27、e Free Library concept years ago on vacation. The concept of free literature-sharing boxes posted in neighborhoods and public spaces hooked me. For a booklover, this represented bliss（快乐）. At home, my bedside table sprouts（长出）books and from the floor rises a mountainous to-be-read pile. My husband w

28、asnt the least bit surprised when I suggested starting our own Little Free Library- As a writer and introvert（内向的人）, I welcomed the idea of saying hello to other booklovers on occasion.The following winter, my husband built a copy of our Irish garden shed（棚屋）with a framed glass door on the front and

29、, in the spring, mounted（安装）it on a post in front of our house. We filled the shelves with books, and since then, visitors have refilled them with literary fiction, romances, mysteries, science fiction, cowboy westerns, young-adult fiction, poetry, how-tos, self-help and a range of other nonfiction.

30、For a time after COVID-19 first struck, public libraries shut down, and Amazon prioritized the delivery of essential and high-demand items. Books were less easily attained. Traffic to our library increased. I posted reminders about handwashing, and still, readers kept coming.We wondered if we should

31、 close the Little Free Library and revisited（再次讨论）our original motivations for hosting it: to facilitate the exchange of books, to create a sense of community. Reading provides the necessary relief to the emotional crush（压力）of life. With this in mind, we added a written reminder on staying safe in t

32、he library.Through my teens, reading transported me to other places and eras. Books taught me about life and how people overcame adversity（逆境）. I no longer felt alone in the things I struggled against.Aside from the entertainment books offer, studies show that reading exposes us to other cultures an

33、d perspectives. Literature sheds light on the justice to be found in social inclusion and community cohesion（凝聚）. Self-esteem and understanding grow in equal measure as we come to understand ourselves and our place in the world.During this pandemic, the Little Free Library has reinforced the importa

38、perspectives.DIt has helped create a united and cohesive community.Researchers studying animal behaviour have recently started noticing something unusual. Some animals were observed to be eating plants that are not part of their normal diet and have no nutritional value. They ate these plants at onl

39、y some times of the year while other animals in the group did not eat the same plants. What can account for this odd behaviour?The researchers believe that these animals are giving themselves medicine. These plants can make the animals feel better, kill parasites(寄生虫)or aid in digestion. Many differ

40、ent animals have been observed acting in this way. Some chimps in a nature reserve in Tanzania had parasites which caused them stomach upsets. They were seen chewing and swallowing the leaves containing special medicines. These leaves were rough with sharp spikes sticking out. Scientists think that

41、these rough leaves were eaten to clean out the insides of the chimps stomachs so that the parasites would be killed.Other examples of animals self-medicating include lizards which respond to the bite of a venomous(有毒的)snake by eating a special root that can counter(对抗)the poison, and macaw birds(金刚鹦

42、鹉)that eat clay to aid in digestion and kill bacteria. Pregnant elephants have been known to eat the leaves of some trees as a way of speeding up the delivery of their babies.How did animals learn this behaviour? The most obvious answer is that animals learnt by experience. For example, a gorilla on

43、ce felt ill, ate some leaves and then felt better the next day. It remembered this and passed on this information to the rest of the group and its children. But what about creatures that are less intelligent? Scientists studying the monarch butterfly(黑脉金斑蝶)noticed that some healthy butterflies laid

44、eggs on the milkweed plant which has anti-parasite properties. These eggs produced strong healthy butterflies compared to the ones hatched on plants that do not have such medicinal benefits. Over time the weaker butterflies produced fewer eggs and the healthy butterflies thrived(茁壮成长). This is an ex

45、ample of natural selection.If we can learn from animals using plants to heal and protect themselves naturally, we too might gain medicinal benefits.46In writing Paragraph 1, the author aims to _.Abring up a topicBreach a conclusionCmake a comparisonDpropose a definition47What can we learn from the p
