中国国宝大熊猫

The National Treasure of China-Giant Panda

大熊猫是中国国家一级保护动物。它的身体只有黑色和白色两种颜色，它有着圆圆的脸，大大的黑眼圈，胖胖的身体，非常可爱。大熊猫已经在地球上生活了至少800万年，人们叫它 “活化石“ 和 “中国国宝”。大熊猫最开始是吃肉的，经过进化，现在它们的食物99%是竹子了。野外大熊猫现在主要生活在中国四川，陕西和甘肃的山区，一般能活到18-20岁；圈养的大熊猫可以超过30岁。大熊猫每天有一半的时间用来吃东西，剩下的一半时间多数是在睡觉。在野外，大熊猫在每两次吃东西的中间睡2-4个小时，即使在睡觉的时候，大熊猫看起来也很可爱。

The giant panda is a first-class national protected and endangered animal of China. It is black and white; it has a round face, big black eye patches and a chubby body. It is one of the most lovable animals in the world. Having existed on the earth for at least eight million years, giant pandas are known as “living fossils” and “the national treasure of China”. At first, giant pandas were carnivores, but then evolution happened, and now bamboos make up 99% of the food they eat. Today, wild pandas mainly live in the mountainous areas in Sichuan, Shaanxi and Gansu of China; they usually live to 18-20 years old, while captive pandas can live more than 30 years. Each day, giant pandas spend half the time eating and most of the other half sleeping. In the wild, giant pandas take a sleep of 2-4 hours between every two meals; they look lovable even when they are sleeping.
