Reading Section

It’s no accident that the symbol of the World Wide Fund for Nature is a giant
panda. These animals are cute or beautiful, or both, and of course we all want to
save them. This popularity enables organizations such as the WWF to raise
money to support a range of critically endangered species. However, less
well-known or ‘exciting’ creatures are far more likely to become extinct because
they don’t get enough attention from researchers. Invertebrates (animals without
a backbone) make up over 90% of all the creatures on Earth, but get only a tiny
percentage of the money available to protect our wildlife.

The idiom to bury your head in the sand means to ignore a problem in
the hope that it will go away. The saying is based on the behaviour of
ostriches, known for using their beaks to dig holes in which to hide their
head from enemies. The only problem is that this is not actually normal
ostrich behavior. The myth that the world's largest birds do this is probably
based on the writings of Pliny the Elder. He was a famous Roman naturalist
who suggested around two thousand years ago that ostriches 'imagine,
when they have thrust their head and neck into a bush, that the whole of
their body is concealed.' Considering ostriches are the fastest creatures on
two legs and have a kick powerful enough to kill a lion, they are much more
likely to run or fight than try to hide.

A) To confront a problem directly B) To ignore a problem in hopes it will

disappear

C) To hide from danger D) To seek help for a problem

2) Which bird is the idiom "to bury your head in the sand" associated with?

A) Eagle B) Sparrow C) Ostrich D) Penguin

3) What is the origin of the myth regarding ostriches burying their heads?

A) Modern wildlife documentaries B) Ancient Greek folklore

C) Writings of Pliny the Elder D) Native American legends

4) According to the paragraph, what is a more typical behavior of ostriches when

faced with danger?

A) Hiding in the sand B) Running away or fighting C) Climbing trees D) Flying

away

5) How does the paragraph characterize ostriches in relation to their physical

abilities?

A) They are slow and timid.

B) They are the largest birds but lack strength.

C) They are the fastest creatures on two legs and have a powerful kick.
