【正文】 Take Direct Action? Many people think that hunting（打獵） is the best way to control the animal populations. Wildlife managers will see if there39。s enough food in an area and decide its carrying capacity（容量）. Then hunters with licenses are sent to help control the number of deer. Hunting is usually not allowed in cities or suburbs, however. Some people have the idea to catch the deer and move them to other places. But this method is expensive and requires finding another place that can accept the deer without breaking the balance of ecosystem（生態(tài)系統(tǒng)）. Scientists are also working to develop chemicals（化學(xué)藥品） to control the birth rate（率） in deer populations. But this plan works for only one year at a time.Should People Take Indirect Action? Some suggest bringing in natural enemies of deer, such as wolves, lions and bears, to areas with too many deer. But these animals could also hurt dogs, cats, and even humans. Other munities have built tall fences（籬笆） around areas to keep out the deer. However, this is impossible for farmers. ▲ Some people are against any kind of action. They support leaving the deer alone. Animal populations in an area naturally go up and down over time. Doing nothing means that some deer will die of hunger or illness. But finally, the population will reach a size within the carrying capacity（容量） of the environment. So, let nature go its own way.（1）According to the passage, increased numbers of deer can bring to people in the area.

An American lady, Anna Lane, believes it39。s true. Her kind neighbours once helped her out when she was in a big trouble. Mrs. Lane was living alone in a city in Texas, US. The woman in her 70s could do a lot of housework herself. However, she was too old to mow（修剪）her lawn（草坪）. Then a big trouble found her. She let the grass grow over 18 inches high and it broke the law in her city. As a result, she was in danger of paying lots of money or even going to prison! Luckily, her neighbours, the Adams brothers, heard the news about her on TV. They decided to do something to help. We haven39。t met her yet, but she39。s 75 years old and she needs some help, said Sam Adams, one of the boys. That39。s the least we could do. The Adams brothers took their mowers（修剪機(jī)）and came to Mrs. Lane39。s house to mow her lawn without telling her. Once they got started, other neighbours saw what was going on and joined in the effort. Together they worked hard in the sun and finished mowing the whole lawn in about two hours. When Mrs. Lane saw what her neighbours did for her, she was surprised and moved to tears（感動(dòng)得落淚）. I cannot believe this, she said. They were so kind to spend two hours helping me and I didn39。t even know their names. As for the Adams brothers, they said they would always be ready to help her. （1）What can we know about Mrs. Lane?
