21、   There are many words to describe the red panda. This animal is cute, fuzzy, reddish, and small. Sadly, the word endangered also describes the red panda. That’s because people are destroying its habitat. If people continue to do this, there will be no more red pandas left in the world.

People cut down the trees that red pandas live in. Red pandas live in the forests of the Himalayas, a mountain range that goes through Nepal, China, and India. About half of the red pandas in the world live there. When people cut down the trees, they destroy the red panda’s habitat. Red pandas spend most of their lives in trees, so they are basically homeless when their forests get cut down. Without their homes, the pandas are not safe from animals that can hurt them.

There is another reason that deforestation, or cutting down trees hurts red pandas. It takes away the animals’ food sources. Red pandas eat bamboo, a grass that grows in their habitat. They also eat fruit, roots, acorns, and eggs. When deforestation happens, the entire habitat is ruined and the red pandas don’t know where to find food. People have also endangered red pandas by taking them out of their habitat to use their fur for clothing and to sell them as pets.

With all of these problems, it’s no wonder that there are fewer red pandas in the world. So how can people help them? Some zoo keepers are helping to solve this problem by bringing red pandas to zoos and clinics. The zookeepers take care of the red pandas and hope that baby red pandas will be born. Then the zookeepers send the babies back into the wild.

There is also a group called the Red Panda Network. It is a group of people who guard the forests in Nepal and the red pandas that live in them. They watch the forests every day. They hope that in the future, people will stop destroying the red panda’s habitat and that the animal will no longer be endangered.

A.the fact of losing food sources B.the act of cutting down trees

【3】What is the writer’s main purpose in writing this passage?

A.To introduce what the red pandas are like and where they live.

B.To tell why the red pandas are endangered and how people help them.

C.To introduce what the red pandas like to eat and how they get food.

I believe I can make a difference to this world," she often says.

Now she is carrying out a new plan to r【7】 (募集) money to train animals. After training, she wants to give away the animals to the disabled people. "I【8】 (想象) you can't see or walk. What's your feeling? We should open another d【9】 (门) for the disabled," she once said to us.

Does she interest you? I hope many people can change their life because of her k【10】 (善良).
