<b>Totally Wild Hotel</b>
WHERE: Kenya, Africa
WHY IT'S SPECIAL:
Ever have the feeling you're being watched? That's because a giraffe might be at your hotel window! The hotel is home to about 10 Rothschild's giraffes that walk around the house. Some of the giraffes may stick their heads into your bedroom window right off the breakfast table. Mpingo and Glorja, two of the youngest giraffes, are sometimes seen playfully running through the national park next to the hotel.
<b>COOL THINGS ABOUT KENYA</b>
Kenya is about the same size as the state of Texas.
The elephants in Kenya's Tsavo East National Park cover themselves in a kind of soil(泥土), which turns them red.
<b>THINGS TO DO IN KENYA</b>
Cheer on camels—some running the wrong way—at the Camel Derby(比赛) in the town of Maralal.
Go to see lions, zebras, leopards, and elephants in Masai Park near the border(边境) with Tanzania.
Bird-watch at Lake Nakuru, where thousands of bright pink flamingos(火烈鸟) get together each year.
Walk through historic Lamu Old Town to see 700-year-old houses made partly of coral stone.

Recently, many people have fallen in love with the cute marmots(土拨鼠) because of the online short videos about their fighting. This led a group of people to buy real marmots online as pets. However, many organizations have quickly warned (警告) people that these seemingly lovely wild animals are actually high-risk carriers of the plague (瘟疫).
Marmots are common rodents(啮齿目动物) in North-west China. Listed as a second-class protected animals in China, they always choose cool mountain grasslands, open deserts, and rocky hills as their homes. They are good at digging (挖) holes, which are usually deep and each hole has a different use. Fresh grass, juicy plants, and treats like apples or lettuce fill their diet. Living in family groups, these social animals work together and share information often to stay alive in the difficult environment.
Marmots may look harmless, but these furry animals carry plague bacteria (
The National Health Commission advises:
⦁ Keeps safe distance(距离)when meeting wild marmots.
⦁ Never keep them as pets, touch, or feed them.
⦁ Report animals to wildlife experts (专家) instead of helping them directly.
⦁ Go to hospital in time if you develop a fever or lumps after touching them.
The recent online videos of feeding and touching marmots have raised warning. While their round faces might make us want to get close, health organizations warn everyone that cuteness isn’t worth risking lives. Protecting both wildlife and public health means watching animals safely from a faraway place.

最近,很多人因为网上关于土拨鼠打架的短视频而爱上了这些可爱的土拨鼠。这使得一群人在网上购买真正的土拨鼠当作宠物。然而,很多机构很快警告人们,这些看似可爱的野生动物实际上是瘟疫的高风险携带者。
土拨鼠是中国西北地区常见的啮齿目动物。作为中国的二级保护动物,它们总是选择凉爽的山地草原、开阔的沙漠和多石的山丘作为自己的栖息地。它们擅长挖洞,这些洞通常很深,而且每个洞都有不同的用途。新鲜的草、多汁的植物以及像苹果或生菜这样的食物构成了它们的饮食。这些群居动物以家庭为单位生活,它们会共同协作并经常分享信息,以便在恶劣的环境中生存下来。
土拨鼠看起来可能无害,但这些毛茸茸的动物携带鼠疫杆菌,这种病菌会引发一种疾病,就像14世纪的黑死病一样,导致超过1亿人死亡。这种疾病可以通过小伤口甚至飞沫传播,会引起高烧、皮肤下的疼痛肿块以及出血。如果不进行治疗,它是非常危险的,存活的几率低至零。
国家卫生健康委员会建议:
- 遇到野生土拨鼠时保持安全距离。
- 永远不要把它们当作宠物,不要触摸或喂食它们。
- 向野生动物专家报告这些动物,而不是直接帮助它们。
- 如果触摸它们后出现发烧或肿块的情况,要及时去医院。
最近网上关于喂养和触摸土拨鼠的视频引发了警示。虽然它们圆圆的脸可能会让我们想要靠近,但卫生机构警告每个人,可爱并不值得以生命为代价。保护野生动物和公共健康意味着从远处安全地观察动物。
( )5. 最近是什么引起了人们对土拨鼠的兴趣?
A. 一份关于土拨鼠的报告。
B. 网上一些有趣的短视频。
C. 一项关于土拨鼠的新研究。
D. 政府的保护法规。
( )6. 如果你在野外发现一只受伤的土拨鼠,你应该怎么做?
A. 把它带回家进行医疗护理。
B. 别管它,避免触摸。
C. 在网上分享它的照片。
D. 及时向野生动物专家报告。
( )7. 作者在第三段中提到黑死病是为了表明______。
A. 这种疾病并不严重
B. 土拨鼠可能真的很危险
C. 土拨鼠是如何进化的
D. 过去的医疗护理不好
( )8. 这篇文章最好的标题是什么?
A. 土拨鼠:可爱的动物还是无声的杀手?
B. 土拨鼠的网上视频
C. 黑死病的历史
D. 如何保护野生啮齿目动物
