16、An endangered species is a group of animals that could soon die out. Many species could disappear very soon if we don’t do anything to save them. There are many reasons why species become endangered but most of them are because of humans. However, there are things that we can do to save endangered species.

Habitatdestruction is the main reason why animals become endangered. When humans move into a new area, the （栖息地）animals’ habitat is destroyed and there is nothing to eat because humans cut down trees and build houses and farms.

Endangered species are also the result of overhunting and overfishing. Some seal species are endangered because they are killed for their fur to make coats. Tigers are shot to make medicine and crocodiles are caught to make bags and shoes. Other animals are killed for their fur, bones or skin, or just for sports. Overfishing means that large sea animals like whales and sharks have all become endangered species, because too many are caught to make things like shark’s fin soup.

So what can people and governments do to protect animals and stop species from becoming endangered? We should not pollute natural areas, and the public can help by not buying any products that are made from animals’ body parts, such as seal fur coats or crocodile bags. Governments can help, too, by making it against the law to hunt, fish, buy or sell endangered species. They can also provide money for nature reserves and zoos. If we all work together by taking these steps, we will protect our planet so that our children and their children can keep living in harmony with other creatures, too. 1. What is the writing purpose of this passage? A. To call for actions to save endangered animals. C. To introduce different endangered animals.

B. To explain why animals are endangered.

D. To tell why we need to protect endangered animals.

2. What does the underlined word “destruction” in Paragraph 2 probably mean? A. development

B. protection

C. damage

D. pollution

3. What can we learn from this passage?

A. Human’s movement is good for animals’ habitat.

B. Governments can hardly help stop species from becoming endangered. C. Some seal species are killed to make medicine.

D. Human activities are the main reason why animals are endangered.

4. Which of the following best shows the structure of the passage (P1=paragraph 1)?

A. B. C. D.

例文

My View on School Uniforms

At our school, we have to wear uniforms every day. The problem is that all my classmates think the uniforms are ugly. They think young people should look smart and so we would like to wear our own clothes. Our teachers believe that if we did that we will concentrate more on our clothes than our studies. But I disagree with them. We should feel more comfortable and that is good for studying. If we can’t do that, we should be allowed to design our own uniforms. We also think everyone should be different from others. That would be a good way to keep both teachers and students happy. 【解析】
