阅读理解：
1. C 推断题。 本题依据是文章第四段 “They are more than just a source of food. Every animal has its place in the balance of nature. Destroying one kind of animal can create many problems.” 可以推断出动物的作用不仅可以向人们提供食物、快乐和有趣，其主要的作用是保持生态平衡。注意 “more than ” 的意思是 “不仅仅”，含有下面有更重要的要说的意思。所以答案选C项。
2． B 细节题。 从文章中第二段的 “Thousands of kinds of animals have disappeared from the earth forever.”可以找到答案。
3．A 因果推断题。 本题的依据是文章的第二段中 “Animals have been killed for their fur and feathers, for food, for sport, …” 可推出答案A选项正确。
4．C 推理题。 本题依据是文章最后一段，尤其最后一句 “… These laws forbid the killing of any animals or plants on the danger list. Slowly, the number of some animals in danger is growing.” 可以推知 很多国家制定法律的原因是濒临灭绝动物的数量在不断的增加，所以有必要立法保护。
B
5. C 词义理解题。原句的意思是“三个野营的人简单地吃了顿晚饭”，其中 “light”的意思是“少量的；不大的”，而C中的 “a light rain”的意思是“小雨”与题目相符合，所以答案为C项。
6. A 细节题。 本题依据是文中第九段的 “It seems hard to believe that animals could be in danger in a place as beautiful as this” 可知答案为A项。
7.C 判断推理题。 做该题时要审准题目，该题的意思是：目前造成动物濒临灭绝的哪个因素没有提到，而文章中第十段中提到的 “In the past, uncontrolled (失去控制的 ) hunting was the main cause of animal extinction. But now, many wild animals in the United States are protected by laws.” 可知答案。
8.B 判断题。 A、C、D三项都有利于保护野生动物，而去有野生动物的地方野营当然会对动物不利，所以答案应选B项。
9.D 判断题。 A项与文章的第一段第一句不符；B项与文中第十段的 “That’s why my paper is so important” 相背；C项与文章的最后一句意思不一致；D项和文章的倒第二段的最后一句相符，所答案选D项。
C
10.C 主旨大意题。 本文第二段中的 “There is an organization called “The American Humane Society”, in other words, AHS. This organization makes sure that no animals are hurt or killed in movies. Before AHS started, many animals were hurt or killed during movie-making.”就谈到为了在电影制作中保护动物，从而产生了 “AHS”。
11.A 细节题。 依据是第二段的第二句“This organization makes sure that no animals are hurt or killed in movies.” AHS的成立是为了在电影制作中保护参加演出的动物。所以答案为A选项。
12.C 正误判断题。 本题从第二段中 “In that movie, the special-trained actor rode his horse off a mountain cliff and jumped into a river.” 可知C项与原文不符，故选C项。
13.B 细节题。 文章第三段中的 “In that movie, the special-trained actor rode his horse off a mountain cliff and jumped into a river.”可知由于有了AHS的保护，电影中的动物使用动物特技了。

Save the Animals
Animals are natural resources (资源) that people have wasted all through our history.
Animals have been killed for their fur and feathers (羽毛), for food, for sport, and simply because they were in the way. Thousands of kinds of animals have disappeared from the earth forever. Hundreds more are on the danger list today. About 170 kinds in the United States alone are considered in danger.
Why should people care Because we need animals. And because once they are gone, there will never be any more.
Animals are more than just beautiful or interesting. They are more than just a source of food. Every animal has its place in the balance (平衡) of nature. Destroying one kind of animal can create many problems.
For example, when farmers killed large numbers of hawks (鹰), the farmers’ stores of corn and grain were destroyed by rats and mice. Why Because hawks ate rats and mice that multiplied (繁殖) quickly.
Luckily, some people are working to help save the animals. Some groups raise money to let people know about the problem. And they try to get the governments to pass laws protecting animals in danger.
Quite a few countries have passed laws. These laws forbid (禁止) the killing of any animals or plants on the danger list. Slowly, the number of some animals in danger is growing.

On Tuesday, Uncle Max joined Tom and his family for dinner. Passing the green beans, he said, “Tom, I was wondering if you’d like to go camping in the mountains with me this weekend.”
Tom hesitated (忧郁) for a moment. Then he said, “I’m not sure, Uncle Max. What did you have in mind ”
“Well, I have to write a story about endangered animals for the paper. That’s why I thought it would be a good idea if I went up to the mountains. Let’s face it, I just won’t get a feel for nature if I stay in my apartment in the city.”
“Do you mean those animals are in danger of something ” asked Tom.
“That’s exactly what I mean,” said Uncle Max. “We keep cutting down forests and building shopping centers where these animals used to live. People have to see that there’s a problem, which is why my story is so important.”
“Sure, I’ll go camping with you, Uncle Max,” Tom said. “Would you mind if my friend Lance came along ”
“That’s fine with me, “ answered Uncle Max.
On Saturday morning. Uncle Max and the boys got an early start. The mountain scenery was wonderful. Once they’d chosen a campsite, the boys looked for firewood. The three campers enjoyed a light supper and sat back to relax in their peaceful surroundings.
“It seems hard to believe that animals could be in danger in a place as beautiful as this,” Lance said.
“You’re right, Lance,” Uncle Max said. “That’s why my paper is so important In the past, uncontrolled (失去控制的 ) hunting was the main cause of animal extinction. But now, many wild animals in the United States are protected by laws. These laws limit hunting and fishing.”
“What is endangering animals now ” Tom asked.
“Some of their homes are being destroyed by pollution. In other cases the land is being used for homes, farms, and highways. That leaves less room for animals to live and grow in,” said Uncle Max.
“What can be done to save them ” Lance asked.
“Some land has to be set aside as national parks or wildlife shelters (躲避). Game wardens (狩猎监督员)have to watch out for people who are hunting out of season or fishing without a license. Although most hunters are responsible, there are still some people who have no respect for wildlife,” Uncle Max sighed.
“I’m glad you invited us. Uncle Max,” Tom said. “I just didn’t know how much animals depend on us for their survival. Your story will help all of us.”

Have you ever seen a movie in which an animal was hurt or killed
Do you think this was a cruel thing to do to an animal There is an organization called “The American Humane Society”, in other words, AHS. This organization makes sure that no animals are hurt or killed in movies. Before AHS started, many animals were hurt or killed during movie-making. The first time that an animal was hurt happened in 1939. In that movie, the special-trained actor rode his horse off a mountain cliff and jumped into a river. The actor was OK, but the horse died. A great many people were angry about this. so, after that, the AHS became advisors to moviemakers.
Have you seen a cowboy movie in which a group of soldiers or cowboys are riding horses into a battle Sometimes it looks as though the horses are shot and fall down. They’re never hurt when they do this. Moviemakers also use another technique called “animal-tronics” technology. In this, they make electronic animals that look like real animals.
