竹筍 bamboo shoots
It’s a great honor for me to introduce our national treasure — the panda.
The panda is a world-famous wild animal born in China. It only inhabits the forests in the west part of China. It has lived on the earth for over 10,000 years. Although they have fat figures, pandas are better at climbing trees than any other animal. The favorite food they depend on for living is bamboo shoots.
Pandas like drinking much water, so when finding water, they’ll drink like crazy. Originally, the name “panda” was given by a Frenchman. As is known, the panda is the symbol of luckiness and friendship, and the messenger of peace. Finally and interestingly, the panda tends to lose its temper easily when disturbed.
