It’s said that goldfish only have a seven-second memory. But recently, a 61 boy called Roy Stokes 62 an experiment to tell us that it is not true. He shows that the goldfish are 63 than we think.
“Animals can’t easily find their food 64 they have their memory,” said Roy.
65 out the truth, he did the experiment in a small tank(缸). “I thought I had better get a red block (积木) and just feed goldfish next to it. Then I found one and every day I put 66 block in and spread food around it,” he said.
“At first they were a bit afraid of it, 67 by the end of the three weeks, they almost came before I put the food in.”
After 68 the fish alone for a week, Roy placed the red block in the tank again.
“They remembered quite well this time. They came earlier than before,” said Roy. The goldfish showed that they 69 not only store information, but also had the ability to get it back at a later date.
Culum Brown, a university professor, has studied fish behavior 70 more than ten years. “I really like Roy’s experiment,” said Professor Brown.

After getting some information about dinosaurs from the encyclopedia (百科全书), Mary got interested in these animals. She surfed the Internet and found a lot more about dinosaurs. Here’s what she wrote in her notebook.
General information
Millions of years ago, long before there were any people, there were dinosaurs. They existed (存在) on earth for about 165 million years and suddenly died out (灭绝) 65 million years ago.
Fun facts
Size
◆The largest dinosaurs were more than 30 meters long and up to 15 meters tall.
◆The smallest dinosaurs were about the size of a chicken and had very long tails. They ate insects (昆虫).
Egg
◆Most dinosaurs were hatched (孵化) from eggs.
◆The biggest dinosaur egg ever found was the size of a football.
◆There were egg-eating dinosaurs that stole eggs from other dinosaurs’ nests (巢穴).
Brain
◆A lot of dinosaurs have big heads, but they didn’t have much brain inside. Most of the space was taken up with muscle (肌肉) and bones instead.
Tail
◆Dinosaurs that used their tails to beat their enemies had four feet and ate plants.
◆Dinosaurs that used their tails for balance (平衡) had two feet and two small arms, and they were often meat-eaters.
Discovery
◆From looking at bones, scientists can figure out (弄清楚) the shape of the dinosaur’s body.
◆There were more than 800 different kinds of dinosaurs.
Conclusion
We can only know about the lives of dinosaurs from the fossil (化石), eggs and footprints they left behind. But we still don’t know how they sounded, how they behaved, what colors they were and so on.
Oh, my God! Dinosaurs are the most mysterious animals in the world!
Mary’s notebook
General information Dinosaurs lived on earth for about 165 million years and suddenly 71 existing 65 million years ago.
Fun facts Size: The smallest dinosaurs were as 72 as a chicken and had long tails. They ate insects. Eggs: Some dinosaurs stole and ate other dinosaurs’ eggs.
