Read the passage carefully and choose the correct answer.
The scarcity of tigers and African elephants is more and more serious. They are endangered
because poachers hunt them in order to sell tiger pelts and elephant ivory.
At least 4,000 elephants are killed each year in order to meet the global demand for ivory, which
is used to make carvings, jewelry and other products although it is illegal to sell ivory since 1989
anywhere.
“ Americans should be aware that there is still a problem with elephant poaching and loss to the
illegal ivory trade,” Ginette Hemley, Fund’s vice president for species conservation, told The Washington
Post in September. And so our message is “ Don’t buy it , and don’t take that chance”.
A Wildlife Fund report states that the United States seized 8,300 illegal ivory items between 1995
and 2002. Each week there are about 1,000 ivory auctions, the report said.
As for tigers, their parts are used in traditional Chinese medicine. Tiger bones are used as a pain
reliever in traditional medicine. Even tiger’s whiskers are sold because some people in Asia think they are
a good-luck charm – like a rabbit’s foot in the United States. “ Part of our job is education,” said
Professor Dillon. “ The other part is law enforcement. So we have more than one strategy.”
1. Hunters poach tigers for their ……………………… .
A. ivory B. pelts C. carving D. jewelry
2. Which sentence is NOT true.
A. Elephants are hunted for their ivory.
B. It is not illegal to sell ivory
C. There are about 4,000 elephants killed each year.
D. Elephant ivory is used to made jewelry.
3. The word it in line 7 referred to ……………. .
A. an elephant B. a tiger C. tiger pelts D. elephant ivory
4. The Chinese use parts of the tiger as ………….. .
A. carving B. jewelry C. decoration D. medicine
5. According to Professor Dillon, ……………………………. .
A. there is only one strategy to solve the problem
B. it is education that can help to solve the problem
C. we need both education and law enforcement to solve the problem
D. only law enforcement can help to solve the problem

* Circle the item among A, B, C or D that best answers the question about the passage.
I like to be near water – sea, lake or river. That I probably because I was born in a village by the sea, and
I have lived most of my life close to water. When I am in some place which is far from lake, river and
sea, I am restless and I always feel that there is something missing, even though it is sometimes hard
for me to decide what it is.
Of course, the sports I like are the ones which need water – sailing, rowing and swimming. It is possible
to swim in small swimming pools, but rowing and sailing are impossible without a lot of water.
Rowing is best in a river and sailing on the sea or a big lake, but one can do some sailing on a river
and one can certainly row on a lake or the sea when the weather is good.
Of the three sports – swimming, rowing and sailing – I like rowing best because it is the easiest to
continue during the winter, when the water is too cold for comfortable swimming and the sea is often
too rough for sailing. Even on the coldest day one row, only ice on the water or thick fog can stop
one. Sometimes it is so cold when I go out rowing that drop of water freeze wherever they fall. In

read to me continually. So as soon as I could, I learned to read. I started with simple ABC books. Soon I

Reading _______________ me to learn about so many things. I learned about how people lived in by
gone days. I learned about the wonders of the world, space travel, human achievements, gigantic whales,
tiny viruses and other ____________________things.
The ______________ thing about reading is that I do not have to learn things very hard way. For

can avoid it. Also I do not have to deep _____________ the jungle to find out about tigers. I can read all
aboul it in a book.

helped me in my daily life. I am better________________ to cope with living. Otherwise I would go
