If you see something when you’re riding   4   bike or walking down the street, just think about “How would I say them in English?” At first, it might be with simple words or phrases, but later you should think about   5   phrases and sentences. Now I am in America, and for most of   6   time, I would think in English and speak it directly. It is amazing how much this helps.For several years after I started learning, I was often afraid of   7   with others in English because I did not want to make mistakes. Finally I got it over. And while   8   in America, I’d try to hang out with friends who couldn’t speak Chinese, so that I’d have no choice but to speak English. And I also decided that if I   9   something stupid and other people laughed at me, then so be it. After that, my English started improving much   10  .Besides, it may be a good idea to ask your American friends to look at the way you’re writing, and give you some suggestions for improvement.1.

More than 700 Milu deer live freely there.

This means there will be less and less space for wildlife.Luckily, more and more people are beginning to realize the importance of wetlands and wildlife. Every year, on February 2nd, many activities are held to tell people more about wetlands. And on March 12th every year, we plant many trees to protect our earth.26.
