Directions: Complete the following passage by filling in each blank
with one word that best fits the context.
Humans are responsible for causing changes in the
environment that hurt animals and species(物种). We take up more space on Earth for our
homes and cities. We pollute habitats(栖息地). 48
illegally hunt and kill
animals. All of these activities take resources and habitats away 49
plants and animals.
Human activity often changes or destroys the habitats
that plants and animals need to survive.
50 human populations are growing so fast,
animals and plants are disappearing many times faster 51
they have in the past 65
million years.
Animals and plants have always had a 52
time surviving. Animals
became extinct (灭绝的) in the past for a wide variety of reasons. In some
cases, competition for resources among animals led to extinction and in 53
cases, environmental
changes caused extinction.
Fortunately, we humans are beginning to realize our
mistakes, 54 we could destroy everything on Earth. We
must not only use our knowledge and abilities to manage the Earth, but to make
the Earth 55 safe and healthy place where all animals
and plants--including humans ourselves--can live.
