At first, I went home every weekend with my washing, but then those visits became less regular. How did I let my parents know I was coming? They had no phone. Perhaps I wrote to them ("Expect me with dirty shirts this Friday afternoon"), but more likely I didn't let them know, and just turned up or didn't turn up, not understanding that my parents' dashed hopes of seeing me were a greater casualty of my carelessness than a spoiled tea. And in all this I suspect I was typical, at least of young men. As for our fathers and mothers, none of them talked of "empty-nest syndrome", even though its implication that the principal human duty is to protect and feed the young would have suited their generation better than ours. Then, the feelings of loss went without a name. Today, it's a condition with remedies, which will make parents feel more enjoyable in their life. The Mayo Clinic, for example, suggests you try to maintain regular contact with your children through "visits, phone calls, emails, texts or video chats". If you feel depressed, lean on loved ones or your mental health provider. Above all, stay positive: "Thinking about the extra time and energy you might have to devote to your marriage or personal interests after your last child leaves home might help you adapt to this major life change." What can’t be denied, however, is that children often leave home. In modern societies, this is what they do. Christmas is the very time they can be depended on to return. For the non-religious, that may be this season’s true comfort and significance. 文章大意：本文是一篇故事，讲述了圣诞前夕英国大批青年学生乘火车回家，由此引发了作 者回顾自我的经历并意识到，当年他根本没有意识到父母对孩子的关爱。文章还给上了年纪 的人如何排解空巢的孤独感和孩子们一些建议。 31．The main reason for the busy traffic across Britain next week is that .

They say development, climate change and bushfires have all related to reduce the number of wild koalas sharply. The Australian Koala Foundation said a recent survey showed the population could have dropped by more than half in the past six years. Previous estimates put the number of koalas at more than 100,000, but the latest figures suggest there could now be as few as 43,000. The foundation collected field data from 1,800 sites and 80,000 trees to calculate the numbers. In one area in northern Queensland estimated to have 20,000 koalas a decade ago, a team of eight people could not find a single animal in four days of searching. The foundation said besides problems caused by cutting down forests, hotter and drier conditions because of global warming had reduced the nutritional(营养的)value of their staple food, eucalyptus leaves, leading to poor nutrition for them. Koalas, which live in the forests in Australia’s east and south, are very particular about what types of the leaves they eat. Foundation chief Deborah Tabart said: “The koalas are missing everywhere we look. It’s really no tree, no me. If you keep cutting down trees you don’t have any koalas.”She is hoping the new figures will persuade the government’s Threatened Species Steering Committee (TSSC) to list the koala as threatened. But committee 只有比别人更早、更勤奋地努力，才能尝到成功的滋味。 8 chairman Bob Beeton said a decision was not likely recently and the koala’s status as one of the country’s favorite animals would not be a factor. “There’s a number of species which are attractive and people have special feelings towards them. We don’t consider that,” Mr. Beeton was reported as saying by the AFP agency. 【小题 1】The writer gives the example of the area in northern Queensland in Paragraph 3 to show that _____. A．the environment is being polluted seriously B．the number of koalas is dropping quickly C．the forests are being damaged heavily D．koalas usually live in wild mountainous areas 【小题 2】Global warming is an important cause of koalas’ reduction because _____. A．the leaves koalas eat are losing nutritional value B．koalas cannot get enough water to drink C．koalas can hardly stand the hot weather D．the leaves koalas eat cannot grow in hot weather 【小题 3】According to Bob Beeton, _____. A．they needn’t pay special attention to koalas B．a decision will be made to protect koalas C．koalas are his favorite animals D．koalas needn’t be protected at all
