However, over the last decade (十年) the number of lions has decreased from 10,000 to over 2,000. Most of them were killed by the local people because they had to dosoto protect their cows.As well as the cows, wild animals should be protected. Now because of a creative idea thought of by a young boy, this problem can be solved peacefully.At the age of 11, Richard Turere was put in charge of the familys cows. The local people think this job is an honor since cows are considered the family fortune.The only problem was that their land was next to Nairobi National Park, home to the largest number of lions in the world. As a result, the cows were often eaten by the hungry lions.Richard noticed that when he walked around the cows with a flashlight, the lions kept away because they were afraid of humans and the flashlight. So he decided to create an automated (自动的) flashlight. Richard tied some bulbs (灯泡) from broken flashlights around the cow stockade (栅栏). Under an automated lighting system, the bulbs flashed one by one, just like someone walking around with a flashlight that could keep lions away. xSince Richards invention was put to use, none of Richards cows has lost.

Last winter holiday, I visited Hong Kong for the first time with my mother and her workmates. Before we went through the entrance of the Customs and Excise Department (香港海关，缩写为CED), we had to wait for more than four hours there. All the passengers must show their permits (许可证) to the workers at the CED one by one. So there were a large number of people waiting in lines at the entrance hall. It took us a long time to walk along the metal pipes which divided the big hall into many different parts. So the entrance hall looked like a huge puzzle. Everyone should finish walking through the puzzle if they wanted to pass the entrance. I waited patiently and walked slowly after others. I just could see the back of their heads. It was difficult for me to breathe because too many people were there. At last I passed it but I was too tired to say a word.Last month I visited Hong Kong again. But this time I didnt spend much time waiting at the entrance of the CED because I got an Electronic Exit Permit with an “Electronic Brain” in it. When I passed the port of Hong Kong, I just needed to use it to touch the button at the entrance. It can save much time for people. I plan to visit Hong Kong again sometime in the future.41 .
