Would you be able to sleep with one eye open?Dolphins(海豚) can. When they sleep, only half of the brain goes to sleep. They sleep with one eye open to stay safe. Half of the brain sleeps for about two hours before the other half of the brain gets a chance to sleep. Sometimes, dolphins will keep swimming while they are sleeping.
Dolphins are not fish—they are mammals(哺乳动物). These mammals have lungs. And they don’t have gills(鳃) like fish. They are also warm-blooded and have to go out of the water to get air into their lungs. Dolphins don’t lay eggs. Their young drink milk from their mothers. Dolphins are one of the smartest animals in the world.

There are many stories about how they s... people out of water. They are able to solve many problems like humans(人类). They can even use tools to catch fish. But their cleverness doesn’t end there.
Dolphins can also pass on anything they learn to other dolphins, like interesting fishing skills. They talk with each other in many ways. They use different sounds to talk to each other. Dolphins know the “voices” of other dolphins and even know exactly who is making which sound. Another thing that shows their cleverness is that they can also know themselves in a mirror(镜子) and check different parts of their bodies in it.

(山东东营中考改编)Amy Phelps loves giraffes very much. “My parents know the giraffe keeper at the zoo,” she says. “He shows me the magic of giraffes. They are friendly, clever and funny.” To follow her dream of caring for giraffes, Amy becomes a zookeeper when she finishes college.
Her daily work starts with saying hello to each giraffe and cleaning up after them. It can be tiring but makes her happy. “It’s not my favourite part of the job,” says Amy. “But I like the exercise.”

Feeding(喂) giraffes is a big part of her job. A giraffe eats more than 60 kg of food every day, including branches(树枝), leaves and fruit. Besides, Amy takes care of their health. She is amazed by how smart they are and teaches them different tricks, such as recognizing parts of their bodies and even painting with a brush.
Amy not only cares for the giraffes in the zoo, but also protects those in the wild. She works as a researcher to make sure Africa’s giraffes will not disappear(消失). Besides, she raises money for the WWF on World Giraffe Day every year.
