The Moduleed Nations wanted everyone to know that the world is in da
15、nger. They hoped that government would act quickly in order to conserve nature. Here is one example of the problem. At one time there were, 1,300 different plants, trees and flowers inHolland, but now only 860 remain. The others have been destroyed by modern man and his technology. We are changing t
16、he earth, the air and water, and everything that grows and lives. We cant live without these things. If we continue like this, we shall destory ourselves.What will happen in the future? Perhaps it is more important to ask,“What must we do now?”The people who will be living in the world of tomorrow a
17、re the young of today. A lot of them know that conservation is necessary. Many are helping to save our world. They plant trees in forests, build bridges across rivers, and so on. In a small town in the Moduleed States a large group of girls cleaned the banks of eleven kilometers of their river. Youn
18、g people may hear about conservation through a record called NO ONES GOING TO CHANGE OUR WORLD. It was made by the Seattles, Cliff Richard and other singers. The money from it will help to conserve wild animals.36There are fewer plants, trees and flowers in Holland now because _.AHolland does not ne
19、ed so many plants, trees or flowersBmany plants, trees and flowers dont grow there any moreCsome of them are uselessDthey are polluted37We shall destroy ourselves if we dont_.Ago on cutting the plantsBbuild bridges across riversCtry our best to save the worldDconserve wild animals38NO ONES GOING TO
20、CHANGE OUR WORLD was_.Aan important book published in 1970Ba talk given by an official from the United NationsCa record calling on people to conserve natureDa film made to protect nature39What is the most important thing for us to do to save our world?AWe should join the singers to collect money.BWe
21、 should stop hunting wild animals.CWe should know what would happen in the future.DWe should know what we should do and begin to do it now.BScientists have recently discovered that animals that live in groups, such as elephants, foxes, and wolves, are more likely to follow rules. If they dont, and e
22、ach does its own thing, the group will probably break apart. Group members would be forced to live alone, and would have a harder time hunting and raising their young. Thats probably why a traveling wolf pack was seen stopping and waiting for its limping (跛行的) leader to catch up. Similar social ties
23、 are believed to be responsible for a captive elephant saving her friend from drowing.Sometimes, though, animals try their best to do whats right, even when theres nothing in it for them. Nobody knows exactly why.“It might simply feel good to be kind, just as it does for humans,”says Bekoff. If your
24、 friend wasnt nice to you, what would you do? Maybe you would just walk away. Thats exactly what a wild red fox did when she was playing boxing with another fox.Toby was a generous cat. For ten years, the kind kitty shared his food with a spaniel (长耳狗) named Katie. After supper, owner Linda Gustafso
25、n always divided up the table scraps. Shed drop some in Katies bowl on the floor and some in Tobys dish on the kitchen counter. Gustafson kept the cats dish up high to keep Katie from stealing Tobys treats. As it turned out, Katie didnt need to steal; she only had to beg. Every night, the spaniel at
26、e her food in a few seconds. Then shes sit and stare at the cat and every night. Toby would be nice. Using his paw, hed flick several pieces of tasty food down to the waiting pup. Apparetnly Katie appreciated it, because whenever she was curled up in her beanbag bed and the cat walked over, she woul
27、d give up her nice, warm spot.“Toby would then lie down in center of the beanbag,”says Gustafson, “and Katie would lie on the floor.”40The reason why some animals prefer to live in groups lies in that _.Athey have to follow natural rulesBthey are afraid of staying aloneCthey cannot find food by themselvesDliving alone would make their lives harder41According to Bekoff, animals try their best to do whats right because _.Ait feels good to be kind
