21、Here comes 2022, the Year of the Tiger! For Chinese people, the tiger is the king of all the animals. So in Chinese culture, tigers stand for being brave, strong and powerful! That’s why in China, you can see pictures of tigers on the walls of temples（寺庙） and houses. They are to protect these places from bad luck.

In ancient times, some great generals（将军）were called “tiger generals”. Usually, generals would be given a tiger-shaped piece called hufu to send soldiers（士兵）. Tigers also have a place in the lives of Chinese people. Chinese babies often wear tiger hats and shoes which are made in the shape of a tiger’s head. Parents hope their kids will grow to be as strong as little tigers. People make cloth tigers during the Dragon Boat Festival. It is said that the “tigers” could “eat up” the bad animals and keep illness away. In some parts of China, people make tiger-shaped buns（馍）when the new year comes.

Westerners also consider tigers as a symbol of Asia. Singapore, South Korea, China’s Hong Kong and Taiwan were called “The Four Asian Tigers”. In the book Life of Pi, the Canadian writer chose a tiger as the partner for the Indian boy Pi on his adventure（历险）. French fashion brand（品牌）KENZO takes the tiger as its main pattern when it tries to show Eastern elements（元素）.

Tigers are my favorite animals. If you ask my mom, she’ll tell you that my best-loved toy while growing up was my toy tiger, which I still treasure dearly to this day. As a young animal lover, I felt so sad that they were endangered and I wanted to help protect them.
