阅读下列短文, 从下面每小题的A、B、C、D四个选项中选出最佳选项。
A
Some parents worry about their kids playing sports. Many of them wonder if football is too dangerous. At least two young football players have recently been hurt very badly.
Football is a contact sport. Football players can get hurt. One college football player said that he had had four or five concussions. He also said that getting hurt is one of the risks players have to take.
A football coach said that players can be taught how to play safely. Playing safely can make the risk of injury (伤害) less. Practice and good instruction are very important. The coach also said that life threatening injuries are rare.
Sometimes children are seriously hurt while playing a sport. They have to be taken to the hospital. Football is not the sport that sends most kids to the hospital. Kids that are hurt while playing basketball are sent to the hospital more often than those playing football. People can get hurt when playing almost any sport.
At least half of all sports injuries to children happen during practice, not games. Therefore, it is always important to play safely.【出处:21教育名师】

We have known many endangered animals. However, how should we protect them? In my opinion, the first way to protect them is to learn about them as much as possible. If we know more about them and their living places, it is much easier for us to help them. Then, many organizations are fighting to save endangered animals, so join one. Next, to save these animals, we mustn’t destroy their living places and capture their food. If they have enough places to live and food to eat, they will live well. Last, don’t use products made of fur and leather.
