Taking care of animals is hard. You have to put in a lot of time and effort. But to me it is worth it. Last August I worked on my uncle’s farm. I had just finished unbuckling(解开) the cows, and we had to let the cows across the road. I had just opened the gate, and to my surprise, all 102 cows were scattered (散开). A quarter of them were in the road and the
other three quarters had disappeared into the corn-fields. I ran to tell
my uncle. We started getting the ones out of the road. Then I entered the cornfield. Now I really realized how difficultthis was going to be. My head was pounding and I was very nervous. The hot weather didn't
make it any easier. I was breathing heavily. It seemed that it took 20 minutes to find one cow in the corn_field,
which was huge and seemed like a never-ending maz(迷宫), I kept chugging, but I wasn’t about to give up. I slowlystarted to drive the cows out, a few at a time. I took it forever. I thought it was ne
ver going to end
Evenifyou could pick up the cows tracks, it was still hard to find them in the huge corn-field.whenwe were down the last few, I was relieve(感到宽慰). It take us probably two hours and fifty minutes to get them all out. I hope that never happens again, though I love animals and farming. 照顾动物是很难的。你必须投入大量的时间和精力。但对我来说，这是值得的。去年八月我曾在我叔叔的农场。我刚刚解开（解开）牛，我们必须让牛穿过马路。我刚把门打开，让我惊奇的是，所有的102头奶牛进行分散（散开）。四分之一是在道路和其他三个小区已经消失在了农田。我跑去告诉我的叔叔。我们开始的路的。然后我进入麦田。现在我真的意识到这是多么困难的是要。我的头被重击，我很紧张。炎热的天气并不能使它更容易。我呼吸急促。看来，用20分钟找到一头牛在三门峡地区玉米田，这是巨大的，似乎是一个永无止境的迷宫（迷宫），我一直缓慢，但我不想放弃，我慢慢开始把那些牛了，几次。我把它永远。我认为这是永远不会结束。即使你可以挑选母牛的轨道，但仍然很难找到他们在巨大的三门峡地区玉米田。当我们在下几，我松了一口气（感到宽慰）。我们花了大概两个小时和五十分钟，让他们都从。我希望不会再发生，尽管我爱动物和农
三、阅读理解
1.It seems that great artists and scientists often suffer from mental （精神的） problems. Both Einstein
and Dickens had mental illness. Now scientists have started to look at whether mental illness and genius are linked.
Dr Adele Juda studied 5，000 creative people in Germany. She found there were more people with mental illness in this group than in the general population. Poets had the highest rate （比例） of mental illness，
followed by musicians， with lower numbers for painters and architects.
Other scientists did research which also showed a strong link between mental problems and creativity.
But， it did nothing to explain it.
Dr Ruth Richards of Harvard University made a breakthrough. Instead of studying creative people， she
took a group of psychiatric （精神病的） patients and tested them for creativity. The patients got much
higher scores than a normal group. Also， the patients' close relatives were much more creative than the
patients and a normal group. This suggests that the key to the link between creativity and mental illness
is in our genes. But this is a problem. According to Darwinism， harmful genes should be removed. Some
scientists believe that evolution （进化） has created a balance， where the madness of a few people leads to the development of the whole human race.
Geniuses may be mad， bad or just difficult to understand， but their discoveries have improved the world we live in. It seems that a little creative madness is good for us all.
看来，伟大的艺术家和科学家往往患有精神问题。爱因斯坦狄更斯有精神疾病。现在科学家已经开始看是否有精神疾病和天才有联系的。阿黛勒博士研究了5000个创意犹大人在德国。她发现，有更多的人的心理 疾病这一组中比在总人口中。诗人有率最高的精神疾病，其次是音乐家，低数量的画家和建筑师。其他科学家的研究也显示出强大的精神之间的关系问题和创造力。但是，它并没有解释它。鲁思博士理查兹哈佛大学取得突破。而不是学习的创意人，她带着一群精神病患者和测试他们的创造力。患者多了较高的分数比正常组。此外，患者近亲属更有创意比患者和正常组。这表明，关键的创造性和精神疾病之间的联系 在我们的基因。但这是一个问题。根据进化论，应删除有害基因。一些科学家认为进化创造了平衡，在少数人的疯狂引导对整个人类的发展。天才也许是疯狂的，坏的或难以理解，但他们的发现有改善 我们生活的世界。看来，一个有创意的疯狂我们每个人都是有益的
