（2021·河南·中牟县教育体育局教学研究室八年级期中）A 5.7-meter-tall giraffe has
been named the world’s tallest giraffe by Guinness World Records.
Twelve-year-old Forest has been officially named the tallest living giraffe after the
workers at Australia Zoo in Queensland, Australia were able to measure him after months of
trying.
They made a measuring pole (测量杆) and put it close to a feeding station in the giraffe
house. They then waited several months to get the videos and photos needed by Guinness
World Records.
Forest lived in Auckland Zoo in New Zealand at birth, and was moved to Australia Zoo
when he was 2 years old. He is much taller than the other two giraffes at the zoo, both of
whom are female (雌性的). Forest has been very important at the zoo. As the father of 12
young giraffes, he is still in the breeding period (繁殖期).
Giraffes are the tallest animals on Earth. The average (平均的) adult male giraffe is
between 4.6 and 5.5 meters tall. The tallest giraffe was 5.8 meters tall. The giraffe, called
George, arrived at England’s Chester Zoo from Kenya in 1959, but died in 1969.

helping to make sure that giraffes will still be around in the future.

Thanks to the bamboo plantations (种植园), giant pandas in Belgium and the UK have
enough fresh bamboo to eat during the COVID-19.
Each week, around 1,000 kilograms of fresh bamboo are delivered(运) from La
Bambouseraie, a bamboo plantation in France, to the Belgian zoo of Pairi Daiza, where two
giant pandas live with their three children.
The history of the La Bambouseraie can be traced back to 1856, when Eugene Mazel
began his first plantings by testing species(种类) from different parts of the world. Today,
more than 240 kinds of bamboos grow in the park. Now more than 20 different species of
bamboos are used to feed the pandas.
Those 1,000 kilograms of bamboo are delivered every week, only a part is eaten by the
pandas. The rest of it is used to feed other animals in the zoo, including elephants, red pandas
and giraffes. In this way, no bamboo is wasted.
In the UK’s Edinburgh Zoo, fresh bamboo comes from the Netherlands. Jo Elliot, a
manager at Edinburgh Zoo, said, “Many of the animals have their own diets—especially the
pandas Tian Tian and Yang Guang need their bamboo. Their food has not been affected by the
COVID-19.”
Earlier this month, however, Canada’s Calgary Zoo said it would be returning two giant
pandas to China because limited flights were possible due to COVID-19 and there was not
enough bamboo for the pandas.
31．How many pandas are there in Belgian zoo of Pairi Daiza?
A．3. B．4. C．5. D．6.
32．What do we know about the La Bambouseraie?
A．It has giant pandas living there.
B．Bamboo from here is provided only for pandas.C．Eugene Mazel is the manager of La Bambouseraie.
D．It has a long history of more than 160 years.
33．Where is the bamboo that Tian Tian eats from?
A．Bekgium. B．The Netherlands. C．The UK. D．France.
34．Why did the Calgary Zoo want to return two giant pandas to China?
A．It didn’t have enough money.
B．It wanted the giant pandas to take a plane.
C．It hoped to leave a good impression on China.
D．It was hard to get enough bamboo for the pandas.
35．Where can we read the passage?
