Tapescript

Millie:We must decide what kind of wild animal to help.

Daniel:OK.Let's read this book about animals.

Millie:Look,this is a tiger.It looks big and strong.

Daniel:Yes.Tigers are the largest living cats in the world.I love their bright eyes.And look at their orange fur with dark stripes.They look so beautiful.

Millie:Tigers can run very fast,but they can only run for a short while.They're able to swim and climb too.They prefer to live alone when they grow up.

Daniel:Do you like tigers,Millie?

Millie:Yes,but they aren't my favourite animals.I like wolves best.

Daniel:Really?

Millie:Yes.Wolves aren't very big and they have thick fur.They can see,hear and smell things far away.They can also run for hours without stopping.

Daniel:Wow,that's amazing!

Millie:Yes,and they often work as a team.Also,they only kill for food,not for fun.

Daniel:What kind of food do wolves eat?

Millie:They eat many animals.Sometimes they eat a little fruit too.

Daniel:Oh,that's interesting!
