Dr. Jane Goodall and the chimps

简 · 古多尔 (Jane Goodall, 1934—) 生于伦敦。自幼即对动物行为极感兴趣。 18 岁离开学校，到赴非洲为止，她曾先后担任过秘书以及影片制作助理。此后，她在非洲担任古生物学家路易斯 · 利基的助手，与利基的合作经验使她能于 1960 年在贡贝溪动物保护区设立一个营区，得以观察该地黑猩猩的行为。 1965 年获剑桥大学动物行为学博士学位。 1977 年她建立了“简 · 古多尔人、动物与环境研究所”。 1991 年，她倡议并成立了“根与芽”组织，目的是使从幼儿园到大学的年轻一代都能够行动起来，为了环境、动物和他们自己的社区创造一个更加美好的世界。 1995 年，被英国女王授予勋爵士。简 · 古多尔撰有许多书籍和论文，最著名的是《生活在人类的阴影中》 (1971), 此著作已被翻译成 15 种文字。 菲利普 ·

2.What should we learn from Jane Goodall?

3. What do you think is the best way to protect wildlife?

1. What made her a great success?

We think that there are two points that mad her successful. One is her way to study chimps, and the other is her true love to the animals. The first one is facile( 容易作到的 ), because it is only a way. Everyone can do it. But for the second one, it is more easily said than done. As a woman, she gave up everything, went to the forest to study the chimps and devoted all her love to these animals. It is really not easy. What we cannot understand is that how she has such great personality ( 人格，个性 ).

2.What should we learn from Jane Goodall?

wisdom and couragedeeply love to the animals.

her considerationher hard work

3. What do you think is the best way to protect wildlife? We should call for all the

citizens to love wildlife, protect their living conditions, forbid hunters to kill them freely, build more natural reserves for them and we shouldn’t disturb them. The national wildlife protection parks shouldn't be open to the tourists. Make people aware of the importance of wildlife protection.
