The native people of Australia are called Aborigines. Most of them live in the deserts of Australia, where they neither plant crops nor keep any animals. All the year round they move here and there through the deserts in search of food and water. They must depend on their own skills to track down (搜寻) wild animals for food in order to stay alive. It has been said that an Aborigine has the “eyes of an eagle (鹰)”.
The following story shows how surprising the Aborigines’ skill at tracking is.
Once a gold robbery in a small Australian town left the police quite puzzled (困惑的). They had to call on an old Aborigine tracker for help. The tracker found a set of footprints in the dusty street, and said he thought they were the tracks of the thief. Before the tracker could follow the prints very far, a rainstorm broke and washed the tracks away. Some time after that, the Aborigine was in another town, and his sharp eyes picked out the same footprints he had seen days before. The police could hardly believe his story, but they went with him as he followed the tracks through the dirty streets and past the outskirts (市郊) of the town. After about half an hour’s walk, the tracker stopped near a wooden house and simply pointed. Sure enough, the wanted man was hiding inside.

B
Everyone had their friends, but I knew one girl who didn’t. I guess you could call her a geek, because all she did was read, study, and do homework. I don’t think she even played a sport. She was one of those quiet people who no one really paid attention to, and those who was often laughed at. I had heard all kinds of rumors (谣言) that she had problems, but I didn’t really believe them.
My friends and I were nice to her. We let her sit at our lunch table and we often said “Hi” to her, but she wasn’t our best friend. Throughout the year, she started talking to us more and more. We continued being kind to her. She was normal as far as I was concerned (就我而言). She was just really quiet.
During the summer holidays I got a letter from her. It read, “I just wanted to thank you so much for being so extremely kind and friendly to me this year. Before you became my friend, I had no one to talk to or sit with at lunch. I didn’t think anyone wanted me around. I even wanted to kill myself because of this. But you and your friends changed that. You made me feel wanted. It meant so much to me. I am going to be moving and going to another school next year. I’ll never forget you and what you did.”
By the time I finished the letter, I was in shock. I could not believe what I had just read. I learned that the simplest things and the smallest acts of kindness can mean the world to someone else.

A.sea water temperature rise
B.diseases spreading around the world
