Study Plan - The Forty-Fourth Day

美国研究员戴安·福西深入研究大猩猩的生活习性,记录了它们的数量、饮食习惯及生存环境。面对大猩猩遭受猎杀的现状,她离开非洲前往英国深造并取得动物学博士学位。返回非洲后,她发现情况并未改善,甚至她所关注的大猩猩也遭猎杀。

Dictation: (People in America)

    The American researcher was able to sit among the gorillas and play with them and their young. She made notes of everything she saw. She took a count, or census, of the gorilla population. She noted what the animals ate and their environment. 

    Fossey learned a lot about the gorillas. But it became diffcult for her to remain an independent observer. She believed that the animals would disappear forever unless something was done to protect them and their environment.

    Dian Fossey needed money to continue her research project. She believed that she could get more financial assistance for her work by getting an advanced degree. She left Africa in nineteen servnty and attended the University of Cambridge in England. She received a doctorate zoology a few years later.

    Fossey returned to Rwanda to find that hunters were killing some of what she called "her gorillas". The hunters earned money by selling the heads, hands and feet ot the animals. Among the gorillas killed was one called Digit.
