Dear human beings,

    Hi! I'm 80 years old now. So I've seen 1 of the world. We've lived on Earth with you thousands of years. Each day we release(释放) O₂ and remove harmful gas so that you have fresh 2; we help prevent the Earth's soil（土壤）from being washed away, and above all, we give all kinds of fruits, nuts, beans as well as 3 to you.

    We are now in great 4 because of you. You are killing us at a terrible speed. You are burning and cutting down millions of us each year, but you're not 5enough. For every tree being planted today, 30 trees are being cut down. What would you do if all of us 6? Perhaps you would die, too.7 us, you wouldn't get enough material for buildings, furniture（家具）, paper products, and your cities would 8ugly.

    Red squirrels were common (常见的) in British forests and countryside. But there are1than 140,000 red squirrels left now and most of them are in Scotland. However, grey squirrels are now so common that many people2them. They can hunt and kill them legally (合法的).

    The two types of squirrels look similar. They both have a long3, which helps the squirrel to jump from tree to tree, and the same large eyes, small ears and powerful back legs.4, the grey squirrel has a clear advantage (优势) over the red. The red squirrel has a head—and—body length of 19 to 23 cm and a tail length of 15 to 20 cm. But the grey squirrel is a5animal. The head—and—body length is between 23 and 30 cm. This6allows (允许) them to store more fat and7them to live in a hard winter.

    So why is the number of red squirrels smaller than that of grey squirrels? Size is one reason, but there are others. Red squirrels live high up in8, while grey squirrels spend more of their time on the ground. This means the missing of forests greatly influences the red squirrel's population. Another reason for the grey squirrel's success (成功) is its9to get food easily from people. Like the fox, the grey squirrel10live in towns and cities. The other problem for the red squirrel is illness, it is fatal (致命的) to them.
