18th March

Today I went on the Internet and made an online tour around Zhalong. It took me a long time but it was very interesting.

 　Zhalong Nature Reserve is in Heilongjiand in the north-east of importance since 1992. Every year, visitors from China and other countries go to Zhalong to study the lives of birds and insects there.

 　Wetlands are important natural homes for birds and insects. Some fly there for a short stay. They can find water to drink, worms and other kinds of food to eat.

 　On my tour, I saw a lot of birds and insects. More than 200 kinds of birds stay in Zhalong in winter, including red-crowned cranes.

There are also more than 270 kinds of insects in Zhalong.

 　Zhalong welcomes more people to work there. It is a good chance for us to know more about their lives. From this tour, I have learned about the importance of wildlife protection. I know I should try to protect the environment, not to destroy it.

　　James Watt was an English boy. He was clever and bright. He liked to ask questions and was always thinking-hard. One day he was sitting in the kitchen with his old grandmother. There he saw a kettle on the fire. Soon steam began to come out of the kettle. It was rising, rising and rising. And the lid（盖子）was moving. “Grandma, what's in the kettle?” little Watt asked.” Water, my child, nothing but water.” “ I know there is something else. Look, it is pushing the lid up.”“ Oh that's only steam.” “How does the steam get under the lid? The steam must be very strong.” the boy said to himself.” It can push things, if there is more water, the steam will be much stronger.” Many years later, James Watt tried to make steam work for people. Finally he gave the world the first steam engine. His name lives forever.

　　1970 was World Conservation（保护）Year. The United Nations wanted everyone to know that the world is in danger. They hoped that government（政府）would act quickly to conserve nature（保护自然）. Here is one example of the problem. At one time there were 1 300 different plants, trees and flowers in Holland but now only 866 remain（剩余）. The others have been destroyed by modern man and his technology. We are changing the earth, the air, water and everything that grows and lives. We can't live without these things. If things go like this, we shall destroy（破坏）ourselves.
