    Hello. We are students from Thailand, and we want to save the elephants. The elephant is one of Thailand's {#blank#}1{#/blank#}. Our first flag had a white elephant on it. This is symbol of good luck.

    Elephants are {#blank#}2{#/blank#} animals. They can play soccer or music. They can also draw very well. People say that "an elephant never {#blank#}3{#/blank#}." Elephants can walk for a long time and {#blank#}4{#/blank#} get lost. They can also remember places {#blank#}5{#/blank#} food and water. This {#blank#}6{#/blank#} them to live.

{#blank#}7{#/blank#}elephants are in great danger. People cut down many trees {#blank#}8{#/blank#} elephants are losing their homes. People also kill elephants {#blank#}9{#/blank#} their ivory. Today there are only about 3,000 elephants (over 100,000 before). We must save the trees and not buy things {#blank#}10{#/blank#} of ivory. Remember that March 13th is Thai Elephant Day.

    You may have no idea about how{#blank#}1{#/blank#}our motherland is. With a history of more than 5, 000 years, China has always been a mysterious land to foreigners. In 2008, a documentary(纪录片) called Wild China was broadcast on BBC. There were six episodes(集) in all-Heart of the Dragon, Shangri la, Tibet, Beyond the Grear Wall. Land of the Panda and Tides of Change. This 300-minute long documentary shocked the audience with China's beautiful scenery.

    Wild China may be the best of China. However, it is more than a travelogue. The documentary not only{#blank#}2{#/blank#}the wildlife of China but also the way it{#blank#}3{#/blank#}and interacts with human life. From high definition cameras, you can see the beautiful Himalayas and the Gobi desert; you can take a look at the hills of Southern China filled with rice paddies(水稻田) and the land of the panda; you can also discover how silk is collected and the history of the Silk Road.
