①Extinctins, where entire species are wiped ut, are nt unusual in ur Earth’s histry. In fact, ver 90 percent f all species that ever lived are nw extinct. In the last 500 millin years, there have been five times when life n Earth has almst ended. These include the third mass extinctin, knwn as the “Great Dying”, which killed 90% t 96% f all species. And the fifth event, which ccurred 66 millin years ag, caused the death f the dinsaurs. The reasns fr extinctins are varied. Accrding t scientists, they include vlcanic eruptins, asterids hitting the Earth frm space, changes in sea levels, the decrease f the xygen cntent f the sea and glbal warming. Many scientists say we are nw entering the Earth’s sixth mass extinctin. This time, human activity will be t blame.
② Althugh it is nt unusual fr species t die ut naturally, the rate at which this is nw happening is cause fr cncern. A 2015 study by scientists wh were based at Brwn University and Duke University in the US, lked at hw quickly species die ut due t natural causes, that is, the “backgrund extinctin rate”. They fund that human activity is causing species t die ut 1,000 times faster than nrmal. There is a lng list f reasns why s many species are dying ut: air and water pllutin, frests being destryed, factry farming and verfishing. It is clear that human activity has negatively affected all ther species n Earth, including animals and plants.

If a sixth mass extinctin ccurs, scientists wh have studied the issue believe that up t three quarters f all species n Earth culd die ut. Of curse, as we humans depend n s many species fr ur survival, we wuld als be at risk f dying ut. Our wrld and ur lives depend n the balance in nature between animals and plants. Withut frests, we wuld have n air t breathe, and withut clean water we wuld be unable t survive.

Can a sixth extinctin be avided? Experts say that it is nt yet t late, if we take actin nw. This wuld mean we have t significantly change the way we live. Fr example, we need t take steps t save endangered species, including setting up special areas where plants and animals can be prtected. We need t change hw we wrk and travel by using cleaner, mre natural surces f energy, such as wind and slar energy. We als need t imprve ur farming methds t reduce water, air and land pllutin. In shrt, if we want t survive, we need t stp destrying the planet that we live n and start t prtect it.

The Black RbinBlack rbins are the birds that humans saved frm extinctin. In 1980, there were nly five black rbins left in the wrld. They all lived n a small island ff the cast f New Zealand. Only ne f thse birds, a female called Old Blue, was able t lay eggs. Wildlife wrkers began a prgramme fr raising black rbin chicks. They prtected Old Blue’s eggs, helped them t hatch, and tk care f the chicks.(幼鸟) Thanks t their effrts, there are nw mre than 250 black rbins, and the ppulatin(数量) is spreading. T help them survive, peple are restring their habitats and remving small animals that hunt them, such as mice and cats frm the islands where they live.
