Elephant Mud Bath:A Cooling Skill

mud bath(泥浴).This was more than just play.Since elephants have very little hair and few sweat
glands(汗腺),it is hard for them to stay cool on hot days.Taking a mud bath after a water bath helps them stay cool.According to Kenya Wild Parks,when elephants cover themselves with mud,it keeps them from getting too much sun.
All dire wolves died over 10,000 years ago.But on April 7, a group of
US scientists said they brought them back for the first time, reported Time
Magazine.The scientists first studied two fossils(化石)of a dire wolf to learn the gene difference between the gray wolf and the dire wolf.Then,they used gene editing(基因编辑)to turn gray wolf cells(细胞)into dire wolf cells.

Thanks to a small zoo built in October 2023,children from a
welfare house(儿童福利院)in Qingdao,Shandong Province can see
animals even without leaving their rooms."The zoo is near the children's
rooms and they can see animals through the windows even while lying in bed,"said Cui Xueqing, head of the welfare house.
The idea for the zoo came from a story about a 16-year-old boy in the welfare house.He wished to see animals.He was seriously ill and Cui promised to take him to the zoo after he got well.However,the boy died before he could fulfill his wish. "I felt deeply sorry that I didn't help him," Cui said.
According to Cui, the welfare house has 127 children,with 92% of them having terrible disabilities (残疾).Some of them even need help with basic movements like turning over in bed.Noticing the children's hope for animals, Cui decided to build a small zoo in the welfare house to bring more joy to the children.
With the help of kind people,the welfare house now has many animals such as horses,sheep, alpacas and peacocks.There is also an experienced animal caregiver(护理员) taking care of the animals full-time.
When the weather is good,the teachers there often take the children to the zoo to play with the animals."I can feel their happiness.And their language abilities,observational(观察的)skills and imagination also improved through playing with animals,"said Yang Suhong, a leader of the welfare house.This small zoo makes a big difference in the lives of the children.

It might seem truly amazing,yet it's a fact that many wild animals “drink” alcohol(酒).This surprising discovery shows that the love for the special“drink”isn't only connected with humans.It also has deep connections with the natural world.
Monkeys,for example,have a lively and curious(好奇的)character that causes them to enjoy fermented(发酵的)fruits in the forest.These fruits have ethanol,a kind of alcohol.Scientists' study shows that this “alcohol-drinking”action among animals is far more common than we first thought. Ethanol appeared on Earth about 100 million years ago.Generally,most fermented fruits have 1~2%of alcohol, while some unusual ones can even reach up to 10%.
Amazingly, many animals are born with genes that help them process ethanol. ★___ However, for other animals,“drinking”ethanol can be dangerous.It can cause them to act strangely,much like the way alcohol affects humans.Some birds might lose their sense of direction and fly straight into trees. However,there are also good things about ethanol.It can give energy to animals, so it is important for them to live in the wild areas.
This thing opens a whole new and interesting window into the animal world.It clearly shows the differences and surprises of the animal world.It always makes us want to learn more.We become more and more interested in learning more about these amazing animals.

D.This kind of gene hardly appears in wild animals' bodies.
( ) 63.From Paragraph 3,we can infer that .
A.most animals can process ethanol easily
B.all birds don't have genes to process ethanol
C.it may be dangerous for some birds to drink ethanol
D.ethanol can give all wild animals energy
( )64.Which would be the best theme(主题)picture of the passage
( )65.Why does the writer write this passage
A.To ask readers to stop wild animals from drinking alcohol.

Save the wild Animals
The earth is home to both humans and wild animals. But today some wild animals are facing serious problems.
There are many endangered animals in the world, such as south china tigers and wild Bactrian camels. When farmers cut down trees, animals can no longer hide and hunt. Some people even kill them for their fur to make money. Factories also pour dirty water into the rivers, so they don ’t have enough clean water to drink.
We are not alone in the world. we human beings can’t live without all the plants and animals around us. So protecting wild animals is very important. We must take action to keep plants from being destroyed and to stop animals from being killed. we should actively do volunteer activities and hand out posters telling people to love wild animals. These steps are simple but useful. we should also do more research to protect them and build more reserves for them.
I believe everyone’s small action can make a big difference. Let ’s take action at once!
