But rather than use methods such as live bait(诱惑物) like goats tied to trees to lure the leopards, which then fall into large pits dug by guards, officials say they have found a safer method to trap the cats.“The moos of a cow, bleating of a goat from the phone has proved effective to trap leopards,” said D. Vasani, a senior forest official in Gujarat. “This trick works.” Vasani said forest guards have downloaded the sounds of over a dozen animals as ringtones on their mobiles which they attach to speakers and fix behind a cage. They then play the ringtone continuously for up to two hours until the curious leopard appears and moves into the cage looking for its easy meal.At least five leopards have so far been lured from villages since the new ringtone method was introduced three months ago. The cats have all been released back into forest areas.Wildlife activists weled the new initiative saying that previous methods of trapping the cats using pits often resulted in the animals getting injured. 36.

Weboholism, a twentieth century disease, affects people from different ages. They surf the net, use e-mail and speak in chat rooms. They spend many hours on the puter, and it bees a pulsive habit. They cannot stop, and it affects their lives. Ten years ago, no one thought that using puters could bee pulsive behavior that could affect the social and physical life of puter users. This obsessional behavior has affected teenagers and college students. They are likely to log on puters and spend long hours at different websites. They bee hooked on puters and gradually their social and school life is affected by this situation. They spend all free time surfing and dont concentrate on homework, so this addiction influences their grades and success at school. Because they can find everything on the websites, they hang out there. Moreover, this addiction to websites influences their social life. They spend more time in front of puters than with their friends. The relation with their friends changes. The virtual life bees more important than their real life. They have a new language that they speak in the chat rooms and it causes cultural changes in society. Because of the change in their behavior, they begin to isolate themselves from the society and live with their virtual friends. They share their emotions and feelings with friends who they have never met in their life. Although they feel confident on the puter, they are not confident with real live friends they have known all their life. It is a problem for the future. This addictive behavior is beginning to affect all the world.41. The main idea of the passage is about_.

You need to be prepared, though, for the world youre enteringthis isnt for the faint of heart, lets say.

His relationship with her lasts him through danger and hardship, and theres an impressive ending. See our interview with the productive novelist/newsman in the current issue of Readers Digest (March, on stands now), by the way, for insight into the very talented Mr. Lehrer and what interests him.

And the word es from the world of magic playing in Medieval (中世纪) Europe. In the dictionary Longman Dictionary of Contemporary English, hocus-pocus is explained this way a method or belief that you think is based on false ideas, e.g. He thinks psychology is a lot of hocus-pocus. 2Im afraid this explanation isnt as interesting as the sounding of the word itself. But then again, the dictionary I mentioned is a dictionary for beginners. One cant expect much from it when it es to such an interesting word as hocus-pocus. The Merriam-Webster dictionary online, on the other hand, gives a more detailed explanation (1)sleight of hand; (2)nonsense or sham used especially to cloak deception. And it gives the origin of the word probably from hocus pocus, imitation of a Latin phrase used by magicians.3This explanation gets to the basic nature of hocus-pocusexotic (外的) but meaningless talk by the magician to fool the audience. Watch any magician at work and well notice that he sometimes talks constantly while performing tricks, using hocus-pocus, such as ear-catching words, eye-catching hand or body movements, to distract(分散) our attention while he gets a trick done. 4Hocus pocus reveals the nonsensical nature of the magicians talk on stage. And it was introduced into the English language probably just on the strength of the rhyming sound of it. Hocus-pocus, lovely. 5Well, knowing its origin which is from performing magicians in Europe, Im sure you will find hocus pocus easier to remember. Youll also learn where to put it into use.56. What is the passage mainly about? (Please answer within 10 words.)57. Please list some examples of using “hocus pocus” mentioned in the passage. (Please answer within 10 words.) _ _ _58. Which sentence in the passage can be replaced by the following one?Hocus pocus shows magicians pletely ridiculous and pointless words while performing.59.
