(A)Dear editors。
I am a middle school studeat.I’ve justread an article in a newspaper about savingtigers.It says that the population of tigers isgetting smaller and smaller.I think thereare about only four hundred tigers now，and here may have two main reasons for that.For example，last Tuesday I saw a few peo-ple selling skins of tigers by the roadside.It’s terrible.The other reason is that too many trees have been cut down，which hasdestroyed the places where tigers used to live.Tigers are dying out.I hope that the govern ment takes steps to pass laws to protect tigers and punish the tiger hunters.We should work together to make a pleasant home for both human beings and animals.
Yours sincerelv，

(A)Dear editors。
I am a middle school studeat.I’ve justread an article in a newspaper about savingtigers.It says that the population of tigers isgetting smaller and smaller.I think thereare about only four hundred tigers now，and here may have two main reasons for that.For example，last Tuesday I saw a few peo-ple selling skins of tigers by the roadside.It’s terrible.The other reason is that too many trees have been cut down，which hasdestroyed the places where tigers used to live.Tigers are dying out.I hope that the govern ment takes steps to pass laws to protect tigers and punish the tiger hunters.We should work together to make a pleasant home for both human beings and animals.
Yours sincerelv，
