On my recent trip to Sydney with my parents, we visited the Wildlife Park.
The Wildlife Park has lots of different animals and birds. Some are native (当地的) toAustralia and can only be found there. There are over 600 animals there, including kangaroos,koalas and crocodiles (鳄鱼). They are kept in their natural environment. I like the Wildlife Park better than a zoo where most of the animals are in cages (笼子).
We first spent some time with the kangaroos. We were allowed to touch and feed them. It was very exciting to be so close to them. There were koalas there too. They looked very cuddly (令人想拥抱的). Although we were not allowed to carry them, I got to take a photo with one. It is a wonderful souvenir (纪念品) of my holiday in Sydney.
The Wildlife Park has plenty of freshwater and saltwater crocodiles. Some of them arereally big and scary (吓人的) with huge teeth! I did not want to get too close to them.
There was also a bird show. The keepers showed us different species (种类) they had. I saw an old parrot which could “talk”. It made a great impression on me.
I enjoyed the trip very much. There was so much to see.

Bikesharing is new for short journeys in cities. It is a good choice for the big cities to develop healthily.
A report found that shared bikes started the nation's love for bikes again. The love is not only among young people born in the 1980s and 2000s, but also among people over sixty. Now they are choosing bikes instead of cars to make short journeys in cities. If you have a smart phone, the nearest bike equipped with GPS will be easily found through a certain app on your phone. It can also be unlocked through the app and left anywhere in public for the next user. The cost of riding depends on the time that you spend. Normally, every hour you ride, you just need to pay one yuan.
It is said that bikesharing will help improve the cities' environment. It not only helps solve the traffic problems, but also will help to make more use of space in cities. Take Beijing as an example. If more people choose shared bikes, an area of five Bird's Nest Stadiums （体育场）will be saved.
At the same time, there are some problems with shared bikes that people need to solve properly. For example, some people park the bikes in their home; some break up the bikes on purpose; and others even throw them into the river. Facing all these problems, everyone should raise their own awareness of protecting the bikes. We should not only enjoy them, but also value them and put them to good use.
Judge the following statements True (T) or False (F)
1.Old people love shared bikes besides the young.
2.GPS are shared bikes equipped with.
3.One dallar does a one﹣hour riding on shared bikes cost.
4.You can leave share bikes in your home.
5.Bikesharing will help improve the cities' environment.
