16. Listening text SAVING WILD BIRDS Part A: two problems Hu Xiao is a senior high student who shows a great interest in wildlife protection. Today he has got a good chance to interview a volunteer, Alice Brown, from IBRRC.

17. HX: Hello, Alice. I’m so interested in your work saving birds! What do you think is the most difficult part of your work? AB: Well…I suppose it’s saving wild birds covered in oil. That’s the most difficult of all. HX: How does that happen? AB: The oil comes from boats. It floats on the water and covers the bird’s

18. feathers when they swim through it. HX: That sounds terrible. What do you do about it? AB: The first thing we do is make sure the bird hasn’t eaten too much oil. When a bird’s covered in oil, it tries to clean itself with its beak. As it does so, the bird eats some oil and becomes sick.

19. HX: Oh dear! Do the birds always die? AB: Sometimes…but we try to save them. Birds use their feathers like a raincoat to keep out cold water. When feathers are covered in oil, they stick together and a bird’s skin gets cold in the water. So without help the bird would die of cold!

20. HX: What do you do with those birds? AB: First, we comfort a bird by feeding it and keeping it warm. Then we clean it. We rub the bird very carefully. We use warm water and a little soap and work quickly as the birds hate being touched. Part B: the solution

21. HX: Is this a difficult job? AB: Yes, because it’s very important to do the job quickly. HX: What happens after that? AB: The birds are kept warm and given a rest. HX: I suppose after that they want to touch their feathers with their beaks.

22. AB: Yes, they do. Birds produce a natural oil in their tails and put this over their feathers until they feel better. HX: Thank you. I’ve learned a lot. AB: Not at all. It’s been my pleasure.
