Welcome to Burton Safari Park. Burton is one of Europe's oldest wildlife parks. Here you can see wild animals from all over the world - and they're not in cages. Before we start, we have some information for the animal's safety and for your own. First, please stay in your car at all times. If there is an emergency (紧急情况)or your car breaks down, please use your horn (喇叭) and lights and a person will come and help you. If you would like to stop, please do so on the left side of the road, so the traffic will pass on the right. Please don't feed the animals. Our animals are fed on special diets and your food could make them ill or even kill them.

We're starting our tour with some of Burton's most interesting animals, our four white rhinos (犀牛)from South Africa. The white rhino doesn't get its name from its colour; the African word white means wild. The white rhino has a wide mouth and it helps the animal to eat grass. Sadly, there are very few white rhinos left because humans hunt them for their valuable horns (角). They can be made into things like handles(柄,把手)for knives.

A young man was getting ready to graduate from college. For many months he had admired a beautiful sports car in a dealer’s showroom, and knowing his father could well afford it, he told him that was all he wanted. As Graduation Day approached the young man awaited signs that his father had purchased the car. Finally, on the morning of his graduation, his father called him into his private study. His father told him how proud he was to have such a fine son and told him how much he loved him. He handed his son a beautifully wrapped gift box. Curious, but somewhat disappointed, the young man opened the box and found a lovely, leather-bound Bible, with the young man’s name embossed in gold. Angry, he raised his voice to his father and said "With all your money, you give me a Bible? " and stormed out of the the house. Leaving the Bible.

Many years passed and the young man was very successful in business. He had a beautiful home and wonderful family, but realized his father was very old, and thought perhaps he should go to him. He had not seen him since that graduation day. Before he could make arrangements, he received a telegram telling him his father had passed away and willed all of his possessions to his son. He needed to come home immediately and take care of things. When he arrived at his father’s house, sudden sadness and regret filled his heart. He began to search through his father’s important papers and saw the still new Bible, just as he had left it years ago. With tears, he opened the Bible and began to turn the pages. And as he did, a car key dropped from the back of the Bible. It had a tag with the dealer’s name, the same dealer who had the sports car he had desired. On the tag was the date of his graduation and the words PAID IN FULL. How many times do we miss Spirit's blessings and answers to our prayers because they do not arrive exact as we have expected?

We all know that we need water to live. Up to 75% of our bodies is water and we need to drink water every day to be healthy! So what will happen to the Earth’s water if global warming (全球变暖)gets worse?

About 71% of the Earth’s surface is covered with water. When the temperature of the Earth rises, the temperature of the water rises, too. Higher water temperatures will kill the underwater plants and tiny fish. But it’s not just the fish! Higher temperatures also have an influence on animals on land. Some scientists think that because of global warming, two thirds of the world’s polar bears will never be seen on our planet by 2050.

Global warming makes the weather change, too. In some places, there will be less rain. This will cause deserts to be larger. In other places, the rain will become very strong and heavy, so we will have less farmland and not enough food for humans.

Global warming is a big problem. But we can help by making small changes like turning off the water, lights, and TV when we aren’t using them!
