They have spotted more than 300 kinds of birds as well as many rare and threatened animal species. But, this was not the scene i

19、n 1991 when Anil and Pamela came to this part of the country. “When I came here, it was a wasteland. The owner wanted to sell because he couldnt grow coffee or anything else,” says Anil who worked in the real estate（房地产）and restaurant business in the US before moving to India. “For me and Pamela, th

20、is was what we were looking for all our life.”The couple had a love for nature from their childhood. When the Malhotras came to India, the pollution horrified them. “That was when we decided to do something to reclaim（开垦）the forest in India,” says Anil. “We were not looking for money. Early on, we r

21、ealized that shortage of fresh water will be a concern for India and the rest of the world.

22、ica, bought the first 55 acres and began to grow a forest.

26、s. D. They have no knowledge of agriculture.CGreen tree ants are important builders in the rainforest. Theyre like the worker bees of the ant world. The native forest of Thala Beach Nature Reserve is the natural home of these insects.They climb all over the tree that contains their nest and protect

27、it from enemies with great fierceness. The ants are often in the fruiting trees of Tropical North Queensland. When an animal tries to help themselves to some tasty fruit, they find themselves attacked by a powerful, frightening army of green tree ants! Their bite is not very painful but many ants at

28、tacking at the same time can be extremely uncomfortable.The nests are large and constructed by sticking the leaves at the end of branches together to create a home looking roughly like a globe. Most of the nest construction and weaving is conducted at night. A mature colony of green tree ants can ho

29、ld as many as 100,000 to 500,000 workers and may include as many as 12 trees and contain as any as 150 nests.

Look up into the trees and youll likely spot their nests.28. What does Paragraph 2 tell us about green tree ants?A. They often start wars for food.
