Africa's wild giraffe population has plunged dramatically and the world's tallest animals are in the process of a "silent extinction", a conservation group has reported

Giraffe populations have fallen by up to 40% over the last 30 years, the International Union for Conservation of Nature says in the latest edition of its "Red List" of endangered species The gentle giants' numbers have dipped from as many as 163,000 in 1985 to just over 97,000 last year, according to the report

The steep decline was one of the headline statistics from the report, and is driven by some familiar factors including habitat loss, civil unrest and unforgettably, illegal hunting Elsewhere, of the 742 newly recognized bird species in the list, 11% are considered threatened ‒ and 13 already listed as "extinct"

"Many species are slipping away before we can even describe them," IUCN Director General Inger Andersen said in response to the report's publication "This IUCN Red List update shows that the scale of the global extinction crisis may be even greater than we thought."

Among bird species under threat is the African grey parrot, a popular pet, which is now classed as "Endangered" on the list because of "unsustainable trapping and habitat loss."

Across animals, birds, insects, aquatic life and plants, the list now includes 85,604 species, of which 24,307 are threatened with extinction

The plunge in the number of wild giraffe prompted the group to move the animals from the "least concern" rating to "vulnerable", in the report

"Whilst giraffes are commonly seen on safari, in the media and in zoos, people ‒ including conservationists ‒ are unaware that these majestic animals are undergoing a silent extinction," IUCN co-Chairman Julian Fennessy, was quoted as saying

"With a decline of almost 40% in the last three decades alone, the world's tallest animal is under severe pressure in some of its core ranges across East, Central and West Africa As one of the world's most iconic animals, it is timely that we take risks for the giraffe before it is too late."

Of nine subspecies of giraffe, five are declining in numbers, while three have increasing populations and one is stable

Question 33: We can forget about the threat of poaching to giraffes because it no longer exists Question 34: The causes leading to the significant decline of giraffes are different from those happening to other species

Question 37: The species usually disappear too fast for scientists to describe Question 38: Giraffes used to be a safe species

Let children learn to judge their own work A child learning to talk does not learn by being corrected all the time If corrected too much, he will stop talking He notices a thousand times a day the difference between the language he uses and the language those around him use Bit by bit, he makes the necessary changes to make his language like other people's In the same way, children learn all the other things they learn to without being taught - to talk, run, climb, whistle, ride a bicycle - compare their own performances with those of more skilled people, and slowly make the needed changes But in school we never give a child a chance to find out his mistakes for himself, let alone correct them We it all for him We act as if we thought that he would never notice a mistake unless it was pointed out to him, or correct it unless he was made to Soon he becomes dependent on the teacher Let him it himself Let him work out, with the help of other children if he wants it, what this word says, what the answer is to that problem, whether this is a good way of saying or doing this or not

Let them get on with this job in the way that seems most sensible to them, with our help as school teachers if they ask for it The idea that there is a body of knowledge to be learnt at school and used for the rest of one's life is nonsense in a world as complicated and rapidly changing as ours Anxious parents and teachers say, “But suppose they fail to learn something essential, something they will need to get on in the world?"

The peregrine falcon, a predatory bird indigenous to North America, was once in danger of extinction In the 1960s, scientists discovered byproducts of the pesticide DDT in the birds' eggs, which caused them to be too soft to survive The use of the pesticide had been banned in the United States, but the falcons were eating migratory birds from other places where DDT was still used In order to increase the survival rate, scientists were raising the birds in laboratories and then releasing them into mountainous areas This practice achieved only moderate success, however, because many of the birds raised in captivity could not survive in the wild

There is now, however, a new alternative to releases in the wild A falcon that has been given the name Scarlett chose to make her home on a ledge of the 33rd floor of a Baltimore,

Maryland, office building rather than in the wild, and, to the surprise of the scientists, she has managed to live quite well in the city Following this example, programs have been initiated that release birds like Scarlett into cities rather than into their natural wild habitat These urban releases are becoming a common way to strengthen the species Urban homes have several benefits for the birds that wild spots not First, there is an abundance of pigeons and small birds as food sources The peregrine in the city is also protected from its main predator, the great horned owl Urban release programs have been very successful in reestablishing the peregrine falcons along the East Coast Though they are still an endangered species, their numbers increased from about 60 nesting pairs in 1975 to about 700 pairs in 1992 In another decade the species may flourish again, this time without human help

In the exploration of the linguistic life cycle, it is apparent that it is much more difficult to learn a second language in adulthood than a first language in childhood Most adults never completely master a foreign language, especially in phonology – hence the ubiquitous foreign accent Their development often “fossilizes” into permanent error patterns that no teaching or correction can undo Of course, there are great individual differences, which depend on effort, attitudes, amount of exposure, quality of teaching, and plain talent, but there seems to be a cap for the best adults in the best circumstances

Systematic evidence comes from the psychologist Elissa Newport and her colleagues They tested Korean and Chinese-born students at the University of Illinois who had spent at least ten years in the United States The immigrants were given a list of 276 simple English sentences, half of them containing some grammatical errors The immigrants who came to the United States between the ages of and performed identically to American-born students Those who arrived between the ages of and 15 did worse the later they arrived, and those who arrived between 17 and 39 did the worst of all, and showed huge variability unrelated to the age of arrival

A adults differences in learning a foreign language B children’s ability to learn a language

C the age factor in learning language fast D research into language acquisition

37 From the passage, it can be inferred that “phonology” is the study of _ A the grammar of a language B the rules of a language

C the vocabulary of a language D the sound system of a language

38 The word “cap” in the first paragraph is closest in meaning to _

A prize B limit C covering D level

39 According to the passage, young children learn language quickly for all of the following reasons EXCEPT _

A they make many mistakes B they want to talk

C their approach is flexible D they frequently repeat words 40 In the experiment in the passage, the psychologists discovered that _

A most students had lived in the U.S for more than 10 years B older students were unable to learn English
