Steps are being taken to preserve the black robin. Detailed studies are going on, and a public appeal for money has been made. The idea is to buy another island nearby as a special home for threatened wild life, including black robins. The organizers say that Little Mangere should then tie supplied with the robin’s food— it eats only one kind of seed. Thousands of the required plants are at present being cultivated in New Zealand. The public appeal is aimed at the conscience of mankind, so that the wild black robin will not die out and disappear from the earth in our lime at least.
Is all this concern a waste of human effort？ Is it any business of ours whether the black robin survives or dies out？ Are we losing our sense of what is reasonable and what is unreasonable？
In the earth’ s long, long past hundreds of kinds of creatures have evolved, risen to a degree of success—and died out. In the long, long future there will be many new and different forms of life. Those creatures that adapt themselves successfully to what the earth offers will survive for a long time. Those that fail to meet the challenges will disappear early. This is Nature’s proven method of operation.
The rule of selection—the survival of the fittest—is the one by which human beings have themselves arrived on the scene. He, being one of the most adaptable creatures the earth has yet produced, may last longer than most. You may take it as another rule that when, at last, man shows signs of dying out , no other creature will extend a paw to postpone our departure. For Nature, though fair, is a hard-hearted mistress. She has no favorites.
Life seems to have grown too tough for black robins. I leave you to judge whether we should try to do something about it.
The black robins are getting fewer and fewer because ______.
听力原文： There are three groups of English learners: beginners, intermediate learners and learners of special English. Beginners need to learn the basis of English. Students who have reached an intermediate level benefit from learning general English skills. But what about the students who want to learn special English for their work or professional life？ Most students who fit the third group have a clear idea of what they want to learn. A bank clerk, for example, wants to use the special English vocabulary and technical terms of finance. But for teachers, deciding how to teach special English is not so easy. For a start, the variety is enormous. Every field, from air pilots to secretaries, has its own vocabulary and technical terms. Teachers also need to have an up-to-date knowledge of that special language and not many teachers are exposed to working environments outside the classroom. These issues have influenced the way special English is taught in schools. This type of course is usually known as English for specific purposes or ESP and there is ESP course for almost every area of professional and working life. In Britain, for example, there are courses which teach English for doctors, lawyers, reporters, travel agents and people working in the hotel industry. By far, the most popular ESP courses are for business English.
