The dolphin
Can dolphins talk? Maybe they can’t talk with words, but they talk with sounds.
They show their feeling with sounds.
Dolphins travel in a group. We call a group of fish a “school”. They don ’t study,
but they travel together. Dolphins are mammals, not fish, but they swim together in a
school.
Dolphins talk to the other dolphins in the school. They give information. They tell
when they are happy or sad or afraid. They say “Welcome” when a dolphin comes back
to the school. They talk when they play.
They make a few sounds above water. They make many more sounds under
water. People cannot hear these sounds because they are very, very high. Scientists make
tapes of the sounds and study them.
Sometimes people catch a dolphin for a large aquarium. People can watch
dolphins in a show. Dolphins don’t like to be away from their school in an aquarium.
They are sad and lonely.
There are many stories about dolphins. They help people. Sometimes they save
somebody’s life. Dolphin meat is good, but people don ’t like to kill them. They say that
dolphins bring good luck. Many people believe this.

hundreds of years and almost every country has a national football team. A football
match consists of two teams with eleven players on each side. Each team is on one half of
the pitch at the start of the game. When a referee blows his whistle, the game begins.
