A Girl Who Loves Animals
When Abbi Hickman was just a little girl, she made friends with many animals. Chickens, cats, dogs, rabbits, and sometimes goats were just some of the animals she cared for. At the age of nine, Abbi went to the Tracy Animal Center to adopt (收养) Sheldon, her cat. In the center, she saw that the animals did not have enough food and they lived in poor conditions. Abbi knew that she must do something to help those animals.
For the last three years, she has held different activities to collect money for the Tracy Animal Center. She has collected more than$30,000 resulting in a better home for the animals.
“The center gets the money and pays for the vet (兽医) care and food. It’s nicer and they have more space. It’s cleaner. It is far better, a hundred percent better,” Abbi says.
To show Abbi has done something excellent to protect animals, she was named the 2015 ASPCA (美国防止虐待动物协会) Kid of the Year.
“I was pretty excited. I’m really happy to receive it,” she says.
Offering time and effort to help animals can sometimes be difficult, but Abbi hopes to do more. “I just hope that more people can come and join us. If more people can give money to the program, we can help more animals. I really hope people are kinder to animals and respect them more,” says Abbi. She is also working on “welcome home boxes” for the Tracy Animal Center. These boxes of pet supplies (宠物用品) would go home with everyone adopting a dog or cat at the center.
The advice she has for kids like her is, “Nothing is impossible. You can do anything if you put your mind to it. Even if it is something small, it can make a huge difference.” Abbi’s work has made the lives of animals better, and she plans to keep coming up with new ways to help them.
1.What did Abbi do when she was nine years old ________
A.She adopted a cat. B.She held activities. C.She learned vet care. D.She collected money.
2.Why was Abbi named the 2015 ASPCA Kid of the Year ________
A.Because she did well at school. B.Because she built the animal center.
C.Because she helped protect animals. D.Because she taught kids how to care for animals.
3.What is the last paragraph mainly about ________
A.The success Abbi has made. B.The better lives Abbi has had.
C.The advice Abbi gave for kids. D.The new plan Abbi has thought up.
(二)阅读回答问题
Answer the questions(根据以下内容回答问题)
Some animals help humans. For example, specially trained dogs help blind people walk around the town safely. Some kinds of monkeys can be taught things too. They can learn how to help people who can’t use their arms or legs. The monkeys pick up the phone when it rings, carry shopping bags and do housework.
In the wild, animals and humans are not usually friends, but there are a few interesting examples where they can work together. In Africa, the honeyguide bird works with humans to find food. The bird likes to eat the grubs (幼虫)—a type of insect that lives inside a beehive (蜂窝). It knows how to find beehives but it can’t open them and get the grubs. People like to eat honey, but they aren’t very good at finding beehives, so the bird and the people help each other. The bird flies to a beehive and people follow it. When the people open the beehive and take the honey, they give the grubs to the bird.
In Laguna in the south of Brazil, fishermen and dolphins (海豚) work as a team. The ocean isn’t very clean, so the fishermen can’t see the fish. However, dolphins can find them easily by using sounds. When the dolphins find a large group of fish, they make a noise to tell the fishermen. Then the dolphins push the fish to the beach. The fishermen wait in the water near the beach and catch a lot of fish in their nets. The fishermen’s nets make it easier for the dolphins to catch fish too. In Laguna, fishermen and dolphins have been working together for many years. The fishermen teach their children how to work with the dolphins. The dolphins must be happy to help because they teach their babies how to work with the humans!

A recent report says that the global warming will lead the penguins to lose half or two thirds of their home. This is terrible. Animals are our good friends. Protecting animals is just protecting ourselves, so we must take action now.
However, how can we protect animals Here are my opinions. First, we should introduce some rules so that everybody knows what we should do. Second, more Zoos should be built to give animals better home. Third, we should try to make the number of wild animals increase quickly. I think the living conditions of all animals will improve if we really take measures to protect them.
