On Christmas Eve, 1944, my grandmother urged my uncle, then 12 years old, to slip

out of the concentration camp where they were imprisoned near 15 miles east of Vienna

to go to Deutsch-Wagram. “People are charitable around Christmastime,” Grandma Lili

said to her son, Gyuri. “Ask for some food. Anything they can spare. Tell them that

we’re on the edge of starvation. Tell them that your 3-year-old sister can not get

off the bed because she’s outgrown her shoes.”

In the dark of that night, Gyuri secretly left the camp and walked nearly four

miles to Deutsch-Wagram, the closest town. He happened upon a house and knocked on

the front door. A woman opened that door. She was probably alone, her man far away,

fighting in the war, her children asleep in their beds. The 12-year-old pieced together

in German exactly what his mother had told him to say.

“Come back tomorrow," whispered the woman. The next day, my uncle returned. The

woman opened the door with a smile. She piled his hands with bread, clothing, a pair

of shoes that her child had outgrown and a pair of socks. The woman had knitted warm

socks for my mother. After putting on the socks and shoes that fit, my mother got off

the bed in delight. Her ragged shoes were passed on to a younger child who was also

living in the camp. They shared their unexpected harvest with the entire camp. It was

a quiet celebration of human kindness around Christmastime.

In April 1945, my mother, uncle and grandmother were liberated. And it was those very

socks and shoes that my mother wore as she walked some 28 miles over two days to

Bratislava on her walk to a new life.

To the unknown giver, I thank you. In the desperation of a cold and snowy land,

when many hearts were closed and death was more likely than life, especially for Jews,

you gave them hope and comfort.

(2017·河北石家庄高三一模)For visitors，Teller Lake in Colorado looks like a

fishbowl filled with thousands of gorgeous goldfish. However, to the Colorado Parks

and Wildlife Department they are a group of dangerous species that could end up

destroying the lake’s ecosystem.

The problem is that these fish aren’t native to the lake which means they have

no predators(捕食者)．This allows them to multiply in large numbers. The officials

believe that most of them are a result of a few unwanted pet goldfish that were thrown

into the lake.

While that may appear to be a kind thing to do, it is extremely dangerous, not

to mention illegal. That’s because as the non­native species grow in numbers，they compete with the existing fish for food sources like small insects.Given that

there is only a limited supply of resources，this could result in the goldfish

overpowering the native fish species. In the case of Teller Lake, the officials are

particularly worried that the goldfish will move downstream and affect the

population of some of the endangered native species that live there.Another major

cause for concern is the diseases the goldfish may be carrying.

The Colorado Parks and Wildlife biologists，therefore, have no option but to

remove the fish from the lake in the most efficient manner.The fish will then be

fed to injured birds like eagles and ospreys.

Experts say that most owners believe they are doing the “right thing” by

returning their pet to the wilderness.However, saving one pet often results in
