26、Endangered species
An endangered species is a group of animals or plants that could soon become extinct.【1】Many species are nearly extinct and could disappear off the face of the earth very soon if we don't do anything to save them. There are many reasons why species become endangered.
Habitat loss is the main factor. And this happens in two ways. When humans move into a new area, the animals' habitat is destroyed and there is nowhere for them to live and nothing for them to eat because humans chop down trees and build houses and farms. 【2】Chemicals in rivers and poisons on farms result in the destruction of animals' homes and food supplies.
【3】 Animals have been brought to the edge of extinction because they are killed for their highly valued meat, fur, bones or skin, or just for sport. Overfishing has resulted in many large sea creatures like whales and sharks becoming endangered species.
【4】We should take care not to pollute natural areas, and farmers or companies who destroy animal habitats should face severe financial punishment. The public can help out by refusing to buy any product made from these animals' body parts. Governments can help, too, by making it against the law to hunt,fish or trade in endangered species. They can also provide funding for animal reserves, to protect animals from extinction by breeding more endangered animals, which they later release into the wild. 【5】
A.Our recent measures, however, have helped to improve the situation.
B.Eventually, all the creatures on the earth will enjoy being together.
C.Endangered species are also the result of hunting and fishing.
D.Animals' homes are also destroyed because of pollution.
E.Extinction happens when the last of the species has died out and there will be no more.
F.If we all cooperate and take these steps, we will protect these animals for future generations.
G.So what can individuals and governments do to protect endangered species?

28、 It’s undeniable that spending time outdoors and in nature lifts our spirits and makes us feel more centered and at peace.When we breathe in fresh air,and enjoy the beauty of trees,streams and oceans,we naturally tend to feel more connected to ourselves and others.
Over the past decade,scientists have been exploring why nature-and dirt specifically-is such a powerful tool in improving our mood.According to researchers,the secret may lie in the microbes(微生物)of the soil.One bacterium specifically-Mycobacterium Vaccae (M.Vaccae)-has been identified as having the power to affect our moods and cognitive function as well.
Experiments conducted at Sage Colleges in New York found that contact with M.Vaccae could increase serotonin levels in the brain-a chemical that is associated with higher levels of happiness-increased focus,and reduced anxiety.In order to explore how the bacteria could improve learning,researchers Dory Mathews and Susan Jenks experimented with mice in a maze.Mice that ingested the bacteria navigated the maze twice as fast as the control group and proved less anxious as well.
Humans can absorb M.Vaccae just by playing in the dirt.We take in it when we breathe,we consume it in organic vegetables,and it can also enter our bloodstream through skin contact,especially where we have open cuts.This may explain why children in school perform better after break.
Neuroscientist Christopher Lowry at the University of Bristol in England believes that he has identified why this incredible bacterium works.“What we think happens is that the bacteria activate immune cells,which release chemicals called cytokines that then act on receptors on the sensory nerves to increase their activity.”
Beyond the power of M.Vaccae,scientists have been proving for decades that exposure to dirt,and a huge number of microbes found in dirt,can strengthen our immune system.When our body comes into contact with bacteria,it stores die information in a type of library and can then use that information to fight sickness and infection more effectively.
Happiness,focus,less anxiety...I’ll take a double dose of dirt;please!
【1】What raises people’s spirits while spending time outdoors?
A.Air. B.Trees. C.Water. D.Dirt.
【2】How does M.Vaccae work?
A.By working on sensory nerves.
B.By fighting sickness and infection.
C.By strengthening the immune system.
D.By making immune cells active.
【3】What can be a suitable title for the text?
A.Fight Sickness and Infection More Effectively
B.How Getting Dirty Can Actually Lift Your Mood?
C.Let’s Take a Deep Breath of Fresh Air
D.Enjoy Beauty and Naturally Connect to Others
