Basel Zoo, which lies in Basel, Switzerland, is a non-profit zoo that first opened up in 1874, making it one of the world's oldest. Rated as one of the top zoos in the world by Forbes Traveler, Basel Zoo is an awe-inspiring sight to see. There are presently over 6,000 unique animals housed there. Basel Zoo has also bred (繁殖) several endangered animals, making it one of the most animal-friendly zoos, too.
National Zoological Gardens of South Africa
As the largest zoo in South Africa, there isn't much you won't see at this amazing habitat for animals. While many of the animals have been bred and raised in the zoo, there is enough room in this vast park for the animals to run freely. Here you'll find African animals and the third largest collection of fantastic trees in South Africa. If you're looking for an adventure-packed day, with its magnificent animals in a cruelty-free environment, a trip to Pretoria, it may be your best bet.

阅读理解C (原创) 体裁：说明文 话题：科普知识与现代技术 难度：★★★☆☆
The moon provided a rare triple treat on January 31, when much of the world admired not only a blue moon and a visible supermoon, but also a total lunar eclipse (月食). Having all three events taking place at the same time is extremely unusual. Such celestial (天体的) coincidence hasn't happened in more than 150 years.(连词not only ... but also 以及and的使用，提示这次天文现象是三种现象的重合，结合three可猜测出第1题画线词含义)
It's the first lunar eclipse since September of 2015. A total lunar eclipse happens when the earth comes between the sun and a full moon. The earth blocks the sun's light, making the moon appear dark in the sky.(解释特殊点之一，并解释月全食发生的成因)
Being the final one in a supermoon trilogy—the first two of which appeared on December 3, 2017 and January 1, 2018, it also won the title of a blue moon. A blue moon is a second full moon in one month. It is rare enough that English speakers use the expression “once in a blue moon” to describe something that does not happen often! (该段介绍特殊点之二，并解释“blue moon”之意)
A supermoon is a full moon. It appears brighter and bigger than average because the moon is at its closest orbital point to the earth. The eclipsed moon appeared about 6% bigger than an average moon when it moved into the earth's shadow. In the total lunar eclipse, the earth covered the moon's surface with its shadow, giving it a red-like colour. For that reason, it is also known as a “blood moon魔兽3地图>抵押房屋贷款利率”．(该段介绍特殊点之三，并解释血月亮的颜之因)
