10. D。根据never come back可知仙女消失了
A thousand years ago, Hong Kong was covered by a thick forest. As more and more
people came to 1 in Hong Kong,
these trees were cut down and burnt. Now there is 2
forest left, though there are still some small areas(地方) covered with trees. We call
these woods.
Elephants, tigers and
many 3 animals were living in the thick forest. When
people came to live in Hong Kong,
the 4 began to die out. Early farmers grew rice
and 5 pigs and chickens in the valleys. They cut down
the trees and burnt them. They needed 6 to keep
themselves warm in winter, to cook their food and to keep away the dangerous
animals. Elephants quickly disappeared(消失) because there was not enough food for them.
7 did most of the wolves and tigers. Monkeys and many other animals
soon 8 in the same way.
You might think that there are no
longer any animals in Hong Kong
9 in the zoos. There are still about 36 different
animals 10 there. One of the most interesting of Hong Kong’s animals is the barking deer. These are
beautiful little animals 11 a rich brown coat and a
white patch(补丁) under the tail. They
look like deer 12 but they are much like a
dog 13 . In Hong Kong the barking deer has only a real enemy(敌人)- 14 . People
hunt these little animals though it is illegal(违法的). There are now not many barking deer left. So it is
important 15 people to protect (保护) wild animals.
