33、mber, she planned to go hiking and bird-watching. Bingo! A mile into her walk, she spotted a gorgeous female mute swan near the waters edge. Cordova-Rojas, 30, who had worked at the Wild Bird Fund rehabilitation center in Manhattan, knew that mute swans can be aggressive. But as she approached this
34、one, it didnt move.She was certain that the bird needed medical attention. Cordova-Rojas draped her jacket over the birds head to keep it calm, carefully picked it up, and held it in her arms. And then a thought struck her: What do I do now?Her best bet was the rehab center, but that was across the
35、East River and clear on the other side of town. How was she going to transport a 17-pound swan on her bike all that way? Luckily, some bemused strangers driving by offered her, her bike, and the swan a lift to a nearby subway station.On the subway, no one seemed particularly annoyed by the feathered
36、 passenger. One guy”, says Cordova-Rojas, “was sitting right in front of me on his phone. I dont know if he noticed there was a swan in front ofCordova-Rojas called the rehab center on the way, and Tristan Higgin, an animal-care manager, picked her up at the subway station and drove bird, bike, and
37、rescuer to the facility. There, staff members determined that the swan might have lead poisoning, caused by swallowing weights used on fishing lines.The staff got the swan back up on her webbed feet. She even made a boyfriend at the center-another injured swan. Sadly, even with all that TLC, the swa

Two months after Cordova-Rojas came to her rescue, she passed away.Its a disappointing ending, but the real story is just how for some people are willing to go to save a swan in the big cityliterally. In all, Cordova-Rojas traveled two hours by foot, car, and subw

Cooperative and generous.D. Responsible and ambitious.CWhat are pillows really stuffed with? Not physically, but symbolically? Th
42、e question occurred to me with the photos in the news and social media from the 50 cities around the world that staged public celebrations for International Pillow Fight Day. Armed with nothing more than bring-our-own sacrificial cushions, strangers struck heavily each other in playful feather from
43、Amsterdam to Atlanta, Warsaw to Washington DC. But why? Is there anything more to this delightful celebration?As a cultural sign, the pillow is deceptively soft. Since at least the 16th Century, the humble pillow has been given unexpected meanings. The Chinese playwright Tang Xianzu tells a famous s
44、tory about a wise man who meets a depressed young scholar at an inn and offers him a magic pillow filled with the most vivid dreams of a seemingly more fulfilling life. When the young man awakens to discover that his happy 50-year dream has in fact come and gone in the short space of an afternoons n
45、ap, our impression of the pillows power shifts from wonder to terror.Subsequent writers have likewise seized upon the pillow. When the 19th-Century English novelist Charlotte Bronte poetically observed “a ruffled （不平的）mind makes a restless pillow”, she didnt just change the expected order of the adj
46、ectives and nouns, but instead she made unclear the boundaries between mind and matter - the thing resting and the thing rested upon.Its a trick perhaps Bronte learned from the Renaissance philosopher Montaigne, who once insisted that “ignorance is the softest pillow on which a man can rest his head
47、”. On Montaignes thinking, intelligence and happiness confront each other forever in a pillow fight that only one can win.With the words of Tang. Bronte, and Montaigne, we can perhaps more easily measure the attraction of the global pillow fight. Like a ritual of release, the annual international pi
48、llow fight amounts to a kind of cleansing, a brushing off of daily worries: an emptying of the worlds collective mind. Rather than a launch-pad for weightless rest, the pillow is a symbol of heavy thought: an anchor that drags the worlds soul down one that must be lightened.35. The example of Tang Xianzu is used to illustrate that.A. pillows give people satisfactory dreamsdreams are always wonderful while the real world is cruelB. peopl
