有关动物的英语对话

A: You know,besides fishes,there are many other types of sea animals.They include the sponges,corals,lobsters,crabs,sea stars,sea urchins and sea cucumbers.Most of them live at the bottom of the sea,or on the seabed.

A: 你知道，除了鱼之外，还有许多其他种类的海生动物。它们有海绵、珊瑚、龙虾、蟹、海星、海胆和海参。大多数海生动物都在海底生活。

B: Yes.The shallow seabed near the seashore is the best part of the sea for animal life.

B: 是的。海滨附近的浅海是适宜海生动物生活的比较好地方。

A: Also,sunlight reaches all the way down to the seabed and the waters are rich in mineral salts.Food of all kinds is plentiful in this region,too.

A: 此外，阳光直射海底且这儿的海水富含矿物盐。这里各种各样的食物都十分充足。

B: But as the sea gets deeper the number of animals living on the seabed becomes less.Food is scarce because very little sunlight can reach the seabed and so no plants can grow in these depths.

B: 大海越深生活在那里的动物就越少。由于阳光无法照射到海底，海底植物便无法在那儿生长，因而那儿的食物很少。

A: Sponges,like corals,are made up of very tiny animals that live together in groups or colonies.All these animals living together in one colony help to build up a single skeleton,which is stiff and hard when dry,and soft when wet.

A: 像珊瑚一样，海绵是由一些成群生活在一起的微小动物构成的。这些成群生活在一起的动物形成了一个基干，干燥的时候这个基干很坚硬，而潮湿的时候却又变得很柔软。

B: Oh,the skeleton is just the sponge which is used for washing things and sometimes for bathing.

B: 噢，这基干就是海绵本身，可以用来洗东西，还可以用来洗澡。

A: Yes,that's it.Corals are usually found on rocky shores but they can also be found on the seabed.The prettiest corals are found between depths of 30 to 45 metres below the sea.

A: 对。珊瑚通常生长在多石的岸边，不过，海底也有。最漂亮的珊瑚生长在大海下面30～45米深处之间。

B: Crabs,lobsters and shrimps belong to a group of animals called the crustaceans.Lobsters and shrimps differ from crabs in that their bodies are long and end in fan like tails.

B: 蟹、龙虾和虾是属于叫做甲壳纲类的动物。龙虾和虾与蟹不同的是，它们体长，而且长着扇形尾巴。

A: You're right.The crab's body is usually protected by a hard shell.

A: 你说得对。蟹的身体通常由坚硬的甲壳保护着。

B: The hermit crab is interesting because it has no shell of its own.It protects itself by using the empty shell of a dead whelk.

B: 寄居蟹很有趣。因为它没有自己的甲壳。它是利用死蛾螺的空壳来保护自身的。

A: Very funny,isn't it? Well,the sea star,the sea urchin and the sea cucumber belong to a small but interesting group of sea animals.sea-star are animals which look like stars because they have five or more short arms growing from the centre outwards.

A: 很有趣，不是吗? 唔，海星、海胆和海参属于很小但却十分有趣的海生动物种类。海星看起来像星星，因为它们身上从中心向外生长着5个或更多的短小肢干。

B: And the body of a Sea star is soft and lies inside a hard covering.Sea stars are of different colours and sizes,too.

B: 而且海星的身体很柔软，横卧在坚硬的外壳中。海星的颜色和大小也互不相同。

A: Like the sea stars,the sea urchins live inside hard,spiny shells.They do not have arms.Some of them are round,others are flat and some are heart shaped.

A: 如同海星一样，海胆也是生活在坚硬、多刺的外壳中的。它们没有肢干。有些海胆是圆形的，有些则是扁形的，还有的海胆长成心脏形。

B: Sea cucumbers are long hollow animals which have no skeletons.Some small ones may be one centimeter long and the larger ones may be as long as 30 centimeters.These animals usually crawl along the seabed or dig into the sand.

B: 海参是一种长形空心动物，它没有骨骼。短小的海参长一厘米，而大的海参可以长达30厘米。这些动物通常伏在海底爬行，或者钻进沙里。

A: Well,the sea horse is actually a kind of fish,too.Its body is made up of many bony rings.The sea horse gets its name because its head looks like a horse's head.It has a tube like mouth which it uses to suck in its food.The sea horse can only swim downward upwards downward in the water.It can't swim sideways,you know.

A: 唔，海马实际上也是一种鱼。其身体由很多骨环构成。由于这种动物的头如同马头，所以被叫做海马。海马的嘴如同一根管子，用来吸入食物。海马在水中只能上下浮游。你知道的，它不能平游。
