Putting a dinosaur skeleton（骨架）together is not easy. The skeletons are usually very incomplete. Many dinosaur fossils（化石） are discovered badly damaged. Bones are often found crashed (压碎) or bent by the great weight of the dirt and rock above. Sometimes parts from different creatures are mixed together. This just adds to the confusion.
Unfortunately, some scientists have not been careful enough in their descriptions of dinosaurs. They have told grand stories of how dinosaurs looked and behaved. All of these descriptions are based on guesswork – the imaginations of people who have never seen a living dinosaur. Some scientists have made complete pictures of dinosaurs based on just a single bone or tooth or leg. Such pictures are based on many guesses and very little facts. The scientists' ideas often turn out to be wrong when more facts are discovered.
Dinosaur fossils are not found with labels attached showing what the animals looked like. That is why no pictures of dinosaurs are exactly right. Every dinosaur painting is sure to contain at least some wrong information. No artist in the twentieth century ever saw the living, breathing animals -- complete with skin, flesh, and color.
For instance, imagine never having seen or heard of a peacock. One day you find the jumbled bones of it buffed in the ground. You try to put the bones together to form a skeleton. And then you try to draw a picture of what the animal looked like when it was alive. But bones cannot tell the whole story. Even if you are a very good artist, it would be a miracle if you drew a tree picture of a peacock just from the bones and your imagination.
1.Which of the following is NOT a reason why putting a dinosaur skeleton together is difficult?
A.No one has seen a living dinosaur.
B.Dinosaur bones are too complicated when found.

A.the descriptions of dinosaurs contain some wrong information
B.some scientists are very careful in their descriptions of dinosaurs
C.some scientists have made complete pictures of dinosaurs based on facts

3.Taking a peacock as an example, the author shows that________
A.it is easy to put the peacock bones together to form a skeleton
B.it is not easy to put the peacock bones together to form a skeleton
C.a very good artist can draw a good picture even if he has never seen a peacock
D.it is impossible to draw a correct picture based on the bones and one's imagination
4.What is the passage mainly about?
A.Why it is difficult for scientists to find dinosaur fossils.
B.How we can get right information about dinosaurs.
C.Why scientists can't give exact description of dinosaurs.
D.How we can put a dinosaur skeleton together.
The United States Department of Agriculture has a programme called Wildlife Services. Its job is to help protect agriculture and other resources from threats and damage by wildlife. Often that means helping farmers deal with unwelcome visitors. This organization has experts from different fields and it has set up thousands of inquiry agencies all over the country where farmers can explain their difficulty and get practical help.
One example from Wildlife Services of its work involved a farmer in Washington State, in the Pacific Northwest. Several years ago, thousands of Canada geese landed on his fields. The geese began to eat his carrot crop. Biologists from the programme suggested that the farmer use noise-making devices and other measures to scare the large birds away, These efforts apparently succeeded, which made the farmer quite happy.
Wildlife Services also has a livestock（牲畜）protection programme. The programme just offers suggestions to keep those unwelcome visitors away instead of killing them. Experts suggest providing secure shelter for chickens, sheep and other animals that could be attacked. They also suggest using lights above places where animals are kept. And they advise people who see coyotes around their property to chase them away by shouting, making loud noises or throwing rocks. For home gardeners. a two-metre fence might help keep out deer. To keep out rabbits, a wire fence has to be only about a half-metre high. It should extend fifteen centimetres underground to keep rabbits from digging under it. If snakes are a problem, remove dead trees and cut high grass to destroy their hiding places. And to protect livestock, consider using guard animals such as dogs and donkeys, which are very effective. Due to its effective work, ever since the Wildlife Services was started, it has been well received by farmers all over the States and neighbouring countries such as Canada and Mexico.

D.the farmers like to eat Canada geese very much
3.What is mainly discussed in the last paragraph?
