13、 The monarch is one of the most beautiful butterflies. It is famous for its yearly migration（迁徙）from the northern part of North America to Mexico, There, millions of monarchs spend the winter together in one small area. This migration is one of the greatest wonders of nature. Yet this behavior has now put the monarch at risk.
Every September, millions of monarchs from the United States fly to Mexico. After about two months of flying time, they reach their sanctuary(庇护所)in central Mexico. Then, in the warm climate of private and quiet valleys, far from most human activity, the butterflies create one of nature’s great scenes. They cover every tree with bright color. The show lasts until spring, when the butterflies return north.
While they are all crowded together, the monarchs are highly weak. If the environment in those valleys was disturbed, the whole species could be hurt or even die out. That is why for many years scientists who knew about the monarchs’ winter sanctuary kept the location a secret.
In recent years, however, the monarchs’ secret has been discovered. Today, the butterflies’ winter sanctuary is crowded with tourists, who disturb the environment. Worse still, local farmers who need more land to farm have begun to take up the area. They are cutting down trees, making it difficult for the butterflies to survive. They should not farm in the monarchs’ sanctuary.
People should act immediately to protect the species’ winter sanctuary. Local farmers must be helped so that they no longer need to take land from the butterflies. Tourist visits to the butterflies’ hidden valleys must also be limited. Unless these steps are taken soon, in a few years the monarch butterfly of North America may be just a beautiful memory.

“We do not go into a house together,” they replied.
“Why is that?” she asked.
One of the old men pointed to his friends and explained: “His name is Wealth (财富),” he said and pointed to the other man: “He is Success, and I am Love. Now go in and discuss with your family which one of us you want in your home.”
The woman went in and told her husband what happened. Her husband was very happy. “How nice!” he said. “Let us invite Wealth. Let him come and fill our home with wealth!”
His wife disagreed. “My dear, why don’t we invite Success?”
Their daughter jumped in with her idea: “Would it not be better to invite Love? Our home will then be filled with love!”
“That’s a good idea,” said the husband to his wife. “Go out and invite Love to be our guest.”
The woman went out and invited Love in. Love got up and started walking toward the house. The other two old men also got up and followed him. Surprised, the lady asked them: “I only invited Love. Why are you coming in?”

15、Better think twice before choosing apasswordfor e-mail, online bank or shopping. Simple passwords are easy to be stolen.

A password is like a key to your home. If someone steals it, he’ll get chances to steal something else. We use passwords everywhere in our life. We are so used to passwords that we don’t pay any attention to them until we lose or forget one.
A study of 28,000 passwords recently stolen from a popular website showed that people often do the easy thing. It found that 16 percent took a first name as a password. Another 14 percent used the easiest keyboard combinations such as “12345678” or QWERTY. Five percent of the stolen passwords were names of television shows or stars popular with young people. Three percent of the passwords expressed feelings like “I don’t care,” “Whatever,” “I love you,” or their opposite, “I hate you.”
Robert Graham, who did the study, advises people to choose a password that is longer than eight characters with one capital letter(大写字母) and one symbol.
Of course, safe passwords don’t mean those hard to remember. Forgetting your password is sometimes a big headache for you. Maybe, the perfect password is easy for you and hard for others.
1．The underlined word “password” in Paragraph 1 means __________.
A．标志 B．护照 C．密码 D．口诀
