qwelly [4]
I guess this also depends on what the "Advanced Reading Skills" lessons talks about, but don't think of it as "really hard"! Work on one word, one phrase, one sentence, and you'll start making progress. =) 

In general, when translating, the first thing you'll have to do is to understand the paragraph, but you're right, this isn't that easy a paragraph to translate. You could use an English dictionary, or a bilingual dictionary (http://www.nciku.com<span>is good for English-Chinese) to help you. While you're doing this, try to pick out important words and translate them first, and see if you could understand what each sentence means. </span>

<span>Sometimes, words may have multiple meanings or be used as metaphors - for example, "amputated" means "having been cut off", but in your 2nd sentence, it means that the poet should not be condemned and criticised to the point where he is treated as having no value. </span>

<span>Finally, after you've translated the text, don't forget to read it to check if it makes sense in the language you're using - and if it makes for smooth reading!</span>

xXMonkey explains your answer!

Explanation:

The reason the passenger pigeon went extinct is because of the mass hunting that went on. The reason they were hunted was for their meat, which exploded in the market. Soon, their numbers started dwindling, and they were quickly approaching their demise.

Before long, the passenger pigeon was gone. The extinction of this species sent a ripple through the world. In a simple explanation, no more pigeons, no more pigeon meat. This was kind of the first step to conservation. The passenger pigeon, in a way, gave itself up for conservation and the protection of the other species. Thank you for reading.

Hope this helps. -xXMonkey
