In 1991, Jane Goodall sat down with some teenagers in Tanzania, a country in East Africa. The teenagers
said to her, “Your generation (一代人) has compromised (使陷入危险) our future, and there’s nothing we can do about it.” These teenagers gave her an idea, and together they created a program that is still making the world a better place many years later.
Goodall is one of the world’s most famous naturalists. Her work has changed the way we see animals.
For example, when Goodall began studying chimpanzees (黑猩猩) in Tanzania’s Gombe Stream National Park in 1960, she discovered that chimpanzees make and use tools, just like humans.
Goodall, who is now 83, travels around the world 300 days of the year. She shares her story with young
people and encourages them to “make the world a better place for people, animals, and the environment”.
On March 16 this year, Goodall visited the Academy of the Sacred Heart in Louisiana, USA. She told
the students there that it’s not too late to save our planet.
Goodall explained why she and those 12 teenagers in Tanzania started a youth program in 1991 called
Roots & Shoots. They wanted to show that “every single one of us matters and has some role to play in protecting the planet”.
After listening to Goodall speak, Sophia Schuler, a 12-year-old student at Sacred Heart, wanted to
act. “Just hearing about Dr. Goodall’s life and her love for chimpanzees makes me feel like a better person,” Sophia said. “Now that I’ve heard about Roots & Shoots, I plan to join it.”
Goodall said that her goal is to have every child on the planet taking part in the Roots & Shoots program, which now has members in 130 countries.
( )56. Goodall’s idea of creating Roots & Shoots came from ______. A. some African teenagers B. some famous naturalists C. her students D. her parents
( )57. The example in Paragraph 2 is used to show ______. A. how hard it can be to study animals

D. how Goodall’s work has changed people’s opinions on animals ( )58. How long is the history of Roots & Shoots? A. 12 years. C. 57 years.
