A. Read the following test carefully.
THE LEOPARD
Leopards are the best athletes in the
animal kingdom: they run very fast, jump
very high and they are very good
swimmers.
They rest during the day and they hunt
during the night, so it’s difficult for
humans to see them. They eat wild sheep,
goats, deer, monkeys, cheetahs, fish and
of course, people. When they are young,
they hunt for mice and birds.
In the wild, leopards live for about 12 years, but in zoos they often live much longer,
as long as 25 years. Leopards live in Africa and Asia. They can live in any kind of
climate if they have enough to eat. They can live in forest, in deserts and in the
snow.
There are people (called hunters or poachers) that kill leopards to sell their fur for
a lot of money. We must help the leopard because it is one of the endangered
species in the world.
