According to the report, the species can be saved if immediate action is taken to control their natural predators (天敌) and other threats.The threatened animals can be found in the faraway Kimberley region of northwestern Australia. The region is similar in square miles to California. Thirty percent of the endangered species are unique to the region, while others have already disappeared in other parts of Australia.Dr. Tara Martin, a research scientist said in the report, “A large extinction event is happening in Australia. The north has really been the last stronghold (主要栖息地) for many species of birds and mammals and reptiles. The Kimberley is really their last chance on Earth.”Many of the species are under threat because they are hunted by wild cats. These cats kill around 500,000 native animals in the Kimberley region every day. The species face another threat, too. Their native habitat is also being destroyed by wildfires and by wild donkeys and goats that compete for food and water. Humans introduced cats, donkeys and goats to Australia to be farm animals or pets. However, their populations have exploded in the region because they have few natural predators.The report calls for $96 million to immediately start protection programs. The report also suggests reducing wild donkey and goat populations in the region, building fences, fighting wildfires and educating the community about how to help the endangered species. Richard Hobbs, an ecologist at the University of Western Australia, says the costs are worthwhile because the measures will not be too difficult to carry out.28. Which of the following should be done to protect the rare species of Australian animals?A. Providing new habitat for them.B. Supplying more food and water to them.C. Getting rid of the dangers to them.D. Leading them to the north of Australia for a better life.29. Paragraphs 2-3 mainly tell us _.A. where the threatened animals can be foundB. how worrying the situation of the rare animals isC. the Kimberley is the home of many rare speciesD. the Kimberley is a safe place for animals to live30. According to the text, the following are threats to the rare species EXCEPT_.A. wild cats B. wild goats C. wild donkeys D. humans31. How many measures are mentioned in the last paragraph?A. Four. B. Five. C. Six. D. Seven.DArgentina（阿根廷） lies in the South America. There are many festivals in Argentina during the year.
