REPTILE PETTING ZOO
at the Oak Park Nature Center
Kids! Are you tired of Mom or Dad dragging you to the same old petting zoos, where (if.you're lucky) you might get to touch a little rabbit or goat?
Mom or Dadf Are you tired of hearing your kids complain about how animals in the same old petting zoos are monotonous?
Consider This :

NO I Yet the blue- tongued skink (小蜥蜴) is all this and more!In our zoos, you can pet skinks, snakes, bearded dragons,and other fascinating creatures! Leam what these reptiles eat and how they care for their babies, which ones live in the desert and which live in wedands, which ones are meat-eaters and which are vegetarians (素食主义者) , which ones are deadly poisonous and which are not.

COVER STORY—Pax's New Life
By Michelle Tauber and Mary GreenThe actress and 3-year-old Pax Thien Jolie, whom she adopted last week from an orphanage in Ho Chi Minh City, left Hanoi's Noi Bai Airport in a private jet on Wednesday, bound for home—and, for Pax, a new life – in the U.S.
Jolie, 31, understands the challenges her new son will face as the latest addition to the world's most famous multicultural family. "You can imagine what courage it takes to be in all new surroundings, with new people and a new language," she tells PEOPLE in its new issue. "He is very strong." But she is committed to making his transition as smooth as possible. "It will take him a while to realize he has a family," she says, "and that his new life is permanent and that it won't keep changing."
The boy with the sweetly shy smile and the big brown eyes joins big brother Maddox, 5 （adopted from Cambodia）, sister Zahara, 2 （adopted from Ethiopia） and 10-month-old Shiloh, the daughter born to Jolie and Brad Pitt, 43, in May.
As for Dad, because Vietnamese regulations don't allow unmarried couples to co-adopt, Jolie adopted Pax as a single parent while Pitt remained in Los Angeles, where he is filming The Curious Case of Benjamin Button. "He has specific days on the movie that couldn't be changed or production would run over," says his rep.
But Jolie still made sure to bring a welcoming committee: Joined by Maddox and Zahara – Shiloh has been on the Button set every day with her father—the new mom used her first few days with Pax to begin gently bonding with him and to ask her other kids to do the same.
"We are slowly beginning to build his trust and bond," Jolie says, "but it will feel complete only when we are all together."
For exclusive photos – plus details on Angelina and Pax's first moments together, what Pax's life was like at the orphanage and more – pick up this week's PEOPLE, on newsstands Friday.

I would like to suggest that for sixty to ninety minutes each evening all television broadcasting in the United States be forbidden by law．
Let us take a 21 ,reasonable look at what the results might be if such a（an） 22 were accepted; families might use the time for a real family hour．Without the distraction（分散注意力） of TV, they might 23 to gether after dinner and actually talk to one another．It is well known that many of our 24 —everything in fact, from me generation gap to the high divorce rate to some forms of 25 illness —are caused at least in part by 26 to communicate．By using the quiet family hour to 27 our problems, we might get to know each other better, and to like each other better．
On evenings when such talk is 28 , families could discover more active pastimes（娱乐）．Freed from TV and forced to find their own activities, they might take a 29 tog ether to watch the sunset．30 they might take a walk together． 31 free time and no TV, children and adults might discover reading．There is more entertainment in 32 than in a TV program． 33 rep ort that the generation growing up with television can hardly write an English sentence, 34 at the college level． 35 is often learned from reading．A more literate new generation could be a product of the quiet hour．
A different form of reading might also be done 36 it was in the past: reading aloud．The quiet hour could become the story hour．When the 37 ends, the TV networks might be forced to 38 with better shows i n order to get us back from our newly- discovered activities．
At first glance, this idea seems radical （激进的） ．39 will we spend the time then? The fact is: it has been only twenty-five years since television came to control American free time． Those of us thirty-five and older can 40 childhoods without television．It wasn't that difficult．
21．A．valuable B．pleasant C．quick D．serious
22．A．advice B．suggestion C．opinion D．offer
