Ⅰ. 词汇串记
In the past many wild animals died out because of
climate or accident. But they today disappear or are in
danger just because humans do harm to them. For
example, Antelopes are hunted for fur to make carpets
or sweaters. So they have to live in reserves. Grassland
is destroyed without mercy. And storms even affect distant cities.
Last year, scientists saw some monkeys rubbing
themselves with a certain kind of trees to protect
themselves from mosquito biting. They also found that
the insect contains a powerful drug, so the local
farmers were employed to catch the insects. Soon the
insects disappeared from the whole zone. When told
that it was a loss to humans, the farmers burst into laughter and responded, “Our real loss is our decreasing income. ”
We should appreciate the natural balance and pay more attention to the importance of wildlife protection. Not until we succeed in letting wildlife live in peace, can we smile in relief.
