Hỏi đáp Unit 5 Tiếng Anh lớp 9 phần Language Focus

Read the following passage and then choose the correct answer A, B, C or D. 

High up on the Qionglai in China lives a black and white, barrel-shaped furry animal. This animal feeds on bamboo shoots. Have you heard or read about this animal? The Giant Panda is one of the most famous animals in China. It is not only very rare animal but an endangered species too, with only 1,000 of them existing in the wild.

Many people fear the panda may disappear soon because it cannot find the food it needs. As it is slow and clumsy, the panda find it difficult to catch animals for food. Hence, it has adapted itself to feed on the fresh bamboo leaves and stems that the bamboo forest provided. However, modern development has destroyed a lot of diseases. In the 1970’s, most of the bamboo forests died and more than one hundred pandas starved to death.

Since then steps have been taken to the hospital the pandas from becoming extinct. Panda reserves were set up and now, many zoos all over the world are doing their part to encourage the reproduction of pandas through artificial ways.

This is not easy for two reasons. Firstly, pandas reproduce poorly in captivity. Secondly, the female panda give birth to only two cubs at a time. The mother can look after one cub so the other is often left to die. Pandas also do not move in herds. They live on their own except when mating. How then do pandas protect themselves in the wild? Visibility in the bamboo thickets is poor. The pandas’ barrel-shaped bodies and padded paws enable them to move through bamboo thickets without being seen or heard. However, hunting and destruction of bamboo forests gave caused the population of pandas to dwindle.

No one knows how long pandas can live in the wild. In captivity, pandas have lived as long as 30 years.

The panda is China’s national treasure. People who are caught harming pandas are sentenced to jail.

Most people in my country have only lived in cities for the past thirty years. Before that they have lived in villages or small towns by the sea or in the mountains. This is why it is not unusual to hear even young children who they have lived in cities all their lives are talking about 'their village'. What they mean is the place where their parents were grew up or previous generations of their family lived. Even today although 'the village' is an important part of the lives of the majority of people who now make their living in cities. Most families still have yet a house in a village somewhere around the country and they return at there in the summer or during other holidays to help with the family land or just to spend time with friends and relatives. There is a wonderful sense of community and a shared past in each these villages which is so different from the cities in where most of us live. If these villages can survive, I am sure people will find it more easier to spend time in them in the future. People who have made many money in the cities will start to can invest in their old family homes and help to maintain this lovely aspect of family life in my country.
