Tigers, the largest of the world's cats, are the heart and soul of Asia's jungles, grasslands, and deserts. They're so adaptable that they even thrive in the frigid Himalayan foothills—and they are the dominant predator, literally the kings and queens, of every ecosystem they inhabit. But Asia's exploding human population is eating away their forest home, and both tigers and their prey have been caught in the crosshairs(瞄准器), killed in vast numbers by hunters and more recently, by poachers. In just 100 years' time, we humans have engineered their grand-scale death. A century ago, more than 100, 000 tigers roamed across 30 nations, from Turkey to Siberia, throughout Southeast Asia down to the tip of Indonesia. Today, they hang on in just 12 countries; though they're the national animal of six nations, they've vanished from two of them, North and South Korea. They've disappeared from 93 percent of their former range; just 42 breeding populations remain, scattered across the continent. Half of all our wild tigers live in India. Recently, the Smithsonian Conservation Biology Institute analyzed the genetic vigor of tigers in a string of reserves across central India, where I just spent three weeks. One of them, Pench Tiger Reserve, is a 100-square-mile(257-square-kilometer)patch that looks like an illustration from The Jungle Book: groves of towering bamboo, big-leafed teak trees and "strangler fig" banyans filled with acrobatic langur monkeys. But Pench is essentially a leafy island. It's hard to believe that a century ago, this was mostly unbroken forest. Today it, (like many parks, especially in India)is being squeezed by an encroaching, crowded sea of humanity. These parks are bordered by a patchwork of rice paddies, crop fields, bordering on villages, cities, and all sorts of development. The surrounding land is segmented by roads, railways, scarred by massive mines and other barriers that render it dangerous and virtually impassable for these wide-ranging predators. Researchers found that in Pench and other reserves that lacked corridors connecting them to other forests, tigers were far more inbred. Those cats had 47 to 70 percent less gene flow, and as we know from the medical history of European royalty, inbreeding(近亲繁育)does not create the healthiest bloodlines. Tigers have lived in these lands for thousands of years; like all modern cats, they originated in Southeast Asia. The great roaring cats, Panthera were the first to branch off the cat family tree 10. 8 million years ago. It's a group that includes tigers, lions, leopards, jaguars and snow leopards.

(1)I started for school very late that morning and was in great dread of a scolding, especially because Mr. Hamel had said that he would question us on participles, and I did not know the first word about them For a moment I thought of running away and spending the day out of doors. It was so warm, so bright! The birds were chirping at the edge of the woods: and in the open field back of the sawmill, the Prussian soldiers were drilling. It was all much more tempting than the rule for participles, but I had the strength to resist, and hurried off to school. (2)When I passed the town hall there was a crowd in front of the bulletin-board. For the last two years all our bad news had come from there—the lost battles, the draft, the orders of the commanding officer—and I thought to myself, without stopping: "What can be the matter now?" (3)Then, as I hurried by as fast as I could go, the blacksmith, Wachter, who was there, with his apprentice, reading the bulletin, called after me: "Don't go so fast, boy: you'll get to your school in plenty of time! " (4)I thought he was making fun of me, and reached Mr. Hamel's little garden all out of breath. (5)Usually, when school began, there was a great bustle, which could be heard out in the street, the opening and closing of desks, lessons repeated in unison, very loud, with our hands over our ears to understand better, and the teacher's great ruler rapping on the table. But now it was all so still! I had counted on the commotion to get to my desk without being seen: but, of course, that day everything had to be as quiet as Sunday morning. Through the window I saw my classmates, already in their places, and Mr. Hamel walking up and down with his terrible iron ruler under his arm. I had to open the door and go in before everybody. You can imagine how I blushed and how frightened I was. (6)But nothing happened. Mr. Hamel saw me and said very kindly: "Go to your place quickly, little Franz. We were beginning without you." (7)I jumped over the bench and sat down at my desk. Not till then, when I had got a little over my fright, did I see that our teacher had on his beautiful green coat, his frilled shirt, and the little black silk cap, all embroidered, that he never wore except on inspection and prize days. Besides, the whole school seemed so strange and solemn. But the thing that surprised me most was to see, on the back benches that were always empty, the village people sitting quietly like ourselves: old Hauser, with his three-cornered hat, the former mayor, the former postmaster, and several others besides. Everybody looked sad: and Hauser had brought an old primer, torn at the edges, and he held it open on his knees with his great spectacles lying across the pages. (8)While I was wondering about it all, Mr. Hamel mounted his chair, and, in the same grave and gentle tone which he had used to me, said: "My children, this is the last lesson I shall give you. The order has come from Berlin to teach only German in the schools of Alsace and Lorraine. The new master comes tomorrow. This is your last French lesson. I want you to be very attentive."
