cages were small and impossible to hide in．Although the zoo keepers took good care of them，many of the animals did not feel comfortable，and they often became ill．  In modern zoos，people can see animals in more natural conditions．  The animals are given more freedom in larger places so that they can live as they could in nature．In an American zoo，visitors can walk through a huge special cage that is filled with trees，some small animals and many birds．Some zoos have special places for visitors to watch animals that live in the desert or under water．Some other zoos have special places for animals that live in cold conditions like the bear from Arctic．  Modern zoos not only show animals，but also keep and save rare animals，for the reason the grandchildren of today’s visitors will still be able to enjoy watching these animals．1．Fifty years ago animals in zoos often became ill because they ____．    A．were from different countries      B．1ived in dirty cages    C．were not taken good
