I’m standing in South Africa, just 15 metres from a rhino and her baby. “There’s nothing to fear,” I tried to tell myself. To be honest, I would be pretty fearful, but I’m accompanied by two rhino experts, Divan Grobler and Hunter Mitchell.
We’re at Aquila Private Game Reserve, a couple of hours from Cape Town, to learn from Divan and 12-year-old wildlife activist, Hunter, about the Saving Private Rhino program and the fight to protect the endangered species(物种), whose numbers have decreased from more than a million to less than 30,000 because of coaching(偷猎)and habitat loss. I’ve been dreaming of visiting South Africa forever. And right now, in this moment, I think I’m going mad. Luckily, we have people like Divan and Hunter to fight to save these creatures from poachers killing them to make medicines from their horns.
While the wellbeing of the planet is important, so is the livelihood of the people that live in it. Sadly, almost half of South Africa’s population lives below the global poverty(贫穷) line. But there are some kind people trying to change that. The team at Uthando South Africa are among those. The team raise funds for community development and they take us to visit some art and music projects in Khayelitsha. I am so excited by the singing and dancing at Isibane se Afrika that I have to join in. And the kids at the KASI RC-Shack Art School & Theatre blow my mind. Not only are they the best actors I’ve be ever seen, they also let us join their drama lesson.
South Africa has stolen my heart, and this journey has made me believe that the time for talk has passed. It is time for action. And I am ready to fight for our future.
21. How did the author feel when he saw the rhino at first? A. Sad.

The silver-backed chevrotain(鼷鹿) is a small animal. It is also called the Vietnamese mouse-deer. Experts feared the silver-backed chevrotain had died out. Then they saw one in a forest in Vietnam.
The last time experts saw a silver-backed chevrotain was almost 30 years ago. In 1990, a hunter killed one. Now there is hope for the tiny mammals(哺乳动物). Global Wildlife Conservation is a group based in Texas. It keeps a list of the 25 most-wanted lost species. The chevrotain was the first mammal on the list to be found. Silver-backed chevrotains live in the tropical forests of Vietnam. Four of them were collected in 1910, leading to the first description of the animals. There are 10 known kinds of chevrotains. Most of them live in Asia. They weigh less than 10 pounds each. They are the world’s smallest hoofed(有蹄的) mammals. Chevrotains live alone. They eat fruit, grass, and leaves. Chevrotains have been targeted by poachers.
Experts set up three cameras to take pictures of the forest. In five months, they got 275 photos of the silver-backed chevrotain. Another 29 cameras were set up for five more months. They took 1,881 more pictures. Learning that the chevrotain is still out there “is the first step in ensuring we don’t lose it again,” said expert An. Nguyen.
Experts still have a lot to learn about chevrotains. The new find will push them to learn more. They will also try to protect the animals. Experts plan to put cameras in two more places. They want to learn how many chevrotains are living in the area. High levels of hunting have led to an “empty forest syndrome” in Vietnam. That is when healthy forests have few animals because of humans. A few species are close to dying out because of it.
24. Why did experts worry about silver-backed chevrotains? A. They had disappeared for many years. C. They would be endangered soon.
B. They failed to get used to the forest. D. They did harm to local people.
25. What do we know about silver-backed chevrotains? A. They like to live in groups.

I think a lot of fans believe that parks’ strong love to intellectual property (IP) (知识产权) is something new. But parks have relied on outside media for inspiration ever since Disneyland opened in 1955. Remember, “Disneyland” was a TV show before it was a theme park. Walt himself used his show to introduce fans across the country to many of the original IP that he would feature in the park. And the park's Fantasy land always has provided a collection of Disney Animation IP.
When movies, TV shows, and theme parks all share the same franchise (特许权), they help create and strengthen a popular need that allows the studios that produce the franchise to spend many millions of dollars on it than the studio could afford if that work existed in a single medium. Basing a franchise on outside IP gives designers a “head start,” allowing them to tap into relationships and emotional(情感的) states that fans bring to an IP ride or show, and to build on those from there, deepening the experience for visitors.
Of course, this only works for people who know a franchise. That’s not much of an obstacle for Harry Potter, Star Wars, or Marvel.But it can be for less popular franchises. I saw a lot of people last month walk out of Motion gate Dubai’s Hotel Transylvania ride with blank looks. If you didn’t know the movie, you had no idea what was happening on that ride.
Still, popular IP comes with risk to theme parks. A great IP raise the expectation for a theme park attraction, putting the pressure on designers. Millions of fans would have booked trips to see The Wizarding World of Harry Potter, no matter what Universal did with that franchise. But if
