Module 6 Films and TV Programmes Ⅰ.阅读理解(建议用时16′) A [2016·昆明调研]Mei Xiang, a female panda of 17 years old, gave birth to twins on August 22, 2015, bringing a happy end to an anxious wait that had begun in April. The birth of two pandas has increased the excitement at Washingtons National Zoo, but keeping them both alive will be tricky. Now that Mei Xiang has surprised the world with twin babies, zoo staff are working round the clock to help them through the first fragile weeks of life. Unable to crawl (爬) or see for about two months, the baby depends on the mothers warmth, milk and protection. Even so, misfortunes can happen. Meis second baby, a female, was born in September 2012, but died a week later due to lung damage. Poorly developed lungs likely prevented it from getting enough oxygen. In the wild, if a panda has twins, the nature of the mother is to choose the stronger of the two pandas and abandon one. But zoos have developed a way to get around that: They will take turns to put the twins between mom and the incubator (恒温箱) every few hours, which means that each baby will get enough time with its mother to be fed by her. If necessary, her milk will be supplemented (补充) with a mixture of infant formula (婴儿配方), dog food and water. The tiny pandas are especially fragile in the face of the mothers 200－pound weight. In July 2006, a panda in China accidentally killed her newborn as it nursed. By watching the zoos panda nests, zoo staff will keep a careful eye on the twins to make sure mom doesnt accidentally harm them. 本文讲述的是在美国华盛顿动物园出生了一对双胞胎熊猫，以及人们是如何照顾他们的。 1．How do the public feel about the birth of the pandas?
