Dog Plays "Mother" to Tiger Cubs

People at a zoo in China have used a dog named Balu to play mother to three newborn Siberian tigers.

The newborn tigers at the Shanghai Wild Animal Park, including one male and two females, were abandoned by their mother. They were very much in need of being breast-fed and the zoo called for Balu.

The first time the 7-year-old bitch acted as a tiger's mother was five years ago when a Siberian tiger became too sick and weak to feed her four babies and the park had to place an advertisement for a replacement.

Since then the animal owned by a farmer from Nanhui has been asked to play mother for 12 tiger cubs on four occasions.

Officials from the park came calling for her services two months ago shortly after she had given birth to her own two puppies.

Park spokesman Su Feilong recalled: "She was very strong at first sight. Though the tiger cubs were much bigger than her, she regarded them as her own children and fed them wholeheartedly."

Balu has now taken to breast-feeding both her own and "adopted" babies, according to Shanghai Daily.

Mr Su told the paper: "She is a loving mother, especially to those tigers. When those naughty cubs fought against her own puppies, she never got angry with them but tried to make them quiet with a gentle hug."

1.W here does the story take place? C

A.In a park in Northwest China.

B.In a zoo in downtown Shanghai.

C.In a wild animal park in Shanghai.

D.In an amusement park in Nanhui.

2.IPS What can we learn about a female Siberian tiger in the park?

B

.She gave birth to three babies recently, one female and two males.

A.She gave birth to three babies but left them.

B.She got very sick and weak after giving birth so she

had no milk for her babies.

C.She became a mother for the first time so she didn't

know how to feed her babies.

3.IPS What did the park do five years ago when the mother of four

tiger cubs was too sick to look after her babies? A .They advertised in the local papers for an animal to take the place of the mother.

A.They looked for another tiger to feed the babies.

B.They employed special zoo keepers to feed the cubs.

C.They gave the tiger cubs to other wild animal parks.

4.IPS What can you learn from the story? C

.Dogs are always used to breast-feed other newborn

animals when the need arises.

A.All animals have motherly love for their own babies.

B.Not all animals have motherly love for their young.

C.Female tigers are irresponsible mothers.

To host the 29th Summer Olympic Games in 2008, Beijing needs 35 stadiums in all. Thirty of them will be in Beijing, with 15 of them newly built. The first on the list is the building of the Olympic Park or "Olympic Green."

The Olympic Green will be located at the northern tip of central Beijing, to the north of downtown area and to the east of a district famous for science, education and historical buildings. Covering a total area of 1,215 hectares, the Olympic Green consists of 760 hectares of woods and grassland, a 50-hectare Chinese Nationalities Museum and a 405-hectare International Exhibition and Sports Center. The Olympic Green will become a state-of-the-art center of cultural, recreational and sports activities in Beijing.

The Olympic Green also has an area of sports venues. In the area, an

80,000-seat main stadium and 15 other sports venues are now under construction. When completed, they will be able to host 12 major sports competitions at the same time, including track and field events. The International Exhibition and Sports Center will also be built in this area.
