Questions 26 to 30 are based on the following passage.
Wild animals are an important part of our world. They live in different habitats, from the hot deserts to the cold polar regions, and from the thick rainforests to the vast oceans. However, many wild animals are in danger of disappearing forever.
One of the main reasons for this is habitat loss. As the human population grows, we need more land for building houses, farms, and roads. This often means destroying the natural homes of wild animals. For example, the rainforests are being cut down at a fast speed, which is the home to countless species of animals. Without their habitats, these animals have nowhere to live and no food to eat.
Another reason is poaching. Some people hunt wild animals for their valuable parts, such as the ivory of elephants, the fur of tigers, and the horns of rhinos. This illegal activity has led to a sharp decline in the number of these precious animals.
We must take action to protect wild animals. Governments around the world are making laws to stop poaching and protect habitats. Also, we can all do our part. For example, we can support organizations that work to protect wildlife, and we can reduce our use of products that come from wild animals. By working together, we can make sure that wild animals continue to live on our planet.
