03 探索恐龍
●導(dǎo)讀頁
A long, long time ago
Before you were born – even before your parents and your grandparents were born – in fact, millions of years
before any person at all was born – lived the dinosaurs. They were cool creatures, but you can’t still see them
today.
很久很久以前
在你出生之前——甚至在你父母和你的祖父母出生之前——事實(shí)上，
在任何人出生的數(shù)百萬年之前，恐龍生活在這世上。
它們是很酷的生物，但現(xiàn)在你已經(jīng)看不到它們了。

Dinosaur Facts 恐龍二三事
Flying and swimming
While the dinosaurs were the rulers on land, there were other prehistoric reptiles in the skies and the seas. Pterosaurs
were a common type of flying reptile. One type was pteranodon, with a beak like a bird. Another, with teeth, was called
pterodactyl. Giant sea creatures such as plesiosaurs and ichthyosaurus had fins and flippers for swimming.
飛翔與游泳
雖說恐龍?jiān)顷懙厣系慕y(tǒng)治者，但空中和海里也存在過其它史前爬行動(dòng)物。
飛龍是一種常見的飛行類爬行動(dòng)物。
有一種類型是無齒翼龍，它的喙使它長得像鳥一樣。
另一種有牙齒的稱為翼指龍。巨型海洋生物，如蛇頸龍和魚龍等，有鰭和蹼，便于游泳。
pterosaurs 飛龍
pteranodon 無齒翼龍
pterodactyl 翼指龍
Pteranodon (pterosaur) 無齒翼龍（飛龍）

Dinosaur king
Tyrannosaurus rex was a type of large carnivore that lived around 68 million years ago. Its name ‘rex’ means ‘king’ and
it was a mighty beast. It had the strongest bite of any predator living on land and would fight against even heavily
armoured dinosaurs.
恐龍之王
霸王龍是一種大型食肉動(dòng)物，生活在 6800 萬年以前。
它的名字'rex'意為'國王'，是很強(qiáng)大的野獸。
它在陸地上所有掠食者中擁有最強(qiáng)的撕咬力，甚至可以用來與重甲恐龍搏殺一番。
Sabre-tooth shows up
After the dinosaurs disappeared, another creature took over as king: a sabre-toothed cat called smilodon.
It had enormous front teeth and hunted for other mammals in the forests.
劍齒出現(xiàn)了
恐龍消失后，另一種生物成為王者：
一種長著劍齒、名為劍齒虎的貓科動(dòng)物。
它擁有碩大的門牙，在森林中捕捉其它哺乳動(dòng)物為食。
