Question

The giant panda is one of the most popular animals in the world. A giant panda can grow up to 1.5 meters long and weigh up to 160kg. People think the giant panda is very lovely. ①So it is not surprising that the World Wide Fund for Nature chose the giant panda as its symbol.The WWF tells people about animals that they are in danger and raises money to save them.
The giant panda only lives in the wild in China. In the early 1980s, were only 1,000 left in the wild. The main reason why pandas are endangered is that the area where pandas can live has become smaller.
The WWF works to help giant pandas in the wild in many ways. One of the ways that helps them is to increase the size of panda reserves(自然保護區(qū)). Some reserves need to be joined together by planting bamboo between them to make “corridors”. These are paths that lead from one reserve to another. No one may harm the pandas in these areas. The corridors let pandas move from one habitat (棲息地) to another to look for food. ②People are working very hard to make sure the giant panda does not die out.

1.根據(jù)文章第二句“A giant panda can grow up to 1.5 meters long and weigh up to 160kg.”可知，一只大熊貓能長到1.5米高、160公斤重。故填1.5 meters long and weigh up to 160kg。
2.劃線句的謂語和賓語是chose和the giant panda，變?yōu)楸粍邮前奄e語變?yōu)橹髡Z，謂語動詞變?yōu)椤癰e+ 過去分詞”的形式。故改寫為the giant panda was chosen as its symbol。
3.根據(jù)第二段的最后一句話“The main reason why pandas are endangered is that...”可知，大熊貓面臨危險的原因是適合大熊貓生存的環(huán)境變小了。故填the area where pandas can live has become smaller。
4.根據(jù)最后一段的第二句話可知，幫助大熊貓的方法之一是建立自然保護區(qū)。故填To increase the size of panda reserves。
5.劃線句是現(xiàn)在進行時，不定式表示的是目的。故翻譯為“為了（保證）不讓大熊貓滅絕，人們正在努力工作著”。
