英经人邻拔下川
六、One possible version:
Dear Tom,
I'm extremely glad to tell you about
my favourite landscape.I like the forest
best.The forest is full of tall and green
trees.It's like a big green world.It
produces a great deal of oxygen for us to
breathe.Also,it is a comfortable home for
many lovely animals.It's really important to
our life.But now,many forests are being
cut down by people.We should take action
right away.Stop cutting down trees and
plant more trees to protect the forest.
Best wishes!
