5 . Many people think that the dinosaur is the biggest animal that ever lived. They are wrong. The world’s biggest animal is still living, and it lives in the sea. It is called the Blue Whale. The Blue Whale can be as long as 30 meters and weighs as much as 1,000 kilos. The largest dinosaur weighed only 500 kilos.
The whale is not only the world’s biggest animal, but also is one of the cleverest. We know that whales can talk to each other though we do not know what they are saying. We do not yet know how to speak to a whale. One day perhaps we shall learn to speak to whales, and then they will be able to tell us about themselves.
Whales are part of a family of animals called cetaceans(鲸类动物). They are animals that live in the sea. But unlike fish, they do not lay eggs. They have live babies in the same way as cows and cats do, and give their babies milk.
There is a famous White Whale called Moby Dick. He is in a story written by the American writer, Herman Melville. In this story, a sailor called Captain Ahab spends a lot of time trying to find and kill Moby Dick. Sadly, there are not many kinds of whales left. Men have killed them for thousands of years for food and other things. However, there are now laws to stop people killing most kinds of whales, so perhaps there will be more of them in the years to come.

Cats don’t seem very friendly. Unlike dogs, cats don’t often play with people. However, a new study shows that cats like people just as much as dogs.
US researchers（研究者）invited 117 cat owners to take a six-minute test. They walked into a new room with their pets. After two minutes, they left the room. After another two minutes, they came back. About two-thirds of the cats came to greet their owners right away when they came back. The cats then went back to looking around the room, but still came back to their owners now and then.
The cats saw their owners as a source of security（安全的来源）in a new place. In the same test, 58 percent of dogs acted just like the cats.

A school bus is used to take children to and from school. In the USA, about 350,000 school buses take more than 25 million children to and from school. Yellow became the color of school buses in the USA in 1939. Dr. Frank got the good idea. He said it was easy for people to see yellow buses and the black letters on them in the early morning or late afternoon. That would make children safer.
There are not many school buses in Britain, and they are not yellow. They have trackers（追踪器）on them. The trackers let parents know where the school bus is and if their kids are on the bus.
Kindergarten（幼儿园）is a difficult time for some kids. It’s the first time for them to go away from their parents. To make kids love their school, Japanese kindergartens and schools have colorful buses. The buses can easily make children want to take them, and then, go to school. Even some parents want to take them, too!
School buses are becoming more and more popular in China now. It saves a lot of time for students to take a school bus.
