26、in. Its nearest relatives are the common birds, cuckoos. Its most striking feature, though, is only found in the young. Baby hoatzins have a claw on the leading edge of each wing and another at the end of each wing tip. Using these four claws, together with the beak (喙), they can climb about in the
27、bushes, looking very much like primitive birds must have done. When the young hoatzins have learned to fly, they lose their claws.

31、 of California San Diego(UCSD) for two decades, has won the Pulitzer Prize in the poetry category for her most recent book, “Versed.“Im delighted and amazed at how much media recognition that the Pulitzer brings, as compared to even the National Book Critics Award, which I was also surprised and del
32、ighted to win, said Armantrout.“For a long time, my writing has been just below the media radar, and to have this kind of attention, suddenly, with my 10th book, is really surprising.Armantrout, a native Californian, received her bachelors degree at UC Berkeley, where she studied with noted poet Den
33、ise Levertov, and her masters in creative writing from San Francisco State University. She is a founding member of Language Poets, a group in American poetry that analyzes the way language is used and raises questions to make the reader think. In March, she won the National Book Critics Circle Award
34、 for “Versed. “This book has gotten more attention, Armantrout said, “but I dont feel as if its better.The first half of “Versed focuses on the dark forces taking hold of the United States as it fought the war against Iraq. The second half looks at the dark forces casting a shadow over her own life
35、after Armantrout was diagnosed with cancer in .Armantrout was shocked to learn she had won the Pulitzer but many of her colleagues were not. “Rae Armantrout is a unique voice in American poetry, said Seth Lerer, head of Arts and Humanities at UCSD. “Versed, published by the Wesleyan University Press

39、ca have been arguing about the benefits and dangers of wolves. Some groups believe wolves should be killed. Other people believe wolves must be protected so that they will not disappear from the wilderness (荒野) For Killing WolvesIn Alaska, the wolf almost disappeared a few years ago, because hunters
40、 were killing hundreds of them for sport. However, 1aws were established to protect the wolves from sportsmen and people who catch the animals for their fur. So the wolf population has greatly increased. Now there are so many wolves that they are destroying their own food supply.A wolf naturally eat
41、s animals in the deer family. People in the wilderness also hunt deer for food. Many of the animals have been destroyed by the very cold winters recently and by changes in the wilderness plant life. When the deer cant find enough food, they die.If the wolves continue to kill large numbers of deer, t
42、heir prey (猎物) will disappear some day. And the wolves will, too. So we must change the cycle of life in the wilderness to balance the ecology. If we killed more wolves, we would save them and their prey from dying out. Wed also save some farm animals.In another northern state, wolves attack cows an
43、d chickens for food. Farmers want the government to send biologists to study the problem. They believe it necessary to kill wolves in some areas and to protect them in places where there is a small wolf population.

44、stories about the dangerous wolf. According to most stories, hungry wolves often kill people for food. Even today, the stories of the “big bad wolf will not disappear.But the fact is wolves are afraid of people, and they seldom travel in areas where there is a human smell. When wolves eat other anim
45、als, they usually kill the very young, or the sick and injured .The strongest survive .No kind of animal would have survived through the centuries if the weak members had lived. And has always been a law of nature.Although some people say it is good sense to kill wolves, we say it is nonsense! Researchers have found w
