You, your friends and teachers, your grandparents have never seen a dodo. The last of these large birds that couldn't fly died many years ago and now it is extinct. We even say "as dead as a dodo", which means "finished". Your great-grandparents may just have seen a passenger pigeon: the last one died in 1914. A lot more endangered species — fish, reptiles, insects, birds, mammals — may disappear before you have children. The reason is Man that kills animals and destroys their habitats.
It is not just animals that are in danger, so are plants. The world had over nine million sq. km. of forests and this is a lot of trees, also a lot of different species of trees but they are disappearing fast becouse every day we use paper and cardboard, both made from wood, we also use different kinds of wood in furniture and in other ways. Every year over 100 000 sq. km. of forests are cleared for different uses, and a lot of forests are so badly damaged that they will hardly be able to recover. If we go on like this, by the time you are as old as your grandparents are now all the forests on earth like rainforests in South America, Africa and Asia can be destroyed. The huge forests help to control the world's weather, and to produce much of the oxygen in the air. There are many illnesses which we still cannot cure like cancer2 and AIDS. It may be that the medicines we need will be discovered in wild plants in savannas, deserts or rainforests and if we destroy these places, we will never find the cure.
So you see, that it is not just children who need a healthy space to live and grow and if we want our lives to be healthy and interesting, a lot of other creatures and plants need growing space too.

Каждый из нас хоть раз обращался к словарю, чтобы получить перевод слова или фразы. А задумывались ли вы о том, как и когда он появился? Вот несколько интересных фактов из истории английских словарей от создателей ABBYY Lingvo.

«Прадедами» словарей были глоссарии — списки, в которых приводились объяснения иностранных и необычных слов. Составлялись они чаще переписчиками и учеными: нашел значение незнакомого слова и записал его между строк — эта пометка и получила название «glossa» (греч. «язык», «слово»). Затем все глоссы выписывались на отдельный листок и многократно копировались вручную. ²Первый двуязычный словарь был напечатан в 1480 году. Это было французско-английское пособие для путешественников, в котором слова и выражения располагались в параллельных колонках на 26 листах.
