二、书面表达。
校英文报正在开展动植物科普活动，并以“The Most Special Animal / Plant in My Eyes”为主题向学生征文。请你根据以下要点提示，写一篇短文投稿，先介绍你认为的最特别的动物或植物，再阐述你的理由，最后说明如何与之和谐相处。可适当发挥，不少于80词。
写作要点：
1. What do you know about this animal / plant? (appearance, living places ...)
2. Why do you think it's the most special?
3. How do you live peacefully with it?

The most special animal in my eyes is the panda. It's a large animal like a bear with soft black-and-white fur, a round face, and a fat body. Wild pandas live in the mountain forests across Sichuan, Shaanxi, and Gansu. They mostly feed on bamboo.
I think pandas are the most special because they're friendly and lovely in many ways. First, the black fur around their eyes looks like cool sunglasses. Second, they hold bamboo while eating, just like we hold our food! Besides, watching them play on the grass is one of the most relaxing things to do.
To live peacefully with pandas, we need to protect their homes. What's more, if we go to zoos to see pandas, we should never feed them any human food. Our food may make them sick.
