7 Freeze!
Jack and Annie jumped out of the canoe.
The rain was starting to fall harder.
The monkey took off. He swung from tree to tree， heading up the river bank.
He screeched and beckoned to Jack and Annie.
“He wants us to follow him!” said Annie.
“No! We have to find the special thing. Then go home!” said Jack.
“He wants to help us!” said Annie. She took off after the monkey.
The two of them vanished into the rain forest.
“Annie!”
Thunder shook the sky.
“Oh， brother，” said Jack.
He dashed after Annie and the monkey. Into the dark forest.
The forest seemed surprisingly dry.
Jack looked up. It was still raining. But the treetops acted like a huge umbrella.
“Annie?” called Jack.
“Jack! Jack!” cried Annie.
“Where are you?”
“Here!”
Jack hurried in the direction of Annie’s voice.
Soon he found the monkey. He was screeching and swinging from a tree.
Annie was kneeling on the forest floor. She was playing with an animal that looked like a giant kitten.
“What’s that?” Jack said.
“I don’t know， but I love it!” said Annie.
Annie batted the animal’s paws. It had gold fur and black spots.
“I’d better find out what it is，” said Jack. He pulled out the rain forest book and flipped through it.
“Oh， it’s so cute，” said Annie.
Jack found a picture of an animal with gold fur and black spots. He read：
The jaguar is the biggest predatorm in the western hemisphere.
“Forget cute，”Jack said.“That must be a baby jaguar. It’s going to grow up and be the biggest predator in—”
“What’s a predator?” asked Annie.
GRRR! There was a terrible growl.
Jack whirled around.
The mother jaguar was coming out from behind a tree. She was creeping over the dead leaves—right toward Annie.
“Freeze!” whispered Jack.
Annie froze. But the jaguar kept moving slowly toward her.
“Help，” said Jack weakly.
Suddenly the monkey swooped down from his tree. He grabbed the jaguar’
s tail!
The cat roared and spun around.
Annie jumped up.
The monkey pulled the jaguar’s tail again. Then he let go and took off.
The jaguar sprang after him.
“Run， Annie!” cried Jack.
Jack and Annie took off through the rain forest. They ran for their lives!
7别动！
杰克和安妮跳出了独木舟，雨下得越来越大了。猴子跑出来，它在树与树之间不停地跳跃，朝着岸边来了，它喊叫着朝杰克和安妮招手。
“它要我们跟着它！”安妮说。
“不行。我们必须去找那个特别的东西，然后回家！”杰克说。
“它想要帮助我们！”安妮说，她跟着猴子往前走去，消失在雨林中了。
“安妮！”
雷声震天响。
“噢！真是的！”杰克说。他只好循着安妮和那只猴子冲进了阴暗的雨林。
雨林看上去出人意料的干。杰克抬头看了看，此时仍然在下雨，可是厚密的树梢就像一把巨大的雨伞挡住了雨水。
“安妮？”杰克叫道。
“杰克！杰克！”安妮喊道。
“你在哪儿？”
“这儿！”
杰克赶紧朝着安妮声音的方向跑去，不久就看到了那只猴子，它正叫着在一棵树上摇摆，而安妮正跪在地上，和一只看上去像大号的小猫咪一样的动物玩耍呢。
“那是什么？”杰克说。
“我不知道，但是我喜欢它!”安妮说。
安妮拍了拍小动物的爪子，它有着金色的皮毛和黑色的斑点。
“我最好看看这是什么动物。”杰克说。他拿出热带雨林的书，在里面翻找着。
“噢！它太可爱了。”安妮说。
杰克找到了一张长着金色皮毛和黑色斑点的动物的图片，他读道：
美洲豹是西半球体形最大的食肉动物。
“别觉得可爱了！”杰克说，“那肯定是一只小美洲豹，不久就会长大变成这里最厉害的掠食者。”
“什么是掠食者？”安妮问道。
就在这时，传来一声可怕的吼叫声，杰克一转身，一只母美洲豹正从一棵树后面出来，它正在落叶上蹑手蹑脚地爬着，朝着安妮过来了！
“别动！”杰克小声说。
安妮不敢动了，可是那只母美洲豹仍然在缓缓地朝着她移动。
“救命。”杰克小声说。
突然，那只猴子突然从一棵树上飞扑下来抓住了美洲豹的尾巴！母豹咆哮着转了个圈。
安妮一跃跳了起来。猴子又拉住了美洲豹的尾巴，然后放手跑开了，母豹一跃而起追赶那只猴子去了。
“快跑安妮！”杰克喊道。
杰克和安妮在雨林里拔腿狂奔，他们这可是在逃命哪！
