LESSON 7 Global Refugee Crisis
p. 75 本文音声

SECTION 4
 This story highlights the refugees’ plight,/their courage,/and the united efforts of many helpers.//
 In 2015,/a family left Iraq with their cat Kunkush/to escape from Islamic State forces.// They walked to reach a refugee smuggler/and left Turkey on a small boat/licensed to carry 25 passengers,/but actually carrying 60 people/to Lesbos Island in Greece.//
 Kunkush’s 4,000 kilometer adventure began/when he leapt out of his basket on Lesbos.// Refugee supporters worked hard/to find his family,/using flyers and the Internet.// Four months later,/Kunkush and his family were reunited in Norway.// Kunkush was not just a pet,/but a symbol of life/and hope for refugees.//
 The refugee crisis is not someone else’s business/but everyone’s.// Thank you.//
