Before you read, discuss these questions in pairs.
1 Look at the pictures below. What do you think the text is about
About the antelopes in Tibet
2. What do you know about the Tibetan antelope and the Changtang National Nature Reserve
The Tibetan antelope was an endangered animal, but because of human action to protect it, the population is now recovering.
The Changtang National Nature Reserve is in western China. It was created to protect the area and the wildlife that lives there.
A DAY IN THE CLOUDS
The air is thin and we have to rest several times on the short hike from camp. To our left, snow-covered mountains disappear into clouds that seem almost close enough to touch. On the plain in front of us, we can just make out a herd of graceful animals.This is why we’re here—to observe Tibetan antelopes.
Tibetan antelopes live on the plains of Tibet, Xinjiang,and Qinghai. Watching them move slowly across the green grass, I'm struck by their beauty. I'm also reminded of the danger they are in. They are being hunted, illegally, for their valuable fur.
My guide is Zhaxi, a villager from Changtang. He works at the Changtang National Nature Reserve. The reserve is a shelter for the animals and plants of northwestern Tibet. To Zhaxi, the land is sacred and protecting the wildlife is a way of life. "We' re not trying to save the animals,"he says. "Actually, we’re trying to save ourselves."
The 1980s and 1990s were bad times for the Tibetan antelope. The population dropped by more than 50 percent. Hunters were shooting antelopes to make profits.Their habitats were becoming smaller as new roads and railways were built.
In order to save this species from extinction, the Chinese government placed it under national protection. Zhaxi and other volunteers watched over the antelopes day and night to keep them safe from attacks. Bridges and gates were added to let the antelopes move easily and keep them safe from cars and trains.
The measures were effective. The antelope population has recovered and in June 2015, the Tibetan antelope was removed from the endangered species list. The government, however, does not intend to stop the protection programmes, since the threats to the Tibetan antelope have not yet disappeared.
In the evening, I drink a cup of tea and watch the stars. I think about the antelopes and what Zhaxi told me. Much is being done to protect wildlife, but if we really want to save the planet, we must change our way of life. Only when we learn to exist in harmony with nature can we stop being a threat to wildlife and to our planet.
Read the text quickly to choose whether the statements are right or wrong.

①【句式分析】Watching them move slowly 现在分词短语作状语。
【归纳拓展】
现在分词（短语）作状语表示时间、原因、条件、伴随、方式或结果等。从时间上看，现在分词的一般式表示的动作与谓语动词表示的动作同时发生或几乎同时发生；从语态上看，现在分词往往表示主动的动作，它的逻辑主语就是句子的主语。
（1）时间状语（相当于时间状语从句）
e.g.Having persuaded him to change his mind, I went on a journey with him. 说服他改变主意后，我跟他一块儿去旅行了。
（2）原因状语（相当于原因状语从句）
e.g.Being ill, the athlete couldn’t take part in the marathon.

【学法点拨】
现在分词否定式：not+ 现在分词
Not recovering from the operation, I couldn’t keep up with you.
【误区警示】
（1）现在分词表示结果时，指自然而然的结果。
（2）不定式也可以表示结果，是出乎意料的结果，且多与only 或 just 连用。
He hurried to the station, only to find the train had left. 他匆忙赶到车站，结果却发现火车已经开走了。
[即学即练] 单句语法填空
1.A city is the product of the human hand and mind, ________ (reflect) man’s intelligence and creativity.

[归纳拓展]
remind sb.of sth.提醒某人某事；使某人想起某事

①shoot vt. & vi. （shot，shot）射杀；射伤；发射
e.g.A woman was shot dead in a robbery.
【归纳拓展】
shoot at 向……射击（表示动作，不一定射中）
shoot……in the head/back/leg 射中的头部/背部/腿部
②profit n.[C，U］利润，收益，盈利；［U］利益，好处 v.对……有用 / 有益
【归纳拓展】
profit from/by 从……中受益；靠……获利

for
had intended
7. [教材原句]Only when we learn to exist in harmony with nature can we stop being a threat to wildlife and to our planet. 只有学会和自然和谐相处，我们才不会成为野生生物和地球的威胁。
【句式分析】该句中 only 后接 when 引导的时间状语从句，此时主句 应使用部分倒装。
【归纳拓展】“ only+ 状语（从句）”位于句首引起部分倒装
“ only + 状语（副词 / 介词短语 / 从句）”提至句首以示强调时，后面 的句子或主句要用部分倒装，即把助动词、情态动词或be 动词提到主语前面。
e.g.Only then did I recognize him. 直到那时我才认出他。
e.g.Only in this way can we calm the little girl down.
只有用这种方式我们才能让这个小女孩冷静下来。
【误区警示】
（1）only 修饰的状语可以是副词、介词短语，也可以是状语从句。 如果only 修饰的是状语从句，主句用倒装，从句本身不倒装。
Only when he is seriously ill does he ever stay in hospital.
只有当他病情严重时他才住院。
（2）“only + 状语（从句）”如果不放在句首，则不用倒装。
The boy was rescued only when his father arrived in a hurry.
那个男孩在父亲匆忙赶到后才获救。

The writer says that we must change our way of life and learn to live in harmony with nature in order to save our planet. Do you agree What do you think we should do or change
Discussion
Statement Reason Example
Yes, I agree with this point of view. The way we live now is harmful to the environment and wildlife animals. If we want to save our planet, we should change our lifestyles, for example, take bus instead of driving cars.
I don’t think we must change our way of life Because reserves have been set to protect wildlife animals, and some wildlife animals have been removed from the endangered list. Things are getting better and better. For example, Tibetan antelopes have been removed from the protecting list for people’s endless efforts.

Look at the posters again. Discuss the questions in groups.
1.What does each poster use to stir up emotions
The first poster uses an ugly picture of an animal to get a reaction from the reader, but then makes the point that this reaction is part of the problem, because all animals should be protected, not just ones we think are cute.
The second has a cute picture and the headline is written as if the koalas were speaking to the reader which may make them more sympathetic.
2.Who do you think is the intended audience for each poster Why do you think so
The posters are intended for everyone because they appeal to protecting our planet which we all live on, and to our paper consumption which we all rely on.
3.What does each poster want people to do How do you know
The first poster wants us to consider "ugly" animals just as important as cute ones, because it asks us directly to do that.
The second one wants us to be aware of our paper consumption. It doesn't tell us to change directly, but it appeals to our emotions to change because what we are doing is not fair to animals like koalas.
4.In your opinion, which poster is more effective Why
I think the "Give Ugly a Chance“ poster is more effective, because the viewer will react to the ugly animal first, but then read that this reaction is part of the problem that needs to be dealt with.
For example:
Work in pairs. Make a poster about an endangered animal.
1. Choose one of the animals below or one of your own. Do some research to add to the animal fact sheet.
South China Tiger
Why is it endangered Hunted for its skin and fur
Population: 0 in the wild; 30—80 still living
What is being done A plan is being carried out to
increase the number of wild tigers.
What can we do Do not buy fur or other tiger products!
Yangtze River Dolphin
Why is it endangered Habitat loss and pollution
Population:1,000—1,800
What is being done The dolphins are being moved
to a clean and safe habitat.
What can we do Clean up the rivers!
2. Follow these steps to organize your poster.
Write a title that is simple, interesting, and unusual, and then collect the information you need.
Write the name of the species and why it is endangered.
Use a powerful image to attract the readers’ attention to the facts and problems.
Tell the readers what you want them to think and do.
Possible Titles
Hug me!Save me!
Bring ... back!
Give ...a home!
Give ... a chance!
Don’t make ... with my ...!
Let ... be alone!
Give ... peace!
Let’s exist in harmony!
The future of wildlife is in our hands!
Don’t kill me, please!
Save it to cherish, or leave it to perish!
Preserve & Protect
Live and let live!
Don’t be that guy!
More caring, less hunting!
South China Tigers have gradually become an endangered species in the last few decades. They were hunted and killed by humans for their skin and fur. As the city became bigger, their habitats were seriously damaged and they could not find proper food in the wild. That is why South China Tigers cannot be seen in the wild.
At present there are only a few South China Tigers living in zoos! If we don't do something to save them, South China Tigers will die out soon.
A plan is being carried out to increase the number of wild tigers. What can we do We can start by not buying furs or other tiger products! Let us work together to give South China Tiger a Home!

2. How can we make people aware of the problems
By making posters, recording videos, establishing policies...
3. How will you change to protect wildlife
I am going to be a volunteer to advocate protecting wildlife.
I will ask my family do not buy any products made by the fur of wildlife animals.
In pairs, discuss the questions, role-play the example, and then talk about one of the animals in the photos below.
What do you know about the animals in the photos
What is being done to help them
Habitat Diet Endangered or not … (try to search information if you don’t know)
Nature reserve Official or non-official organisations Policies …
EXAMPLE:
A: I’m concerned about the African elephants. What do you know about them
B: Well, I know that they’re being hunted and their habitat is getting smaller, so they’re in danger of extinction. Elephants need large living spaces, so it’s difficult for them to adapt to the changes.
A: That’s terrible. What measures are being taken to help them
B: The authorities are under pressure to build elephants parks and tell people not to buy elephant products.

Project
Endangered animals are not the only animals that need help and protection. All animals need help at times, such as pets that are left homeless when their owners move or wounded birds that fall to the ground. They can be kept in an animal rescue centre for some time until they recover.
Here is part of a report about an animal rescue centre. Read the passage and then tell your partner about it. The questions may help you.
1.What is the rescue centre called
2.Who started it
3.What animals were rescued
4.What help does the centre need
Think about animals that need help. Plan an animal rescue centre for them. Discuss the questions in groups.
What will it be called
What skills or equipment do we need
What help could people offer
What can we do to help the animals
Where should the centre be built
What will it be called
—— Have a nice name for your own animal rescue centre.
What skills or equipment do we need
——think about: medical care, diet, place to live...
What help could people offer
—— pets’ food money
What can we do to help the animals
—— think about something we can do in daily life
Where should the centre be built
—— consider about the population of animals that need help, somewhere convenient to go, easy to gather crowds to join you…
Make a poster in which you describe your animal rescue centre and ask for help. Put up the poster on the classroom wall.
