Since 1961, the World Wildlife Fund has rescued over 30 mammals and birds from near extinction. It has given more than 40 million dollars to conservation projects around the world. It has created and supported 260 national parks on five continents —a total area almost twice the size of Western Europe. But, there is still much more work to be done. The World Wildlife Fund’s biggest land campaign has been for the conservation of the tropical rain forest. In 1975, the organization began its “Save the Jungle” campaign to conserve key areas of rain forest. One reserve, created in Costa Rica’s Monteverde Cloud Forest, protects more than 1,000 species of plants, 300 species of birds and 100 species of mammals. The Quetzal, sacred bird of the Aztecs, now survives there.
When the author says that “there is still much more work to be done”, he means that the work has not been finished completely. has been very unfortunate. has not been successful. has been inadequate.

Tauris is a great and noble city, situated in a great province called Iraq, in which there are many other important towns and villages. However, as Tauris is the most noble, because it has been the strategic point for traveling toward China, I will tell you about it.
The men of Tauris make their living by trade and handicrafts, for they weave many kinds of beautiful and valuable items of silk and gold. The city has such a good position that now merchandise is brought there from India, Bagdad, Cremesor, and many other regions; and that attracts many Latin merchants, especially Genoese, to buy goods and to transact other business there; besides being a great market for precious stones. In fact, it is a city where local merchants make large profits.
The people of the place are themselves poor creatures. There are Armenians, Nestorians, Jacobites, Georgians, Persians, and finally the natives of the City themselves, who are worshippers of Muhammad. They are known as the Taurizi. The city is completely surrounded by lovely gardens, full of many varieties of large and excellent fruits and flowers.
Latin traders were attracted to Tauris because it was an active commercial center. the most noble city of Iraq. the Muhammadan religious center. a mixture of rich towns and villages.

One of world's best magicians was Harry Houdini. He could open any kind of lock, escape from anything and also get out of handcuffs very fast. He often did the handcuff trick under the water. Once, he did it under the ice of a river
A hole was cut in the ice for him. Then he went down into the icy water, with handcuffs on. The water carried him away fromthe hole. Six minutes went by. Houdini did not come up. Two more minutes went by. Then he came up through the little hole in the ice. How had he stayed under so long? He knew there was a little air between the water and the ice. With this air to breathe, he had swam back to the hole.
The expression ''went by'' underlined in line 7, may be substituted by ran run past passed.
