1 . Do you like animals? And do you know that many animals are becoming fewer and fewer in number now. These animals might disappear from the earth very soon. Take a look at the following animals. They’re all in danger of extinction.

	The African lion has nowhere to live because of the wars (战争) in southern Africa. Besides, hunters (捕猎者) and farmers often kill them. Why not stop hunters and farmers from killing them?
	The Sussa lvanius is a kind of boar (野猪). It is the smallest pig in the world. It mainly lives in the northeast of India. It’s about sixty cm long and twenty-five cm high. Adult (成年) pigs are less than ten kilograms. But there are only several in the park in India.
	The African elephants are the largest land animals in Africa. They are very clever. They have good memories. But people kill them for their tusks (长牙). Half of the African elephants have disappeared. I think we should refuse to buy the products made of tusks.
