It is possible that in 50 years the only tigers in the world will be in zoos. One hundred years ago there were  maybe 100,000 tigers in the world. Today scientists are not sure how many are left, as it is difficult to count them. There rnay be only between 5,000 and 7,000 tigers in the world.       Tigers are only found in Asia. Already they have disappeared from many countries. There are no longer any Caspian(黑海的) tigers in Central Asia. They have died out in the two  islands  of Java (爪哇 ) and Bali (巴里) . The situation in some parts of Asia is also very serious. There are perhaps only 100 Chinese tigers left. In eastern Russia, the number is a little higher. There are about 450 tigers left. On the island of Sumatra (苏门答腊) , which has many thick forests , there are maybe 500 tigers.       Why has the number fallen so quickly? The first reason is that tigers are meat-eaters. They need a lot of land to find enough food. Also they live in forests and many of these have been cut down. At one time, tiger shooting was a sport , especially in India. Local(当地的) people some- times kill tigers because they kill their cows. The other reason is that dead tigers are used for Traditional Chinese Medicine. All parts of the body are used, including the bones and whiskers (须) . People who take TCM think chat these medicines will make them live longer.       How can we protect the tigers that are left? First, some wildlife parks have been created. In these reserves (自然保护区 ) ,local people may not kill tigers and the forests may not be cut down. And 145 countries have agreed to stop selling tiger parts for medicine. With luck , the tigers can be protected in the few areas of the world where they still live.

据专家权威分析，试题“阅读理解。 It is possible that in 50 years the only tigers i..”主要考查你对  历史文化类阅读  等考点的理解。关于这些考点的“档案”如下：

历史文化类阅读

考点名称：历史文化类阅读

• 历史文化类阅读：
  本类题型常用的方式是夹叙夹议。叙述的目的是为了议，所以要把握其议才是主要方面。
  阅读这类文章，先弄清其引入的话题，再弄清里面人物对其不同的看法，然后理解作者本身对话题的观点看法或思考。

• 初中英语阅读理解的解题技巧：
  一、要注意养成良好的阅读心理，阅读时要去掉杂念，心绪要安定，精神要专一，要形成一种惬意的顺向心理。
  切不可一遇到几个生词难句，就心烦意乱，失去自控能力。心理学家告诉我们，任何恐慌，过分紧张的情绪都会形成一种消极因素妨碍大脑的正常思维功能。
  因此，遇到困难一定要从容不迫，心无旁骛。这样才能对所读的文章印象清晰，理解深刻。
  
  二、要提高视读的速度，考阅读理解，从另一个方面来说，考的是考试速度。因此做阅读理解时，要注意培养自己快速阅读的习惯。
  切不可在个别难懂的词句上磨蹭，只要全篇理解了，个别难懂的词句可以根据上下文和构词法去猜测，去推断。
  
  三、对文章的评价分析，一定要坚持“词不离句，句不离篇”，要理解文章作者的原意，而不能按你自己的意愿去想当然。
  切记：一想当然，就会出错。
