1. The story about African pythons
There are many pythons in Africa. Black people also know that Chinese people love to eat these game animals. Black people often carry pythons to Chinese shops or Chinese people. Peddling in concentrated residential areas. They bargain with the Chinese and usually get a good price that they agree with.
The two Chinese young men were very happy. Looking at their high spirits, you knew they were going to have another delicious meal!
This young man was very enthusiastic and asked me to take a photo.
During the Spring Festival, Chinese people go to Chinese restaurants from the first to the fifth day of the Lunar New Year, and the last dish must be snake meat. Later, netizens left a message saying that snakes are spiritual things and businessmen should not eat them. Eating too much will affect their financial prospects. I still remember that this sentence was said by Dazhu Huihai, so yesterday I saw black people selling this python. I ignored those black people. I didn’t want to eat this thing anymore. Today, I saw these Chinese young men buying this python, so I asked them how much they paid for it. They said it was very cheap, more than 20,000 lang, equivalent to 30 yuan.
This python is not big. Maybe there are too many Chinese people here, and everyone has eaten the big ones. There is a bit of a shortage of supply, right? During the Spring Festival, Chinese people drive jeeps dozens of kilometers out of the city specifically to buy pythons. Now all black people know that the Chinese like these game meats, and if they catch them, they send them to Chinese stores. Aren’t these things becoming less and less popular?
Two years ago, Hunan Hydropower International Cooperation Company was building a hydropower station 700 kilometers away from the capital Conakry. Black people near their power station killed a python. According to their video, the python was as thick as a cement pole and more than ten meters long. The Chinese also bought five kilograms of snake meat from black people for 3,000 lang per kilogram, which is equivalent to RMB 5 per kilogram.
They said the most interesting thing was the black father and son. The python was first seen by his father. The son heard from his father that there was a python in the cave on the mountain that could swallow a calf. It ran across the grass and crushed the grass. The son asked his father to catch pythons together. The father said that he had never seen such a big python in his life and he did not dare to go. The news that there was a giant python on the mountain spread throughout the hydropower station, causing people to panic. Chinese engineering workers no longer dare to walk after get off work. They climb into construction vehicles or jeeps and ride back to their residences. In the past, everyone would walk slowly along the ravines and canals after get off work. The beautiful scenery there attracted many Chinese people to drive hundreds of kilometers from Conakry to enjoy the scenery. Everyone stayed there for several days, wandering back and forth and reluctant to come back, but a big python scared them. No one dares to go out alone. Who still wants to enjoy the scenery of the African mountains?
The son was a bold black boy. He carried a shotgun and a hunting dog alone and ran to the entrance of the snake cave to light a fire. After burning for several days, there was no movement in the cave. Now the father spoke. He scolded the black boy for not having any brains. Such a big snake hole usually has several exits. If you don't block those holes, you will never be able to drive out the giant python. Marriage is early in Africa, and the father and son are not much different in age, maybe more than ten years old. The son is in his twenties, and the father is less than forty years old. They look like a pair of brothers, but the son is more powerful. After hearing these words, the son refused to listen to his father's advice. The father asked his son not to catch snakes, but he was careful and his life was lost, so the son ran to the snake cave again. He worked alone on the mountain with the dog for several days, and finally blocked all the snake holes, large and small. That day, he lit a fire again at the entrance of the largest snake cave. After the fire started, he pressed the earth down to extinguish the open fire. Suddenly, thick smoke came out of the fire, and the smoke filled the snake cave. After a while, the big snake rushed out. When the black man came out, he was startled. He raised his gun and started shooting. The boy was good at shooting and hit the snake on the head with one shot. The hunting dog rushed up to bite the giant python again. Seeing that the giant python was still twisting its body, the black man caught up and shot the snake at seven inches. The so-called seven inches to hit a snake is actually the heart of the snake. . After the giant python was beaten to death, more than a dozen black people carried the giant python down the mountain.
After the python was brought back, the father and son had a quarrel. The father said that he discovered the giant python, which meant that he provided important clues. He asked his son to give him some snake meat for free. In other words, for those of us from big cities, my father wants information fees, haha.
The son disagreed. He said that his father was timid and afraid of death, which was not the character a hunter in the mountains should have. He invited his father several times to catch snakes, but he always refused. If all the black people in the mountains were like his father, cowering away, and next time a large beast like a lion or black bear appeared on the mountain, who would come forward to fight? If men don't step forward at such a critical moment, who will protect the women and children of the villagers?
In the end, everyone in the village thought that the son was right and asked his father to pay for snake meat from his son. The father spent more than 6,000 lang and bought two kilograms of snake meat from his son.
Later, the Chinese people argued about this matter for a long time. Who is right and who is wrong? How can the relationship between father and son get along like this? But when you think about black people living in the mountains, it will be difficult for them to survive for generations unless everyone works together to hunt down large beasts such as pythons and African lions. They also have their own survival principles, which no one can violate at will. It is understandable for black people to do this.
2. An 800-word composition based on the theme of turtles biting snakes
There are about 3,000 species of snakes in the world, including more than 600 species of venomous snakes. There are 216 species of snakes in China, including 65 species of venomous snakes.
Individual snakes vary greatly. The thread snake, which is distributed in the Caribbean islands such as Martinia and Barbados, is the shortest non-venomous snake in the world, only 9 centimeters long, and the longest thread snake is only 11.94 centimeters. The largest venomous snake is the king cobra, which is 6 meters long. Pythons distributed in Southeast Asia, Indonesia and the Philippines are generally more than 6.25 meters long, and the longest ones can reach about 10 meters. The anacondas in South America are even longer, reaching more than 11 meters and weighing more than 100 kilograms. The most venomous snake in the world is the black mamba. It ranks first in terms of speed, venom toxicity and attack power. It is the out-and-out king of venomous snakes. There is also a snake called the Green Mamba in the world. Many people mistakenly believe that the Green Mamba is more powerful, but that is not the case at all. The Green Mamba is not as good as the Black Mamba in any aspect. Snakes have very good memories and are very vengeful. They can accurately identify people who have hurt them and will wait for opportunities to retaliate many years later. When fellow snakes are violated, they sometimes attack in groups. But snakes can also repay kindness. Ancient books once recorded the story of "The Marquis of the Sui Dynasty saw a wounded snake and healed it and revived it. The snake recovered and ran away, holding a luminous bead in its mouth to repay the favor." In real life, there are also pythons called "Dragon Dragons" who save people. A domestic python saved a child from a flood, a domestic python led people during a flood, a Hainan python caught a thief and took care of a child, and other incidents. As early as the 3rd century BC, the profession of snake charmer existed in India. In the "snake flute" played by the "snake man", snakes danced in a flexible, graceful and fascinating way. Pythons in some parts of South America can also be domesticated into domestic pythons, responsible for guarding the house and "looking after" young children. The non-venomous snakes raised by residents on the Indonesian island of Flores can work in the fields with their owners. After the seeds are planted in the ground, it will stay in the ground to drive away wild birds that peck at the seeds; when the fruits on the tree are ripe, the domestic snake will climb up the branches, flick its tail, and knock down the ripe fruits. Some countries also use venomous snakes to guard their treasury. In addition to using modern devices, they also put in one or two highly venomous snakes to scare away gold thieves. Even more interesting is the use of live snakes as earrings. In western Cameroon, Africa, there is a "silver gun snake" that is as thin as a finger and has extremely beautiful patterns. After catching the snake, local women remove the fangs, tie the snake's tail into a small circle, tie a thin thread and thread it through the earlobe. The Silver Gun Snake always raises its head and spits out its fiery tongue, which is very interesting. The main feature of the python is its thick and long body. It is the largest primitive snake in the world, with traces of a belt and hind limbs. The male snake has obvious horny spurs with degenerated hind limbs near the vagina, but the female snake is more degenerate and can easily be ignored. In addition, it has pairs of well-developed lungs, while higher snakes only have one or one vestigial lung. The body surface patterns of pythons are very beautiful, with large clouded leopard-like spots arranged symmetrically, with black or white spots around the edges. The body scales are smooth, the back is light yellow, grayish brown or tan, and the patches on the back of the body are very irregular. The python's head is small and black, with a black spot on the back and under the eye, yellowish white under the throat, and no obvious differentiation of abdominal scales. The tail is short and thick, with strong winding and aggressiveness. 3. An 800-word essay on "Wild Africa" ??
Today, I watched a documentary called "The End of the Wild". The general content is: Yao Ming set foot on the African continent for the first time and saw the tragic scenes of animals being hunted. Elephants, gazelles, African buffaloes, rhinos and many other wild animals were hunted. Hunters removed the precious body parts of these animals and left the carcasses where they were. The elephant king, who once weighed nine tons and was about two stories high, was also brutally killed by them...
I was thinking, why are our kind so bloody and cruel? The earth belongs to everyone. If all animals in Africa or around the world are hunted by humans, humans will not survive long because the ecology will be out of balance. A blue planet that was once the most beautiful in the solar system now has only a few animals and billions of humans. Can such an environment be beautiful? The once cute Dodo was completely extinct due to human hunting. Moreover, a football field can hold all the white rhinos in the world. I estimate that about 125 species of wild animals have become extinct around the world. If an elephant's mother dies, the baby elephant will not live long. It is really "cut off from offspring".
Please those ignorant people stop killing animals, as Yao Ming said: "If people continue to kill animals, then there will be no beauty on the earth in the future!"

Africa is a vast country with abundant resources and its people are hardworking and hardworking. However, Africa has suffered from 500 years of colonial rule. Imperialist and colonialist aggression, exploitation and plunder have turned Africa into the "poorest continent" in the world. According to the United Nations, 33 of the 48 least developed countries in the world are African countries; of the more than 50 countries in Africa, the least developed countries account for 62% of the total. Despite all the challenges it currently faces, Africa remains a “continent of promise.”

Yesterday, my parents and I went to the Badaling Wildlife Park.
When we got there, we first went to the beast area. In the beast zone, we saw a variety of animals, such as white tigers, wolves, brown bears, Siberian tigers, sun bears, African lions and other animals.
The most fun one is the sun bear, because the sun bear will mix it with bottled drinks or mineral water. And if the bottle of water is almost finished by him, he will tilt the bottle up to drink.
Then we went to the non-beast area. In the non-beast area, we saw a variety of animals, such as: zebras, monkeys, giraffes, elephants, swans, camels, sika deer, peacocks and other animals.
The most interesting ones are the little monkeys. These trail monkeys all live on Monkey Mountain. As long as someone throws food and the monkey king is looking for it, other little monkeys will not dare to come near.
My parents and I also fed carrots and chocolate to the little monkeys. Through this trip, I gained a lot of knowledge about humans and animals, and it also brought me a lot of happiness. 6. A 500-word essay describing the scenery of Africa
This morning, when I was studying in the English class, it suddenly started raining heavily outside. I thought to myself: What can I do? The alley back home must be very dirty! My heart suddenly jumped. It was in this uneasiness that get out of class ended. So, I went downstairs and saw my grandpa waiting for me! Like an airplane, I rushed to my grandfather at a speed of 180 miles per second and said to him: "You are really my savior!" I couldn't wait to get in the car. Grandpa rode very fast, and in just a few minutes he reached the sandy and gravel area, which was the only way home. Oh my god, it's finally here. My heart was frightened like a little rabbit trying to escape, and it suddenly reached my throat.
As soon as the car turned a corner, the scene in front of me surprised me. This turned out to be scarier than I thought. The sand in the small alley has been washed to low places, the stones are uneven, and there are many large pits and ditches. I was so scared that I held my hands tightly, closed my eyes, and pressed my face against my grandfather, like a "wooden man", not daring to move. I prayed silently in my heart: Be sure to be steady and ride slowly, don't knock me off... Suddenly, there was a "crash" sound, and my grandpa drove the car into a big puddle. Water splashed all over the car and there were little mud spots. The car was still swaying, as if it was practicing "floating on water"! But not only did it not float, it also made my head buzz. Just as I was about to sit up, my grandpa rode the car onto a big rock. I was pushed up like a "bouncy ball" and fell to the edge of the back seat. It hit me so hard that I almost broke my bones. I said to my grandpa: "Be careful, you almost fell off me." Grandpa said: "There is a big mud pit ahead. I may not be able to ride through it even if I have 35 years of driving experience, so be careful, if you fall you will end up in Africa." Human!” I thought to myself: I don’t want to be African. How dark and not pretty at all. If I fall, I will lose my appearance. The more I thought about it, the more scared I became, so I hugged my grandpa tightly. As soon as I rode into the pit, the mud was like a "follower", making the wheels slippery, moving left and right. I screamed, and my grandfather became even more nervous. He looked at the "terrain" carefully, trying to find the best path. It took a lot of effort for my grandfather to ride the car out of the muddy alley. Riding downstairs, my grandpa returned home like a majestic general!
I secretly made up my mind to never walk on this muddy path again! 7. An urgent 800-word essay describing an insect
Today, Teacher Zhuang gave us a special assignment: say "I love you" to dad or mom.
After returning home and finishing my homework. I just kept thinking in the room: Should I say it or not? Just as I was hesitating, the past came to mind again: It was stormy that afternoon.
School was over, because I didn’t bring an umbrella and my mother was sick at home and couldn’t come to pick me up. I had to take shelter from the rain in front of the school and wait for the rain to lighten up before going home. But after waiting for more than ten minutes, the rain not only stopped falling but became heavier and heavier.
Just as I was about to go home, I suddenly saw a person walking towards me.
Gradually the figure is getting closer and closer to me, ah! Isn't that mom? I saw my mother coming to my side and stroking my head, "Yueyue, are you okay? Are you cold?" Tears moistened my eyes. My mother was sick and braved the wind and rain to send me an umbrella. She didn't care, but she greeted me with greetings. I threw myself into my mother's arms: Mom, my good mother! Thinking of my mother's meticulous care for me in the past, I finally made up my mind to say "I love you!" to my mother. "Xin——" The doorbell rang, my mother must be back, why not take the opportunity to say it.
So I hurried to open the door for my mother. My mother smiled when she saw me and said, "Yueyue, you're back! Have you finished your homework?" I said, "Yes, it's done."
"Then I'm going to cook." Mom happily patted my shoulder.
"Mom, I have something to tell you." I said hurriedly when I saw that my mother was leaving.
"Then tell me." "Oh, Mom, I...I...I want to tell you, I...that...that, I want to eat beef today."
Me After hemming and hawing for a long time, a few words came out of his mouth that were not what he expected. "If you want to eat, just say so. Why are you hesitating? I'll do it."
I hurried back to the room and closed the door with a "snap". Blame yourself: Hey, why can’t I always say it? Isn't it just saying "I love you"? Why do I feel so hard? No, if you don't say it, you won't have a chance.
I hurriedly looked out from the crack of the door. My mother was cooking. Let’s talk now. I sneaked up to my mother like a thief. When she saw me coming, she asked, "What's going on?" I lowered my head and said with a blush, "Mom, I...I love you."
Mom touches Touched my forehead and said, "Are you okay? Do you have a fever?" "No, Mom, I love you, I really mean it." I mustered up the courage to say it again, but I felt my heart beating "plop, plop", as if Almost jumped out of my chest.
I saw my mother was stunned at first, and a happy expression immediately overflowed on her face. She hugged me tightly, and tears of excitement filled her eyes. "My daughter has grown up and become sensible. Mom is really great." I'm so happy!" During dinner, my mother kept picking up food for me. Halfway through the meal, my mother suddenly asked me, "Why did you think of this?" I said, "It's an assignment assigned by the teacher." Oh, that’s it.”
Obviously, my mother was a little disappointed. I quickly said: "Mom, don't be like this. It is natural for children to love their parents, and it is also natural for them to express love to their parents. Even if the teacher did not assign this homework, I think I would say this."
"Really?" "Yeah" Mom hugged me tightly again. At night, my mother tossed and turned, too excited to fall asleep, but I fell asleep early. 8. A 300-word synopsis essay on "The Nanny Python"
I like to read Grandpa Shen Shixi's animal novels. Every animal story he writes is very touching, but my favorite is "The Nanny Python".
There was a couple who had a son. But because they are busy at work, they want to find a nanny to help them take care of their children.
With the help of their friends, they found a "free nanny" who didn't need a salary - a python. Under the careful care of Nanny Boang, their children grew up day by day.
Due to the long-term close contact, the nanny python took care of the owner's children as her own. Wherever this kid goes, he follows.
One time, when the couple went out to do errands, they put the child in the cradle and gave it to the nanny Python to take care of. A red jackal wanted to eat the child, but the nanny python wrapped its neck and body around it. Finally, the red jackal was strangled to death by the nanny python.
There are many touching stories about this nanny python, but the one that moved me the most is: the couple took their child and secretly left the nanny python, but the nanny python could never forget the child. .
He neither ate nor drank, and kept holding a piece of clothing that the child had worn as a child in his mouth, and finally starved to death.
After reading this story, I learned that the vicious boa constrictor also has a kind side. Nanny Python faithfully protected the child from the beginning to the end.
It can be seen how much it likes this child.
