When she was little, Gladys Kalema liked to play the piano. One day when she was at her piano, a monkey climbed up to join her. (1)B It also planted the seeds of a dream in her mind. The girl wanted to work with animals when she grew up.
This dream came true when Kalema was in her early twenties. She became a wildlife vet(兽医) in Africa.
(2)E Since then, Kalema has never stopped caring for wild animals. She does her best to save the mountain gorilla(山地猩猩). This animal is in great danger. But she doesn't just protect the individual(单个的) animals. She puts her focus on helping the local communities.
(3)A Some of them made money by hunting wild animals. Kalema wanted to protect these animals from bullets(子弹). The key to doing so, she realized, was to improve the local people's quality of life. The woman provided these people with fast-growing crops. By growing the crops, the locals could feed themselves and make a living. They no longer needed to go hunting. Slowly, their attitude towards these wild animals began to change. (4)C So we can save animals by saving people.
