Many people are looking for a pet that is a little more interesting than a cat or a dog. If you have a lot of space and are happy to find out how to look after it, a green iguana(蜥蜴) can make a great pet. We spoke to Dr. Troy Wilson, a specialist in lizards, about how to look after an iguana.
The first question is, what should it live in?
Dr. Wilson: The green iguana can grow to be about 2 meters long, so you are going to need a big space to keep it in. Start with a small glass tank for a baby iguana, then when it is bigger, you can move it into a larger cage.
Do they need water?
Dr. Wilson: Yes. Iguanas need water to drink and sit in. In the wild they always live near water and they are good swimmers. They need a water dish or small pond that is big enough for them to sit in.
What do they eat?
Dr. Wilson: They eat mostly raw vegetables and some fruit. You can feed your iguana fresh vegetables every day and some fruit once a week. Iguanas cannot chew their food so you should cut it into the right size. They swallow food in one piece.
Are they fun?
Dr. Wilson: An Iguana is a clever, friendly animal. It will learn who you are and can even be quite affectionate. (深情的)
Tuesday was like any other day for Morgan Bieley, 15. It was the fourth period, and she was the first student to arrive in the gym for her P.E. class. (1){#blank#}1{#/blank#}.
"There was a sharp cracking noise and then a loud boom. After that, I didn't remember anything,"said Morgan.
The roof(屋顶)of the gym had fallen down under the heavy snow. Morgan couldn't get away. "I woke up and there was a big piece of wood on my leg. (2){#blank#}2{#/blank#}. I was starting to get cold."
Luckily, help was nearby. A new program using "rescue(救援)robots" was tried for the first time.
"We were nervous about using the robot,"said Derric Sneed, the leader of the program. "But in the end the robot gave us exact information.(3) {#blank#}3{#/blank#}."
The robot was able to go into the gym and find Morgan's place. "Once we made sure where Morgan was and knew it was safe, our men went into rescue her,"says Sneed. "Her leg was broken and she was scared, but thankfully, she was alive."
Doctors say that Morgan is doing well. (4){#blank#}4{#/blank#}. "I want to meet my hero after I get out of the hospital," laughs Morgan. "That little robot saved my life!"
A. It went rather well B. I couldn't move C. She should be going home in three days C. Suddenly there was a loud noise. |

I once believed that a friend is a friend all the way. Now I have changed my ideas about friendships.
1). Friends of convenience(便利). They can be the people who live next door or the mothers of our children's closest friends. Friends of convenience are good indeed. They'll help us when we need it. They'll look after our cats when we go on holidays. But we don't ever get too close or tell too much. Between us, we'll talk about being overweight but not about being sad or disappointed(失望). However, people still find it necessary to make friends like this.
2). Special-interest friends. These friendships aren't deeply personal or emotional(感情上的). They lie in some shared interests, so we may have an office friend, a tennis friend, or even a shopping friend.
3). Historical friends. We all have a friend who knew us when…maybe we were back in the second grade of primary school, when our family lived in that two-room flat downtown. He or she was the first, the only friend we told our secrets to.
The years have gone by, and we have gone different ways. But we're still a personal part of each other's past. We know how we looked before our teeth were straightened(矫正), and our getting together makes us think of an earlier part of ourselves, which is important and never lost.
4). Cross-generational friends. These are friendships that from across generations(代). I have in my own life a precious(珍贵的) friend, a woman of 65, who is clever, who listens well, and who means not only an ideal mother to me but also the person I'd like to be when I grow up.
Best friends, I believe, totally love and help each other.
