六、阅读与回答问题
(2023·上海一模改编)Galante is a wildlife biologist studying animals that are nearly dying out. A reporter Daniels spoke with him about his job. Read part of their conversation below.
Daniels：How old were you when you knew you wanted to be a biologist?
Galante：For as long as I can remember,I knew I wanted to work with animals,or study animals,or just have anything to do with animals. But it wasn't really until after graduating(毕业)from college with a biology degree that I was like "Oh,okay,I'm actually a biologist now".
Daniels：You're able to travel all around the world. What are some of your favourite places that you have been to over the years?
Galante：I'm very lucky with all the places I've got to go. Africa is always closest to my heart. You see elephants and lions and all these big animals. But my favourite place I've ever been to is Palau(帕劳群岛). I was amazed by the underwater scene there.
Daniels：What's the best and most rewarding part of your job?
Galante：The best and most rewarding part of my job is what we're doing right now. It's inspiring(激励)young people to care so much about wildlife. To tell you the truth,I love to travel and work with animals. But all of that can't be compared to the most exciting and rewarding moment when I get an email from somebody like you. I'm so happy to hear "I want to do that when I grow up". And so that's what makes it all worth it：inspiring the next generation(一代)of young people to protect our environment.
