As is known to all, there are 55 minority groups (少数民族) in China, each with its traditional customs and culture. Now let's take a look at the Tibetan Minority.
The Tibetan Minority groups live in Qinghai, Gansu, Sichuan and Yunnan Provinces. And the highest ridge in the world--beautiful and mysterious Tibet is their major living place. As there are rich grass in Tibet, most people live on raising sheep, goats, cattle and growing a special kind of plant called Qingke. Because of the weather, people often wear warm and comfortable boots in winter, and they always wear robes (长袍) which are made of the fur (毛皮) of sheep. Often they take off one sleeve of the clothes in order to work easily and use it as warm quilts at night.
Both men and women are good at singing and dancing. When meet an important guest, they will present him a Hada, a piece of long white silk cloth to show their respect(尊重). And they will also treat the guest to a special kind of drink called Suyou Tea.
The Tibetan Minority has deep emotions. The people there are warm-hearted and friendly. They live freely and happily on the spacious grassland. Their history and culture are very important in China, so we should protect them and make them happy and let them receive great respect.

There is a lake near a forest in Sweden. The water in the lake is very clear and everything is quiet and still. On the far side of the water is some farmland and further away, across the field, is an old church built on a hill. It has just stopped raining. The brook(小溪) flowing into the lake is full and there is still some half-melted(半融化的) snow from last winter on the ground.
The reason the water is so clear, and everything is so quiet and still, is that most of the plant and animal life in and around the lake is dead. There are no birds because all the fish and insects, which the birds need for food, have disappeared. Many trees in the forest are losing their leaves and bark (树皮), and are sick and dying. Others were blown down by the high winds of last winter. A farmer is working in a field planting something, but unless he plants a stronger kind of seed this year, the crop will be between 25 to 40 percent lower than a few years ago. The stones of the old church tower are turning to powder and unless the tower is repaired soon, it will fall down.
All the death and destruction(破坏) in this place is caused by the smoke coming out of factories and poisonous gases from cars and trucks. And yet this silent lake is hundreds of meters aways from the nearest factory and highway.
