Ⅳ.阅读理解ADr Dian Fossey, one of the world's leading women scientists, had a remarkable career.The work — she devoted her life to protecting and studying the mountain gorillas (大猩猩) of Africa — has proved highly effective and has resulted in the steady (平稳的) increase of this most endangered great apes.Fossey made her first trip to Africa in 1963.Three years later, she returned to Africa to begin a longterm study of the mountain gorillas.She set up camp in the Democratic Republic of Congo but moved to Rwanda because of political reasons in 1967.She established her “Karisoke” Research Centre camp on September 24, 1967.Fossey's aims were to study gorilla ecology (生态学) and social organization.She found that in order to achieve this, she needed to recognize individual gorillas, which required that the gorillas get used to her presence (出现).By copying gorillas, behaviour and sounds, Fossey began to gain their trust, and in 1970 an adult male gorilla she had named “Peanuts” reached out to touch her hand.Close observations over thousands of hours enabled Fossey to gain the gorillas' trust and bring forth new knowledge about their behaviour.Stories and photographs of her work were published in National Geographic Magazine and elsewhere.In 1977, one of Fossey's favorite gorillas, Digit, was killed by poachers and she established the Digit Fund to help raise money for gorilla protection effortsin the same year.On December 26, 1985, Fossey was murdered while going back to her house in Karisoke.Her body was discovered near the research centre.Most probably, Dian Fossey had
