Many
high
school
students
in
the
United
States
take
part
in
school
activities
such
as
sports,
bands, math clubs, science clubs, and theater activities. But after-school activities are not just for
high school students. Many elementary schools also have after-school programs for students.

Most of the students in elementary after-school programs cannot go home when school ends
because
both
parents
work.
These
students
are
too
young
to
stay
at
home
alone.
So
the
main
purpose (
目的
) of these programs is just to look after the children until their parents can take them
home. And the best part is that many of the activities in elementary schools are free for parents,
unlike some daycare centers that are usually very expensive.

The teachers in charge of(
负责
) the programs want the children to learn while they are there.
So the programs may have a special time for children to do their homework. And many schools
also keep the school libraries open for students. Students can go to the libraries to read books or to
use the libraries
’

computers. But after-school programs are not
“
all work
”
. There is also plenty
of time for children to play in the school
’
s playground.

A Man and Many Wolves

The government(
政府
) wanted to know more about wolves so they sent Farley to learn about
wolves

They put Farley on a plane and sent him to a place in the far north. There were no houses or
people in this place. But there were lots of animals
—
and lots of wolves.

People
tell
terrible
stories
about
wolves.
They
say
wolves
like
to
kill
and
eat
people.
Farley
remembered these stories, and he was afraid. He had his gun (
枪
) with him all the time.

Then one day, he saw a group of wolves. There was a mother wolf with four baby wolves. A
father wolf and another young wolf lived with them.

Farley watched these wolves every day. The mother was a very good mother. She gave milk to
her babies. She gave them lessons about life. They learned how to get food. The father wolf got
food for the mother. They were a nice and happy family
—
a wolf family!

Farley watched them for five months. He learned many new things about wolves. Wolves don
’
t
eat people, and they don
’
t eat many large animals. The large animals they eat are often old or sick.

What do they eat most of the time? Lots of small animals. For example, they eat lots and lots of
mice.

Now, Farley did not need his gun any more.
