Listening Practice 4

Mr. Wood: Good afternoon, students. Today’s class is about animals that live in cold countries. Who knows some animals that live in cold countries? Yes, go ahead Lisa.

Lisa: Whales, seals, and penguins live in Antarctica.

Mr. Wood: Very good. How can they survive in the cold weather?

Lisa: They have layers of fat and thick skin that protect them from the arctic climate.

Mr. Wood: Excellent!

Lisa: Not only that! There’s more. Penguins gather together in large groups and stand next to each other to stay warm.

Mr. Wood: Very good, Lisa! Animals in cold countries have adapted themselves to the cold weather in order to survive.

Cathy: Does that mean we will grow thick layers of fat on our body like penguins if we live in Antarctica?

Class: No, Cathy!
