Animals are natural resources that people have wasted all through our history.
Animals have been killed for their fur and feathers, 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 of nature. Destroying one kind of animals can create many problems.
For example, when farmers killed large number of hawks, the farmers’ stores of corn and grain were destroyed by rats and mice. Why ? Because hawks eat rats and mice. With no hawks to keep down their numbers, the rats and mice multiplied 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 the killing of any animals or o plants on the danger list. Slowly, the number of some animals in danger is growing.

A.Thousands of kinds of animals are gone forever.
B.Many kinds of animals have died out.
C.About 170 kinds of animals have disappeared forever.
D.All kinds of animals are in danger.
2.What can we conclude from the fact that quite a few countries have passed laws protecting animals in danger?
A. Every person will know the importance of protecting wild animals.
B. Animals in danger will not be killed any more.
C. The number of some animals in danger will increase.
D. Animals in danger will be kept away from people.
第一题怎么能选A呢?可是文章第2段是Thousands of kinds of animals have disappeared from the earth forever
第2题既然通过法案保护动物了,怎么还能选C,处于危险中的动物的数量还在上升?
英语与汉语的最大不同是因为欧美思维与东方思维的不同,西方思维是直线型
第一题,LZ可以在文中看到Thousands of kinds of animals have disappeared from the earth forever.意为上千种动物从地球上永远的消失了.
在阅读理解题目中,题目的选项往往有干扰项,同时,为了隐藏答案,正确选项往往使用同意词替换.
在B选项中意为死亡,过于片面.C曲解意思,原文指170种美洲生物in danger（濒临灭绝）D选项很明显过于武断,很容易就排除.而A中的gone意为消失.与原文较符.
第二题,在阅读理解中,命题人不但考察学生快速阅读的能力,更考察对全文的把握.我们通读全文不难发现作者的态度比较乐观,而且同学们一定要注意文中很多表示转折,递进,否定等意思的副词.在文中最后一段我们看到Slowly,the number of some animals in danger is growing.有两个方面,一方面,既然是少部分人了解到并开始做出反应,那么这个趋势是积极的,另一方面,作者对于如此少量的国家的作为表示担心,濒临灭绝的动物依然越来越多.那么,提干中的conclude只可能是这两个方面.但选项中AB过于武断,全部肯定了人们的看法.
补充说明：
把题看的客观点,简单点,也是作阅读题的一种心态：就是说文中说明不是的就“不是”,没说明的就“不知道”,文中说明了的就“是”,不要根据自己的判断来选择“似乎合理”的答案.那么在第2题中,既然是从quite a few countries have passed laws protecting animals in danger这个事实来conclude,我们就从文中找出推测的理由,即Slowly,the number of some animals in danger is growing.
那么,由于保护措施相比物种消失的速度过于微小,很客观的判断便是C
