56、o be a common sight in British forests and countryside. But there are fewer than 140,000 red squirrels left now and most of them are in Scotland. However, grey squirrels (introduced from North America) are now so common that many people dislike them. They can be legally（合法的）trapped and destroyed. On
57、 first sight, the two types of squirrel are similar.

Another reason for the grey squirrels success is its ability to use food provided by people. Like the fox, the
61、 grey squirrel can survive in towns and cities. The other problem for the red squirrel is disease. Both squirrels carry a certain virus. While this doesnt seem to attack grey squirrels, it is fatal to red squirrels. 84. Which are introduced from North America, red squirrels or grey squirrels?85. Wha
