63、ar Sir or Madam, Ive learned from a newspaper that six of eight bear species in the world are dying out as a result of human activities. One of the reasons why bears are often killed is that some parts of bears are very expensive as medicine. In this way, some people can get more money. In addition,

64、 many habitats of bears are being destroyed, so bears are losing their homes.In my view, it is right time that we should take more measures to save bears right now. For example, more reserves for bears should be set up so that they can live freely there. Besides, Laws should be passed to prevent people from killing bears. Please give a hand to the endangered bears. They need help to survive.Yours sincerelyLi Hua
