27、 Over 30 years of camping vacations, Russ Fee had never experienced or heard of a wolf attack. That changed last August while he was camping with his wife and two sons at Banff National Park. At around midnight, Fee woke to the sound of panicked voices calling for help. He knew there was another family with two sons, aged five and seven, at the next campsite, and went to investigate.
As Fee approached, he caught sight of an animal's rear legs protruding from a collapsing tent ----legs too large to belong to a dog. Fee ran up and kicked the animal. Startled, it backed out of the tent. Suddenly, Fee was standing face-to-face with a wolf. “That was a terrifying moment,” he recalls. Matt Rispoli, the neighbouring dad, jumped out of the collapsed tent covered in blood. Moments earlier, the wolf had bitten through the tent, puncturing his arm and tearing the material. Both men shouted and threw rocks at the wolf to scare it away.
The wolf backed off long enough for the Rispolis to pile into the Fees’ van. Since there was no cell service, Fee drove the family to a nearby hotel, where staff called 911. Rispoli, who only needed stitches, was grateful for Fee coming to his family’s rescue. The Park Personnel euthanized(使安乐死)the wolf later that night ---- the rare attack was likely because the wolf was near starvation.
The Fees still kept in touch with the Rispolis over Facebook and even exchanged Christmas gifts last year. “It easily could have been my family who got attacked,” says Fee. “We were all fortunate in the end.”

29、When almost everyone has a mobile phone, why are more than half of Australian homes still paying for a landline(座机)?
These days you'd be hard pressed to find anyone in Australia over the age of 15 who doesn't own a mobile phone. In fact, plenty of younger kids have one in their pocket. Practically everyone can make and receive calls anywhere, anytime.
Still, 55 percent of Australians have a landline phone at home and only just over a quarter (29%) rely only on their smartphones, according to a survey(调查). Of those Australians who still have a landline, a third concede that it's not really necessary and they're keeping it as a security blanket-19 percent say they never use it while a further 13 percent keep it in case of emergencies. I think my home falls into that category.
More than half of Australian homes are still choosing to stick with their home phone. Age is naturally a factor(因素)-only 58 percent of Generation Ys still use landlines now and then, compared to 84 percent of Baby Boomers who've perhaps had the same home number for 50 years. Age isn't the only factor; I'd say it's also to do with the makeup of your household.
Generation Xers with young families, like my wife and I, can still find it convenient to have a home phone rather than provide a mobile phone for every family member. That said, to be honest, the only people who ever ring our home phone are our Baby Boomers parents, to the point where we play a game and guess who is calling before we pick up the phone (using Caller ID would take the fun out of it).
How attached are you to your landline? How long until they go the way of gas street lamps and morning milk deliveries?
【1】What does Paragraph 2 mainly tell us about mobile phones?
A.Their various uses.
B.Their major markets.
C.Their broad popularity.
D.Their unique structure.
【2】What does the underlined word "concede" in Paragraph 3 mean?
A.Feedback.
B.Acknowledge.
C.Discuss.
D.Perceive.
【3】What can we say about Baby Boomers?
A.They continue to use landline phones.
B.They enjoy meeting the users' needs.
C.They prefer playing smartphone games.
D.They are reluctant to part with families.
【4】What can we conclude from the last paragraph?
A.It's a long way to go for landline.
B.Landline plays a great role in our life.
C.It may cost many daily expenses in the future.
D.It will fall into disuse some day.
