Mr Razavi: Yeah, an Iranian cheetah. It is an endangered animal.

Maryam: I know. I heard around 70 of them are alive. Yes?

Mr Razavi: Right, but the number will increase.

Maryam: Really?! How?

Mr Razavi: Well, we have some plans. For example, we are going to protect their homes, to make movies about their life, and to teach people how to take more care of them.

Answer the following questions orally.

1. Where are they talking?

2. Are there many cheetahs alive?

3. Do you take care of animals?

Today, there are some endangered animals on Earth.

It means that we can find only a few of them around us.

Some examples are whales, pandas, tigers and Asian elephants.

Humans destroy the natural homes of the animals in the forests, lakes, and plains.

When the number of people on Earth increases, they need more places for living.

They cut down trees and destroy lakes.

They make homes and roads instead.

Then the animals won't have a place to live.

They will die out.

The Iranian cheetah is among these animals.

This wild animal lives only in the plains of Iran.

Now there are only a few Iranian cheetahs alive.

If people take care of them, there is hope for this beautiful animal to live.

Recently, families pay more attention to nature, students learn about saving wildlife, and some hunters don't go hunting anymore.

In this way, the number of cheetahs is going to increase in the future.

1. In the past, many hunters paid attention to wildlife.

2. Families are interested in protecting nature.

3. When people take care of cheetahs, the number of these animals will increase.

C. Match two halves.

1. When only a few numbers of an animal live on Earth, it means that it is an endangered animal.

2. If we take care of Iranian cheetahs, they will live in the future.

3. People need more places for living, when their number increases.
