She copied their actions and way of life — eating plants and getting down on her hands and knees to walk the way a gorilla does. It was a new relationship. Diane Fossey was murdered in Rwanda in 1985 and her story was made into the popular film Gorillas in the Mist. It was a long way from King Kong, which is about a gorilla as a monster (a frightening animal), and helped to show a new idea: the real monster is man, while the gorilla is to be admired. Today there are thought to be around 48,000 lowland gorillas and maybe 400—450 mountain gorillas in the wild. From the Congo in West Africa, to Rwanda and Uganda further east, they are endangered by hunting and by the cutting down of their forest homes. Some time ago, I found in my letterbox a little magazine from the World Wide Fund for Nature. It had two photos side by side. One was of a young gorilla. “This is a species of mammal(哺乳类动物),”saidthewords below it. “Itisbeing destroyed by man. We must save it forourowngood.” The other photo showed a human baby. The words also read, “Thisisaspecies of mammal,”butthenwenton: “Itisthemostdestructive(破坏性的) on earth. We must retrain it foritsowngood.” 56.The text mainly talks about _____. A. Diane Fossey B. the gorillas in Rwanda C. the protection of the gorillas D. the film Gorillas in the Mist 答案与解析:选C。文章第一段谈到Diane Fossey大猩猩的研究;第二段谈到根据她的事迹所拍摄的影片;第三段谈到了大猩猩数量减少的原因;最后一段谈到保护大猩猩的宣传。前面三段都是为最后一段作铺垫的, 从最后一段“Itisbeing destroyed by man. We mustsaveitforourowngood.”可知，最主要的目的还是要人们保护大猩猩。 例题2:On the Internet, we can read news at home and abroad and get as much information as we can.

What’s more, we can go to school on the net, read a lot of books and even teach ourselves foreign languages. We also enjoy music, watch ball matches on the net and play computer games. With the help of the net, we can do shopping even without leaving our homes. The Inter net is playing a more and more important part in our daily life. 1. What’s the main idea of the passage? A. Keep away from the Internet. B. Surf the net. C. The Internet is playing an important part in our daily life. D. We can entertain ourselves on the Internet. 答案与解析:选C。最后一句“The Internet is playing a more and more important part in our daily life.”(因特网在我们的生活中起着越来越重要的作用)是全文的主题句。A项(远离网络)与主题不符。B项(上网)过于笼统。D项(网上娱乐)只不过是短文中的一个细节，不全面。
