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.

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
( )40．This passage is mainly about ________.

Dolphins are not fish. They live in groups and have their own language.
Like some animals, dolphins use sounds to find their way around. They also use these sounds to talk to each other and to find food. They do not use their ears to receive sounds, but use the jaw—the lower (下方的) part of the mouth.
Dolphins are friendly to men. And for thousands of years, there are many stories about dolphins and men. In the 19th century, in the sea near New Zealand, there was a dolphin. People on ships liked him very much and gave him a very good name, Jack. From 1871 to 1903, Jack met many ships and showed them the way. In 1903, a man on a ship with the name of The Penguin hurt Jack. Luckily, the dolphin didn’t die, and after a long time he was well again. He showed ways for ships for nine more years, but he didn’t help the ship The Penguin again.
Today, some people still kill dolphins, but many countries in the world now protect them. There are laws to stop people from killing them.

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.

Dolphins are not fish. They live in groups and have their own language.
Like some animals, dolphins use sounds to find their way around. They also use these sounds to talk to each other and to find food. They do not use their ears to receive sounds, but use the jaw—the lower (下方的) part of the mouth.
Dolphins are friendly to men. And for thousands of years, there are many stories about dolphins and men. In the 19th century, in the sea near New Zealand, there was a dolphin. People on ships liked him very much and gave him a very good name, Jack. From 1871 to 1903, Jack met many ships and showed them the way. In 1903, a man on a ship with the name of The Penguin hurt Jack. Luckily, the dolphin didn’t die, and after a long time he was well again. He showed ways for ships for nine more years, but he didn’t help the ship The Penguin again.

【答案】
I like tigers best. They are big and strong. They have bright eyes and orange fur with dark stripes. Tigers can run very fast but only for a short while. They are good at swimming and climbing. They like to live alone.
However, tigers are in great danger now. They are losing more and more living areas. What’s worse, hunters catch tigers for their fur, bones and other parts of the body. We should take action right away. We can make laws to stop people from hunting them. We shouldn’t buy any fur coats any more. Moreover, we can build more nature reserves to provide enough food and cover for them. Let’s act together.
