What's your favourite animal? I like koalas the most. Funny you should say that, I like kangaroos. How very antipodean of us! I think kangaroos are funny looking animals. Kangaroos are part of a special category of animals, called marsupials. Kangaroos usually have small deer-like heads with wide set eyes and binocular vision, prominent upright ears which rotate to hear in all directions. Yes, and a moderately long muzzle with a split upper lip, short forelimbs with mobile grasping forepaws that can hold food, open its pouch and box just like a boxer! They are very skilled at using their little arms! And when they have a little baby in the pouch it looks adorable. A joey. A what? A joey, that's what a baby kangaroo's called. Another interesting thing about them is their long hindlimbs, with the characteristic long narrow feet which gives them the name of "macropod" or "big-foot".
K: 卡伦 C: 夏洛特 K：你最喜欢什么动物？我最喜欢的是考拉。 C：说起来还真有意思。我喜欢的是袋鼠。我们真是截然不同啊！ K：我认为袋鼠的样子看上去很好玩。 C：它是一种特殊的动物，叫做有袋动物。 K：它的小脑袋象麋鹿，但眼睛大且双眼都有视力，耳朵高高竖起，还可以转动以便听到四面八方的声音。 C：是的，它的口鼻长度中等，上唇裂开，前肢短小。它前爪灵活，可以抓事物，打开袋子，并且象拳击手一样打架。 K：它们还很善于运用短臂！它们的育儿袋里放着小袋鼠时看起来非常可爱。 C：一只幼兽。 K：一只什么？ C：一只幼兽，也就是小袋鼠。袋鼠的另外一个有意思的地方就是它们的后腿很长，而脚是又长又细，因此又被称作“长脚”或“大脚”。
