Spacing in Animals 1.Any observant person has noticed that a wild animal will allow a man or other potential enemy to approach only up to a given distance before it flees.“Flight distance“ is the terms used for this interspecies spacing.As a general rule, there is a positive relationship between the size of an animal and its flight distance—the larger the animal, the greater the distance it must keep between itself and the enemy.An antelope will flee when the enemy is as much as five hundred yards a-way.The wall lizard’s flight distance, on the other hand, is about six feet.Flight is the basic means of survival for mobile creatures. 2.Critical distance apparendy is present wherever and whenever there is a flight reaction.“Critical distance“ includes the narrow zone separating flight distance from attack distance.A lion in a zoo will flee from an approaching man until it meets a barrier that it cannot overcome.If the man continues the approach, he soon penetrates the lion’s critical distance, at which point the cornered lion reverses direction and begins slowly to stalk the man. 3.Social animals need to stay in touch with each other.Loss of contact with the group can be fatal for a variety of reasons including exposure to enemies.Social distance is not simply the distance at which an animal will lose contact with his group—that is, the distance at which it can no longer see, hear, or smell the group—it is rather a psychological distance, one at which the animal apparently begins to feel anxious when he exceeds its limits.We can think of it as a hidden band that contains the group. 4.Social distance varies from species to species.It is quite short—apparently only a few yards— among some animals, and quite long among others. 5.Social distance is not always rigidly fixed but is determined in part by the situation.When the young of apes and humans are mobile but not yet under control of the mother’s voice, social distance may be the length of her reach.This is readily observed among the baboons in a zoo.When the baby approaches a certain point, the mother reaches out to seize the end of its tail and pull it back to her.When added control is needed because of danger, social distance shrinks.To show this in man, one has only to watch a family with a number of small children holding hands as they cross a busy street. A.Philosophical distance B.Flight distance C.Social distance is determined in part by the situation D.Critical distance E.Social distance F.Physical distance

Finding a Job At sixteen Ron Mackie might have stayed at school, but the future called to him excitedly.“Get out of the classroom into a job, “ it said, and Ron obeyed. His father, supporting the decision , found a place for him in a supermarket.” You’re lucky, Ron,“ he said.” For every boy with a job these days, there’s a dozen without.” So Ron joined the working world at twenty pounds a week. For a year he spent his days filling shelves with tins of food.By the end of that time he was looking back on his school days as a time of great variety and satisfaction.He searched for an interest in his work, with little success. One fine day instead of going to work Ron got a lift on a lorry going south.With nine pounds in his pocket, a full heart and a great longing for the sea, he set out to make a better way for himself.That evening, in Bournemouth, he had a sandwich and a drink in a cafe run by an elderly man and his wife.Before he had finished the sandwich, the woman had taken him on for the rest of the summer, at twenty pounds a week, a room upstairs and three meals a day.The ease and speed of it rather took Ron’s breath away.At quiet times Ron had to check the old man’s arithmetic in the records of the business. At the end of the season, he stayed on the coast. He was again surprised how straightforward it was for a boy of seventeen to make a living. He worked in shops mostly, but once he took a job in a hotel for three weeks. Late in October he was taken on by the sick manager of a shoe shop.Ron soon found himself in charge there;he was the only one who could keep the books.

Rising Tuition in the US Every spring,US university administrators gather to discuss the next academic year’s budget. They consider faculty salaries,utility costs for dormitories,new building.needs and repairs to old ones.They run the numbers and conclude—it seems,inevitably—that,yet again,the cost of tuition must go up. According to the US’s College Board, the price of attending a four-year private university in the US rose 81 percent between 1993 and 2004.【B1】______In 2005 and 2006,the numbers continued to rise. According to university officials, college cost increases are simply the result of balancing university checkbooks.“Tuition increases at Cedarville University are determined by our revenue needs for each year, “said the university’s president,Dr.Bill Brown.“Student tuition pays for 78 percent of the university’s operating costs.“ Brown’s school is a private university that enrolls about 3,100 undergrads and is consistently recognized by annual college ranking guides like US News and World Report’s and The Princeton Review’s.【B2】______ Tuition at private universities is set by administration officials and then sent for approval to the school’s board of trustees (董事) .【B3】______This board oversees (监管) state’s public institutions. John Durham,assistant secretary to the board of trustees at East Carolina University(ECU), explains that state law says that public institutions must make their services available whenever possible to the people of the state for free.Durham said that North Carolina residents only pay 22 percent of the cost of their education.【B4】______State residents attending ECU pay about US $ 10,000 for tuition, room and board before financial aid. Amid the news about continued increases in college costs, however, there is some good news.Tuition increases have been accompanied by roughly equal increases in financial aid at almost every university.To receive financial aid,US students complete a formal application with the federal government.The federal government then decides whether an applicant is eligible (有资格的)for grants or loans【B5】______ A.The application is then sent to the student’s university, where the school itself will decide whether free money will be given to the student and how much. B.At public universities, however, tuition increases must also be approved by a state education committee, sometimes called the board of governors. C.The school currently charges US $23 ,410 a year for tuition. D.Many American people are simply unable to pay the growing cost of food. E.That’s more than double the rate of inflation. F.The state government covers the rest.
