In the village where I grew up, everyone knew an old man, who lived a simply life and spent all his time painting. The villagers used to admiring his works and he often gave his paintings to his friends. Whenever he was offered money, he would not take them. He said he painted for a pleasure. He once gave one of his paintings to my father, whom actually wasn’t interested in art. Years later I found it in our old house. By that time the old man has died and people started to recognize his paintings as great works of art, which was worth lots of money. An art gallery made me an offer of $5,000 for this painting and I nearly sold it, so then I decided not to. It always reminds me my childhood and of the old man who didn’t really want to make money by paint.

But national parks are not only for animals. In mid-2015, China started to build pilot national parks in nine provinces. 4. most famous one is the Sanjiangyuan national park on the Qinghai-Tibet Plateau. It aims to protect China’s water source. Sanjiangyuan, or “Source of Three Rivers”, is 5. the Yellow, Yangtze, and Lancang rivers start.
Before this national park project, China had set 6. thousands of nature parks, forests and scenic areas as protected areas. However, they haven’t been managed well 7. too many different organizations have been involved in the protection of the different areas, according to the China Daily. Under the new plan, national parks will cover big areas and include different protected areas.
For example, the habitats of wild pandas lie in different provinces and 8. (cut) into even smaller pieces by railways, roads and power lines. This makes isolated panda groups more open to 9. (dangerous). The panda national park will cover all the habitats and make the protection of animals as comprehensive as possible.
But this increased protection doesn’t mean national parks will shut their doors to humans. Instead, the new system will offer people a chance to 10. (deep) feel nature.

I can never forget Mr. Green. He taught eighth-grade . On the first day of class, he gave us a lecture about a creature called the cattywampus, an ill-adapted nocturnal (夜间活动的) animal that during the Ice Age. He passed around a skull (头骨) as he talked. We all took notes and later had a quiz.
When he my paper, I was shocked. There was a big red × through of my answers. I had failed. There had to be some mistake! I had written down exactly what Mr. Green said. Then I realized that everyone in the class had . What had happened?
Very simple, Mr. Green explained. He had made up all the stuff about the cattywampus. There had never been any such animal. The information in our notes was , , incorrect. Did we expect for incorrect answers?
Needless to say, we were extremely . What kind of test was that? And what kind of teacher?
We have figured it out, Mr. Green said. After all, at the very moment he was passing around the cattywampus skull(in truth, a cat’s), hadn't he been telling us that no trace of the animal ? He had described its amazing night vision, the color of its fur and a number of other facts he couldn't have known. He had given the animal a ridiculous name, and we still hadn't been suspicious. The zeroes on papers would be recorded in his grade book, he said. And they .
Mr. Green said he hoped we would learn something from this experience. Teachers and textbooks are not to be trusted . In fact, no one is. He told us not to let our minds go to sleep, and to if we ever thought he or the textbook was wrong.
I haven't made any great scientific , but Mr. Green’s class gave me and my classmates something just as important: the to look people in the eye and tell them they are .

Cancer is a terrible disease. Every year in the UK, more than 330,000 people get cancer, and doctors usually use a kind of therapy called radiotherapy to treat people. This treatment uses high energy X-rays to destroy the disease, but the effects of treatment can be nearly as bad as the cancer. As the X-rays destroy the cancer cells, they also damage healthy cells that are next to them. It’s like using a shotgun to kill an insect. When really important parts of a person’s body are hurt by the X-ray energy, it can have very bad results. It can also make more cancer grow in the damaged places in the future.
A new therapy that uses protons(质子) instead of X-ray energy could be the answer to the problem. In a project called PRaVDA, scientists from the UK and South Africa are working to this. If X-ray energy is like a shotgun, then protons can work more like a laser. Scientists can make protons travel through someone’s body without hurting them, and only damage the cancer.
The PRaVDA scientists use computers to make a 3-D model of the cancer cells to make sure the protons go to the right places. “It’s more accurate,” said Michaela Esposito, PhD, from the University of Lincoln.
Building this technology was very difficult, though. Professor Nigel Allinson from the University of Lincoln, the project leader, has put together a team of many different kinds of scientists with different skills. Those skills were all needed to make what he calls “one of the most complex” medical machines ever. It’s also 10 times more expensive than X-ray radiotherapy. Even so, Allinson believes that most cancer treatment will be done by protons in the future. “I think it will improve the quality of life of many cancer patients,” he says.

3.According to Professor Allinson, the new therapy ________.
A. will enable cancer patients to enjoy a better life
