Researchers are currently looking into whether dogs can be taught to accurately detect the novel coronavirus (COVID-19) in humans, even among people who are having no symptoms of illness.
Working together with Medical Detection Dogs and Durham University, the London School of Hygiene & Tropical Medicine is starting preparations on a project that aims to train dogs to sniff out the virus.
“It's early days for COVID-19 smell detection,” said James Logan, head of LSHTM's Department of Disease Control. “We do not know if COVID-19 has a specific smell yet, but we know that other respiratory(呼吸的) diseases change our body smell so there is a chance that it does. And if it does, dogs will be able to detect it.”
“Our previous work showed that dogs can detect smells from humans with a malaria (疟疾) infection with extremely high accuracy—above the World Health Organization standards for a diagnostic(诊断的),” he added.
Past studies have also found that dogs are able to detect lung cancer in human blood with 97 percent accuracy.
Researchers aim to teach dogs to identify coronavirus by having the doggy smell and identify samples in a training room, some of which will contain the virus.
After the training is complete, the dogs could be used to help provide non-invasive testing at airports and other public places—and could potentially screen up to 250 people per hour, according to the researchers.

Animals are natural resources that people have wasted all through our history. Animals have been killed for their fur and feathers, for food or for sports. Thousands of kinds of animals have disappeared from the Earth forever. Hundreds more are on the danger list today. About 170 kinds of animals 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 (摧毁) one kind of animal can cause many problems. For example, when farmers killed large numbers of hawks (老鹰) , the farmers stores of corn and grain were destroyed by rat sand mice. Why Because hawks eat rats and mice. With no hawks to keep down their numbers, the rats and mice increased 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 let the governments pass laws to protect animals in danger. Quite a few countries have passed laws. These laws keep people from killing any animal or plant on the danger list. Slowly, the number of some animals in danger is growing.

四、范文
Hello, everyone! I'm Helen. I would like to share my experience of protecting animals with you.
Last year, I raised money for the Save China's Pandas Project. What's more, I went to a wetland to watch the birds. I recorded their types and numbers. And I found that the number of the birds was becoming smaller and smaller.
In the future, I will let more and more people know the importance of protecting animals. I will try my best to make our hometown become a better place for animals.
In my opinion, animals are our friends. We should try our best to protect them, and provide a beautiful environment for them.
Thank you for your listening！

四、阅读理解
Once there were many thousands of Gourma Desert (沙漠) elephants in Mali, a country in West Africa. Now, there are fewer than four hundred.
Why did the number of the elephants drop so quickly On the one hand, the elephants' main lake, their only water source (来源), dried up. On the other hand, the land which the elephants lived on was overused by humans.
To protect the elephants' living environment, the Mali Elephant Project (MEP) was started in 2007. MEP met with local people and helped them make rules of using land and water. As a result, the situation became better and there was more food, forest and grassland.
However, from 2012 to 2016, poaching (偷猎) and illegal trade in the elephants increased rapidly. Eighty-three elephants were lost in 2015 alone, and another fifty-one elephant were killed in 2016. “If this situation goes on, all the Gourma elephants will be killed by 2020,” said a member of MEP.
Luckily, the voice of MEP was heard. More organizations (组织) have joined together to educate the local people that trading elephants is against the law. Elephant poaching has dropped to a very low level. The local people have learned to live peacefully with the elephants, one of the wildlife treasures in the world.
( )1. What’s the purpose of starting MEP
A. To raise more elephants in Mali.
B. To stop the main lake from drying up.
C. To discover water source for elephants.
D. To protect the elephants' living environment.
( )2. What does the word “illegal” in Paragraph 4 mean in Chinese
A. 公平的 B. 亏损的 C. 非法的 D. 合理的
( )3. When were eighty-three elephants lost
A. In 2012. B. In 2015. C. In 2016. D. In 2020.
( )4. What can we learn from the last paragraph
A. The number of organizations has dropped.
B. There is much less elephant poaching now.
C. The local people keep the elephants at home.
D. The whole world live peacefully with elephants.
( )5. What is this passage mainly about
A. The rules of using land and water. B. The education of the local people.
C. The work of Mali Elephant Project. D. The situation of Gourma Desert elephants.

五、参考例文。
My favorite animals are the lions. They live in Africa. They eat other animals, such as deer and sheep
Nowadays, they are in great danger. People kill thousands of them for their fur every year. And because of the serious environmental problems, there are fewer and fewer places for them. At the same time, some of them die of illnesses.
As far as I am concerned, it's our duty to do something to protect these animals. The government should set up more nature reserves for them. In addition, we should stop people from buying the products made of their fur in our daily life. When the buying stops, the killing stops, too.
