I am an animal lover. The other day, I went to a park in which there was a huge bird nest, the size of a football field. The nest is as tall as a four-story building. It allows birds of all kinds to live with much more freedom than the traditional small birdcage. Within the nest, visitors can see different birds walk or fly freely everywhere without being afraid of people. There is a lake in the middle of the bird nest. Wild ducks and white swans swim on the lake, looking for food thrown down by visitors. Before I left the bird nest, I attended a bird show, in which some birds were trained to speak, some to play basketball and some to ride bikes. Of course they are toy balls and bikes, very small. I liked the show very much.

Recently, students in our class have had a discussion on whether space is worth exploring.
30% of us think space exploration is not worthwhile. They think space is too far away from us and our daily life. And the money spent on space exploration can be used to solve the earth’s problems such as starvation and pollution.
On the other hand, 70% think space is worth exploring because we have benefited a lot from it, such as using satellites for communication and weather forecast. Wh at’s more, with further space research, we may solve the population problem by moving to other planets one day. Also, space research will enable us to find new sources to solve the problem of energy shortages on the earth.
