The beautiful bird was once commonly found across North America. By 1941, the whooping crane population had dwindled to the double digits. The tallest species in North America were critically endangered.In the 1940s, the remaining cranes migrate every year from the Gulf Coast of Texas to somewhere in the north of Canada to breed. The conservation community didn't know where the birds went. The wetlands where they used to spend winters were growing rarer and rarer as the tiny, non-migrating group of whooping cranes was alive in Louisiana in 1941, but the group had disappeared by the time Allen started his research.In 1942, Allen undertook the whooping crane project over the next three years, he did almost constant fieldwork that took him from Texas up the cranes' migration route to Nebraska, and on into Saskatchewan in search of the nesting ground of the birds.Studying the bird in its breeding habitat and seeing how many birds were born would allow conservationists to understand how to help the birds on their journey. But finding the whooping cranes' nesting site meant difficult and fruitless air searches over northern Canada.In 1952, Allen wrote a report on the whooping crane. The report was a warning call to the conservation community: only 33 migratory “whoopers” remained, and their nesting site still hadn't been found. Two years later, the whooping cranes breeding grounds in CanadaFlorence Nightingale was born in Florence, Italy, while her wealthy English parents were traveling in Europe. As a child, she traveled to many places with her family and learned how to speak several languages.When Nightingale was 17, she told her family that she was going to help sick people. Her parents did not agree, but Nightingale was determined.She traveled to hospitals all over Europe.She saw that doctors were working too hard. She saw that patients died because they did not get enough care. Nightingale felt that women could be s Wood Buffalo National Park were finally found, and Allen headed north to study them personally, an "incredibly difficult journey,in Sprunt's words, Allen, s work laid the groundwork for conservationists to save the birds.Their efforts paid off as the numbers reached 57 by 1970 and 214 by 2005. Today, the whooping crane is still listed as endangered, but there are roughly 600 birds alive.21. What is the passage mainly about?A. It is a story about Allen's searching for a lost bird.B.

Which is mainly responsible for what happened to the remaining whooping cranes?A. Deadly diseases. B. Habitat loss. C. Natural disaster. D. Illegal hunting.doing more to help doctors take care of sick people.Nightingale knew that in order for nurses to do more, they needed special training in how to take care of sick people. Nightingale went to a hospital in Germany to study nursing. Then she returned to London and became the head of a group of women-called Gentlewomen During Illness. These women cared for sick people in their homes.In 1854, England was fighting a war with Russia. The reporters wrote about the terrible conditions in the hospitals that cared for the wounded. People demanded that something be done about it. A leader of the government asked Florence Nightingale to take some nurses into the war hospitals. So,in November 1854,Nightingale finally got to work in a hospital.She took along 38 nurses whom she had trained herself.At first, the doctors on the battlefields did not want Nightingale and her nurses in their hospitals. They did not believe that women could help.But in fact, the nurses did make a difference. They worked around the clock,looking after the wounded. Thanks to their hard work, many wounded soldiers survived.After the War, Nightingale and her nurses were treated like heroes. Finally, in 1860,she started the Nightingale School for Nurses.In time,thanks to Florence Nightingale, nursing became an important part of medicine.24.
