　　Last Thursday, Michael and Linda stood behind large food trucks distributing meals t0 4,000
　　homeless people for their wedding reception on the border town of Kilis. The couple had decided
　　that instead of hosting their friends and family for a traditional feast reception, they would feed the
　　victims from an earthquake-stricken area.
　　The idea came from the bridegroom's father, Ted, who volunteers for a Turkish relief
　　organization. For the past few years, the organization has distributed daily meals to thousands of
　　people who've suffered from natural disasters. He approached a representative of the organization
　　and suggested that the family cover part of the costs of feeding them for the day.
　　Then he told his son, who was surprised by the suggestion, but soon won over. When he told

　　distribution center on Thursday to spend the day serving food and taking photographs with their
　　grateful recipients（接受者）．
　　On Tuesday evening, the newly married couple were still pleased with their decision to quit a
　　personal celebration for one with a greater good. "It's like sharing a dinner with your friends and
　　family who have this kind of thing on a daily basis - or sharing something with people who don't
　　even have the most basic things," Michael said. "Hopefully, this will also give the start for other
　　wedding dinners to be held here with our brothers and sisters in need."

　　Mei Xiang, a female panda of 17 years old, gave birth to twins on August 22, 2015,
　　bringing a happy end to an anxious wait that had begun in April. The birth of two pandas has
　　increased the excitement at Washington's National Zoo, but keeping them both alive will be
　　tricky.
　　Now that Mei Xiang has surprised the world with twin babies, zoo staff are working
　　round the clock to help them through the first fragile weeks of life. Unable to crawl（爬） or
　　see for about two months, the baby depends on the mother's warmth, milk and protection.
　　Even so, misfortunes can happen. Mei's second baby, a female, was born in September
　　2012, but died a week later due to lung damage. Poorly developed lungs likely prevented it
　　from getting enough oxygen.
　　In the wild, if a panda has twins, the nature of the mother is to choose the stronger of the
　　two pandas and abandon one. But zoos have developed a way to get around that: They will
　　tarns to put the twins between mom and the incubator (恒温箱) every few hours, which
　　means that each baby will get enough time with its mother to be fed by her. If necessary, her
　　milk will be supplemented(补l-充) with a mixture of infant formula(婴儿配方), dog food and
　　water.
　　The tiny pandas are especially fragile in the face of the mother's 200-pound weight. In
　　July 2006, a panda in China accidentally killed her newborn as it nursed. By watching the
　　zoo's panda nests, zoo staff will keep a careful eye on the twins to mare mom doesn't
　　accidentally harm them.
　　5. How do the public feel about the birth of the pandas?
　　A. Anxious.           B. Excited.           C. Curious.                 D. Calm.
　　6. Why are baby pandas fragile in the first weeks?
　　A. They can't get enough time with their mother.         
　　B. Their mother may abandon them.
