Across the world they have brought together and displayed live wild animals for people t
31、o look at and over the years BUhundreds of millions/B/U have. Any institution with so long a history and so universally attended must reach something in people deeper than idle curiosity. Since it is fashionable to speak of roots today, it might be suggested that zoos allow us to stay in touch with
32、our most primitive roots in a primeval world where human survival depended on knowing the shapes and habits of wild animals. So important were wild creatures to our distant ancestors that they were the most frequent subjects of paintings on cave walls, formed the basis for virtually all early religi
33、ons, and were in numerous instances worshipped as gods.Now our survival is threatened more by what we ourselves have worked, and by the stresses of living among these creations, than it is by wild animals to whom we relegate less and less living space with each passing year. In this world the need f
34、or good zoological gardens is urgent. The exponential growth of human population and the ever-increasing sprawl of cities does more than rob land from wildlife: it pushes the animals farther away from city dwellers. People live in brick, concrete, and glass environments where they lose all touch wit
35、h wilderness; children grow up who have never tried to catch a frog, never seen a hawk soar or a deer step daintily into a forest clearing-let alone watched a herd of elephants ambles across the river or a pride of lions stalk prey.People who have the time and money can take an occasional trip to th
36、e remaining wilderness and find, in places where wild animals still live, the renewal of spirit that comes from prolonged visits to wild country. For millions of others who are unable to leave the cities or cant afford to, good zoos laid out among plants and trees can bring what conservationist Lan
37、Player calls “a taste of wilderness“. Perhaps more important in the long run, zoos can help give deprived people an awareness that we share the world with many other animals and should have a decent regard for their worth and right to live. If zoos did no more than accomplish these two ends, they wo
38、uld serve a noble purpose.As it happens, however, todays zoos can do far more. They can become breeding centers for those wild species whose continued existence has become precarious. The term “captive breeding“ has been used to describe this new role of zoos, and this book describes the effort-the
39、most important task that zoos have yet undertaken.(分数:10.00)(1).In the second sentence of the first paragraph, “hundreds of millions“ refers to the great number of _ .

Our main objectives (目标) were the little-known Maldive Is
44、lands. The Maldives consist of several thousand little islands, some so small that they are hardly a mile in diameter, some as large as twenty or thirty miles across. All the islands in the Maldives have developed on coral reefs (珊瑚礁).A coral reef is a flower garden of stone, growing like a wall or
45、like a tower from the depths, and filled with the most confusing and most colourful varieties of life. The colours are very beautiful, especially in the shallow region down to sixty feet, where some of the red and yellow light of the suns rays still penetrates. But most corals are greenish, brown, b
46、luish or yellow. Coral reefs offer shelter and food to thousands of creatures. The warmer the climate, the greater the variety of species there is. In the tropics, it is easier to find, in one place, ten different species than ten specimens of the same species, and a coral reef provides ample proof
47、of that rule. Living conditions are most favourable so that many forms are able to develop and survive in their struggle for existence. Here is wide field for the diving biologist.The value of aqualung (水中呼吸器) diving for the biologist is that he can watch and collect on the spot. If men have not until
