　　1) ... is the best company.

　　2) ... are widely believed as _____________

　　3) Most Chinese admire it as a symbol of ___________

　　4) The qualities I associate with them are___________

　　此處呼應一下引入的部分，作為從動物生活習性的介紹到對動物印象介紹的過渡。同樣填入一些代表動物性格特征的名詞，如獅子對應Cold-blooded killers或著brave warrior, which has a lot to do with its actual natural，老虎對應strength and fierceness等，可參考引入部分的列舉。

　　5) ... are depicted as _____________ creatures.

　　6) Some people at first suppose that polar bears are ________animals. However, they are, actually, _______ animals. (r.f. reading material)

　　作用同上，只是這個句型中需要填寫代表個性的形容詞，如：social/ solitary/ trustworthy/ fascinating/ tame/ easy-to-train/ (fox) sly/ (mule) stubborn/ (pig) messy and lazy等。

　　7) I don't think many Chinese know that this special breed of _______ is all but wiped out/ died out in the wild. I hope more efforts will be made in the future to protect the ______'s environment. Without the forests they live and hunt in, ______ can only exist in captivity.

　　如果話題要求描述瀕危物種，建議考生在結尾部分可以提倡下如何保護他們，空格中填入動物名稱即可。

　　【回答范例】

　　Mandarin Ducks, which are referred to by the Chinese as Yuan-yang, are frequently featured in oriental arts and are regarded as a symbol of conjugal affection and loyalty. The Mandarin Duck is a medium-sized perching duck, which is approximately half-a-meter long. The adult male is a striking and unmistakable bird. The common characteristics of it include a large/ small body with a red bill, reddish face and "whiskers". The female is usually paler than the male. Mandarins may form small flocks in winter, but rarely associate with other ducks. In the wild, Mandarin Ducks breed in densely wooded areas near shallow lakes, marshes or ponds. They nest in trees close to water and during the spring, the females lay their eggs in the tree's cavity after mating. The males take no part in the incubation, simply leaving the female to secure the eggs on her own. Although this characteristic seems quite cold-blooded, the Mandarin Duck symbol is still widely used in Chinese weddings, because in traditional Chinese lore they have the reputation of wedded bliss and fidelity. However, they are rarely raised as pets in China.
