They are all endangered animals, why?

Daisy was amazed. “Flying carpet, please take me home so I can tell WWF and we can begin producing this new drug. Monkey, please come and help.” The monkey agreed. The carpet flew home. As they landed, things began to disappear. Two minutes later everything had gone-the monkey, too. So Daisy was not able to make her new drug. But what an experience! She had learned so much! And there was always WWF…

The flying carpet traveled so fast that next minute they were in Zimbabwe. Daisy turned around and found that she was being watched by an elephant. “Have you come to take my photo?” it asked. In relief Daisy burst into laughter. “Don’t laugh,” said the elephant, “We used to be an endangered species. Farmers hunted us without mercy. They said we destroyed their farms, and money from tourists only went to the large tour companies. So the government decided to help. They allowed tourists to hunt only a certain number of animals if they paid the farmers. Now the farmers are happy and our numbers are increasing. So good things are being done here to save local wildlife.”
飞毯飞行得如此之快,以至于一转眼他们就来到 了津巴布韦。戴茜转过身去,看到一头大象正望着她。 大象问道:“你是来给我拍照的吗?”戴茜如释重负, 突然笑了起来。大象说道,“我们过去是濒危动物, 农民们总是惨无人道地捕杀我们。他们说,我们破坏 了他们的农田,而旅游者的钱过去都流进了大型旅游 公司。于是政府决定出面提供帮助。如果游客付给农 民钱的话,他们允许游客来猎取一定数量的动物。如 今农民高兴了,我们的数量也在增加。因此,为了拯 救当地的野生动植物,他们也在做一些好事。”

Daisy had always longed to help endangered species of wildlife. One day she woke up and found a flying carpet by her bed. “Where do you want to go?” it asked. Daisy responded immediately. “I’d like to see some endangered wildlife,” she said. “Please take me to a distant land where I can find the animal that gave fur to make this sweater.” At once the carpet flew away and took her to Tibet. There daisy saw an antelope looking sad. It said, “We’re being killed for the wool beneath our stomachs. Our fur is being used to make sweaters for people like you. As a result, we are now an endangered species.” At that Daisy cried, “I’m sorry I didn’t know that. I wonder what is being done to help you. Flying carpet, please show me a place where there’s some wildlife protection.”
戴茜很惊讶。“飞毯,请带我回家去,我 可以告诉世界自然基金会,我们可以开始生产 这种新药。猴子,请跟我回去帮忙吧。”猴子 同意了,毯子飞回了家。当他们着地时,一切 就开始消失了。两分钟后,什么都没了──猴 子也没了。这样,戴茜就不能制造新药了。但 是,这是一次多么奇妙的经历呀!她学了那么 多东西!而且,还有世界自然基金会呢……
戴茜笑道:“这可是个好消息。这体现了野生动 植物保护的重要性,不过,我还是想按照世界自然基 金会(WWF)的建议来帮助你们。”飞毯再次升起, 几乎一转眼他们就到了茂密的热带雨林。一只猴子一 边擦着身体,一边望着他们。戴茜问它:“你在干什 么呢?”它回答说:“我这样做可以防止蚊虫叮咬。 当我发现一种千足虫,便把它擦在身上,它含有一种 强效的药物可以防止蚊虫叮咬。你们应该多加关注我 生活的热带雨林,并且懂得热带雨林的动物是如何在 一起生活的。没有雨林,就没有动物,也就没有药物 了。”

戴茜一直以来都渴望帮助那些濒临灭绝的野生动 植物。一天她醒来,发现床边有一块飞毯。飞毯问: “你想去哪儿?”戴茜立刻回答道:“我想去看看濒 临灭绝的野生动物。请带我到遥远的地方,在那里我 可以发现为制作这件毛衣而提供毛绒的那种动物。” 飞毯立刻开始起飞了,带她到了中国的西藏。在那里, 戴茜看到一只藏羚羊面带忧郁的神色。它说:“为了 取得我们肚皮底下的羊毛,我们正在被屠杀。我们的 毛被用来为像你一样的人们制作毛衣。因此,我们现 在濒临灭绝了。”听了这话,戴茜哭了:“我很抱歉, 我过去不知道还有这回事儿。我不知道为了帮助你们 正在采取什么措施。飞毯啊,请把我带到一个有野生 动植物保护的地方去,好吗?”
Daisy smiled, “That’s good news. It shows the importance of wildlife protection, but I’d like to help as the WWF suggests.” The carpet rose again and almost at once they were in a thick rainforest. A monkey watched them as it rubbed itself. “What are you doing?” asked Daisy. “I’m protecting myself from mosquitoes,” it replied. When I find a millipede insect, I rub it over my body. It contains a powerful drug which affects mosquitoes. You should pay more attention to the rainforest where I live and appreciate how the animals live together. No rainforest, no animals, no drugs.”

Unit 4 Wildlife protection Reading
Wild plants and animals have to look after themselves. They need food, a good environment and safety. If their habitat is threatened or they cannot enough food, their numbers may decrease. As a result, these endangered animals may even die out. They need help. This is what wildlife protection all about.
