I am a five-year-old elephant. When I was a baby, I lived in the wild with my parents. But some
hunters killed my mother, and they caught me. They sold me to this circus(马戏团) and a train carried
me here.
I was born in a large family. My mother was the head of the family. As you might know, when a
female is born into the family, she never leaves.
Closely and happily, we travelled together, ate together, played together, and slept togeth
er. When I was in the family, my mother and my sisters looked after me carefully. I played happily with all the other
elephants. Now, I miss them.
You enjoy watching my wonderful tricks. To make you laugh, I have to perform(表演) eight hours a
day. But you may ask yourself, "How did they make that elephant stand on his head?" I never stood on
his head in the wild. I don't enjoy any of the tricks. I perform tricks because they make me do this or that. And still I hear you want to see me because you love me, you say. But you are thinking about yourself
what you want, what you like. Please think about me. If you love me, give me what I need. I need to be
free, and to be with my family. And you can watch me on videos, DVDs and Web pages.

On holidays my parents often take me to the zoo in our city because I like animals. I have a lot of toy animals in my room. In the zoo I can see tigers, elephants, monkeys, pandas, bears, dolphins, giraffes and many other animals. Some animals are very friendly, but some are not. Tigers, bears and some snakes are very dangerous. That is why they have to stay in cages. But I don't think it's good for animals to stay in cages. They should be free. The animals in cages can't be happy.
Tigers usually live in forests and mountains. They can run very fast. They catch and eat small animals like rabbits and deer, but now they live in small rooms. They have nothing to do every day. So they walk in the cages, and they want to get out. When they are tired, they sleep. I feel sorry for them.
I think the most interesting animal in the zoo is dolphin. I like watching them swim and jump. They swim fast and they jump very high. They can play with a ball. They can stand up and “walk”on water! They are very friendly to people. If you fall into the water and you can't swim, they may come up to help you.
