There is a nature park in the southwest of our city. The government built it (protect) the rare animals. The nature (park) has been the (symbolize) of our city.

    Yesterday my friends and I visited it. The workers there asked us not (feed) animals. Many animals are in (dangerous) because people kill them for their meat and fur. Another reason is that people are taking their land and making their water (undirty). The situation becoming very serious.

    I learnt much yesterday. I think people should (set) up more comfortable houses for the animals and help them live  peace. We should do our best to protect them, because protecting them is protecting ourselves.

    We all know the giraffes are the tallest living animal on land. Do you want to learn more about them? Let me tell you.

    Giraffes live in Africa. They have very long necks. A giraffe can be more than 5 metres tall.

    A giraffe has four long and thin legs. The front legs are longer than the back legs. It can run up to 70 kilometres per hour. A giraffe is famous for its long neck. It can reach the leaves at the top of the trees.

    A giraffe can live 20～25 years in the wild, and often longer at zoos. An adult(成年的) giraffe eats up to 63 kilograms of food each day. A giraffe spends most of a day eating and it gets just a few leaves once. It eats leaves on the tall trees, tall bushes and grass. But its favourite food is the leaves on the acacia trees(金合欢树). Acacia leaves contain a lot of water, so a giraffe can eat for a long time without drinking.

    Mrs Brown lives in a small town in Australia. There is a big farm near the town.

    On Saturday morning, she goes to her small shop. She opens the window of the shop and looks at the farm. It's very beautiful. There are many cows, horses and small animals on the farm. Suddenly she sees a kangaroo with her baby. It's interesting to see them! The mother kangaroo is wearing an old jacket. They stand there and look hungry. Mrs Brown gives some bread to them. The kangaroos get it. Then they become happy and jump away. Suddenly a wallet drops on the floor from the jacket pocket. She picks it up and finds $ 300 and a photo in it. That is a man's photo with his name "John" on it. "John? I have a brother. His name is also John,"Mrs Brown says. "Is this man my lost brother?" she thinks.

    She takes the wallet with her and begins to look for the man. She asks many people in the town, and then she comes to the farm and asks the farmer. Hey! It is John, her lost brother. They are very happy to see each other.
