American

When

it

is

angry

or

afraid,

it

makes

a

noise

like

a

rattle

with

its

tail.

It's

very

scary.

But

Heather

Ramirez

and

her

husband,

from

California,

in

the

United

States,

make

a

living

in

an

unusual

way.

They

are

self-employed

(自雇的)snake

catchers!

They

catch

snakes,

especially

rattlesnakes

which

have

gone

indoors,

and

return

them

to

the

wild.Heather

describes

her

work

as

"protecting

people

from

rattlesnakes

—

and

protecting

rattlesnakes

from

people!"

In

the

area

where

they

live,

rattlesnakes

often

come

face

to

facewith

people.

They

are

found

in

stores,

offices,

houses

and

gardens.

Heather

explains

that

it's

not

the

snakes

that

are

moving

into

places

where

people

live,

but

it's

the

other

way

round.The

snakes

lived

in

these

places

first

and

then

the

people

built

houses.Most

people

who

see

a

rattlesnake

are

feared.

If

you

keep

your

distance,

however,

the

snake

won't

bite

(咬)

you.

In

twelve

years

as

a

snake

catcher,

Heather

has

never

toucheda

snake.

She

doesn't

take

the

risk.

She

picks

up

the

snakes

with

a

special

tool.

This

doesn't

hurt

them,

but

it

keeps

them

at

a

safe

distance

so

that

they

can't

bite

her.Heatherandherhusbandareverybusybecausetheyareneveroffduty.Catchingsnakesisafull-timejobandtheywon’toftenhaveadayoff.Peoplecangettothematanttimeofthedayornight.Noteveryonecandothisjob,butHeatherdoesn’twanttodoanythingelse.〞Ijustlovemyjob,〞Shesays.16.TheRamirezsmakealivinginanunusualwayby________

But,

one

day,

Chip

threw

a

chair

at

his

teacher

and

was

sent

to

my

office.

I

asked

him

what

made

him

do

this.

He

replied

that

his

teacher

hated

him.

He

felt

there

was

no

way

to

ever

get

her

to

like

him.

I

asked

him

if

he

would

tell

his

teacher

this.

He

nodded,

and

we

called

her

into

my

office.When

the

teacher

came,

_______

.

He

then

said

that

he

knew

he

was

a

very,

very

bad

boy,

and

he

didn't

think

anyone

could

ever

like

him.

His

teacher

listened

to

him

with

heartfelt

compassion.

Then

she

gave

him

a

big

warm

hug,

telling

him

she

didn't

hate

him

at

all

and,

actually,

she

cared

very

much

about

him.

Only

sometimes

Chip's

behavior

really

scared

her.

It

was

clear

to

both

Chip

and

me

that

she

really

meant

it.Iputmyleftarmonhisshouldersandtherighthandonhisheart.ItoldhimhowwonderfulandlovelyIsawhimtobe.Ipraisedhowspecialandbravehewastoexpresshishurtfeeling.AsIwasspeakingtohim,hiswholebodycametorestonmyrighthandnexttohisheart.ItwasamomentintimeunlikeanythingIhadexperiencedbefore.Fromthenon,I’mpleasedtoseehisbehaviorimprovedthroughtherestofschoolyears.Achild’smindisclearandsensitive(敏感的).Hereceiveswhateverotherssawwithoutprotection.Itisaseasytoconsidersomeonehopelessasitasitistoconsiderhimableinhisownspecialway.19.Thefirstparagraphmainlytellsus
