Module 6 Animals in Danger
一头 16 岁的雄性北极熊活活饿死在北极,像一张“毛毯”。你知道为什么吗?
A Polar Bear Starved to Death
A dead polar bear found on the Arctic island has shocked
experts who say climate change may be to blame for the
animal's death.The starved polar bear in Norway was said to
be in good health in April when the Norwegian Polar Institute
examined and tagged it.However,the animal was reduced to skin and bones by the time
a group of explorers happened to find his body in July.
“From his lying position in death the bear appears to simply have starved and
died where he dropped,”polar bear expert Dr.Ian Stirling told The Guardian.“He
had no any remaining fat,having been reduced to little more than skin and bones.”
Stirling believes the bear starved to death as a result of a lack of sea ice,
which the animals use as a platform for hunting seals.That may also explain why the
16yearold male bear was found about 155 miles north of where it was seen in April.
Arctic sea ice reached a record low in 2012,according to a report released this
week by the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration,which pointed to
continued signs of climate change.
The International Union for Conservation of Nature currently has put polar bears
into its Red List of Threatened Species.
The Endangered Species Act states that the government must act immediately to
help save the polar bear from extinction.According to the World Wildlife Fund,
only 20,000 to 25,000 polar bears remain on the planet.

Animals are natural resources that people have wasted all through our history.
Animals have been killed for their fur and feathers,for food,for sport,and
simply because they were in the way.Thousands of kinds of animals have disappeared
from the earth forever.Hundreds more are on the danger list today.About 170 kinds
in the United States alone are considered in danger.
Why should people care?Because we need animals,and because once they are gone,

there will never be any more.Animals are more than just beautiful or interesting.They
are more than just a source of food.Every animal has its place in the balance of
nature.Destroying one kind of animal can create many problems.For example,when
farmers killed large numbers of hawks,the farmers' stores of corn and grain were
destroyed by rats and mice.Why?Because hawks eat rats and mice,with no hawks to
keep down their numbers,the rats and mice multiplied quickly.
Luckily,some people are working to help save the animals.Some groups raise money
to let people know about the problem.And they try to get the governments to pass
laws protecting animals in danger.Quite a few countries have passed laws.These laws
forbid the killing of any animals or plants on the danger list.Slowly,the number
of some animals in danger is growing.

经历这些痛苦时,Winifred Phillips 收养了“我”,因此是幸运的。

3.A.brought up B.sent off
C.taken in D.met with
【解析】 联系空后的 34 foster(收养的)kids 可知,在收养“我”的时候,他们已经
收养了 34 个孩子。take in“收留;留宿”,符合语境。bring up“教育;养大成人”;send
off“打发走”;meet with“偶然遇到”。

【解析】 根据前文“34 foster(收养的)kids”可知,这是一个寄养家庭。A、B 均有
一定干扰性,因为“我”照顾的是四个人,因此不能说是一个很大的家庭。文章中没有提到
这个家庭的经济状况,poor 也被排除。
【答案】 D
9.A.selfish B.strong

【解析】 从下文“truly loved her and the family”可知,“我”无私地照顾着这
个家庭,即一点也不自私。

爱的恩惠。
【答案】 C
11.A.turning down B.giving up
C.setting up D.getting across
【解析】 由前文可知,作者一直无私地照顾着这个家庭,想用自己的爱回报他们的爱,

A
Protecting animals that are in danger is not a big priority for young people,
according to a recent survey.
Compiled(汇编)by the aircraft maker Airbus,the survey was announced at London
Zoo on 16 May,a week ahead of the UN's International Day of Biodiversity(生物多
样性)on 22 May.
Forty percent of the 10,000 5 to 18yearolds who participated ranked watching
TV or playing computer games higher than saving the environment.
School reporters from Mayfield School and College in Barking,London,commented
on the possible future effect of the survey's results.
Fardus,16,said,“I do care about animals becoming extinct,as each animal is
involved in a circle of life.Without each animal the world would lose its function.”
He added,“We are the future generation and we need to live on the resources that
animals give us.”
Sophie,16,said,“Animals are basically like us.They've got to live.They've
got to eat.And it's important to look after them as well as they look after us.”She
believed one reason for young children's lack of awareness(意识)was their addiction
to computer games and other electrical products.
Naila,16,said,“No matter how big or small they are,animals play a really
important part for the earth.”She added,“If all the animals are extinct,the future
generation of children won't have anything left,and it will be the adults' fault
because they're not thinking about the children's future.”
“You can't blame young people for not caring,”she said,“Because the generation
that are already here are teaching us not to care by hurting animals and causing
environmental damage.”

2.What does the underlined word “priority”in Para.1 most probably mean?
A.Something useful.
B.Something popular.
C.Something important.

participated...”可知这项调查是针对青少年进行的,故 A 项正确。该调查的结果是在 5
月 22 日(国际生物多样性日)之前在伦敦动物园发布的,但并不是伦敦动物园发起的,因此
B、C 两项错误,D 项无依据。
【答案】 A
4.According to Sophie,one reason that young people aren't aware enough of
protecting animals is that .
A.they don't like animals at all
B.they pay more attention to electrical products
C.they are affected by people who hurt animals
D.they aren't taught to protect animals at school

动物意识的一个原因是“他们沉溺于电脑游戏和其他电子产品”,因此 B 项正确。
【答案】 B

B
Animals can move from place to place,but plants cannot.When an animal is under
attack,it can run away or fight back.Plants certainly cannot run away,and they
lack teeth and claws.But plants can defend themselves by using both physical and
chemical means.
Some plants have their own ways to keep animals away.For example,the leaves
of the holly plant have sharp spines(刺) that discourage grasseating animals.Holly
leaves on lower branches have more spines than leaves on upper branches.This is
because the lower leaves are easier for most animals to reach.
Some plants,such as the oak tree,have thick and hard leaves that are difficult
for animals to eat.Some grasses may contain a sandy material;eating such grasses
wears down the animal's teeth.
Many plants also have chemical defenses,some plants produce chemicals that taste
bitter or cause an unpleasant reaction.Some plants may fight against an attack by
increasing the production of these chemicals.When a caterpillar( 毛虫)bites a
tobacco leaf,the leaf produces a chemical messenger.This messenger sends to the
roots the information to produce more nicotine.The higher levels of nicotine
discourage the caterpillar.
Many plants depend on both physical and chemical defenses.A certain plant in
China,for instance,has prickly(多刺的)leaves,and each prickle contains poisonous
venom(毒液).A single experience with this kind of plant will teach an animal to
stay away from it in the future.
【语篇解读】 本文主要介绍了植物的一些防御外敌侵犯的方法。

animals .
A.are not tall enough

sports isn't fun.How do I deal with that?
Answer:We're sorry that you don't find sports and P.E.fun.But we can give you
some suggestions. 2 Look at it as a way to learn some skills.If you are feeling
nervous about how you are doing at a certain sport,try to have a positive attitude
towards it.Besides,as with most activities,to get better in sports you need to
practice. 3
In addition,you can talk to your P.E.teacher and let him or her know how you
feel.By sharing your feelings,the teacher can see that you are really trying your
best and that you care about what is happening in class. 4 Your teacher also needs

一、引导定语从句的关系词
1.引导定语从句的常用关系词的用法
关系词 指代对象 在从句中所作成分
关系代词
who 指人 主、宾、表
whom 指人 宾
which 指物 主、宾、表
that 既指人又指物 主、宾、表
whose 既指人又指物 定
as 既指人又指物 主、宾、表
关系副词
when 指时间 时间状语
where 指地点 地点状语
why 指原因 原因状语
There are occasions when(=on which) one had to yield.
任何人都有不得不屈服的时候。
Beijing is the place where(=in which)I was born.
北京是我出生的地方。
2.定语从句中关系词的选用
方法一:用关系代词还是关系副词取决于从句中的谓语动词。如果是及物动词,就要用
关系代词;如果是不及物动词,则要用关系副词。
This is the mountain village where I stayed last year.
这是我去年待过的山村。
方法二:准确判断关系词在定语从句中所作的成分(主、宾、定、状),也能正确选择出
关系代词/关系副词。
关系词在从句中作主语、定语、宾语时,应用关系代词(who,whom,that,which,whose);
关系词在从句中作状语时,应用关系副词(where 作地点状语,when 作时间状语,why 作原
因状语)。
3.that 和 which 引导的定语从句的区别
that 和 which 都是关系代词,都可在从句中作主语或宾语,但两者存在着不同:
用 that 不用 先行词是 all,much,few,little,everything,anything,nothing,
真正的价值并不在人生的舞台上,而在我们扮演的角色中。
33
which
的情况
none,the one 等不定代词时
先行词被 all,few,little,much,every,some,no 等词修饰或
被 the only,the very,the same,the last 等限定词修饰时
先行词是形容词的最高级或先行词前有形容词最高级修饰时
先行词是序数词或其前有序数词对其进行修饰时
先行词既指人又指物时
主句是 who 或 which 等引导的特殊疑问句时
用 which 不
用 that 的情
况
在非限制性定语从句中用 which 不用 that
介词后边用 which 不用 that
We should do everything that is useful to the people.
我们应该做一切有益于人民的事。
When we talk about Hangzhou,the first that comes into our mind is the West Lake.
我们谈论杭州时,首先想到的是西湖。
This is the smallest computer that can be found in the world now.
这是目前发现的世界上最小的计算机。
二、“介词+关系代词”的用法
1.“介词+关系代词”结构中介词的确定方法。
(1)根据从句中的谓语动词或主要的形容词确定介词。
The poor man has no house in which he can live.
那个穷人没房子住。
(2)根据定语从句修饰的先行词确定介词。
I don't know the reason for which he was late for school.我不知道他为何上学
迟到。
(3)根据句子所要表达的意思确定介词。
This is the pilot by whom my son was saved.
这就是那位救了我儿子的飞行员。
2.“介词+关系代词”结构中的关系代词通常用 which 或 whom,不用 that。
I'll never forget the day on which I joined the army.
我永远也忘不了我参军的那一天。
This is the pencil with which I draw pictures.
这是我画画用的那支铅笔。

+which 在从句中的作用。why 只可替换 for which。
真正的价值并不在人生的舞台上,而在我们扮演的角色中。
34
This is the house in which I lived two years ago.
=This is the house where I lived two years ago.
这就是两年前我居住的那个房子。
4.“不定代词或数词+介词+which/whom”引导的定语从句说明整体中的部分。
Last week,only two people came to look at the house,neither of whom wanted
to buy it.
上周只有两个人来看房子,他们两个人都不想买。
5.“the+名词+of which”或“of which+the+名词”可替换“whose+名词”,引
导定语从句。
The house the windows of which/of which the windows/whose windows were damaged
has now been repaired.
窗子遭破坏的那所房子现在已经修好了。
三、限制性定语从句和非限制性定语从句
限制性定语从句和非限制性定语从句的区别如下:
限制性定语从句 非限制性定语从句
和先行词的关系密切(删除后
影响整个句子意义的表达)
和先行词关系不密切(起补充说明的作用,删掉后不
影响整个句子意思的表达)
不用逗号隔开 一般用逗号隔开
关系代词指物时可用 that、
which 引导
不可以用 that 引导,只能用 which
只可以修饰先行词,不可以修
饰主句或主句的一部分
既可以修饰先行词,也可以修饰主句或主句的一部
分
The Great Wall is one of the buildings that Chinese people are proud of.长城
是中国人为之骄傲的建筑之一。(限制性定语从句)
Yesterday I met Mary,who looked very tired.
昨天我遇到了玛丽,她看上去很累。(非限制性定语从句)
[名师点津]
非限制性定语从句与并列句的识别
非限制性定语从句与主句之间常用“逗号”分开,并且不能加入 and,but,so 等连接
词。并列句一般由 and,but,so 等词连接。
He paid the boy $10 for washing the windows,most of which hadn't been cleaned
for at least a year.
=He paid the boy $10 for washing the windows,and most of them hadn't been cleaned
for at least a year.

=He paid the boy $10 for washing the windows.Most of them hadn't been cleaned
for at least a year.
那个男孩擦了窗户,他付给那个男孩 10 美元。那些窗户的大部分已经至少一年没有擦
了。
四、as/which 引导的非限制性定语从句
as
引导非限制性定语从句时,修
饰整句话或整件事
位置较灵活,可置于所修饰的句
子前面、放在句子中或放在句子
后
一 般 译 为 “ 正
如,就像”
whic
h
修饰主句或主句的一部分 定语从句只置于所修饰的句子后
一般译为“这件
事”
As we all know,smoking is harmful to health.
我们都知道,吸烟有害健康。
He finished the task ahead of time,which is very important to us.
他提前完成了任务,这对我们很重要。
当非限制性定语从句放在主句前面时,只能用 as。
As is known to everybody,the moon travels round the earth once every month.
=The moon travels round the earth once every month,as/which is known to
everybody.
=It is known to everybody that the moon travels round the earth once every month.
=What is known to everybody is that the moon travels round the earth once every
month.
众所周知,月亮每月绕地球转一圈。
(后两句属于名词性从句范畴)
五、关系副词引导的定语从句
关系副词有 where,when,why,在定语从句中代替先行词作状语,常可用“介词+
which”代替。
1.where 指地点,在定语从句中作地点状语。
Bamboo grows well in the place where it is warm and wet all the year.
竹子在一年四季都温暖潮湿的地方生长得好。
2.when 指时间,在定语从句中作时间状语。
I often thought of my childhood when I lived on a farm.我经常回想起我的童年,
那时我住在一个农场里。
3.why 指原因,在定语从句中作原因状语。
There are several reasons why(for which)we can't do that.
真正的价值并不在人生的舞台上,而在我们扮演的角色中。
36
我们不那样做有好几个理由。
[名师点津]
situation,case,point,stage 等表示“情况,方面”的名词后可接 where 引导的定
语从句。occasion 后常接 when 引导的定语从句。
I think you've got to the point where a change is needed,otherwise you'll fail.
我认为你已经到了应该有所改变的地步了,否则你会失败。

Modern zoos are different from those built fifty years ago.Those zoos were places
where people could go to see animals from many parts of the world.The animals lived
in cages with iron bars.Although the zoo keepers took good care of them,many of
the animals did not feel comfortable,and they often felt ill.
In modern zoos,people can see animals in more natural conditions.The animals
are given more freedom in nature.Even the appearance of zoos has changed.Trees and
grass grow in cages,and water flows through the places the animals live in.There
are few bars; instead,there is often a deep ditch(沟),filled with water,which
surrounds a space where several sorts of animals live together with the world
naturally.In an American zoo,the visitor can walk through a huge special cage that

to live naturally.In a zoo in New York,people can observe certain animals that are
active only at night,when most zoos are closed.Some zoos have special places for
visitors to watch animals that live in the desert or under water.
Modern zoos not only show animals to visitors,but also keep and save rare
animals.For this reason,fifty years from now,the grandchildren of today's visitors
will still be able to enjoy watching these animals.

The African elephant,the largest land animal remaining on earth,is of great
importance to African ecosystem (生态系统).Unlike other animals,the African
elephant is to a great extent the builder of its environment.As a big planteater,
it largely shapes the forestandsavanna(大草原) surroundings in which it lives,
therefore setting the terms of existence for millions of other animals that live
in its habitat.
It is the elephant's great desire for food that makes it a disturber of the
environment and an important builder of its habitat.In its continuous search for
the 300 pounds of plants it must have every day,it kills small trees and underbushes,
and pulls branches off big trees.This results in numerous open spaces in both deep
tropical forests and in the woodlands that cover part of the African savannas.In
these open spaces are numerous plants in various stages of growth that attract a
variety of other planteaters.
Take the rain forests for example.In their natural state,the spreading branches
overhead shut out sunlight and prevent the growth of plants on the forest floor.By
pulling down trees and eating plants,elephants make open spaces,allowing new plants
to grow on the forest floor.In such situations,the forests become suitable for large
hoofed planteaters to move around and for small planteaters to get their food as
well.
What worries scientists now is that the African elephant has become an endangered
species.If the elephant disappears,scientists say,many other animals will also
disappear from vast areas of forest and savanna,greatly changing and worsening the
whole ecosystem.

1.providing 考查动词形式。位于介词 of 后,需用动名词形式。
2.turns 考查名词。take turns to do sth.表示“轮流做某事”,为固定搭配。
3.which 考查定语从句。which 在句中引导非限制性定语从句,且在从句中作主语。
4.had 考查时态。本文是叙述过去的事情,用一般过去时态。
5.a 考查冠词。a break 休息一会儿。
6.tired 考查形容词。父亲照看有学习能力缺陷的姐姐无数个夜晚,自然是劳累的,
因此用 tired。
7.that 考查主语从句。it 在句中作形式主语,that under such stress and pressure,
my mum and dad have always remained calm and loving with Frances,with me,and most
incredibly with each other 在句中作真正的主语,从句中不缺少成分且意思完整,因此
用 that 引导。
8.absolutely 考查副词。修饰 heartbreaking,需用副词形式。
9.torn 考查分词。tear...apart 表示“彻底毁灭”,families 和 tear apart 是逻
辑上的被动关系,因此需用过去分词形式。
10.is spent 考查动词语态。钱是 spend 的对象,因此需用被动语态。

Animal Conservation
Many animal and plant species have become extinct and many more are in critical
danger.Finding ways to protect the earth's wildlife and conserve the natural world
they inhabit(居住) is now more important than ever.
Dodos
The dodo is a classic example of how human caused damage to the earth's
biology.The flightless dodo was native to the Island of Mauritius in the Indian
Ocean.It lived on fruit fallen from the island's trees and lived unthreatened until
真正的价值并不在人生的舞台上,而在我们扮演的角色中。
45
humans arrived in 1505.The easily controlled bird became a source of food for sailors
and was attacked by animals introduced to the island by humans such as pigs,monkeys
and rats.The population of dodos rapidly decreased and the last one was killed in
1681.
Rhinos (犀牛)
The rhino horn is a highly prized item for Asian medicine.This has led to the
animal being hunted in its natural habitat.Once widespread in Africa and Eurasia,
most rhinos now live in protected natural parks and reserves.Their numbers have
rapidly decreased in the last 50 years,and the animals remain under constant threat
from poachers.
The Giant Pandas
The future of the World Wildlife Fund's symbol is far from certain.As few as
1,000 remain in the world.
The Chinese government has set up 33 panda reserves to protect these beautiful
animals and made poaching them punishable with 20 years in prison.However,the
panda's distinct black and white patched coat fetches a high price on the black market
and determined poachers still pose(造成) one of the most serious threats to the
animals' continued existence.
Whales
The International Whaling Commission is fighting to ensure the survival of the
whale species.Despite the fact that onethird of the world's oceans have been
declared whale sanctuaries( 保 护 区 ) , 7 out of 13 whale species remain
endangered.Hunted for their rich supply of oil,their numbers have decreased to just
300.Collisions (碰撞) with ships,poisonous pollution and being caught in fishing
nets are other major causes of whale deaths.
Tigers
The last 100 years has seen a 95% reduction in the numbers of remaining tigers
to between 5,000 and 7,000 and the Bali,Javan,and Caspian tiger are already
extinct.The South China tiger is precariously close to disappearing,with only 20
to 30 still alive.Like the rhino horn,tigers' bones and organs are sought after
for traditional Chinese medicines.These items are traded illegally along with tiger
skins.

Twelve years ago,a young traveler named Rhett Butler from San Francisco,
California,visited the Sabah rainforest on Malaysian Borneo.In one area of the
rainforest,he watched as an orangutan (猩猩)moved through the trees.It was a sight
to remember,in a place to remember.
But weeks later,back home,Rhett Butler got the news that trees had been cut
down for their wood in the area he visited.
That experience led Rhett Butler to begin writing a book about rainforests and
threats to their existence.But he did not publish the book.Instead,in 1999,he used
his research for the book to create a website.The site is Mongabay.com.
Rhett Butler named the site for Nosy Mangabe,an island of Madagascar.His purpose
was to inform the public about tropical rainforests.But the subject widened.He,
a former businessman,became a respected writer of science and environmental stories.
The popularity of Mongabay.com.attracted advertisers.Small ads on the site pay
for its operations.Mongabay has grown and led to other sites.For example,there is
a site for children,kids.mongabay.com.Another one,Wild Madagascar.org.,is all
about the island nation that Rhett Butler calls his favorite place.
He travels the world on several major trips each year.His working tools are a
laptop computer,cameras and sometimes diving equipment.
He often calls on experts for information for stories.For example,he interviewed
Alison Jolly,a top expert on ringtailed lemurs(狐猴).And last week he wrote about
another animal,the rare snow leopard.
Stories like these have made Mongabay a favorite place on the Internet for
researchers,students and teachers.Rhett Butler says he is concerned about how
the current economic crisis in the world might affect environmental conservation
efforts.For example,he says the falling price of oil could reduce interest in
developing solar power.

A.promote his website

C.draw people's attention to environmental protection

beaches caused by rising sea level and more intense storms adds the potential for
further dangers to nesting beaches where people,dogs and rats already prey (捕
食) on the eggs of sea turtles.
Climate change directly affects the reproduction of sea turtles in three
ways.First,sea level rise will affect significant nesting beach areas on lowlevel
sand beaches such as Bonaire,the Maldives and the Great Barrier Reef.Second,rising
temperatures increase the chance that sand temperature will exceed the upper limit
for egg incubation (孵化) which is 34℃.Third,rising temperatures bias (使偏向)
the sex ratio toward females because temperature during incubation determines the
sex of the egg.Loggerhead turtle nests in Florida are already producing 90 percent
females owing to high temperatures,and if warming raises temperatures by an
additional 1℃ or more,no males will be produced there.
Adult feeding patterns are also affected by climate change.Sea grass beds are
in decline,water temperature is higher on intertidal sea grass flats,and coral
reefs,typically feeding grounds for green turtles,are affected by bleaching.
Sea turtles have existed for more than 100 million years and have survived ice
ages.As a result,they may be able to respond to unfavourable nesting temperatures
as they have in the past,by seeking out new nesting sites.It may,however,take
decades or centuries for sea turtles to reestablish and stabilise their habitats,
and steady human development of coastal areas makes the availability of new habitat
for them very limited.
9.We can learn from the first paragraph that .
A.loss of nesting beaches is the only threat to sea turtles
B.dogs are not allowed to come close to sea turtles
C.sea turtles are under strict protection now
D.sea turtles now face many threats

What to do with orphaned(没有父母的) wild animals
Lots of young animals are handed in to us as orphans but many of them actually
haven't been abandoned at all! If you're worried about a baby animal that seems to
be alone,read our advice below.If after that you're sure the animal has been
abandoned , either call us on 0300 1234 999 or find your nearest wildlife
rehabilitator.
I've found a baby...
Bat
People often think they have found a baby bat because they don't realise just
how small adult bats can be! The Bat Conservation Trust (08451300228) will be able
to help you and put you in touch with your local bat carer.If you find what you think
is a baby bat you need to treat it very carefully—if you have to pick it up,handle
it with gloves,or use a soft towel. It might be possible to return the bat to the
mother,depending on where you found it.
Bird
真正的价值并不在人生的舞台上,而在我们扮演的角色中。
51
If the bird is under a possible nest site,watch it from a distance to see if
the parents are still feeding it.Cats and other predators catch young birds and drop
them. If you know this has happened,the bird should be taken to a vet or a wildlife
centre.
Hare
Leverets,baby hares,are left alone as soon as they're born.This is a type of
survival strategy,so that the mother hare doesn't put all her eggs in one basket!
She'll return to feed her babies once a day at dusk,so don't disturb them.If you're
worried,watch them from a distance to see if the mum comes back.
13.The purpose of this passage is to .
A.introduce some animals
B.tell us how to know if an animal is abandoned
C.save abandoned animals
D.protect animals
【解析】 推理判断题。根据文章的标题以及第一段中的“If you're worried about a
baby animal that seems to be alone,read our advice below.”可知 B 项正确。
【答案】 B
14.According to the passage,we know that .
A.many people don't know the size of an adult bat
B.one can pick up a baby bat using a stick
C.a bat carer is a person who abandons the baby bat
D.a bat carer is the owner of the baby bat
【解析】 推理判断题。根据 bat 后面一段中的“People often think they have found
a baby bat because they don't realise just how small adult bats can be!”可知,
人们不知道长大的蝙蝠是多么小。由此可知 A 项正确。当捡起蝙蝠时要戴手套或用软毛巾,
故 B 项错误。a bat carer 是指关爱蝙蝠的人或组织,故 C、D 两项不对。
【答案】 A
15.Which of the following is TRUE about the hare?
A.The mum hare leaves her babies when they have grown up.
B.The mum hare leaves her babies the moment they are born.
C.The mum hare doesn't care about her babies once she leaves them.
D.Many abandoned hares can be found.
【解析】 细节理解题。根据 hare 后面一段中的第一句“Leverets,baby hares,are
left alone as soon as they're born.”可知 B 项正确。

How to Protect the Endangered Animals
真正的价值并不在人生的舞台上,而在我们扮演的角色中。
58
Today many animals are endangered in the world.It's time for us human beings
to do something to save them.
Firstly,we should make laws to protect endangered animals.Get tough with those
who kill animals in danger to get large profit and punish them seriously.Only in
this way can fewer endangered animals lose their lives.
Secondly,we should create more nature reserves for animals to live in.Sending
animals to the zoo is not the best choice , but it's better than they are
killed.Besides,we can't destroy their habitats which they have adapted to.It is
when they live in the reserve and their habitats that their population will increase.
Lastly,we must regard animals as our close friends and share the world with
them.
