The Raptor Center

猛禽中心

This is such a lovely day a woman was with her neighbors They were having a party on the roof of their apartment building a Man smiled. I'm glad we got rid of that smelly hoxnest Another neighbor grinned our building is much nicer now

天气可真好，一位女士正和邻居们待在一起 他们正在公寓楼的屋顶举办派对 一名男子笑着说："真高兴我们把那个臭烘烘的鸟窝清理掉了" 另一个邻居咧嘴笑道："咱们楼现在可舒服多啦"

Key, key! A winged figure swooped down from the sky. Shhh! Ahh! The woman screamed. Cool! Jack said. Vultures! Roxy and her friends were at the Metro City Raptor Center. The center had lots of raptors in large cages.

呀！呀！ 一个长着翅膀的身影从天上猛扑下来。 嘘！ 啊！ 那位女士尖叫起来。 太酷啦！ 杰克说道。 是秃鹫！ 罗克西和她的朋友们正在大都会市猛禽中心。 中心的大笼子里养了好多猛禽。

A woman walked over. She wore a name tag that read Robin. Those are turkey vultures, Robin said. Vultures are a type of raptor. Raptors are birds that hunt other animals. Why are they here? Mara asked. Those vultures got injured, Robin said.

一位女士走了过来，她戴着写有"罗宾"的名牌。 那些是红头美洲鹫，罗宾说道。 秃鹫是猛禽的一种，猛禽是会捕猎其他动物的鸟类。 它们为什么会在这里呀？玛拉问道。 这些秃鹫受伤了，罗宾说道。

We helped them get better. Soon we'll release them back into the wild. Robin led everyone to another large cage. This is Perry. He's a Peregrine Falcon. Perry's wing is broken. We think he got hit by a car. That's awful, Jack said. The person driving the car didn't even stop. Robin's eyes flashed with anger.

我们帮它们疗伤恢复，很快就会把它们放归野外。 罗宾领着大家走到另一个大笼子旁边。 这是佩里，它是一只游隼，佩里的翅膀断了，我们觉得它是被车撞的。 太可怕了，杰克说道。 肇事的司机当时根本就没停车。 罗宾的眼里闪过愤怒的光芒。

People need to be nicer to birds, especially raptors. Raptors are great hunters with amazing eyesight. Vultures even help the environment by cleaning up dead animals. There's a bird's nest outside my window, Tyrell said. I love looking at the baby birds.

大家要对鸟类更好一点，尤其是猛禽。 猛禽是很棒的猎手，有着超强的视力。 秃鹫还会清理动物尸体，为保护环境出一份力呢。 我家窗户外就有一个鸟窝，泰瑞尔说道。 我可喜欢看那些幼鸟了。
