Ⅰ. 阅读理解
With nly abut 1, 000 pandas left in the wrld, China is desperately trying t clne (克隆) the animal and save the endangered species (物种). That’s a mve similar t what a Texas A & M University researchers have been undertaking fr the past five years in a prject called “Nah’s Ark”.
Nah’s Ark is aimed at cllecting eggs, embrys (胚胎), semen and DNA f endangered animals and string them in liquid nitrgen. If certain species shuld becme extinct, Dr. Duane Kraemer, a prfessr in Texas A& M’s Cllege f Veterinary Medicine, says there wuld be enugh f the basic building blcks t reintrduce the species in the future.
It is estimated that as many as 2, 000 species f mammals, birds reptiles will becme extinct in ver 100 years. The panda, native nly t China, is in danger f becming extinct in the next 25 years.
This week, Chinese scientists said they grew an embry by intrducing cells frm a dead female panda int the egg cells f a Japanese white rabbit. They are nw trying t implant the embry int a hst animal.
The entire prcedure culd take frm three t five years t cmplete.
“The nuclear transfer (核子移植) f ne species t anther is nt easy, and the lack f available (capable f being used) panda eggs culd be a majr prblem, ” Kraemer believes. “They will prbably have t d several hundred transfers t result in ne pregnancy (having a baby). It takes a lng time and it’s difficult, but this culd be grundbreaking science if it wrks. They are certainly nt putting any live pandas at risk, s it is wrth the effrt, adds Kraemer, wh is ne f the leaders f the Prject at Texas A&M, the first-ever attempt at clning a dg.
“They are trying t d smething that’s never been dne, and this is very similar t ur wrk in Nah’s Ark. We’re bth trying t save animals that face extinctin. I certainly appreciate their effrt and there’s a lt we can learn frm what they are attempting t d. It’s a research that is very much needed. ”
本文是一篇科普说明文。中国科学家一直在研究如何提高克隆技术来保护大熊猫, 以及这种技术运用的可能性。文章还介绍了保护物种的“Nah’s Ark”的相关信息。

A. make effrts t clne the endangered pandas
B. save endangered animals frm dying ut
C. cllect DNA f endangered animals t study

2. Accrding t Prfessr Kraemer, the majr prblem in clning pandas wuld be the lack f ________.

Can we give a hand t thse endangered animals?Yes, we may nly d a little bit, but tgether ur small actins add up t a lt.
1. Prtect wildlife habitat

In areas where rare species live, habitat destructin can quickly frce a species t extinctin. By prtecting habitat, entire cmmunities f animals can be prtected tgether naturally. Parks and reserves are nw all t ften the nly habitats that are left untuched by habitat destructin.
2. Reduce the threat f invasive (入侵的)species
The spread f nn-native species has greatly reduced native ppulatins arund the wrld. Invasive species cmpete with native species fr resurces (资源)and habitat. They can even prey n native species directly, frcing native species twards extinctin.
