A thousand years ago Hong Kong was covered
by a thick forest. As more and more people came to 31 in Hong Kong, these trees
were cut down and burnt. Now there is 32 forest left, though there are still some small areas covered with
trees. We call these woods.
Elephants,
tigers and many 33 animals were living in the
thick forest. When people came to live in Hong Kong, the 34 began to die out. Early
farmers grew rice and 35 pigs and chickens in the valleys. They cut down the trees and burnt
them. They needed 36 to keep themselves warm in winter, to cook their food and to keep
away the dangerous animals. Elephants quickly disappeared because there was not
enough food for them. 37 did most of the wolves and tigers. Monkeys and many other animals
soon 38 in the same way.
You
might think that there are no longer any animals in Hong Kong 39 in the zoos. But there are
still about 36 different animals 40 there. One of the most interesting of Hong Kong's animals is the
barking deer. These are beautiful little animals 41 a rich brown coat and a
white patch (补丁)
under the tail. They look like deer but they are much smaller. They are less
than two feet 42 . They make a noise rather
like a dog 43 . In Hong Kong the barking
deer has only a real enemy-- 44 . People hunt these little animals though it is illegal (违法的). There are now not many
barking deer left. So it is important 45 people to protect wild animals.
