There is a nature park in the southwest of our city. The government built it to {#blank#}1{#/blank#} the rare animals. The nature park has been the {#blank#}2{#/blank#} of our city.

    Yesterday my friends and I visited it. The workers there asked us not to {#blank#}3{#/blank#}animals. Many animals are in{#blank#}4{#/blank#} because people kill them for their meat and fur. Another reason is that people are taking {#blank#}5{#/blank#}their land and making their water dirty . The {#blank#}6{#/blank#} is becoming very serious.

    I learnt much yesterday. I think people should {#blank#}7{#/blank#} up more comfortable houses for the animals and help them live in {#blank#}8{#/blank#}. We should do our best to protect them, because protecting them is protecting ourselves.

    It is fun being a vet. I like it. Although it is hard work, every day is different! It all depends on what is wrong with the{#blank#}1{#/blank#}that come in.

At my clinic, I work long hours on Mondays, Wednesdays and Fridays, and short hours on Tuesdays, Thursdays and Saturdays. Sunday is my day off so I can{#blank#}2{#/blank#}some time with my family.

    My day at my clinic begins at 7 a.m. My clerk opens the door,{#blank#}3{#/blank#}some music, and makes everyone a cup of tea or coffee. My assistant cleans and feeds the animals. The phones start to ring, and people make appointments. This is a very{#blank#}4{#/blank#}time of day!
