Black and white stripes (条纹) make the zebra one of the most recognizable animals in the world. In all there are three species (种类) of zebras in the world. The plains zebra has the largest number of the three species. They live in eastern and southern Africa. The other two species are Grévy's zebra and mountain zebra.
On average, plains zebras are smaller than the other two species of zebras. They are usually 1 to 1.5 meters tall. They can weigh almost 400 kg. Plains zebras also have different stripes from the other two species. They have wider stripes than those of the other two species. You may not believe it, but no two zebras have exactly the same stripes.
Zebras have very good hearing and eyesight, which help keep them safe. They can run 56 km/h and give a strong kick. If one zebra finds a predator (捕食者), it lets out a sharp call. The young and female (雌性)zebras run, while the males run behind to protect them. If one is in danger, others circle around to help protect it from predators.
Plains_zebras_are_herbivores:_they only feed on grass or leaves. Zebras' back teeth continue to grow all their lives so that they can keep eating.
When not eating or traveling, zebras sleep. In fact, they sleep standing up! But zebras only sleep when they are in large groups.
A plains zebra family usually has a male, several females, and their children. These family groups will often join with other families to form large groups. Zebras can live up to 25 years in the wild.

A．They can grow at least 1.5 meters tall.
B．Some of them may have the same strips.
C．They live in northern and southern Africa.
D．Their number is larger than that of Grévy's zebras.

2．What does a zebra do if it sees a predator
A．It gets ready to kick.
B．It makes a sound to warn others.
C．It circles the predator with others.
D．It runs away quickly with female zebras.
解析：选B 细节理解题。根据第三段的“If one zebra finds a predator (捕食者), it lets out a sharp call.”可知，在这种情况下，斑马会发出警告声。

A．Plains zebras are very lazy.
B．Plains zebras only eat plants.
C．Plains zebras live a relaxing life.
D．Plains zebras' food is very simple.

4．What is the habit of a zebra
A．It likes lying on the ground.
B．It never stays in the same place.
C．It dislikes living with other families.
D．It doesn't try to sleep when it is alone.

When seven year old Sky Nockels learned that black rhinos (犀牛) were an endangered species, he decided to do something to help them. He raised money to adopt a black rhino named Imara at the Great Plains Zoo in South Dakota. By adopting Imara, Sky helps the zoo take care of the rhino's needs, such as food and a good habitat.
Sky has been a summer camp member at the Great Plains Zoo since he was three. There he and other kids learnt about the animals and do projects for them. “We made juice drinks for the bears，” says Sky. “They enjoyed them.” Another time, he made holes in cardboard tubes and filled them with vegetables for the monkeys. The monkeys had fun plucking (摘) their food from the tubes.
Now that Sky is older, he is playing an even more active role in the care of the animals. Since black rhinos are one of Sky's favorite animals, he decided to adopt Imara first. “I adopted a Grevy's zebra named Deman, too, for my little brother Alexander，” he says.
Sky raised money to help care for the animals he wanted to adopt. He promised to raise $75 for his rhino and $25 for Alexander's zebra. To earn the money, Sky and his grandfather planted a vegetable garden. Sky planted seeds (种子), watered, and weeded (除草). When the time came, he harvested the vegetables and sold them at a stand in front of his parents' store.
When Sky's friends heard about the stand, they brought vegetables from their parents' garden to sell, too. With the help of his friends, he earned enough money to honor his promises.
Sky is one of the youngest people to adopt an animal at the Great Plains Zoo. He cares about the animals and plans to plant and sell vegetables again this summer to help them. “I hope other children do something to help animals, too，” he says.
