A wildlife phtgrapher was waiting, hping t get a sht f a relatively rare bird, a particular kind f hern(鹭). He’d waited several frustrating hurs in the wds, but with n luck at all. Suddenly, t the phtgrapher’s delight, a hern settled n a branch right in frnt f him. The phtgrapher raised his camera and tk the sht. Feeling particularly pleased, the phtgrapher lked at the image. T his astnishment, he saw that behind the hern, his phtgraph had als captured a very, very rare wdpecker flying past. He hadn’t seen it, but withut even trying, he’d phtgraphed an even rarer bird than the ne he was aiming fr. This is an example f serendipity.
Cases f serendipity can be fund in numerus fields, such as science. Back in the 1800s, a man called Wellswas at a demnstratin (演示) f laughing gas. After being given the gas, the patient started laughing, as expected. But then he suddenly fell ver and cut his le g rather badly. T everyne’s surprise, the man reprted that he culdn’t feel any pain. Wells hadn’t been lking fr it, but he’d made a medical discvery — certain gases reduce and can even almst eradicate pain. Had Wells nt been there that night, anesthesia (麻醉) might have taken lnger t be discvered.
Mst f us can prbably think f at least ne example f serendipity in ur wn lives. Jane, a friend f mine,was trying t cme up with an idea fr an article but gt cmpletely stuck. Frustrated, she decided t g ut t a lcal café. As she was sipping her cffee, she heard tw peple talking behind her. A man was telling a stry that sunded s unbelievable that she knew it had t be true. She asked the peple if she culd interview them fr the article. They agreed and her article turned ut t be ne f the tp trending articles f the week.

10．Why did Jane g t the café?
A．T take a break.B．T meet a friend.
C．T write an article.D．T d an interview.
11．What is the authr’s purpse in writing the text?

Mst parents are wrried the first time they catch their kids ut in a lie. Accrding t child and teen psychiatrist Gayani DeSilva, lying can actually be a sign f healthy develpment in yung children. “Kids lie fr many reasns, and much f it is nrmal,” DeSilva says. “Peple are nt brn with the knwledge f cmmunicating with thers and getting their needs met. They’ll experiment with different cmmunicatin styles and techniques until they find the nes that wrk best fr them. Lying is ne f thse techniques.”
As kids get lder, they becme mre aware f hw their actins affect thers, and many will lie less frequently. In spite f this, parents still need t lead their kids t frm a habit f nt lying.

The same ges fr a child wh has experienced smething unpleasant. He may lie t try t hide his shame, avid admitting his needs, r t cntrl his surrundings t ensure his safety.
By paying attentin t the reasns behind a lie, parents can figure ut what need t be dne. Fr example, while Jack might lie abut cmpleting his hmewrk in rder t play vide games, he als might be trying t avid negative feelings cnnected with schl wrk, and this is just where parents shuld start, says therapist Giden Javna.
12．What can be inferred abut lying frm DeSilva’s wrds?
A．It has certain benefits fr the healthy grwth f kids.
B．It shws the understanding between kids and parents.

C．By telling them directly the harm f lying.
D．By punishing them fr their lying in a safe way.

A．It’s cmmn fr children t lie
B．It’s imprtant t be a generus parent
C．lying can damage family relatinships
D．lying is a reflectin f ne’s mental truble

My tw children hung their heads and walked reluctantly t the field. At this time, I als felt sad. Hw I wished their father had cme, and uncnsciusly turned my head t lk at the entrance.
Just then, I received a call frm my husband. He said, “I am arriving in a few minutes.” I turned back again and saw a familiar figure walking twards me and my sns. Gradually, he changed frm walking t running. It turned ut that the familiar figure was my husband—the father f my tw children. He successfully came back in time fr the game.
