In America, when people say “man's_best_friend”， they don't mean another person. Instead, they are talking about a lovely animal: A dog! These words show the friendship between people and animals. Dogs and other pets can give happiness to people's lives. Some people think of their pets as their children. A few even leave all their money to their pets when they die!
Animals can help people, too. Dogs can be taught to become the “eyes” for a blind person or “ears” for a deaf people. Scientists have found that pets help people live longer! They make people happier, too. Because of that, animals are brought into hospitals for “visit”．
Americans hold “BeKindtoAnimals Week” in the first week of May. Pets shows are held during the week. Even if you don't live in America, you, too, can do this. How? First, think about how animals make your life richer. If you have a pet, take more time this week to play with it. Remember to give it delicious food. Also, be sure to keep your pet from babies.
If you don't have a pet, be kind to animals around you. For example, if you see a street dog, don't kick it or throw things at it. Instead, just leave it alone, or better yet, make friends with it. If others around you do bad things to an animal, try to stop them. As people, we must protect animals who can't speak for themselves.

Many animal and plant species have become extinct(灭绝的)and many more are in danger. Finding ways to protect the earth's wildlife and the natural world they inhabit is now more important than ever.
Dodo
The Dodo is a classic example of how human caused damage to the earth's biology. The flightless Dodo was native to the Island of Mauritius in the Indian Ocean. It lived off fruit fallen from the island's trees and lived unthreatened until humans arrived in 1505. The easily controlled bird became a source of food for sailors and was attacked by animals introduced to the island by humans such as pigs, monkeys and rats. The population of Dodos rapidly decreased and the last one was killed in 1681.
Whales
The International Whaling Commission is fighting to ensure the survival of the whale species. Despite the fact that onethird of the world's oceans have been declared whale sanctuaries(保护区), 7 out of 13 whale species remain endangered. Hunted for their rich supply of oil, their numbers have decreased to just 300. Collisions(碰撞)with ships, poisonous pollution and being caught in fishing nets are other major causes of whale deaths.
Tigers
The last 100 years has seen a 95% reduction in the numbers of remaining tigers to between 5,000 and 7,000 and the Bali, Javan, and Caspian tigers are already extinct. The South China tiger is precariously close to disappearing, with only 20 to 30 still alive. Tigers' bones and organs are sought after for traditional Chinese medicines. These items are traded illegally along with tiger skins.

A．the Dodo lacked the ability to protect itself from other animals
B．sailors to the Island of Mauritius lived mainly on the Dodo

很多动物都濒临灭绝。文章主要向读者介绍了三种或者已灭绝，或者濒临灭绝的动物(渡渡鸟，鲸，老虎)。

答案：A

答案：D
7．解析：细节理解题。根据文章末段倒数第二句Tigers' bones and organs are sought after for traditional Chinese medicines. 可知，虎骨及器官有很高的药用价值。
