kill absolutely every plant that comes your way.
No matter how hard I try, I can't manage to keep flowers alive for more than a few days. So I've
made a list of plants that even I couldn't kill and decided to share it with everyone who also lacks
a green thumb.
1. Jade
We commonly think of jade as a beautiful stone, but it also happens to be a plant that requires
hardly any care and will give your apartment an air of elegance. There are only two things you
need to do to take care of this plant：
Water the plant when the soil becomes moderately dry.
Wipe down the leaves every once in a while to remove dust.
2. African Violet
Want to add a little color to your apartment? That can be challenging if you don't have a
green thumb—most flowering plants require tons of care. Fortunately, African violets are not one
of those plants.
Simply water them once a week and enjoy their beautiful blue, pink and purple hues! Just do
your best to avoid getting any water on the plants' leaves, as this can cause water spots (污渍)．3. Aloe
Aloe is also a plant that even the worst gardener among us can manage to keep it alive.
Step one: Acquire a plant.
Step two: Water it when the soil is completely dry, about every two to three weeks.
Note: Aloe can be poisonous to your pets. If you have pets, make sure the plants are pet-
friendly.
4. Lucky Bamboo
To bring some good fortune into your apartment, purchase some lucky bamboo. This
houseplant does best in dim lighting, so keep it away from windows. Other than that, all you need
to do is make sure the roots are always covered in water (an inch or two should do the trick)．
5．What can we learn from the text?
A．Jade is only a kind of beautiful stone.
B．You should spray (喷洒) water on the leaves of African violet.
C．Aloe is a petfriendly plant.
D．Lucky bamboo can bring good luck to you.
6．Which of the following plants needs watering frequently?
A．Jade. B．African violet.
C．Lucky bamboo. D．Aloe.
7．What is the author's purpose in writing the text?
A．To introduce several plants that require little special care.
B．To share with readers the author's opinion on growing plants.
C．To attract readers to buy some of their products on the list.
D．To call on readers to protect the environment in daily life.
