The first time a tortoise walked through my hut at Middle Camp on Aldabra

Atoll, I was amazed. I grabbed my camera and carefully positioned myself to take this

wildlife encounter. The second time: same thing. The third time: I picked up my

phone and took a snapshot. By the fourth or fifth time, I didn't even look when I felt

something bump into me. I knew what it was.

I was there to shoot a story about island restoration（修复） in the Seychelles,

far off the east coast of Africa in the Indian Ocean. Until roughly the middle of the

past century, the small island nation showed signs of real environmental killing-local

vegetation （植被）-cleared to make way for coconut plantations, foreign rats and

mice running uncontrolled, native sea turtles and giant tortoises being exploited. Bio-

diversity seemed destroyed. But then the country experienced a shift in conservation

awareness—and the giant Aldabra tortoises are among its most visible signs.

Every morning when I woke up and walked outside the hut, I had to remind my-

self that I hadn't traveled back in time. I could see flightless Aldabra rails, coconut

crabs the size of dinner plates, and giant tortoises-roughly four feet long and weighing

up to 550 pounds—just wandering around. The number of sharks in the bay was

crazy. Frigatebirds and boobies（鸟） nested in the mangroves （a kind of tree）.

When we left our hut doors open, which we often did to let in air, the tortoises would

walk right through.

In the late afternoon or early evening, whenever they'd finished eating, the tor-

toises would drop themselves down and fall asleep with their heads outstretched. That

made nighttime trips to the outhouse perilous（险恶的）. To get there, we'd have to

go 200 feet into the mangroves, negotiating what I called the tortoise slalom（之形障

碍） trail. It was a track without a pattern, because of course they picked different

places to sleep every night. Avoiding them was important: Falling headfirst over a tor-

toise onto the sharp coral rock could lead to serious injury on an island far from medi-

cal facilities.

Nothing was easy on Aldabra, and much of it was insanely difficult. Yet living

among the tortoises in this primordial place, in one of the last spots where reptiles still

rule, was one of the happiest times of my life.

4. How did the author feel about his final meeting with the tortoise in his room?

A. Calm B. Excited C. Concerned D. Disturbed

5. What made the wildlife on the island suffer during the last century?

A. Introducing foreign species. B. Killing too many rats and mice.

C. Planting lots of coconut trees. D. Repairing the building on the is-

land.

6. What does the author intend to do in paragraph 3?

A. To stress the importance of their work.

B. To introduce how large the tortoises are.

C. To present his daily routine on the island.

D. To show how the wildlife is diverse on the island.
