Many of the Earth's creatures die because of humans' choices. These choices have nothing to do with food or shelter or anything else that helps humans survive. What kills millions of animals all over the world is that humans want to make money by doing so.

People use parts of animals for everything from hats to handbags, from jewelry to ashtrays and to make powders that supposedly improve a person's life. Deciding that a species is endangered and protecting it by law are not always enough. People who kill wildlife illegally rarely get caught.

During the late 1980s, saving elephants became a popular cause. Wildlife protection groups made sure everyone saw pictures or films of elephants with their faces cut off for their ivory. These groups also proved that certain populations of elephants were decreasing. As a result, most people stopped buying objects made of ivory. Laws against poaching (偷猎) were made stronger. Many countries made importing ivory illegal. Killing elephants for their Ivory became more risky and less profitable (有利可图的).

However, concern for certain species will become weak after a while. In the late 1970s, people protested (抗议) against the killing of seal babies. Everyone was shocked to see young seals being killed in their icy habitat. The cruel activity stopped. But ten years later, the number of seal babies killed was higher than ever.

Other animal protection movements have come and gone, such as saving the whales and protecting dolphins. The whale population appears to have increased for now. And the laws are finally changed in America to protect the dolphins that swim with tuna fish in parts of the Pacific Ocean.

In the years to come, people's attention will probably turn to some other endangered species. Plenty of them urgently need attention. During this time, will the elephants be forgotten?

1.What leads to the disappearance of millions of wild animals?

A.The growing human population.

B.Humans’ hope for making a fortune.

C.Humans’ too much need for wild food.

D.Not having enough laws on wildlife protection..

2.What can you infer from the text about what happened in the late 1980s?

A.Wildlife protection groups did make great efforts.

B.Importing ivory in all countries is illegal.

C.Those who killed elephants all got caught.

D.Hunting was completely not allowed.

3.Why are seal babies mentioned in Paragraph 4?

A.To show the effort to protect seal babies.

B.To show an increasing number of seal babies.

C.To show the decrease of worry about certain species.

D.To show people’s protest against the killing of seal babies.

4.What does the author mean by using the underlined sentence?

A.Humans should choose some rare animals to protect.

B.Attention must be paid to saving some endangered wildlife.

C.Success has been achieved in quite a few cases of wildlife protection.

D.Concern and movements for animal protection should be always kept.

（London）—If it really is what’s on the inside that counts, then a lot of thin people might be in trouble.

Some doctors now think that the internal fat surrounding important organs like the heart or liver could be as dangerous as the external fat which can be noticed more easily.

“Being thin doesn’t surely mean you are not fat,” said Dr Jimmy Bell at Imperial College. Since 1994, Bell and his team have scanned nearly 800 people with MRI machines to create “fat maps” showing where people store fat.

According to the result, people who keep their weight through diet rather than exercise are likely to have major deposits of internal fat, even if they are slim.

Even people with normal Body Mass Index scores can have surprising levels of fat deposits inside. Of the women, as many as 45 percent of those with normal BMI scores (20 to 25) actually had too high levels of internal fat. Among men, the percentage was nearly 60 percent.

According to Bell, people who are fat on the inside are actually on the edge of being fat. They eat too many fatty and sugary foods, but they are not eating enough to be fat. Scientists believe we naturally store fat around the belly first, but at some point, the body may start storing it elsewhere.

Doctors are unsure about the exact dangers of internal fat, but some think it has something to do with heart disease and diabetes. They want to prove that internal fat damages the body’s communication systems.

The good news is that internal fat can be easily burned off through exercise or even by improving your diet. “If you want to be healthy, there is no short cut. Exercise has to be an important part of your lifestyle,” Bell said.

1.What is this piece of news mainly about?

A. Thin people may be fat inside.

B. Internal fat is of no importance.

C. Internal fat leads to many diseases.

D. Thin people also have troubles.

2.Doctors have found _____.

A. the exact dangers of internal fat

B. internal fat is the cause of heart disease and diabetes

C. being slim is not dangerous at all

D. being slim doesn’t mean you are not fat inside

3.According to the passage, which of the following is WRONG?

A. Exercise can help to reduce the internal fat.

B. People can get rid of internal fat by improving diet.

C. Men are more likely to have too much internal fat.

D. People with heart disease all have internal fat.

4.From the last paragraph, we can find that _____.

A. whether internal fat can lead to disease has been proved

B. exercise plays in important role in people’s life for keeping healthy

C. thin people usually have internal fat even if they are slim

D. it is easier to burn off internal fat than external fat
