Wildlife trade covers a wide range of everyday product, such as flowers, plants and clothes. Nearly all of we are consumers of them in one form or another.
However, a large proportion of this trade is the result of poaching (偷獵), that is a criminal activity. It involve the killing of wild animals and the sale of parts of their bodies for profit.
Rhinos are being killed in large numbers increasing. Nowadays international criminal organisations use advance technology such as high-powered rifles (步槍) and helicopters.
There's a demand for rhino horns because many people believe that they can used as a cure for some diseases. Many rhinos are also killed for their hide (獸皮) which can be made from luxury fashion goods such as boots and shoes.

Dear Sir or Madam,
I am writing to apply for a job as an Olympic volunteer.
I'm bilingual in Chinese and English. I've studied English for ten years. I once worked in a clothes shop, a bookshop and so on. I also did voluntary work for the disabled, so I've a lot of experience with people of different ages and needs now.
I'm very interested in working for you because I would enjoy being part of the Olympic Games. I really believe in the Olympic idea and love this job helping people in need. I'm sure it'll help me learn a lot and allow me to serve others a lot, too.
Please feel free to contact me if you need more information or for an interview at any time.

(B) One possible version:
My father earned a huge salary and had a very successful career, but we seldom saw him. For me, money is not the most important thing in the world.
Without doubt, there is a feeling of safety in being wealthy. We'll never be homeless or hungry. With the money, my father can buy me everything I want. In addition, it means my father will probably have reached the top of his career and he'll have achieved success as well as wealth, but I want to ask him, my dear father, “Will you be happy? Will your family be happy?”
Therefore, I think on the one hand, money makes us rich, but on the other hand, it makes us poor. It's true you're able to buy your children everything they want. However, you can't give them all the time and love they want. For this reason, I conclude that money is definitely not the most important thing in the world.
