People live on Earth for many years. They live on different continents (陆地) and in different countries.
▲ That is why lots of animals are in danger. Indian tigers and African elephants are among them. People kill (杀害) many of them. But why?
Tigers are often dangerous animals. They can kill people's chickens, sheep and other farm animals and sometimes they can also kill men. So some people kill them for protecting their animals while some kill them just for money. Some people kill elephants for their teeth because they can sell them for lots of money.
The sad thing is that there are few Indian tigers on Earth now. Many of them are usually old sick animals and they don't kill people but stay away from them in dark forests. Or they try their best to stay away, because people are cutting down the forests. And there is a question: Do those animals get a future?"
We can ask the same question about African elephants. They are wonderful animals. They can help, and make people have fun. In the last century. Africa was full of elephants and now it is only history.

According to the International Union for Conservation of Nature, there are about 1,850 pandas in the wild in China now. In 2003, the number was 1,600. So it takes the panda off the Red List.
China's hard work in the past 50 years to save the panda is paying off. China sets up reserves(保护区) and plants a lot of bamboo forests. Now, about two thirds of pandas are living in the 67 panda reserves.
How did Chinese researchers successfully increase the number of pandas? They put in money, science, time and love. Here are two examples of their hard work.
Bamboo is pandas' main food. A panda needs 12kg-38kg of bamboo a day. In the 1980s, without enough food, the number of pandas dropped to just over 1,200. To save pandas, China sets up 67 panda reserves and plants a lot of bamboo forests there.
But there is still bad news. Our earth is getting warmer. It's going to get too hot for the bamboo to grow. More than a third of bamboo forests could go away within 80 years,scientists say. It's still dangerous for pandas.
(1)、About ____ pandas have been born since the year of 2003.A、250 B、1,600 C、1,850 D、3,450(2)、We can infer that China has been working on protecting pandas for about ____ years.A、10 B、30 C、50 D、60(3)、The underlined word "increase" in the fourth paragraph means "____".A、计算 B、控制 C、改变 D、增长(4)、According to the news, what bad condition is it for pandas now?A、Health problem.

9. 七选五(阅读短文,从7个选项中选择5个恰当的句子完成此对话,有两项多余)
Earth Day, which falls on April 22, is a day to call on more people to protect the natural world. This year's theme "Planet(行星)vs. Plastic" is especially important because plastic is harming our
environment in many ways. Plastic doesn't break down easily. To fight against pollution, we all need to do something.
Governments can make rules to limit the use of plastic and encourage people to recycle. Business should find way to use less plastic or use recycled plastic instead. International cooperation(合作) is of great importance, as many environmental problems need worldwide support.

10. 根据短文内容回答问题The red panda is a cute and interesting animal. It is small and has red - brown fur. Many red pandas live in the forests of Sichuan and Yunnan in China. They spend most of their time in the trees. They like to climb trees and are very good at it. The red panda has a big tail and it helps to keep its balance (平衡) when it climbs.
The red panda eats bamboo (竹子), just like the black and white panda. It also eats fruit and eggs. The red panda goes out to play and look for food at night and sleeps in the day. It doesn't like to be together with other red pandas.
Sadly, red pandas are in danger now. Their homes become smaller and sometimes they can't find food because people cut down trees for farming. Also, many people kill red pandas for their beautiful fur.
The red panda is a special and beautiful animal. We all should do what we can to help save them.
