該物種是僅產(chǎn)于印度洋毛里求斯島上一種不會飛的鳥。體型可比擬天鵝，也有明顯的兩性異形。體長70-90厘米，體重17-28千克。是一種體形豐滿的大鳥，全身覆蓋著柔軟的灰色羽毛，羽毛為棕色或灰色，雌鳥毛色較雄鳥淺。雌鳥一次產(chǎn)下一顆卵，由雌鳥和雄鳥共同孵育。以水果和種子為食。

它在被人類發(fā)現(xiàn)后僅僅200年的時間里，便由于人類的捕殺和人類活動的影響于1681年徹底絕滅，堪稱是除恐龍之外最著名的已滅絕動物之一。1.Thispassageismainlyabout________.themuseumtheislandthebird“dodo”While-reading2Readthepassage.Whathappenedtododos?Readthepassage,thenmatchthemainideaswitheachparagraph.Paragraph1Paragraph2Paragraph3Paragraph4Dodos’happyolddays.Introductionofdodos.Advicetopeople.Thereasonswhydodosdiedout.Asdeadasadodo1Areyoulookingatme?Doyouknowme?I'madodo!

thedead死者e.g.:一些節(jié)日是為了紀念死者而舉辦的。LanguagepointsSomefestivalsareheldtohonourthedead.dead相關(guān)詞匯：2.Whatapeacefulandsafelife!多么平靜和安穩(wěn)的生活啊！peaceful/?pi:sf?l/adj.和平的，非暴力的由“peace（作不可數(shù)名詞）（n.和平；平靜）+-ful（形容詞后綴）”構(gòu)成。e.g.:我們都熱愛和平，想過安寧的生活。Wealllovepeaceandwanttoliveapeacefullife.拓展：-ful表示“充滿……的”，是常見的形容詞后綴，通常加在某些名詞后構(gòu)成相應(yīng)的形容詞。colour（n.顏色）→colourful（adj.色彩豐富的）beauty（n.美麗）→beautiful（adj.美麗的）use（n.用途）→useful（adj.有用的）help（n.幫助）→helpful（adj.有幫助的）success（n.成功）→successful（adj.成功的）2.Whatapeacefulandsafelife!多么平靜和安穩(wěn)的生活啊！本句為what引導(dǎo)的感嘆句。what修飾名詞，其句式結(jié)構(gòu)為：

e.g.:多么漂亮的花園??！

e.g.:多么有趣的電影啊！Whatabeautifulgarden(itis)!Whatinterestingmovies(theyare)!3.However，in1598，humansarrived.然而，在1598年，人類來到了這里。arrive/??ra?v/v.到達，抵達arrive，getto與reach三者都有“到達，抵達”之意，區(qū)別如下：

e.g.:這列火車將在兩小時后到達北京。

e.g.:她是昨天下午到這兒的。Thetrainwillarrivein/getto/reachBeijingintwohours.Shearrived/got/reachedhereyesterdayafternoon.I.根據(jù)句意和提示，用單詞的適當(dāng)形式填空1.Wevisitedthe
