A CAMEL RIDE

​​Wow, Grandpa! This camel ride is so fun! It's like riding a horse, isn't it? 太哇，爺爺！這次騎駱駝真有趣！這就像騎馬，不是嗎？

It sure is. But you won't see many horses in the desert! 確實是。但在沙漠中你不會看到很多馬！

Why's that? Is it too hot for them? 為什麼？對他們來說太熱了嗎？

That's right, Emily! And it would be difficult for them to find food. But camels can eat almost anything — even cactuses! 沒錯，艾米麗！而且他們很難找到食物。但駱駝幾乎可以吃任何東西——甚至包括仙人掌！
