30、citizen of the earth can do to help reduce the effects of global warming, and its never too late or too early for children to take action.The children should learn what a carbon footprint is. A carbon footprint is the amount of carbon and greenhouse gases people make as they lead the daily life and

39、e wild. By the turn of the century, the number of tigers outside of catch decreased to just over 3,000. Interestingly, the most serious threats that tigers face come from a much smaller species, one with an average weight of around 140 lbs. That species is Homo sapiens, better known as humans. 17 .

40、Tigers are hunted for many reasons. 18 Though trading tiger skins is now illegal in most parts of the world, tiger furs are worth around $.10,000 on the black market. Though the fur would be incentive（刺激）enough for most hunters, other parts of the tiger can also fetch a pretty penny. Some people in

41、China and other Asian cultures believe that various tiger parts have cure function. Traditional Chinese medicine calls for the use of tiger bones, among other parts, to cure some disease.Tigers have also been hunted as a game, 19 Such killings took place in a large scale during the 19th and early 20

42、th centuries, when an English hunter might demand to kill over a hundred tigers in their hunting career. Though this practice is much less popular today than it was in the past, it has not stopped entirely.Humans have done great damage to the worlds tiger population through hunting, but perhaps more

43、 damage has been caused through the destruction of habitat. Tigers once ranged widely across Asia, all the way from Turkey to the eastern coast of Russia. 20 The tiger population is now isolated in small pockets in southern and southeastern Asia. This is because humans have heavily changed the envir

44、onments. Humans have built towns and cities. Road and transport systems were created to connect these towns and cities. To feed the people living in these areas, forests and fields have been cleared to create farmland. A major difficulty to preserving tigers is the large amount of territory（领土，领域）th

45、at each tiger requires. Each wild tiger demands between 200 and 300 square miles. Because tigers need so much territory, it is really difficult to acquire enough land to support a large population of tigers.A. Though humans have done great harm to tigers.B. A lion is not as large as a tiger but runs

46、 faster than it.C. People have long valued the famous striped（有条纹的）skins.D. But over the past 100 years, tigers have lost 93% of their historic range.E. Humans threaten tigers in primarily two ways： hunting and destroying habitat.F. In other words, people hunted tigers only for the thrill and achiev

47、ement of killing them.G.
