VI Read the passage and answer the questions
Asian Elephants mostly populate the rainforests of Southeast Asia , India, Sri Lanka , and Indonesia
From the ground to the shoulder, Asian Elephants measure about 10 feet (2.9m) high They can weigh as much as 11,000 pounds (4989.5kg) Comparatively speaking, they are smaller and have smaller ears than African Elephants Their trunk has only one "lip" or "finger." The tusks are about 4 - 5 feet (1.2 - 1.5m) for males, and females have really small ones that they are not noticeable
The elephants eat about 310 pounds (140kg) of food each day Their favorites include grass, bamboo, bark, roots, and foliage They also like bananas, rice, and sugar cane
Asian Elephants care for each other When one of them is sick or dying , the whole herd stands around that one to comfort it They would stroke their trunks on it and refuse to leave it alone
The Asian Elephants now are endangered because of habitat loss People are cutting down forests quickly in Asia They either cut down trees to sell, or clear the land for farming , There may be less than 35,000 elephants left in the wild To preserve these elephants, conservationists dig waterholes and replant more trees so that they can have food and water In Malaysia, people are relocating the elephants to better and safer environment

Tapescript
A new report says the illegal killing of rhinos for their horns is increasing in Africa and Asia Rhinoceros poachers are killing an estimated two to three of the rare animals each week
Experts say demand in Asia, especially Vietnam and China, currently drives most trade in rhino horns from southern Africa The horns are often used to make traditional medicines, or handles for dagger knives
The report is from the International Union for the Conservation of Nature and an organization known as Traffic
Most African rhino poaching is in Zimbabwe and South Africa Experts found that two hundred ten rhinos were illegally killed in South Africa in the last three years
The estimate for Zimbabwe is two hundred thirty-five The situation threatens gains made in its rhino populations in the nineteen nineties In the last two years, only six people were found guilty of poaching charges out of forty-one arrested
In two thousand one, sixty-eight percent of African rhino horns entering illegal trade were recovered By this year, nine out of ten were heading to Asian markets without interference The report says poaching and illegal horn trade has increased in South Africa even with new measures against it
