Folktales often explain how things came to be. For example, some stories explain why the rabbit has long ears or how the sun and moon were created. 2

Characters in folktales are often simple but symbolic. The clever fox, the brave lion, the hardworking ant—each represents a type of person or a quality. 3

Today, we still love these stories. They are made into movies, cartoons, and books. 4 The core lessons remain the same: be brave, be kind, use your wits.

The largest desert is not the Sahara, but Antarctica! A desert is defined by low precipitation, not just sand. 4 So it is technically a cold desert.

Pandas are black and white. Scientists think their coloring helps them hide in snowy and rocky habitats. 3 They are good at climbing trees and can swim.

For a long time, pandas were endangered. Their main threat was habitat loss. 4 Thanks to conservation efforts, their status was changed to "Vulnerable" in 2016, which is a little better.

Passage 21

Many animals in the world are in danger of disappearing forever. This is called being endangered. 1

The main reasons animals become endangered are: habitat loss, pollution, climate change, and illegal hunting. 2 Animals lose their homes and food sources.

For example, tigers need large forests to live and hunt. When forests are cut down, tigers have nowhere to go. 3 Their beautiful fur is valuable on the black market.

Sea turtles are another endangered species. They get caught in fishing nets by accident. 4 Also, the beaches where they lay eggs are often disturbed by tourists or development.

What can we do to help? We can learn about endangered animals. We can support wildlife protection organizations. 5 Every small action can make a difference in protecting our planet's amazing wildlife.

A. We can also reduce, reuse, and recycle to help the environment.
