1We often read stories and see videos of people raising abandoned wildlife as pets, such as squirrels and raccoons (浣熊). But have you ever seen a domesticated (馴化的) bear that lives with a human family?Now you have.

2Twenty-four years ago,some hunters in Russia stumbled upon a 3-month-old bear cub that had been abandoned by his mother. The bear was in terrible condition, so the hunters took pity on him. Svetlana and Yurily Panteleenko learned of the bear's sad condition and took him to their home.

3There, they nursed the bear back to health and named him Stepan. They took great care of the wild bear and they've now had him for twenty-four years.Little did they know then that Stepan would grow up to be a 7-foot-tall and 300-pound giant bear.

4Stepan eats just over 50 pounds of fish,vegetables,and eggs daily,but the Panteleenkos keep him in shape by playing ball with him in the yard.He also likes to join them when the couple is gardening!When Stepan isn't busy eating or playing in the yard,he enjoys taking a seat on the couch with his family—which he takes up most of the time.

5The bear has done well adapting to domestic life,the only life he's ever really known.Thankfully, he's never shown any aggression towards people and enjoys living with humans. He also likes to do chores around the house, like watering plants.“He loves people and he is a sociable bear—despite what people might think,he is not aggressive at all.We have never been hurt by Stepan,”Svetlana said.

6Although this is definitely an unusual wild animal to live in one's home, Stepan and the Panteleenkos clearly have an understanding,and their relationship has continued to flourish(蓬勃發(fā)展)over the past two decades.Families clearly come in all shapes,sizes,and even species!

?語言學(xué)習(xí)

Ⅰ.語料薈萃

語篇單詞abandoned adj.被遺棄的 wildlife n.野生動物hunter n.獵人 condition n.狀況health n.健康 daily adv.每天aggression n.攻擊性 despite prep.盡管definitely adv.肯定；確實 understanding n.理解；看法relationship n.關(guān)系 continue v.繼續(xù)decade n.十年 species n.物種重要短語enjoy doing sth 喜歡做某事 in terrible condition 狀況很糟糕take pity on 同情 take care of 照料keep...in shape 使……保持健康 take a seat 坐下take up 占據(jù) adapt to 適應(yīng)do chores 做家務(wù)

Ⅱ.語句分析

1. Little did they know then that Stepan would grow up to be a 7-foot-tall and 300-pound giant bear.當(dāng)時他們還不知道Stepan會長成一頭7英尺高、300磅重的大熊。

【點石成金】Little did they know then 是主句，由于little 是含有否定意義的詞，并且位于句首，所以主句使用了部分倒裝語序。that Stepan would...bear是賓語從句。

教學(xué)方案對于英語老師授課時候能夠形成不小的干預(yù)，老師就應(yīng)該在授課之前依照授課內(nèi)容規(guī)劃好英語教學(xué)方案，展開教學(xué)積極了解同學(xué)們的具體英語學(xué)習(xí)情況，依照同學(xué)們的具體學(xué)習(xí)情況展開接下來的英語講解布置，與同學(xué)們以朋友的身份相處，讓同學(xué)們可以積極主動地融入初中英語課堂授課當(dāng)中去，從而提升初中生們的英語學(xué)習(xí)效率。

2.Although this is definitely an unusual wild animal to live in one's home,Stepan and the Panteleenkos clearly have an understanding, and their relationship has continued to flourish over the past two decades.盡管這絕對是一種不尋常的住在家中的野生動物，但Stepan和Panteleenko 夫婦顯然心意相通，他們的關(guān)系在過去二十年中持續(xù)升溫。

【點石成金】本句的主干是由and連接的并列句，Stepan and the Panteleenkos clearly have an understanding是第一個分句，their relationship has continued to...decades是第二個分句，Although引導(dǎo)的是讓步狀語從句。
