Animals are people’s friends. But many wild animals are endangered because the environment that they are living in has changed greatly. For example, their living area has become smaller and smaller because of the development of cities. They have no place to live in except zoos. And many of the wild animals now can’t find enough food to eat. At the same time, man is killing animals just for their fur, teeth and meat.
People should realize how serious the situation is and something should be done to save the animals. We are supposed to set up some natural places so that animals can live freely. Besides, people should not be allowed to kill the endangered animals or eat their meat. We should do something to make our world cleaner.

What’s more, my parents and my brother often go to work by bike. If it rains, they’ll take the bus. We’re also going to grow our own vegetables, raise cows, keep hens and ducks. Soon, we’ll be able to have eggs and milk for meals.

To Be a Good Traveler
The summer holiday is coming. To make everyone have a good trip, I want to talk about how to be a good traveler.
First, you should ride your bike to travel as much as possible. It’s good for the environment. Second, it’s not good to write or draw on any things in the sights. And it’s impolite to drop litter in public places. Third, please protect the environment. You shouldn’t pick up the flowers or walk on the grass. Fourth, you should take part in volunteer activities. What’s more, don’t waste food. You’d better eat up the food you order.
If you follow the tips above, you can become a good traveler.
