第7练 Ⅰ.阅读理解 A 体裁：记叙文　话题：森林警察　词数：338　时间：5′ Prince William kept the best for the last.After two days of his visit，his third and final day of activities in China included delivering a basket of carrots to a 13－year－old Asian elephant.In Yunnan Province，the prince heard about the dangers to Chinas remaining 250 wild elephants.He also heard of the story of Chang Zongbo，a forestry policeman，who has spent his life trying to protect what remains of Yunnan s rainforest and its wildlife including elephants. For 27 years，Chang Zongbo has climbed every one of the mountains，hunting poachers (偷猎者)．“We go for days，following the poachers and then waiting till they re sound asleep late at night.Thats the best time to arrest (逮捕) them，” he says.Killing an elephant carries the death penalty (死刑) in China，a powerful reason for the poacher to resist arrest.And that has worked.The combination of public education and fear of the death penalty means that China is one of the safest places for an elephant these days. The major problem in China is the disappearing forest.Their habitats were surrounded by natural forest.Now the habitats are islands，completely cut off from each other by farms.Farmers build a wall to protect the people from the elephants.The elephants break it and walk into farms and villages.They eat up bananas.Sometimes they kill farmers. Mr.Chang is here to protect the elephants but hes also sympathetic (同情心)to the sufferings of the farmers.He is doing what he can to prevent elephants from damaging crops and lives. Before ending my interview，he tells me，“Every little part of the forest，I work to save it.Every elephant，I work to save it.So when I look my grandchildren in the eye，I can tell them I have done my best.” Its a message Prince William would echo. 【语篇解读】　本文讲述了一位森林警察多年来保护热带雨林和野生大象的故事。 1.Which of the following is NOT TRUE?
