That might sound like an impossible dream, but Bexlerturned it into a reality.In December 2015, he, together with a team of Australian and American scientists,adventured into a rain forest on the island of New Guinea. They were the first people ever toenter the region. "As we were dropped on the ground by helicopter, we found no trails anywhere;it was really hard to get around," Bexler says.Within minutes of landing, the team spotted a black chicken-like bird. The scientists soondetermined that the creature was a type of honeyeater-the first new bird species to be sighted onNew Guinea in 60years. The honeyeater wasn't the only surprise for them. They discovered morethan 40previously unknown plant and animal species. "We were like kids in a candy store,"Bexler recalls. "Everywhere we looked, we saw amazing things we had never seen before."The newfound species didn't shy away from the scientists. Two long-nosed echidnas even let thevisitors pick them up and take them back to camp to study them. Bexler thinks the animalsweren't scared because they had never seen humans before. He explains, "This area givesscientists a place where they can study the behaviours of animals that have not yet learned to beafraid of people."Bexler and his team did not have enough time to study the area completely. "We justscratched the surface," Bexler says. "Anyone who goes there will come back with a mystery."21. Which word can best describe Bruce Bexler?A. Adventurous. B. Cautious.


C. Optimistic. D. Reliable.22. What does the underlined sentence suggest in the third paragraph?A. They enjoyed the experience of being in a candy store.B. They were very excited about what they discovered.C. They were misbehaving like naughty children.D. Their next search might help them get sugar.23. Why did the long-nosed echidnas allow the scientists to take them back for their study?A. The scientists were very friendly to them.B. The scientists were skilled in handling animals.C. They had been well-trained by the local people.D. They had never been threatened by people.24. We can infer from Bexler's words in the last paragraph that ________.A. the scientists have learned enough about the deep rain forestB. the area is likely to keep untouched in the futureC. more unknown plants and animals are to be discovered thereD. whoever goes there can uncover the mystery of the forestB My husband hasn't stopped laughing about a funny thing that happened to me. It's funny nowbut it wasn't at the time. Last Friday, after doing all the family shopping in town, I wanted a rest before catching thetrain, so I bought a newspaper and some chocolate and went into the station coffee shop - thatwas a cheap self-service place with long tables to sit at. I put my heavy bag down on the floor,put the newspaper and chocolate on the table to keep a place, and went to get a cup of coffee. When I went back with the coffee, there was someone in the next seat. It was one of thosewild-looking youngsters, with dark glasses and worn clothes, and hair colored bright red at thefront. Not so unusual these days. What did surprise me was that he'd started to eat my chocolate! Naturally, I was annoyed. However, to avoid trouble - and really I was rather uneasy abouthim - I just looked down at the front page of the newspaper, tasted my coffee and took a bit ofchocolate. The boy looked at me closely. Then he took a second piece of my chocolate. I couldhardly believe it. Still I didn't dare to start an argument. When he took a third piece, I felt moreangry than uneasy. I thought, "Well, I shall have the last piece." And I got it. The boy gave me a strange look, and then stood up. As he left he shouted out. "This woman'scrazy!" Everyone stared. That was embarrassing enough, but it was worse when I finished mycoffee and got ready to leave. My face went red - as red as his hair - when I realized I'd madea mistake. It wasn't my chocolate that he'd been taking. There was mine, unopened, just under
