In fact, Indonesia is sometimes called the “lungs of the earth” because the plant life of the vast rainforests “breathe in” polluted air and “breathe out” oxygen. The Indonesia government understands the vital role that the rainforests play. It is working with international organizations to protect the local ecosystem, which provides a home for many species of animals and plants. More than 500 of the species are protected by law, and some of these rare species are found nowhere else on the earth.Part B Role Play1. Now please listen to the speaker.W: Hey, Li Hua.

Unbelievably, the plane’s only passengers, a young woman and her two baby daughters, were unhurt. It was the middle of winter, and the ground was covered in thick snow. The woman knew that the nearest village was miles away, so there would be no rescue until the next morning. When it grew dark, she turned a suitcase into a bed and put the children inside, covering them with all the clothes she could find to keep them warm. During the night, it got terribly cold. The woman kept as near as she could to the children and even tried to get into the suitcase herself, but it was too small. Early next morning, she heard planes passing overhead and wondered how she could send a signal. Then she had an idea. Using her feet, she stamped out the letters “SOS” in the snow. Thankfully, a pilot saw the signal and sent a message by radio to the nearest town. Soon after, a helicopter arrived on the scene to rescue the mother and her children.复述参考要点：1. 飞机坠毁，飞行员遇难。
