The Rats and The Elephants

Once upon a time there lived a group of mice under a tree in peace. However, a group of elephants crossing the jungle unknowingly destroyed the homes of all the rats. Many of them were even crushed to death.

Then the king of rats decided to approach the elephant's chief and request him to guide his herd through another route. On hearing the sad story, the elephant's king apologized and agreed to take another route. And so the life of the rats were saved.

One day elephant-hunters came to the jungle and trapped a group of elephants in huge nets. Then the elephant king suddenly remembered the king of the rats. He summoned on of the elephants of his herd, which had not been trapped, to go seek help from the king and told him about the trapped elephants.

The rat king immediately took his entire group of rats and they cut open the nets which had trapped the elephant's herd. The elephant’s herd was totally set free. They danced with joy and thanked the rats.

A rabbit is a small furry mammal with a short tail and pointed ears. Rabbits live in burrows in the ground. Each burrow is the home of a single family. The first fossils which can be attributed to this family came from North America, but now they are found in every part of the world. Compared to its small body, rabbit has large-sized ears. A rabbit is a weak and timid animal and is always surrounded by many enemies. Therefore, nature has gifted it with large ears to help it to hear even the fun of drop sound. The large area of the ear catches almost every sound wave produced in the air and transfers into the inner ear. This makes the rabbit to detect its enemies in time and run to safety zones. You must have noticed that a rabbit washes its ears  by repeatedly licking its forepaws and rubbing them over the surface of its ears. It does this in order to keep its ears clean, and also to take into its mouth natural oil which surrounds the ear surface. This oil is important in forming vitamin D which is necessary for the growth of healthy bones. If the rabbit is not allowed to form this, it will develop rickets.

A rabbit is a small furry mammal with a short tail and pointed ears. Rabbits live in burrows in the ground. Each burrow is the home of a single family. The first fossils which can be attributed to this family came from North America, but now they are found in every part of the world. Compared to its small body, rabbit has large-sized ears. A rabbit is a weak and timid animal and is always surrounded by many enemies. Therefore, nature has gifted it with large ears to help it to hear even the fun of drop sound. The large area of the ear catches almost every sound wave produced in the air and transfers into the inner ear. This makes the rabbit to detect its enemies in time and run to safety zones. You must have noticed that a rabbit washes its ears  by repeatedly licking its forepaws and rubbing them over the surface of its ears. It does this in order to keep its ears clean, and also to take into its mouth natural oil which surrounds the ear surface. This oil is important in forming vitamin D which is necessary for the growth of healthy bones. If the rabbit is not allowed to form this, it will develop rickets.

The second paragraph tells us about ….

A.    The functions of the rabbits’ ears

B.    The enemies of the rabbits

C.   The safe zones of rabbits

D.   The rabbits’ invasion

Crocodiles, and their relatives, the alligators, are the largest of the living reptiles. They live in swamps and rivers in warm parts of the world.

Crocodiles have heavy bodies covered with bony scales. Their tales are long and powerful, and they wave them from side to side when swimming. Their jaws have sharp teeth.

Crocodiles hunt fish, turtles, birds and water mammals. They usually attack from under the water. Sometimes crocodiles eat land mammals. They float in the water with only the tops of their heads showing. When an animal comes to the river bank to drink, the crocodile swims quickly towards it underwater. The crocodile then pulls the animal into the water with its strong jaws and drowns it.

Crocodiles lay white eggs in nests or holes in the ground. As soon as the young hatch out of eggs they are able to run and catch their own food. Many kinds of crocodiles are becoming extinct because people hunt them for their skins.

Salamander is an amphibian that has four legs, a long and slender body, and a long tail. Despite their lizard like appearance, salamanders are most closely related to the smaller amphibious lizard, they are called the newt.

Salamanders are found all over the world generally in more temperate climate and their habitat is in near water area. All species of salamander are aquatic or semi aquatic due to their amphibious nature and permeable skin. They are carnivore reptile so the food is some kind like small fish, small frog and the other small things.

There are more than 700 species of recognized salamander worldwide from the smaller species of newt to the Chinese giant salamander which can grow to nearly 2 meters long. All of salamanders look very similar in appearance but as with lizards, different species of salamander can have fewer limbs than normal.
