Read the text and answer the questions choosing the right answer.
Line number

1. Many plants and animals went extinct due to human activity. Few are as well-known as the dodo. You may
2. have heard that they were fat, slow, and stupid. You may have heard that humans hunted them to the point
3. of extinction. The only place the dodo ever lived was the island of Mauritius. Mauritius is smaller than
4. Rhode Island. It is off the coast of Madagascar, a much larger island east of Africa. There were no mammals
5. on Mauritius before humans arrived. The dodo descended from pigeons that had flown to Mauritius. These
6. pigeons found that this island had clean water and lots of fruit. Also, no predators lived there. They could
7. relax and live in peace. Over millions of years, they evolved to become big and flightless. They became
8. dodos.
9. Humans discovered Mauritius during the Age of Exploration. The Dutch colonized the island in 1638. They
10. tried to farm and settle the land. They wanted the island to be more like their homes in the Netherlands.
11. They brought pigs, chickens, cats, and other animals, even deer. They also brought the rats that hid on their
12. ships.
13. The colonists hunted and ate many dodos. The birds had never faced predators. They were not stupid
14. though. They learned to run from humans. They might have even adapted and survived, if it weren't for the
15. other new mammals on Mauritius. The cats and rats ate the dodos' eggs. Since dodos could not fly, they
16. were unable to hide their eggs in trees like other birds. The new pigs, chickens, and livestock on the island
17. now competed with the dodos for food. The dodos had to go deeper and deeper into the forests of Mauritius
18. to survive. At the same time, the colonists were clearing the forests to make farmland. This total ecological
19. attack was too much for these great birds.
20. The last recorded encounter with a dodo happened in 1662. A shipwrecked sailor wrote that he and his
21. friends had caught a dodo. He said that the bird made a great noise and all the bird's friends ran to assist it.
22. The men then captured them all. Truly this bird was too noble for this world.
23. No one noticed the extinction of the dodo when it happened. The concept didn't even exist at the time. The
24. word "extinction" wouldn't even be used in that way for another 100 years. People just weren't aware of
25. their impact on the environment. They didn't know about the delicate balance of life. In 1833, a study of
26. the dodo helped to prove the concept of human-induced extinction.
27. To make things worse, the Dutch colonies failed. The Dutch abandoned Mauritius in 1710. Sadly, the dodo
28. was not the only animal that was wiped out. It was only the most popular. Hundreds of plants and animals
29. from Mauritius are now gone forever due to human activity.
