　　In Chinese culture,tigers are considered as the king of all beasts(野兽).Tigers are regarded as fearless creatures.That’s why in China you can see pictures of tigers on the walls of temples and houses to avoid accidents and danger.
　　Tigers have an important cultural meaning not just in China,but across Asia.
　　As they mostly live in Asia,for many people in the West, they have become a cultural symbol of Eastern countries.For example,strong economies(经济体) in Singapore,Korea,China’s Hong Kong and Taiwan were called “The Four Asian Tigers”.In the book Life of Pi,Canadian writer Yann Martel chose a Bengal tiger as the partner for Indian boy Pi on his adventure(冒险) in the Pacific Ocean.
　　Instead of tigers,lions are considered as the king of all beasts in the West.Brave soldiers were given the name “the lion”.In Europe,the animal is a national emblem(徽章) for England as well as for Norway,Spain,Belgium and 13 other countries.
　　But in the West,tigers are also seen as a very powerful animal.In English,if you want someone to calm down,you can say to them, “easy tiger”.Another famous phrase is: “Eye of the Tiger”,which means fearless and strength.
　　Just like tigers play the role of a symbol of protection in Chinese culture,we can only hope that more people can learn about tigers and help protect them and their living places from further destruction(破坏).
