One possible version
My favorite animal is a tiger in the city zoo. He is from China. I don’t know how old he is. I don’t know his name, either. But I call him Super Tiger.
He is orange, black and white. He is very big, and he looks kind of scary. He can run fast and jump far. People and other animals are afraid of him. He sleeps in the daytime and walks around at night. I like him very much, so I often go to see him on weekends, and I have a photo of him on my bedroom wall.
My Super Tiger is smart and strong, but I learn that tigers are animals in danger. So we should save them. I hope my Super Tiger lives happily!
