Can we give a hand to those endangered animals? Yes, we may only do a little bit, but together our small actions add up to a lot.
1 Protect wildlife habitat (栖息地).
Perhaps the greatest threat that faces many species (物种) is the widespread destruction (破坏) of habitat. Cutting down forests, farming, and development all result in loss of wildlife habitat. In areas where rare (稀有的) species live, habitat destruction can quickly force a species to extinction (灭绝). By protecting habitat, entire communities of animals can be protected together naturally.
2Reduce the threat (威胁) of invasive (入侵的) species.
The spread of non-native species has greatly reduced native populations around the world. Invasive species compete with native species for resources (资源) and habitat. They can even prey (捕食) on native species directly, forcing native species towards extinction.
3 Place decals (贴花纸) on windows.
It is reported that as many as one billion birds in the United States die each year because of collisions (碰撞) with windows. You can help reduce the number of collisions simply by placing decals on the windows in your home and office.
4 Slow down when driving.
Many native animals have to live in developed areas and this means they must move in human-living areas. One of the biggest obstacles (障碍) to them is that created by roads. Roads divide habitat and present a constant (不断的) risk to any animal attempting to cross from one side to the other. So when you’re out and about, slow down and keep an eye out for wildlife.

When I talk to my friends back in the US, one of the things they often ask me is whether I miss the food back home. I do miss certain things, like my mom’s cooking, as well as a kind of food that I cannot find in Beijing—Americanized Chinese food.
Why would you want a foreign version of Chinese food when you can get the real thing? Well, American Chinese food is attractive in its own way.
Most American Chinese food can be traced back to (追溯到) Guangdong Province. In the early 20th century, thousands of Chinese came to the US from Guangdong to find work. They settled down in places like San Francisco, where they created the Chinatown communities that still exist (存在) today. And of course, they brought their cuisine (菜肴) with them.
But they changed their dishes greatly in order to appeal to (迎合) American tastes. American Chinese food is typically sweeter and heavier than traditional Chinese food. Traditional Chinese cuisine uses vegetables as a main ingredient. But in American Chinese food, vegetables are considered to be a side dish(配菜).
The American Chinese takeout meal may also come with fortune (幸运) cookies. These are thin, hollow cookies that have a small piece of paper inside. Your “fortune” is written on the paper, along with your “lucky numbers”. You’ll never get these cookies when eating takeout in China.
Of course, I enjoy authentic (正宗的) Chinese food very much. But there is something about American Chinese dishes, like General Tso’s chicken, Grab Wontons and chow mein, which I really miss. When I go home for holiday, my family is always surprised when I ask them to order American Chinese takeout. But to me, it is a special treat indeed.
