Hello everybody, welcome back to American Textbook Reading.
2
I'm Brian Stewart.
3
Are you guys ready to learn about animals?
4
Let's get started.
5
In this lesson, lesson one, we're going to learn what animals need to grow.
6
What animals need to grow.
7
So you will discover animals need food, they need shelter, they need oxygen, and they need water.
8
So all of these animals need these things in order to grow.
9
And if you think about it, we're animals too, right?
10
We also need these things in order to grow.
11
Let's talk about these things in more detail.
12
First of all, we saw that animals need shelter.
13
Shelter, of course, is a place where an animal can be safe.
14
This looks like a shelter, it looks like a tree, right?
15
But inside the tree is a narrow space where an animal can use it as its home.
16
Maybe a wolf or a fox can live in there.
17
I don't know about a bear, a bear is really big, so maybe this is a little small for a bear.
18
But this could be a good shelter for an animal to live in.
19
Nels need shelter because it rains, it gets cold, they need some type of home.
20
So a shelter is like a home.
21
And we all need a home, don't we?
22
We all need some place to be safe, where an animal can be safe.
23
Let's take a look at another thing.
24
Another thing is a nest.
25
A nest is kind of like a shelter too.
26
A nest is a place where birds live.
27
So a nest, as you can see in the tree here, birds make their homes high up in trees and it's a bird's shelter.
28
So a bird will use this, a nest, this is also a bird's shelter.
29
It is basically their home.
30
It protects them, it keeps them safe from animals walking around on the ground, right?
31
So mama bird can take care of her baby birds safely in a nest.
32
And that's their shelter.
33
Let's move on to the next one.
34
Okay, another thing that all animals need to grow is oxygen.
35
We need to breathe, right?
36
And we breathe oxygen.
37
Oxygen is a gas that is necessary for people and animals to live.
38
We need oxygen to breathe.
39
Oxygen has no color can't see it.
40
It's all around us.
41
In the room here, in the room where you are, there's oxygen in the air.
42
You can't see it, you can feel it.
43
If you go like this really quickly, you can feel the air and in the air is oxygen that we need to breathe.
44
Our bodies need oxygen.
45
If we're diving, for example, underwater, how do we get oxygen?
46
Well, we need to breathe through the equipment.
47
We need to breathe.
48
If we breathe that means to take in oxygen.
49
So even if we're underwater and we're scuba diving,
50
we have equipment that gives us oxygen so we can breathe underwater.
51
We're not fish, right?
52
We don't have gills, but we can use equipment to go underwater and swim around.
53
Looks like fun.
54
If you have a chance, try that out.
55
Try it out scuba diving.
56
Okay, next we have another verb, to hatch.
57
Now, some animals hatch.
58
To hatch means to come out of the egg.
59
Like this crocodile or alligator here is coming outside of the egg.
60
It's hatching.
61
Not all animals hatch.
62
Hatch means to come out of an egg.
63
Did you come out of an egg?
64
No, you didn't come out of an egg.
65
Mammals are born without eggs.
66
We're born live.
67
We're born live.
68
We don't have eggs when we come out of our mother's bodies, right?
69
We don't have eggs.
70
But some animals, like reptiles, birds, and some fish, they will come out of eggs.
71
They need to hatch.
72
Okay?
73
So, to hatch.
74
Another verb is to store.
75
Animals, some animals, will store things.
76
What will they store?
77
Store means to keep something for future use.
78
You've probably seen in the movies the squirrel, right?
79
The squirrel running around, and the squirrel is running after nuts, right?
80
N-U-T-S.
81
So squirrels will store nuts, and squirrels are kind of, you know, the little animals, the little furry animals with the big tail.
82
They will go and they will take nuts, and they won't eat them right away.
83
They'll put them in their shelter, in their home.
84
They will store them for when it's cold and when the winter, there's no food.
85
So they store, they keep something for future use.
86
They keep it for later.
87
Okay, so that's to store.
88
Another verb is to protect.
89
Some animals, of course all animals need protection, right?
90
Some animals have built-in protection.
91
Built-in, they have it as part of their bodies.
92
Built-in protection.
93
Built-in.
94
Built-in protection.
95
This shell is protecting the turtle.
96
It's very hard and the turtle will not be harmed because the shell protects the turtle.
97
Protect, of course, means to cover and to make something safe.
98
So if you look at this turtle, kind of an interesting character, he's very safe inside of his shell.
99
He is protected.
100
Let's move on.
101
Extinct.
102
When, if an animal is extinct, it is no longer in existence.
103
But think about that.
104
If all the animals of the same type are gone, they all die, then they are extinct.
105
What animals can you think of that have gone extinct?
106
Some very famous animals.
107
If you think of dinosaurs, D-I-N-O-S-A-U-R, S, dinosaurs.
108
Dinosaurs, this is a dinosaur.
109
There are no more dinosaurs in the world.
110
They are all extinct.
111
They are no longer in existence.
112
They've all died.
113
So we can say dinosaurs are extinct.
114
Okay?
115
Okay, let's take a look at our chart here.
116
We have a chart what animals need to live and we see different pictures here.
117
We see shelter.
118
This is a very cute little guy right inside the tree.
119
He's just looking out of his hole.
120
He's inside his home, right?
121
There's oxygen, there's water and there's food.
122
Let's take a look at this guy who's in his home.
123
He looks pretty cute.
124
Let's take a look at him closely.
125
Okay.
126
Oh, here we've got another, maybe his friend, squirrel, coming into a tree.
127
and this is where his home is.
128
See, that is a good picture of a squirrel.
129
And look at that, he has a nut.
130
He's storing nuts inside of his home, inside of his shelter.
131
So this is a very good video that shows us two things.
132
One, it shows us the shelter where the squirrel lives, that's his home, and it also shows us how the squirrel stores food.
133
You notice the squirrel went into his home to get a nut.
134
That's where he keeps or stores his food.
135
Okay, he's pretty cute, isn't he?
136
It looks like he's very hungry.
137
He keeps eating that nut very well.
138
But that's good, he is kind of turning it around.
139
Okay, squirrel, have you had enough?
140
Oh, and he runs away.
141
Okay, goodbye, squirrel.
142
Okay, let's move on.
143
We'll come on over to oxygen.
144
Now, of course, this is underwater.
145
This picture shows underwater, but we can see the air rising up.
146
Probably some scuba divers are underwater and the air is going up from their tanks.
147
Let's take a look.
148
There's a scuba diver right there.
149
We can see the air coming up from his tank when he's breathing out.
150
So all these little bubbles here,
151
all these little bubbles are the air or oxygen that he's breathing out and it's going up into the water.
152
And this is very interesting.
153
Of course, all the air that this person needs is in the tank.
154
and he has a hose coming around that goes to his mouth like we saw in the other picture.
155
And he's breathing from this tank.
156
So scuba diving is a lot of fun, right?
157
And you can stay underwater for a very long time because you take the oxygen you need with you underwater.
158
Okay, coming back to our chart here, we have food.
159
This is also what animals need to live, right?
160
So here we have a picture of a squirrel looks like
161
could be the friend of the other squirrel we saw in his shelter, right?
162
This squirrel, wow, he's really eating that nut.
163
That's his food.
164
Of course, squirrels get nuts from trees, usually trees and other plants, but squirrels will get all sorts of different kinds of nuts.
165
They will store them in their home, or of course they have to eat them also every day as well.
166
Wow, this little guy is really energetic, isn't he?
167
He really ate that nut very quickly.
168
It seems to be very hungry.
169
Okay, well let's move on.
170
The other thing, of course, all animals need water.
171
Imagine, can you go throughout the day without drinking any water?
172
You feel very thirsty, don't you?
173
It's important to drink a lot of water every day.
174
Just like these zebras.
175
Let's take a look.
176
These are zebras in the wild, and of course they are drinking water from a puddle or a large puddle here.
177
I wouldn't really call it a lake, but as you can see many zebras have to come down to these puddles every day to get water to drink.
178
However, it's a little dangerous because sometimes lions and other animals
179
that eat zebras will stay here waiting for the zebras to come down because animals need to eat, right?
180
They need food as we just saw, but animals also need water.
181
So it's very interesting in Africa, this is kind of an interesting relationship, right?
182
Animals that come to water have to watch out for other animals that want to eat them as food.
183
Okay, so water and food.
184
Okay, let's go over the exercise now.
185
Our job here is to go over each word.
186
We have the definition and we have the words up here.
187
We have to match the definition to the proper word.
188
Let's start with number one.
189
A place where birds live.
190
Remember we talked about that.
191
It's a special kind of shelter.
192
Is it hatch, breathe, oxygen, store, nest, or shelter?
193
Don't choose shelter because birds have a special kind of shelter.
194
Do you remember what it was?
195
That's right, it's nest.
196
Birds have a special kind of shelter.
197
They call a nest, it's up in a tree.
198
And they build their nest.
199
Okay, so number two, a place where an animal can be safe.
200
A place where an animal can be safe.
201
I'll give you another hint.
202
A nest is a type of this thing.
203
What is it?
204
It's a shelter, okay?
205
It's where an animal can be safe.
206
It's a shelter.
207
It's an animal's house where they can be safe from the weather, from other animals.
208
They have safety in their shelter.
209
Number three, to keep something for future use.
210
So if you get some food, you can eat it now or you can put it away and save it for later.
211
To keep something for future use, that means to store.
212
To store something.
213
You noticed I used a different word there.
214
I said to save.
215
So we can use keep.
216
We can also use save.
217
To save something for future use to keep something for future use, also to store something for future use.
218
So all these verbs have the similar meaning, to keep, to save, to store.
219
Don't use it now, keep it.
220
You might need it later.
221
That's very important to do.
222
Think about that, especially for human beings.
223
What do we store for future use?
224
A very common thing we save for future use is money, right?
225
Don't spend all your money now.
226
Save some.
227
Store some for future use.
228
Okay, let's move on.
229
Number four, a gas that is necessary for animals to live.
230
So remember, gas, it's in the air around us and we need it to breathe.
231
What gas is that from our words?
232
Of course, if you picked oxygen, that's correct.
233
Gas is an oxygen that we need to use.
234
It's necessary for animals to live.
235
If we go underwater, we need to take our oxygen with us in a tank, right?
236
As we saw on the video.
237
Number five is to come out of an egg.
238
So it's a verb, to come out of an egg.
239
When babies, some babies, some animals will come out of an egg when they're very young, when they're just babies.
240
What is that process called?
241
That, of course, is called to hatch. To hatch.
242
They come out of an egg.
243
Number six, to take in oxygen.
244
To take it in, right?
245
That of course is to breathe.
246
So breathe with me, right?
247
Breathe deeply, right?
248
Breathe in, breathe out.
249
Okay?
250
We all need to breathe in order to survive.
251
We need oxygen in the air around us.
252
Okay, so that wraps up these words here.
253
Let's take a look at our chart here.
254
We have an interesting chart here.
255
It's a little bit of a different subject.
256
We're talking about what animals need to grow.
257
Animals and plants are the natural world, right?
258
And animals use plants in order to grow.
259
How do animals use plants?
260
But how do animals use plants?
261
There are many ways.
262
We can see four major ways in this chart.
263
The first way we can see animals live in plants.
264
It doesn't mean inside the plant, it means surrounded by plants.
265
For example, you can see these chimpanzees, right?
266
They are living in plants, they're living around plants.
267
Let's take a look at the video here.
268
Wow, look at these guys.
269
Whoa, he looks like a very tough guy, right?
270
He's saying, hey, I've got something for you, right?
271
Okay.
272
Or I don't know what he's doing.
273
But you can see they are living in plants.
274
You can see this little hole here and another one here.
275
They probably go inside here.
276
They use these plants for protection because other animals that might attack the chimpanzees can't see the chimps inside the plants.
277
So some animals will live inside plants.
278
It doesn't mean inside the plant.
279
It means surrounded by plants.
280
In another way, animals use plants to make homes.
281
Before, we saw how birds make nests.
282
That's their shelter.
283
Here is a good example of a nest.
284
Well, birds don't just find nests, they make nests.
285
They take branches.
286
They take branches.
287
Branches are parts of trees, of course.
288
You can also say they take twigs.
289
Twigs are very small pieces of branches, and that's what birds will pick up.
290
They will get a lot of twigs, they'll put them together and shape them like a bowl, and that's their nest.
291
You can see there are eggs inside the nest.
292
Let's take a look at the video here.
293
Oh, look at that.
294
This little baby bird, these baby birds, have hatched from those eggs, and now they're in the nest.
295
Mama bird comes along and she's watching over her babies.
296
And sometimes she'll bring them food.
297
See, little baby birds are like, I'm hungry!
298
I'm hungry!
299
Give me food!
300
Right?
301
So, um, Mama just ate that piece of food.
302
Okay, but Mama will protect her babies, she will bring them food, and you can see that they're very hungry.
303
Their mouths are open and they're waiting for food.
304
Okay, let's move on.
305
So animals also hide in plants.
306
We talked a little bit about that with the chimpanzees.
307
The chimpanzees will go into the forest or hide.
308
But we can also see another example, and this is a good example of a deer.
309
A deer is laying down, we have tall grass.
310
There's a little baby deer over here.
311
Let's take a look.
312
So as we can see, we can see the mama deer very quickly, but we didn't see the baby deer very quickly quickly.
313
We only saw the back part but all of a sudden the head pops up, right?
314
So these deer can use the grass to hide in.
315
When they lay down, other animals can't see them.
316
Mama deer though, she's looking up around because she wants to make sure nothing's coming, right?
317
She wants to make sure her baby is safe, so she's keeping an eye out.
318
But baby deer can can lie down in the grass, Nobody can see it.
319
So animals can hide in plants.
320
Finally, our last picture here, the very common way that many, many animals use plants is to eat plants, right?
321
Here we have a video.
322
Let's take a look at a video.
323
Of course, birds will eat plants too.
324
Look at this bird.
325
He's got a nut in his beak and it's kind of hard.
326
He's trying to chew it.
327
He's got a very strong beak, so he can crush that seed and he can eat it.
328
Of course, many other animals will eat plants too.
329
The deer that we just saw, they'll eat that grass.
330
Deer eat trees.
331
Cows, if you think of cows, they'll move along and eat the grass in the field.
332
So many many animals need plants for food.
333
Let's move on here.
334
Now here we have an exercise.
335
Choose the things that animals are getting in the pictures.
336
What are these animals getting in the pictures?
337
In the first picture here, you see the bird?
338
It's a bird with a very fancy yellow chest.
339
What is this bird getting?
340
You can see that he's holding on to something.
341
This is a very interesting looking shelter.
342
This is a very interesting looking nest.
343
And of course I just said shelter.
344
This bird is getting shelter in this picture because this bird made a very interesting looking nest here and it's getting shelter.
345
Okay, let's move on.
346
What is the animal in this picture?
347
Can you see it?
348
You see this tail right here?
349
What is that a tail of?
350
That is a tail of a whale.
351
What is the whale doing?
352
Whales are not fish.
353
Whales need to come up to the surface of the water because they can't breathe underwater.
354
They have to come up to the surface to where the air is
355
and then they breathe and it looks like another whale is here and it's breathing out.
356
So what are these whales getting?
357
Of course they are getting oxygen.
358
They have to come up to the surface of the water to the surface of the water, then they can breathe and they're getting oxygen.
359
Okay, finally we have a cute panda bear here, right?
360
This panda bear is using plants.
361
What is the panda bear using the plants for?
362
Shelter or food in this picture?
363
Obviously he's eating the plant, so he's using the plant for food.
364
Okay, so just to wrap up, the bird's getting shelter from the plant,
365
the whales are getting oxygen and the panda bear is getting food.
366
So these are things that animals need to grow and to live.
367
Okay, let's go over our true-false questions.
368
Circle T for true, F for false.
369
Number one, a nest helps to protect young birds.
370
So remember, we were talking about the birds and their nests, right?
371
And we've said that a nest is a type of what?
372
A nest is a type of shelter.
373
What did we say about shelters?
374
Shelters, a shelter keeps an animal safe.
375
So a nest helps to protect young birds.
376
To protect means to keep safe.
377
And birds use nests, don't they?
378
So this sentence is true.
379
It's true.
380
A nest helps to protect young birds.
381
A shelter keeps animals safe.
382
A nest is a type of shelter.
383
Okay, good.
384
So number two, to store means to come out of an egg.
385
So when an animal comes out of an egg, that means to store, right?
386
No, it doesn't, right?
387
To store means to save something for future use.
388
To come out of an egg, what is that?
389
That is to hatch.
390
So we would have to change this to hatch, right?
391
Do you remember we talked about that word?
392
To hatch means to come out of an egg.
393
So obviously this sentence is false.
394
So we would have to change that.
395
Number three, oxygen has many different colors.
396
We talked about oxygen before, right?
397
I said it's in the air around us.
398
Can we see it?
399
No, we can't see it.
400
It's invisible.
401
We cannot see it.
402
So therefore, it doesn't have any color.
403
There's no color to oxygen, so this is false, right?
404
It doesn't have many different colors.
405
Okay, well let's take a break here and we'll come back and do the reading.
406
Okay, let's go over the reading now.
407
In this reading passage, we can see the topic sentence is the first sentence right here.
408
Animals need many things to live.
409
That's our topic sentence.
410
We know our subject is animals and our idea is that they need many things to live.
411
That's our idea.
412
Our subject is animals.
413
What's the idea about animals?
414
They need many things to live.
415
In this reading passage, we will see four things that animals need to live.
416
First, the number one.
417
What's number one?
418
We can find that easily that easily.
419
First means number one.
420
Animals need oxygen.
421
That's the first thing that animals need.
422
They need oxygen to breathe.
423
Remember, oxygen is the gas.
424
How do we get it?
425
The verb is to breathe.
426
We see another sentence about oxygen, giving us more details about oxygen.
427
What is oxygen like?
428
It has no color and oxygen is made by plants.
429
Plants will produce oxygen and animals will breathe that oxygen.
430
Plants are very important in another way to animals.
431
Let's move on.
432
The second thing animals need to live, we can see that right away, that's number two.
433
Animals need food to get energy.
434
Why do we need food?
435
We need food to get energy.
436
So it's very interesting we have a pattern here.
437
First, animals need oxygen to breathe.
438
Second, animals need food to get energy.
439
So it's a very good pattern we can see in this reading passage.
440
Some animals eat plants.
441
So what kind of food?
442
Plants is one type of food.
443
Some animals eat other animals, right?
444
Remember I talked about the zebras at the watering hole?
445
They have to be careful because lions will go to the watering hole to wait for their food to come to them.
446
So some animals eat other animals.
447
Also, there are animals that eat both plants and animals.
448
Really?
449
There are some animals that eat both plants and other animals?
450
What animal would do that?
451
You're looking at one.
452
You are one too.
453
We eat both plants and animals.
454
At our dinner table, we'll probably have vegetables, eat lots of vegetables, plants, vegetables, plants, and you'll probably have other animals like chicken.
455
Chicken is very delicious, right?
456
That's another animal.
457
So there are animals that eat both.
458
Some animals only eat plants, some animals only eat other animals, meat, and some animals, like us, eat both.
459
Okay.
460
Third, what's the third thing that animals need?
461
Animals need to drink water.
462
We all need to drink water to stay alive to stay alive.
463
Drink water to stay alive.
464
Again, it's following the pattern.
465
We need this thing in order to do that thing.
466
Oxygen to breathe, food to get energy, water to stay alive.
467
Last.
468
Last is also four, right?
469
Third, last, that would be fourth.
470
But because it's the last one, 마지막, right?
471
We can say it's the last one.
472
Last, animals need shelters.
473
Shelters, why?
474
To protect them.
475
Shelters to protect them.
476
Shelters help to protect animals from danger and can keep them safe.
477
Okay?
478
So those are the four things we were talking about that animals need in order to live and to grow.
479
For example, birds live in nests.
480
This is a type of shelter.
481
They store their eggs in the nests and the eggs hatch in the nests.
482
So birds, of course, will make a nest.
483
They will lay their eggs.
484
They will keep their eggs safe in their shelter, which is a nest.
485
Later on, those eggs will hatch into baby birds.
486
If animals do not have oxygen, food, water and shelter, those are our four things,
487
one, two, three, four, they could become extinct.
488
So that's very true.
489
These are the things, the four things that animals need.
490
We need oxygen.
491
If we don't have oxygen, we will die die.
492
If we don't have food, we will die.
493
If we don't have water, we will die.
494
If we don't have shelter, we won't be safe and we could die.
495
So, if we don't have these things, they could become extinct.
496
All the animals could die.
497
Let's take a look at a picture here.
498
This is a picture of some baby birds.
499
Mama bird is giving them food.
500
They have shelter.
501
Mama bird is giving them food.
502
They have air because they're breathing the air around them.
503
So they have all the things they need to grow and that they need to survive.
504
So these birds will not go extinct as long as they have those things that they need.
505
Now let's take a look at the main idea and details.
506
As we saw in the topic sentence, this reading passage was about what animals need.
507
What animals need to live.
508
So we have our words down here, shelter, oxygen, and water.
509
Those are three of the things that animals need.
510
How do we put them into our chart?
511
Number four is food.
512
A. One of these things.
513
This is made by plants and has no color.
514
So two important things.
515
One, made by plants.
516
And two, it has no color.
517
These two things define what we're looking for.
518
We talked about in the air, we can't see it, it has no color.
519
We also mentioned before that it's made by plants.
520
What is it?
521
Of course, if you chose oxygen, that's correct.
522
It's a gas.
523
It's made by plants and has no color.
524
Food is already done for us.
525
Food, animals need this to get energy.
526
What do animals use with food?
527
They use it to get energy.
528
Over here, B, we don't know what that is.
529
We need to look at the definition.
530
Animals get it by drinking.
531
So when we're drinking, what do we usually get?
532
Of course, we get water.
533
Animals need water in order to live.
534
Finally, this is a place where animals can be safe.
535
They can be safe in this place.
536
What is it?
537
Of course, if you chose shelter, that would be correct.
538
Animals need shelter to protect them from other animals and also from the weather.
539
So, this is a place where they can be safe.
540
Okay, let's move on.
541
Let's answer the reading comprehension questions.
542
Correct answer.
543
Number one, where does a bird live?
544
Does a bird live in hatch?
545
Does a bird live in a nest?
546
Or does a bird live in a store?
547
Actually, two of these words are verbs.
548
This is a verb.
549
This is a verb.
550
This is a noun.
551
Right?
552
This one is a verb and a verb.
553
So if you think about it, you could just answer it on the grammatical terms by itself.
554
Where does a bird live?
555
We're looking for a noun.
556
A place is a noun.
557
So of course, our only possible answer would be B.
558
Of course, a nest is a type of shelter.
559
Hatch means to come out of an egg.
560
Store means to keep something for future use.
561
So obviously, when we talk about where does a bird live, a place, well a place is a nest.
562
It's a noun, right?
563
Okay.
564
Number two, how can a shelter help an animal?
565
We've talked about this a lot, haven't we?
566
You should know the answer.
567
Let's go over the possible choices.
568
Keep it safe.
569
Yeah, we've talked about this a lot.
570
So keep it safe is the correct answer.
571
Let's go over B and C just for practice.
572
B, to give it food.
573
A shelter gives an animal food?
574
No, that's not true.
575
The animal has to go out and get food.
576
Now, the animal can store food in the shelter, right?
577
But he doesn't go there first to get the food.
578
He has to go somewhere else, bring the food back to the shelter, and store it there.
579
C, how can a shelter help an animal?
580
To make it extinct?
581
No, right?
582
We talked about an animal needs food, water, air, and heat shelter so that it won't go extinct,
583
so that it does not become extinct.
584
So of course, C would not be a correct answer.
585
A is the correct answer.
586
Shelters keep animals safe.
587
Okay, question number three.
588
Some animals only eat other animals.
589
So we're talking about what animals eat.
590
Remember we were talking about those three types of animals, right?
591
Some animals eat other animals, Some animals eat plants and some animals eat both, animals and plants.
592
In this case, some animals only eat other animals and some animals only eat oxygen.
593
Eat oxygen?
594
We don't eat oxygen, right?
595
We breathe oxygen.
596
That would be very strange, right?
597
If we could eat oxygen, right?
598
That's crazy.
599
Okay, so that's not the correct answer.
600
That's kind of silly.
601
B, some animals only eat plants.
602
Right?
603
We talked about that, right?
604
Some animals eat other animals, some animals only eat plants.
605
That's true.
606
So B is our correct answer.
607
Let's take a look at C.
608
Some animals only drink water.
609
That's not true because of only.
610
Not only drink water.
611
Remember, food and water are different.
612
Yes, we do need water, but we also need food.
613
We can't survive if we only drink water.
614
We also need food to get energy.
615
Water we drink to help our bodies grow, to help the process of our body, to help blood move through our body.
616
We need water, but we also need food.
617
So we can't survive if we only drink water.
618
So C, of course, would not be correct either.
619
We saw that B is our answer.
620
Number four, what do birds need to stop them from becoming extinct?
621
Now remember, it's not just birds, right?
622
It's all animals.
623
So don't be confused, right?
624
It's all animals.
625
What do all animals need to stop them from becoming extinct?
626
A, they need eggs, young, and nests. Is that true?
627
Well, birds, do they need eggs?
628
They make eggs, right?
629
Then the eggs hatch into young.
630
And just nests?
631
There's nothing else here.
632
Remember, animals need four things in order to survive.
633
We only see one thing, nests, could be shelter.
634
Shelter is one of those four things.
635
So A is not the correct answer.
636
What about B?
637
They need other animals to eat them.
638
Do you see birds eating other animals?
639
Sometimes you do.
640
Sometimes you do, some big birds like vultures and eagles, they do eat other animals, but we also saw a video of a bird eating a seed.
641
It's interesting, some birds eat only plants, some birds eat only other animals.
642
That's interesting.
643
So this isn't true for all birds, or all animals.
644
That's not true.
645
They also need many other things.
646
Let's look at sea.
647
Now that's an interesting one.
648
They need water, they need oxygen, they need food, and they need shelter.
649
There's our four things, right?
650
Those are the four things that birds and all animals need.
651
Water, oxygen, food, and shelter.
652
That's what we're talking about in this lesson.
653
The four things that all animals need in order to live.
654
So C of course is our right answer, our correct answer.
655
Okay, let's move on to the slide, our last slide.
656
It's kind of like a puzzle.
657
We're looking at our chart.
658
We saw this chart before.
659
Remember, we just talked about the four things that animals need to live.
660
Let's take a look at these different pictures and see what they are.
661
First of all, we see a cute little animal in a tree.
662
What is this animal represent?
663
Or where is this animal?
664
What place is this animal?
665
Remember, he looks safe inside this area.
666
He looks very safe.
667
He, of course, is in a shelter.
668
So that's one thing, one of the four things, that animals need in order to live.
669
Over here, it's underwater, right?
670
We can see these bubbles coming up.
671
This is a gas, right?
672
What is in that gas that we need to breathe?
673
What is that element?
674
That element, of course, is oxygen.
675
So we need oxygen also to live.
676
Down here, these zebras are lined up.
677
They're drinking.
678
What are they drinking?
679
They're drinking water.
680
That's another thing that all animals need to live.
681
Finally, over here, we have our friend the squirrel.
682
He has, what are these things?
683
They look like nuts.
684
They're not berries.
685
They're colorful like berries, but they're not.
686
They are nuts.
687
And he's got his hand on one of them, right?
688
So he's very happy.
689
He's got a lot of what?
690
What does he have a lot of there?
691
He's got a lot of food.
692
So this squirrel is very happy.
693
He has a lot of food.
694
He can eat some and he can store some for later use, probably in his shelter.
695
So we have many things here, four things that animals need in order to live.
696
Okay, well that wraps up our lesson for today.
697
Hope you've learned a lot.
698
It's very interesting talking about animals.
699
And remember, we're animals too.
700
We need all of these things as well.
701
Okay, well, we'll see you guys next time.
702
Take care.

What is the Shadowing Technique?
Shadowing is a science-backed language learning technique originally developed for professional interpreter training and popularized by polyglot Dr. Alexander Arguelles. The method is simple but powerful: you listen to native English audio and immediately repeat it out loud — like a shadow following the speaker with just a 1–2 second delay. Unlike passive listening or grammar drills, shadowing forces your brain and mouth muscles to simultaneously process and reproduce real speech patterns. Research shows it significantly improves pronunciation accuracy, intonation, rhythm, connected speech, listening comprehension, and speaking fluency — making it one of the most effective methods for IELTS Speaking preparation and real-world English communication.
