   There are many kinds of animals in the world, not only the humans. Welive in the same world, and we should be friends. As everybody knows, thehumans are the rulers of the world today, so we should protect our friends—theanimals!

   But how to protect them? At first, I think we must stop killing birdsand other animals, especially the young ones. Second, we have to protect theenvironment—to make the sky blue, to make the grass green, to give the animalsa comfortable space to live. It's not only for the animals but also forourselves. Third, we should tell more and more people the reason for protectingand how to protect the animals, and make everyone do this.

    Trees are useful to man in three important ways.

    The first important way is that they provide man with wood and other products. Trees provide not only man but also many animals with food. Without trees, many animals could not live on the Earth. It's not easy for man to live on the Earth either.

    The second important way is that trees give us shade. On a hot summer day, people are eager（渴望）to have a rest under the tree after they have a long walk. You can imagine how important the shade of a tree is to man and animals.

    The third important way is that trees help to prevent droughts and floods. However, in many parts of the world, people haven't realized the third way.Theycut trees down in large numbers. In the end, they find that they have lost the best friends they had.

Dear friends,

    I am writing this letter to draw your attention to the disasters（灾难）these days. Too much rain destroyed the crops and washed the earth away. Sometimesitwas too little and made plants dead. Also there was too much dust in the air. All these did great damage to our life.

    However, we made them! So it is time for us to try our best to save the Earth.

    The most important thing is to plant trees as many as possible. At the same time, we should stop cutting down trees and protect the forests. And we can save our planet through many other ways, such as saving water and using both sides of paper. Besides, don't keep TVs or computers on when you are not using them. When you leave a room, turn off the lights.

    A small action is very helpful to our planet. Please join us in the action of protecting the Earth. Let's start from the little things right around us.

    During breeding season, a male penguin (企鹅) will offer a small stone to a female penguin as a gift.When the female penguin lays an egg, she and her partner may carry it on their feet, because some penguins don't build nests.

    Crocodiles (鳄鱼) swallow (吞) stones. Crocodiles always swallow their food instead of eating it like other animals. They swallow stones which break the food into very small pieces in their stomachs.

    Elephants use plants to treat pain or other illness. Scientists once found a pregnant (怀孕的) elephant in Africa who ate a kind of plant which was not part of her normal food.The same plant was used by the local pregnant women.
