The koala is small and cute. It spends most of its lifecycle (生命周期) in the trees. It eats, sleeps and nurses (养育) its baby there, and it only comes down to the ground if necessary. The koala is loved by many people for its small size and cartoon-like feature.
A mother gives birth and raises only one baby koala at a time. During the mother’s lifecycle, she will produce up to six baby koalas. A newborn baby koala does not look like an adult because it is born blind with undeveloped features.
After the baby koala is born, it makes its way to the mother’s pouch (育儿袋) and lives inside. Then it develops its eyes, legs and fur. In fact it lives in the mother’s pouch for about six months.
At last the baby koala gets out of its mother’s pouch, and the mother carries her baby on her back.

A national park is an area that is protected by the government of a country. Every country in the world has a number of national parks. National parks are built to protect the natural environment, in which the local plants and animals live and grow. They also protect certain landscapes(风景), which are of special importance for a place or for a country.
由于很多原因国家公园对我们来说很重要。One of which is that they help protect wildlife. We share our planet with many kinds of plants and animals. They can live for a longer period of time when their living places are protected . Moreover, there are many kinds of plants and animals that are really rare (稀少的)and cannot live at all if they are taken out of their natural living places. In such cases, their populations often go down, so they are in danger of going extinct(灭绝的).National parks help protect such rare and native kinds
National parks are protected areas that often have beautiful landscapes such as snow-covered mountains, sandy beaches and foggy rainforests. They may be worse if they experience more human interference(干涉). Luckily, a national park is a good pollution-free environment with less human interference. This helps to protect the landscapes.
What’s more, national parks provide a much healthier environment for us. Here, plants make fresh air, and the waterways are also clean. Therefore, walking in national parks, people may find some peace of mind.
