France stated that they would ban (禁止)wild animal performances. A spokesman said, “The new rule will influence many circuses(马戏团)and zoos.
Ifwild animals are kept by humans for a long time, they will have health problems. For ocean animals, the swimming pools are too small for them to swim as much as they need This causes them to have serious psychological problems(心理问题).Even the best zoo in the world can't really let wild animals live a natural life. They should have lived freely.
In fact, about 20 European countries have already banned wild animal performances. As the number of wild animals decreases, more and more people have paid attention to the importance of wildlife protection. Many environmental protection organizations are also calling on people to join in the protection of wild animals. The animal rights protection organization stated, “At present, many wild animals are kept and used to make money. We will set them free and provide them with a good living environment.”
The head of the French animal show organization, William worries that the circus workers will lose their jobs. And it is not good for the development of society. So the state will offer more than 8 million euros to help circuses change into new business models. In this way, unemployment will be under control.
In any case, wild animals shouldn’t be kept by humans. They belong to nature, and they are also members of the earth. And it is meaningful that people can live in peace with animals.

As middle school students, we should help build a green city. We can avoid the traffic jams and reduce air pollution by riding bikes or walking. We mustn’t throw rubbish or spit anywhere. In this way, we can keep our city clean and tidy so that we can live a comfortable life. And more trees should be planted to protect the environment and make our city beautiful.
In our daily lives, we can pick up rubbish and put it into the bin wherever we go. We can also save energy by turning off the lights when leaving the room. In a word, everyone can play a part in building a green city.
