阅读下面短文，用英语回答短文后的问题。
Do you know magpies Magpies are as much an important part of Beijing as the Palace Museum and Beijing Duck. But how much do you know about this type of bird
In the Chinese culture, magpies are also called xique, which means “bird of happiness”. People believe that seeing magpies can bring them good luck. The birds even have a special job in the Chinese story of the Qixi Festival. It’s said that magpies would form the bridge in the sky for Niulang and Zhin so that they got to get together once a year. As a result, magpies stand for true love and happiness too.
Magpies have black and white feathers with slightly blue tails. With their special “chachacha” sounds from early morning till night, it is not difficult for birdwatchers to notice them. You can always see them chatting on the roof or in the branches (树枝).
Magpies have some very interesting living habits. They always live around humans, because they mainly live on the food we throw away. In winter, many magpies turn to a more plant-rich diet. Their diet includes around 60% vegetables. Sometimes they may look for food on the ground but not eat it right away. Instead, they will save the food for the future.
Even more surprisingly, they will stay around the dead birds and make sad sounds. It is just like they are holding a funeral (葬礼). All these unbelievable things lead some people to believe that magpies may be the cleverest of all birds.
Well, Beijing’s noisiest bird is also one of its smartest ones. Maybe these little birds can really bring a little luck too.

A few restaurants still have some wild animals as delicious food on the table. I think it’s really cruel and terrible. Wild animals are an important part of nature. We should protect them instead of eating them.
As a wildlife lover, I can do many things to protect them. For example, I can join wildlife protection organizations and take part in their activities. I can also spread the knowledge about wildlife protection to more people through social media or public speeches. I believe that if more people understand the importance of protecting wildlife, they will take action to protect them.
In addition, I think it’s important to teach people how to live together with animals peacefully. We can start by respecting their habitats and not destroying them. We can also avoid using products that are made from endangered animals. By doing these things, we can create a better world for both humans and animals.
