2.Dolphins (海豚) are one of the cleverest animals in the world.We may hear of many stories about how dolphins save people out of water. Dolphins often eat fish and some other sea animals.A dolphin with a weight of 200 kg to 250 kg will eat 10 kg to 25 kg of fish every day.They like to swim with other dolphins and usually hunt (捕獵) in groups. Dolphins have very good hearing.They use it to find things under the water.Many scientists also believe dolphins can even talk to each other through a special whistle (哨聲).People from different areas don't speak the same language.Just like people,dolphins' whistles have many kinds.One day we may understand dolphins' whistles,and then they will be able to tell us about themselves. Dolphins live in the sea,but they are not a kind of fish and they don't lay eggs.They have babies in the same way as cows and cats do,and give their babies milk.A female (雌性) dolphin has a baby every two to three years. Dolphins are very friendly.Sadly,there are not many kinds of dolphins left.People killed them for many years for food and other things.Now it's time to stop this and perhaps there will be more of them in the years to come.

16.Traveling to another country is exciting and fun.But if you don't learn about local customs,your trip could become a nightmare with misunderstandings and even trouble.Here are some cultural taboos(禁忌)in certain countries to help prevent things like that.Let's take a look and fit in with local culture. US One of the traditional customs for Americans is to tip jye.ai.People from non-tipping countries may forget to tip.And they may find themselves in an embarrassing situation.Also,pay attention when you have a conversation with Americans.As a tourist in the US,it is not polite to ask people questions like "How old are you?" and "How much do you make?" Mexico In Mexico,bringing an expensive gift to someone's home is a no-no.It could be seen as a bribe(賄賂).Something simple like flowers or a dessert are good gifts.But you should avoid taking along marigolds (金盞花) or red flowers,because in Mexican culture,they symbolize death and can be connected with witchcraft(巫術(shù)).To local people,white flowers are a good gift. Britain Be careful about hand gestures when you visit Britain.If you make the V sign with your palm(手掌)facing you,the locals may get angry.That's because this gesture means the same as the middle finger.It's an insult(侮辱).It is safe to hold off on hand gestures to prevent any misunderstandings. Also,Britons are known for queuing.From the supermarket to the subway,queues are very common in Britain.Usually a British person spends six months of their life in queues.If you jump the queue in Britain,you may upset them.
