People love and need animals. They keep them in their homes and on their farms. They enjoy going to zoos, and watching animals on films and on TV. Little children love to play with toy animals. But people are a great danger to animals too. They take their land, and cut down the trees where animals have their homes. They pollute the rivers and seas, and kill big animals for their skins or for medicine. Now there are about 7,000 species of animals in danger. What can we do to protect the animals of the world - from us?

stage 4 - 1400 headwords Every day disaster strikes somewhere in the world. As we watch disasters on television and read about them in the newspapers, we feel a mixture of fascination and fear. Some disasters have always been with us: earthquakes, volcanoes, tornadoes and floods are as common today as they were in the past. Others, like the nuclear disaster of Chernobyl, are the result of our own technology. This book looks at both types of disaster, and at what we can learn from them.
