3.(8分)Dear Mr.President,
I am doing a project at school about animals in danger.I think the situation all over the world is really awful(可怕的).
Firstly.I feel so sorry for the giant panda.It's one of the most popular animals in the world.We learned that pandas mainly live on bamboo,and that a panda can eat half its body's weight of bamboo in24 hours!That's a lot of bamboo.I think we should try to do more to stop cutting down their forests.We would be so sad if they became extinct(灭绝)forever.
Secondly,what we should try to protect more is the Chinese alligator.These creatures live in some parts of eastern China.They live in freshwater rivers and lakes but the water in some places isn't clean enough for them to live in.It's really dirty in fact.The government should stop factories from polluting the lakes and rivers.
If we protect these beautiful animals in China,more people may come to China to visit our beautiful country,especially to see the quieter areas in the country.Now most visitors just see the cities,but they want to see more.
I hope you will en courage more people to think about such an important subject.
