Thousands of years ago, in the south of ancient China, there lived Shennong, a man who had an ox(牛) head and human body. Seeing that local people were suffering from disease, he built ladders and houses on a high mountain to store hundreds of medical plants. To remember him, people named the place shennongjia.
The legend(传说) makes Shennongjia in Hubei an inviting place for tourists. Traveling there is a unique experience, as you can see sceneries of the four seasons from different altitudes.“When the bottom of the mountain is summer, the top is spring and while the foothill is autumn, the top is covered with ice,” local people say of the special climate of Shennongjia.
Shennongjia is also home to 5,000 species of animals and plants. Many animals in danger live there, such as the golden monkey, the clouded leopard and the Asian black bear.
One interesting and mysterious thing about Shennongjia is its legend of wild men. Some people once claimed that they saw big prints or big-foot creatures. Yet so far, scientists haven’t proved it is true and some say they are just bears.
The beautiful place has recently received a new title. On July 17, 2016, Shennongjia Forestry District was added to United Nations World Heritage list as a natural site. China now has 50 world heritage sites(遗址). Second only to Italy in the world.
1.Which of the following is RIGHT about Shennong ________

There are many kinds of tigers all over the world, and the largest tiger is Northeast tiger, also called Siberian tiger. The largest Northeast tiger can be over two meters long and weigh more than 200 kilos. Some Northeast tigers live in the northeast of China, like Heilongjiang Province and Jilin Province，because there are many forests and mountains in these areas. The tigers usually like living there. In the forests and mountains, there are fewer people living there. Therefore, few people get out and come in. So the tigers are very free. They can live a quiet life. They can run after each other, catch and eat some animals, like rabbits.

The long trunk of an elephant is a wonderful example of skill. The neck of four-footed animals is usually long, to have them reach their food without difficulty, but the elephant has a short neck, to make him more easily support the weight of his huge head and heavy teeth. His long trunk lets him get his food easily.
The trunk of an elephant is to him what the neck is to other animals. It is also a nose to him, for at the end of it there is an empty place like a cup, and in the bottom of the cup there are two holes, and the animal smells and breathes through them. It is an arm and a hand too, so that it has been said that the elephant carries his nose in his hand, and it might also have been said that he breathes by his hand.
At the end of the trunk, there is a strange part, about five inches long, which forms a finger. With this finger the animal can pick up the smallest piece of money from the ground, and he has been taught to make marks like letters with a pen.
The trunk of a full-grown elephant is about eight feet long. The elephant has such great strength that he can knock down a man with it.

五、信息摘录
We need animals. Every animal has its place in the balance (平衡)of nature. We should try to help save the animals.
Some people think zoos are good places. The zoos give the animals comfortable and safe living places. If the animals get hurt or ill, people will take care of them. The zoo is a good place to know the rules in the wild world. We can be much closer to nature. We can know more about the animals in the zoos by watching, listening, and even smelling instead of just looking at the pictures in books.
Some people don't think animals feel happy in the zoos. Animals like pandas, wolves and bears usually live in the wild. They play and find food by themselves. They are free and happy in the wild. If they are in the zoos, food is enough and rooms are comfortable. They do not need to do their best to find food to eat or places to stay in. They just walk around,sleep day and night,but they are not free at all.
I think we should build national parks as wildlife nature reserves to protect animals. If we do nothing, animals will get fewer and fewer.
Help save the animals
In the 1 The zoos 2 the animals comfortable and safe living places. People will look 3 the animals if they get hurt or ill. People can be much 4 to nature.

I think we should build national parks to 10 animals.

Dear Editor,
I've just read an article on the Internet about saving tigers. It says that the number of tigers is becoming smaller in our country. It’s terrible. I saw a few people selling bones of tigers by the roadside the other day. I also learned that some people killed tigers in order to make money. And too many trees have been cut down. The places where tigers used to live have been destroyed. Tigers are in danger of dying out.
To save tigers, our government should punish the hunters. At the same time, we should try our best to make our earth pleasant and peaceful, not only for human beings but also for animals.
Yours faithfully,
Li Hua
