He was trapped(给困住了)! He started to shout, but no one heard him. Then Mr. Coates remembered that it was a holiday in England. No one was going to come to work until Tuesday!

The whole class went to the zoo for a field trip. The next day, the teacher asked the children to write a report(报告)about what they learned. Read the two reports below.

The first report is from Ryan.

I learned about the giant tortoise(龟). It was so big that the guide let us sit on its back. Some tortoises live to be over 100 years old! That’s older than my grandpa!

The slowest-moving mammal is the three-toed sloth(树懒). It hangs from the trees and eats fruit. Some sloths sleep more than 20 hours a day. What a lazy animal!

I thought the albino alligator(钝吻鳄)was really cool. It wasn’t green. It was completely white all over. It was born that way.

The second report is from Jessica.

The tallest animal on earth is the giraffe. It eats leaves from the tops of the trees. Giraffes come from Africa.

I learned about an albino alligator. It was white instead of green. The guide told us that it was born without the coloring of other alligators.
