同学你好~
作者去阿拉斯加旅游，阿拉斯加很美，但到处有熊的危险。当地人一点不怕熊，酒店商场摆放标本熊迎接游客。作者觉得这件事非常怪异。作者买的书章节标题全部是搞笑夸张的恐吓标题。文末作者调侃，庆幸自己见到的活熊只在动物园。

2. 书的章节标题：They Will Kill / Come Quick! I’m Being Eaten by a Bear! 快来！我被熊吃掉了！
3. 最后一句黑色幽默：I bet Mr. and Mrs. Bear will fight playfully over the remaining portion of a former tourist plumped up by airline food.
翻译：我猜熊夫妇还会嬉闹着争抢被航空餐养胖的游客剩下的残躯。

作者害怕野外乱跑的熊，很高兴熊待在动物园，所以他支持熊待在动物园。选 D

38. Why does the author mention stuffed drug smugglers?

This struck me as an odd concept, greeting visitors with a showcase containing a major local hazard. It’s as if an anti‑drug organization went around setting up glass display cases containing stuffed drug smugglers…
用当地一大危险源（熊）的标本迎接游客，这件事在我看来十分怪异。这就好比禁毒机构到处摆放被做成标本的毒品走私犯（给大家参观）。
作者打类比。阿拉斯加酒店摆危险熊的标本接待客人, 就好比禁毒局摆走私犯标本，这件事本身很荒唐、怪异。
