空氣很稀薄，我們不得不在離開營地的短途徒步旅行中休息多次。在我們的左方，白雪皚皚的群山消失在似乎觸手可及的云層中。放眼平原，我們隱約看到一群體形優美的動物。這就是我們來到此地的原因——觀察藏羚羊。

藏羚羊生活在西藏、新疆和青海的平原上。看著它們在綠色的草地上緩慢移動。我被其美麗所震撼，也想到了它們所處的險境。因其珍貴的羊毛，它們正遭受非法獵殺。我的導游扎西是一位來自羌塘的村民。他在羌塘國家自然保護區工作。該保護區是西藏西北部動植物的庇護所。對于扎西來說，這片土地是神圣的，保護野生動植物是一種生活方式。“我們不是在試圖拯救動物。”他說道，“其實我們是在努力拯救自己。”Summary:Part1(Para1-2)disappearinto......Part2(Para3-4)remindsbofsb/sth......ThepresentwonderfulconditionsoftheTibetanantelopes.ThereasonforprotectingtheTibetanantelopes.Test:Theairisthinandwehavetorestseveraltimesontheshorthikefromcamp.Toourleft,snow-coveredmountainsdisappear
