When I was in the 6th grade, my parents bought me a cell phone. I was really exciting to receive the phone. The next weekend, my family went on camping in the East Lake Park. We enjoy boating on the lake. I used our new phone to play some of my favorite song. I thought it would be brilliant idea to put my phone in a plastic bag to protecting it from water. After getting back, I took the phone in, only to find the bag full of water. I didn’t know what to save my phone and I tried laying it out to dry. Unfortunately, it started to rain. What an awfully experience!

Many people struggle with saying “No”. 1. Remember, just because you can do something does not mean it is required. Understand you always have a right to turn down an invitation or refuse a favor and figure out the best ways to say “No”. Here are some specific tips.
Give yourself permission to say no. Many people have an immediate reaction to say “Yes” when they’re asked to do someone a favor. Keep in mind，you are never required to say “Yes”. It’s actually okay to say “No” sometimes. Accept this as you prepare to say “No” to someone. 2.
Set up your personal boundaries.3. However, that reason does not have to be concrete. Many people think if they can do something, they should. Your reason for saying “No” can be a simple matter of your own personal boundaries. Think about what boundaries you have, and accept the fact you’re allowed to stay true to them.
4. People often won’t take “No” for an answer. If you say “No” to someone，they may give you various reasons to try and change your mind. Stay determined for your decision and do not give in easily.
Practice saying “ No”. It may sound silly, but you can actually practice saying “ No”alone. 5. Practice giving a firm “No” to someone so you get comfortable with the words. Many people are nervous about saying “ No ” and may say “Yes” due to anxiety. Practicing can help get rid of some of this anxiety.
A. This will help you say “No” with ease.
B. Be aware of potential persuasion techniques.
C. Find a good chance to stand in front of a crowd.
D. It’s always easier to say “No” if you have a reason.
E. Try standing before a mirror and looking at yourself.
F. It’s rather easy for you to set up your personal boundaries.
G. If someone asks you a favor，you may feel you have to say “Yes”.
While elephants born without tusks (长牙)are not unheard of，they normally form just 2 to 6 percent of the population. However, that is not the case at Mozambique’s Gorongosa National Park, where an astonishing 33 percent of female elephants born after the country’s civil war ended in 1992 are tuskless. While that may appear to be just a coincidence, Joyce Poole, an elephant behavior expert, has another theory. The researcher thinks we may be witnessing unnatural evolution of the species due to the constant hunting of elephants for valuable ivory.
Poole says before the country’s 15-year-long civil war, the 100,000—acre park was home to over 4,000 elephants. However, by the time the conflict ended in 1992, about 90 percent of them had been killed for ivory to help finance weapons (武器)and meat to feed the soldiers. Of the less than 200 survivors, over 50 percent of adult females had no tusks. Therefore, it is not surprising that the park’s tuskless elephant population has grown greatly.
This is not the first time researchers have observed a great change in the population of elephants. At Zambia’s South Luangwa National Park and Lupande Game Management Area， areas which were heavily hunted in the 1970s and 1980s, 35% of elephants 25 years or older and 13% of those younger than 25 are now without tusks. A 2008 study published in the African Journal of Ecology found that the number of tuskless females at the Ruaha National Park in Tanzania went from 10.5 percent in 1969 to almost 40 percent in 1989, largely due to illegal hunting for ivory.
The recent ban on ivory in both the US and China should help get rid of, or at least reduce, elephant hunting. However, scientists are not sure how long it will take for elephants with a higher rate of tuskless females, to change the trend.
1.What is the probable cause of the phenomenon mentioned in Paragraph 1 ?
A. Illegal hunting. B. Constant farming.
C. A pure coincidence. D. Natural evolution.
2.Why did people kill so many elephants during the civil war in Mozambique?
A. To get funds by selling ivory. B. To develop new weapons.
C. To provide food for local people. D. To make ivory products.
3.Which of the following had the earliest record on tuskless elephants?
A. Gorongonsa National Park. B. South Luangwa National Park.
C. The Ruaha National Park. D. Lupande Game Management Area.
4.What does the underlined phrase “the trend”in the last paragraph refer to?
A. Elephants facing greater danger.
B. Elephants growing more slowly.
C. Fewer female elephants staying alive.
D. More female elephants being tuskless.
