Firstly, I think we must stop killing the rare birds and animals, especially the young ones.
Secondly, we have to protect the environment, to make the sky blue, to make the grass green, to give the animals a comfortable space to live. it's not only for the animals but also ourselves.
Finally, we should tell more and more people why and how to protect the animals, make everyone do this.
Work in groups and discuss some ways we can protect animals. Write down your ideas.
1. At the beginning of the 20th century, the number of
tigers in the wild was around 100 000.
a number of…意思是“一些，若干”（= some），后接可数名词复数或代词，谓语动词用复数形式。还可以加入形容词表示数量大或小等（例如：a large/small number of…许多/少数……）。
例： There are a large number of monkeys in the zoo .
动物园里有很多猴子。
Language points
the number of…意思是“……的数字/数目”，介词of同其后名词构成介词短语，修饰the number.当它作主语时，谓语动词用单数 。例：
The number of students is about twenty.
学生的数目大约二十。 Many people took part in 10,000-metre race, but only a number of them kept on running to the end .
很多人参加了1万米赛跑，但是他们中只有一些人跑到了最后。
2. But today that number has dropped to a few
thousand.
a few thousand表示“几千”。当hundred, thousand前面是基数词one, two, three…a few, many时，其后不加s。当hundred和thousand后面加s时，需要跟of修饰可数名词复数。例：
There are three thousand students in our school.
我们学校有三千名学生。
Thousands of students are on the square.
成千上万的学生在广场上。
3. For this reason, tigers are important to the environment.
be important to sb./sth.
……对……来说是重要的。
be important for sb./sth.
对于……来说做……是重要的。
例:
Time is important to me.时间对我来说很重要。
It is important for you to get there early.
早点到那儿对你来说很重要。
4. In recent years, tigers have been in danger of disappearing.
in danger (of)意为“处于（……）危险之中”。例：
You’re in danger of catching a cold.你处于得感冒的危险中。
The sick man is in danger of death.
这个病人有死亡的危险。
5. As forests disappear, tigers lose their homes.
as在句中作连词，引导状语从句，意为“随着，当……的时候”。
As the sun rose, the fog disappeared.
随着太阳升起，雾消失了。
As she left the room, she remembered that book.
当她离开教室的时候，她想起了那本书。

这是一个倒装句。在英语中以here或there开头的句子

则谓语动词仍位于主语之后。
例：There he is! 他在那儿！

（广播）；收音机上”。
例：Today, I heard another Michael Jackson
song on the radio.
今天，我在广播中听到一首迈克杰克逊的歌。
