We can see a lot of flowers and （nation） flags around Tian'anmen Square on October 1st．
Wild animals are our friends， but many of them are getting fewer and fewer．We should try to protect them． The four animals below are now in danger．
Tibetan Antelopes
Tibetan antelopes （藏羚羊） mainly feed on grass． They are usually found in groups of about 20．They are killed for their wool， which is warm， soft and fine and can be made into expensive clothes．The number of them is dropping year by year． There are less than 75， 000 Tibetan antelopes left in the world．
Golden Monkeys
Golden monkeys are mainly found in Sichuan， Gansu， and Shanxi provinces． Golden monkeys have golden﹣orange fur （皮毛）．They move around in the daytime． They feed on fruits and young leaves of bamboos．But people are destroying the environment where they live．Trees and bamboos are disappearing，so golden monkeys have less and less to eat．
Elephants
Elephants are very big and strong． They are bigger than any other animals on land． They have poor eyesight， but very good hearing and smell． They can lift heavy things and break down branches with their trunk （象鼻）． Now， there are very few elephants in the world． The number of them is becoming smaller and smaller because their living areas are used for farming． Also，people hunt them for their tusks．
Wolves
Wolves are not very big． They have grey fur， Wolves have very good eyesight， hearing and smell．They eat animals， insects and snails． They are friendly to each other and never attack （攻击） people．Wolves are in danger， too． They are losing their living areas because people cut down forests． Soon they will have no home or food．

Last month we asked our students about their free time activities．Our questions were about exercise，use of the Internet and watching TV．（1）
We found that only fifteen percent of our students exercise every day． Forty﹣five percent exercise four to six times a week． Twenty percent exercise only one to three times a week．（2）
We all know that many students often go online， but we were surprised that ninety percent of them use the Internet every day． The other ten percent use it at least three or four times a week．Most students use it for fun and not for homework．
（3） Only two percent of the students watch TV one to three times a week．Thirteen percent watch TV four to six times a week．And eighty﹣five percent watch TV every day!Although many students like to watch sports， game shows are the most popular．
It is good to relax by using the Internet or watching game shows， （4） It is healthy for the mind and the body． Exercise such as playing sports is fun， and you can spend time with your friends and family as you play together． And remember， "Old habits die hard．"（5）

"What's more， it's never too late to learn． （9） you have a dream， it's never too late to make it come true．"
