CLASSES OF ANIMALS

Exercise 1 Read the following paragraphs with your teacher.

Tomorrow we will go to the zoo. At the zoo we will see many classes of animals. Mammals are animals that are warm-blooded. Their body temperatures are always the same. They develop inside their mother`s body. They drink their mother`s milk. Man is a mammal. Dogs, elephants, monkeys, and lions are other mammals.

We will see birds. Birds are also warm-blooded, but lay eggs. They live on land, in trees, or near water. Eagles, parrots, and peacocks are birds.

We will see also reptiles. Reptiles are cold-blooded. The temperature of their blood changes with the climate. Baby reptiles hatch from eggs. They have scaly skin. Snakes and turtles are reptiles.

We will see amphibians, too. They can live in water and on land. Frogs are amphibians.

Then we will see fish. Fish live in the water. Sharks and tuna are different types of fish. Don`t be fooled: whales are mammals!

We will see insects such as spiders, ants, and bees. We`ll have a good time!
