To stamp out bush meat, teach kids first.
"The meat of masked civets can be eaten and has long been considered a rare precious meat from the mountain," says a science book for kids.
But following the outbreak of the novel coronavirus, which has been linked to the consumption of bush meat, a reader complained online that the description was improper.
The action is welcomed, as some research shows the virus came from dead bats, while others suspect it might have been transmitted from bats to pangolins (穿山甲) and from them to humans. Whichever animal was the host, researchers are in agreement that bush meat is not safe for consumption.
The law prohibits consumption of protected species, but those not on the protected list become sitting ducks for those who love eating wild animals. Without a law in place, one cannot stop restaurants from serving wild animal meat.
The first step toward legislation prohibiting bush meat is to build consensus. Only when everyone realizes the dangers of eating bush meat will they give up the habit and push for legislation.
Teaching children from a young age not to consume wild animals will make it easier to ensure they refrain from doing so when they grow up.
The science book has been withdrawn from shops. And it is hoped that other press houses across the country browse through their published books and make similar corrections.
A. Kids are so crazy.
B. Education is essential.
C. Improving our diets can benefit a lot.
D. The awareness should begin early.
E. However a public outcry alone cannot help.
F. The press withdrew the book from all shops.
G. Striking out consumption of bush meat in children's reading material is a good way to begin.

There are several different types of fire departments.

Joining a fire department requires that both physical and written tests are passed with scores showing a thorough knowledge of fire safety. {#blank#}2{#/blank#}.
The first step in joining a fire department as a paid firefighter is to submit an application as well as acquire the appropriate training.

Once a candidate applies and is accepted for training at a fire department, he must then complete several weeks of training at the department's training center. {#blank#}4{#/blank#}. When this is done, the candidate is sent to a fire company for a period of probation (实习). He has to continue training in the new position while being directed by experienced firefighters. {#blank#}5{#/blank#}. An application must be submitted to the volunteer fire department, then if the application is accepted, the candidate will take a training program and then be required to pass a physical and written test.
