Lost forever
Most people have heard about Didus ineptus, or the dodo, as it is more commonly known. It was the flightless, long-extinct（灭绝的）member of the dove family that lived in the Indian Ocean island of Mauritius. The name “dodo” comes from the Portuguese and means “a person who is foolish”; 31 , to call someone a “dodo” 32 their stupidity. The dodo was a foolish creature about the size of a turkey and was easily fooled by sailors who tapped on trees to 33 its attention. It would come 34 towards the sound and was easily caught and whisked on board ship to become a valuable source of fresh, but tough meat．
Another expression to appear from the 35 bird’s situation is to say that something is “as dead as a dodo”, which means long since dead, very much 36 , or deserted. Of the many animals that people have removed from the face of the earth, the dodo has probably made the greatest contribution to our 37 .
Another less well-known but 38 extinct bird is Aepyornis maximus, more commonly known as the elephant bird of Madagascar. This creature 39 a very thickset, three-metre-tall emu（鸸鹋） 40 over half a ton and is thought to be the largest bird that ever lived. It was big in every way, even its eggs were extremely large. An elephant bird egg could measure up to ninety centimetres in diameter and 41 nine liters of liquid, about 200 ordinary chicken eggs. The eggs were in fact three times larger than dinosaur eggs.
It’s hard to imagine how impressive the elephant bird must have been as it walked about proudly in its natural habitat. For thousands of years its size 42 was enough to scare the meat-eating animals. 43 it was a flightless bird, its sharp claws and powerful neck and beak ensured it could look after itself---that is, up until the Europeans arrived on Madagascar. They not only hunted elephant birds for food but began 44 their eggs as gifts. Sadly it was made 45 around I700, and the world became a much poorer place because of it
