What do you know about bears
A. Simon wants to write a report on bears for the Wild Animals Club. Read his notes below.

Food
most eat meat and fish, some also eat plants and insects
Abilities
can run very fast, good at climbing and swimming
Qualities
move around slowly in the daytime, sleep through the winter, seldom hurt people
Danger
hunters catch them for their fur and paws
Brain storming
1. There are many wild animals in danger.
Can you tell me what are they
2. Can you describe their looks, food, abilities,
qualities and dangers
Elephants are very big and strong. They are bigger than any other animals on land. They are grey and have long trunks and tusks. They have poor eyesight, but very good hearing and smell.
Looks
Food
Usually they eat young leaves, wild fruits, weeds, bamboo, wild vegetables and other plants. An adult elephant drinks hundreds of litres of water every day and eats hundreds of kilograms of grass.
They can lift heavy things and break down branches with their trunks.
Abilities
Elephants are very friendly towards each other and towards their neighbours. Normally, they live in a group for many years. Young male elephants do not leave the group until they are about 12 years old.
Qualities
Now, there are very few elephants in the world. The number of them is becoming smaller and smaller because their living areas are used for farming. Also, people hunt them for their tusks.

Sample writing
Tibetan antelopes (藏铃羊) are medium-sized animals. They mainly feed on grass.They are usually found in groups of about 20.
They are killed for their wool, which is warm, soft and fine and can be made into expensive clothes. Although people can get the wool without killing the animals, people simply kill them before taking the wool.
The number of them is dropping year by year. There are less than 75,000 Tibetan antelopes left in the world, down from a million 50 years ago. We should take action to stop this at once.
