校园园艺课：不止好玩，更是超实用的生活技能 （2025天水期中） Now school gardening is very cool. Parents and teachers like these hands-on（实践的） lessons.
The students like the lessons too because they can help them relax. They don’t have to sit at their desks in the classroom all day. They can get out and it’s good for their eyes. Also， the gardening lessons can teach them something that they cannot learn in the classroom. The gardening lessons can make them helpful and friendly， too.
Teachers teach gardening with a goal. In gardens， teachers ask all the students to watch carefully. The students can see how the flowers grow. They can see the beginning， the middle and the end of their project. But some schools don’t have much room for a garden. Then some students can go to parks.
“Gardening is an important subject，” a lot of teachers say，“It lets students know where our food comes from， and makes them have their duty for their home. Gardening is not only a hobby， but also a life skill. ”

保护野生动物＝保护地球家园 Wild animals are our friends， but many are in danger now.
In the forest， there are wolves， eagles and giraffes. However， people cut down too many trees， so the forest is getting smaller. Some hunters（捕猎者） kill animals for their fur or ivory（象牙）. For example， elephants are in danger because their tusks are targeted for ivory. Sharks and whales also face danger in the oceans.
We should take care of these animals. First， we can save their homes by not cutting down forests. Second， we must follow rules to stop people from killing them. Many friendly groups are trying to protect these animals. They look after injured（受伤的） animals and teach people about animal culture.
We should all understand that protecting wild animals is protecting our world. Let’s work together to make their lives better！

校园园艺课：不止好玩，更是超实用的生活技能 （2025天水期中） Now school gardening is very cool. Parents and teachers like these hands-on（实践的） lessons.
The students like the lessons too because they can help them relax. They don’t have to sit at their desks in the classroom all day. They can get out and it’s good for their eyes. Also， the gardening lessons can teach them something that they cannot learn in the classroom. The gardening lessons can make them helpful and friendly， too.
Teachers teach gardening with a goal. In gardens， teachers ask all the students to watch carefully. The students can see how the flowers grow. They can see the beginning， the middle and the end of their project. But some schools don’t have much room for a garden. Then some students can go to parks.
“Gardening is an important subject，” a lot of teachers say，“It lets students know where our food comes from， and makes them have their duty for their home. Gardening is not only a hobby， but also a life skill. ”

保护野生动物＝保护地球家园 Wild animals are our friends， but many are in danger now.
In the forest， there are wolves， eagles and giraffes. However， people cut down too many trees， so the forest is getting smaller. Some hunters（捕猎者） kill animals for their fur or ivory（象牙）. For example， elephants are in danger because their tusks are targeted for ivory. Sharks and whales also face danger in the oceans.
We should take care of these animals. First， we can save their homes by not cutting down forests. Second， we must follow rules to stop people from killing them. Many friendly groups are trying to protect these animals. They look after injured（受伤的） animals and teach people about animal culture.
We should all understand that protecting wild animals is protecting our world. Let’s work together to make their lives better！

从表演明星到濒危动物：海豚的生存报告 Do you like dolphins？ The dolphin is my favourite animal. It has a long body and lives in the sea. Dolphins are one of the friendliest animals in the world. Dolphins never attack people. Sometimes they save people in danger. What’s more， people teach them to perform（表演） in the shows. They are very smart， so they can perform well and make people happy.
Unluckily， the number of many animals like dolphins is becoming smaller and smaller. Some of them become endangered animals. Why？
First of all， people cut down trees for buildings. It makes some animals lose their homes. Second， farmers use too much pesticide（农药）. Third， some people kill them for money.
I think we shouldn’t cut down trees. We should ▲ more trees to save the animals’ homes. And we should set up some reserves（自然保护区） to protect them. I believe we will get on well with animals if we do more things for them.

The earth is home to both humans and animals. But today wild animals are facing serious problems because of humans.
People often cut down trees for money.What’s worse， people kill animals for their fur or bones. So many wild animals are in danger.
It’s time for us to save the earth and the wild animals. If we take action to protect our earth and wild animals right away， our earth will become a more comfortable place for us to live in and wild animals can live safely and happily.
First， as students， we can try to be volunteers. What’s more， we shouldn’t buy things made of animals’ fur or bones. Last but not least， we should make more people understand the importance of protecting the earth and the wild animals.
Let’s act together to make a more beautiful home for us humans and wild animals as well.
