Saving tigers
The tiger is one of the animals in danger. Now there are only about 4,000 tigers in the world. And the number is becoming smaller and smaller. Why Because villages and farms are growing bigger and bigger and are taking away their land and forests. As a result, they have no place to live. When people cut down trees, tigers have no place to look for food. Some people even kill tigers for their meat and fur. We could not live without animals around us. So protecting them is very important. In order to protect tigers, we must build more nature reserves. And we must stop people from killing tigers and cutting down trees.

小试身手
One possible version:
Cheetahs run the fastest of all the animals on land. They have brown and yellow fur and mainly live on the African grassland. They feed on zebras, goats and other animals.
These days, the number of cheetahs is getting smaller and smaller because they don’t have enough food to eat or enough room to live in. Besides, people kill them for their fur. Now the cheetah is an animal in danger.
So what can we do to protect them First, it’s a good idea to build more nature parks for them. Second, we should stop cutting down trees and killing other animals so that they can have enough room to live in and enough food to eat. Finally, we should stop selling their fur.
