Popcorn Park is not like most zoos．It is a very special place．Workers at the zoo care for hurt or sick animals．They return some of these animals to their natural homes．Those animals that cannot live on their own stay at Popcorn Park Zoo．
At first this unusual place was not a zoo．It was called the Forked River Animal Care Center．The workers there took care of lost or unwanted cats and dogs．
The change to the center began in 1977 when a raccoon needed help．The workers cared for the animal．Finally it was better, but it could not care for itself．The raccoon was allowed to live at the center．
Once people heard about the wonderful work being done at the center, they began taking all kinds of hurt or homeless animals there．Soon the center was no longer just a home for cats and dogs．So many animals were living at the center that it became more like a zoo．It was time for a new name．
Popcorn Park Zoo got its funny name because many of the animals there like to eat popcorn(爆米花)made without oil or salt．Also the popcorn is sold at the zoo to help make money to care for the animals．People buy the popcorn to feed the animals as a treat．
Popcorn Park Zoo now takes care of more than 200 kinds of animals．All the animals at the zoo get lots of care and love．

Dear Lin Tao,
I am writing to you in English．I hope you can understand(懂)it．
I love studying in London and I have many new friends．Most of them are my classmates．From Monday to Friday, we have English, math, physics and P．E．in the morning．I like English and physics, because they’re interesting．I don't like math．It's too boring．At noon, I have to have lunch at school because my home is far from(远离)my school．We usually have two classes in the afternoon－art and politics．We finish our classes at 3：30 p．m．After school, my friends and I always play football on the playground．And then we go home by bus．
On weekends, we have no classes．We often go to the park and sometimes we go to the movies in the evening．We see movies twice a month．I like some famous(著名的)actors like Jackie Chan．
Oh, I have no time to write more．Please write back soon．
Best wishes,
Wang Gang
