Suzy: Not much, Mr Wu. I’m afraid of some animals.
Mr Wu: Really Animals are very interesting. Look at the giraffe. It has a very long neck, but there are only seven bones in it, just like ours. Also, giraffes can sleep standing up.
Suzy: Oh, that’s interesting. I’d like to see a sleeping giraffe one day. But I think I’m still afraid of some animals like snakes.
Mr Wu: Don’t be afraid. Most snakes are shy. They sleep for months in winter when you see a snake just leave it alone.
Suzy: That's good advice.
Mr Wu: It’s a good tip for all animals. Leave them alone. If they want to say hello to you, they will.
Suzy: That’s good to know. Thanks, Mr Wu.
Tapescript
B Suzy found an article about how humans get design ideas from some animals. Read the article and answer the questions below.
Radar allows ships to “see” things around them and travel safely. The idea comes from bats. Bats make sounds, and then listen for the echo. This echo tells the bats about things around them.
Then there are planes. Humans looked at birds and studied their wings. Then they had the idea of planes. Planes have a pair of big wings, just like birds.
Animals and design
Humans have a lot to thank animals for. For example, we get design ideas from animals to help us make new things.

Lucky: my amazing animal friend
I have a pet dog named Lucky. He is a white puppy with short, soft fur. His cute little face is adorned with big, round eyes that sparkle like stars, and a small black nose that is always sniffing around curiously.
Lucky has a diverse diet. He mainly eats dog food, but he also has a special fondness for some pieces of chicken, beef, and carrots.
He is a very active and playful dog. He often runs around the house, and sometimes he chases his own tail, which makes me laugh a lot. He also loves playing with his toys, especially a small ball. When I come home, he jumps up and down and licks my hands, showing his great joy to see me.
Lucky and I have so much fun together. Whether it’s playing games or just relaxing at home, he is always there with me. I think he is the best pet in the world, and I’ m so lucky to have him as my animal friend.
