Hello, everybody.
2
Welcome back to American Textbook Reading.
3
We're going over lesson four today, types of animals.
4
Types, many different types of animals.
5
As you can see in this picture, there are lots of different types or kinds of animals.
6
Some animals are big, some animals are small, some animals move in a strange way, right?
7
Some animals run, some animals walk, some animals crawl.
8
So there are many different types of animals.
9
In this lesson, you will discover animal groups.
10
That means we can talk about each group of animal as being different or distinct,
11
different from each other in some way.
12
So we're going to look at six different types of animal groups.
13
We can group animals into six different groups.
14
Let's take a look.
15
Let's start with the first group here.
16
Now this group is probably maybe your favorite group.
17
It's my favorite group because we, human beings, are part of this type, a part of this group.
18
And this group is mammal.
19
Okay, so what is a mammal?
20
A mammal is an animal with hair that gives birth to live babies.
21
Okay, well these two panda bears, I don't think either one of them is a baby, but a mammal has two distinctive characteristics.
22
One, it has hair.
23
That's the first characteristic.
24
The second characteristic gives birth to live babies.
25
What does it mean, live babies?
26
In other words, when a mammal gives birth, the baby is alive.
27
It's moving.
28
It's not like an egg.
29
When an animal gives birth to an egg, the animal isn't moving yet.
30
It has to break out of the shell.
31
So it's not really a live baby.
32
Mammals give birth to live babies.
33
The baby is moving right away after birth.
34
So those are the two characteristics or two unique features of mammals.
35
And we can see many different types of mammals.
36
What's the second group?
37
The second group is reptile.
38
And this is an example of a reptile.
39
A kind of ugly but also a little bit scary example of a reptile.
40
What is this?
41
Looks like an alligator or a crocodile reptile.
42
How do we describe reptiles?
43
How are they different from mammals?
44
Here we have a reptile is an animal that lives on land.
45
It lives on land.
46
It can go in the water as this alligator does, but it lives on land normally and it has dry skin.
47
If you think of most reptiles, this guy just took a bath.
48
He's just coming out of the water so his skin is wet right now, but if you look at most reptiles like lizards or snakes, their skin is dry.
49
They live on land and they have dry skin.
50
Let's look at a video of a typical reptile.
51
Do you know what type or what animal this is?
52
If you guessed iguana, it is an iguana.
53
This is an iguana.
54
It's a fairly large lizard, as lizards go.
55
Let's take a look at it as it's moving around here.
56
He's kind of an interesting fellow.
57
He's kind of a little bit active.
58
You can see the way he's moving around.
59
By the way, another interesting thing about reptiles is that they are cold -blooded.
60
Cold -blooded means that they cannot regulate their own temperature.
61
They are cold -blooded.
62
Mammals are warm -blooded.
63
It means, mammals, we generate our own heat from our bodies, but reptiles cannot generate their own heat.
64
They need a lot of sunlight and look, he's on the rocks here, these white rocks.
65
These white rocks are giving off heat, so he's probably seeking warmth in the sunlight.
66
Reptiles need that heat to warm their bodies.
67
If they don't have it, then they can get in trouble.
68
So that's another difference between mammals and reptiles.
69
Let's move on.
70
Sometimes we can see another type of animal.
71
You might think, hey, that looks like a reptile, but it's not a reptile.
72
It's an amphibian, amphibian.
73
Remember, PH sounds like F.
74
Amphibian, amphibian.
75
So, an amphibian is any animal that can live...
76
Both.
77
That's the important point.
78
Both.
79
On land and in water.
80
So, a frog can live on the land, no problem.
81
But it can also live in the water, no problem.
82
It's amphibian.
83
It can do both things.
84
Amphibians have smooth, wet skin.
85
Before we saw the picture of the alligator and then the iguana,
86
if you touched the alligator's skin or the iguana's skin, you'd find it's rough.
87
It's not smooth.
88
And it's dry, especially the iguana would have dry skin.
89
And it would be hard to do this.
90
You have to be careful.
91
It wouldn't feel very good.
92
It's very rough and a little difficult on your fingers, maybe hurt your fingers a little bit.
93
But if you pet a frog, and it's kind of slimy, right?
94
But it has smooth skin and it's wet, so that's a good difference.
95
Amphibians are wet, reptiles are dry.
96
You can think of that in that way.
97
But anyway, this is an amphibian.
98
Let's take a look at a video of a frog.
99
This is a little frog here.
100
He's sitting in the grass, and he looks like he's just hanging out, doesn't look too interesting.
101
Oh, what's going on?
102
Whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa.
103
That's, wow, that's pretty cool.
104
That frog just jumped up, okay?
105
So frogs, you know, of course, you know, they jump up like that.
106
They've got the big long legs, but they're amphibians, kind of a neat frog, right?
107
I hope he's, he's not on my head, is he?
108
Okay, okay.
109
Well, let's move on to the next slide.
110
Okay.
111
Also, we can group animals as birds.
112
Birds are a group of their own because birds, if you think about it, they're unique, right?
113
What is a bird?
114
A bird has feathers, right?
115
It has many feathers.
116
We can see the feathers here.
117
And two wings.
118
One, two wings.
119
Most birds can fly.
120
That's another key point right there.
121
Most.
122
It doesn't mean all.
123
It means most.
124
Of course, when we think about birds, we think, oh, they can fly.
125
But not all birds can fly.
126
Think about in Africa, there's a really big bird that can't fly.
127
It's called an ostrich, right?
128
An ostrich.
129
An ostrich is a bird, but it can't fly.
130
It can run, but it can't fly.
131
So most birds can fly, not all birds can fly.
132
So these are birds, but all birds have feathers, all birds have wings.
133
Okay, so those are the unique characteristics of birds.
134
Okay, what's next?
135
Insects.
136
Insects are very, very, very common in the animal kingdom.
137
We may not think much about insects.
138
We may not think, you know, insects are very great animals, but there are actually a lot of insects.
139
Insects are probably, and the different species of insects, are probably more than other types of animals.
140
Insects are probably the most common type of animal in the earth.
141
But we don't think about them because they're so small.
142
But what are insects?
143
An insect, this is a good picture of an insect, this is a stag beetle.
144
Very impressive looking creature, but remember he's not that big, he's a small guy.
145
An insect is a small creature with three body parts.
146
It has three body parts and six legs.
147
Insects have no bones.
148
There are no bones inside of an insect.
149
The insect gets its strength for its body in its shell.
150
Insect shells, insect bodies are hard shell -like structures.
151
Insects don't have bones on the inside like mammals or birds or reptiles do, or even amphibians.
152
Okay, so this is an example of a stag beetle.
153
All right, let's take a look.
154
Here's another type of beetle here, and he's crawling along a leaf.
155
You can see his head, you can see the middle section, you can see the abdomen, and you can see one, two, three, four, five, six legs.
156
He's kind of having a hard time crawling over this leaf, but that's a good example of an insect.
157
Insects have three body parts and six legs.
158
That's how you know it's an insect.
159
Okay, so bye -bye beetle.
160
Okay, so another large group of animals, fish, right?
161
Fish, of course, live under the water.
162
And again, we don't really encounter fish too often because we don't live in water, but if we go swimming at the coast or if We go diving,
163
snorkeling, we can see fish under the water.
164
They're very colorful, very interesting creatures.
165
What is a fish?
166
How do we describe fish?
167
A fish is a creature that lives in the water.
168
It breathes through its gills.
169
You can see the gills right here, this opening on the side of the head right here.
170
There's oxygen in the water, but we can't get that oxygen because we don't have gills.
171
But a fish has gills, so it can push that water through and take out the oxygen, and that's how a fish breathes underwater.
172
If you take a fish out of water, you can't breathe because gills don't work in air.
173
Fish use fins and a tail to swim.
174
The tail here and the fins, they use that to swim through the water.
175
Next, let's take a look at a unique part of certain fish and also reptiles on their skin.
176
Different types of animals will have different characteristics to them.
177
One interesting characteristic is a scale.
178
What is a scale?
179
A scale is a section of the skin on a fish or reptile.
180
You can see this pattern.
181
This pattern is very close up.
182
We're looking very closely at the skin of a fish or a reptile.
183
Their skin looks like this.
184
It's in scales.
185
And these scales sometimes will flake off, right?
186
We have smooth skin.
187
We cannot see scales on our skin only fish or reptiles.
188
So fish or reptiles only have scales, this type of skin.
189
Very interesting.
190
It protects them and it's a different style, it's a different type of skin or covering for the animal.
191
When we talk about animals, we can talk about their young, the young of animals.
192
Okay, so as we see here, we have mama sheep, right?
193
And we have two baby sheep, right?
194
Lambs.
195
This would be one baby sheep.
196
We could say young.
197
So actually both of them are young.
198
Young is non -count.
199
We say the young of a sheep, the young of a horse.
200
So young is the babies of animals, right?
201
So when we say young, we're talking about the babies of animals.
202
Okay.
203
Now, before we talked a little bit about insects, when we talked about insects we said insects have no bones.
204
Insects do not have bones.
205
Now we're talking about bones.
206
A bone, what is a bone?
207
This is a very strange looking bird, isn't it?
208
Actually, it's an illustration, it's an artist's drawing of the inside of a bird.
209
Normally we don't see this, right?
210
But if you could take away the skin and the organs, this is what you're left with.
211
You're left with the skeleton, the hard bony structure inside an animal that supports the body.
212
If you didn't have the skeleton, there's no support.
213
It would just fall apart.
214
There's nothing to be able to move around.
215
So a bone is a hard, that's the most important thing of a bone is
216
that it's hard a white part that makes up the frame of the body.
217
So the bones make up the frame of the body
218
and they support the organs and the skin and everything else that the animal needs to survive.
219
So the bones make up the frame of the body, okay?
220
And not just for birds, but also for us and mammals and many other types of animals, okay?
221
So this is the bone.
222
Bones are very important, okay?
223
Also, it's good for you to drink milk to help your bones.
224
You need a lot of calcium because that's what bones need to grow.
225
You can find calcium in milk.
226
Drink a lot of milk, it will help your bones.
227
Remember we talked before about mammals?
228
Mammals give birth to live young, but not all animals give birth to live young.
229
I gave the example of eggs.
230
Here we have a couple of eggs.
231
This one is the normal egg that you might eat this one for breakfast.
232
This one is a strange egg, looks a little bit different.
233
And is it broken?
234
I hope not.
235
What's going on here?
236
It looks like it's cracked, right?
237
Probably the baby inside this egg is cracking the inside.
238
It wants to come out.
239
So this is a different style of birth.
240
Mammals don't lay eggs.
241
But what is an egg?
242
How can we describe an egg?
243
An egg is a round shell, usually round, maybe not perfectly round,
244
but roundish, it's a round shell where a baby bird or reptile grows.
245
So it's not just birds, it's also reptiles.
246
Reptiles also lay eggs and they will come out.
247
Fish also lay eggs too by the way.
248
So birds or reptiles will lay an egg and the young bird
249
or the young reptile will grow inside that egg
250
and then after a while they'll crack and they'll come out of the egg, okay?
251
Okay, moving on here, we have a nice chart.
252
This chart is about animals and their characteristics.
253
I talked before about characteristics or features of animals.
254
Different types of animals have different characteristics or different features.
255
So over here we have the type of animal.
256
Remember we were talking about six different types of animals.
257
We have three of them here.
258
And we have a picture showing an example, just an example.
259
Well, not all of them, but just one example from each group or each category.
260
And then over here we have a description or characteristic that belongs to that group.
261
So, for example, we have mammals.
262
And we have a picture, an example of a mammal.
263
This is actually, don't be confused by this picture, it's actually two polar bears.
264
You only see the head of one, but this is the back of another one.
265
It looks like they might be giving each other a bear hug or one is giving the other a bear hug.
266
But this is one polar bear, that's two polar bears, so that's kind of an interesting picture.
267
But this is a polar bear, polar bears.
268
What is their characteristic?
269
Hair or fur?
270
So we can see that mammals have a lot of hair.
271
They have fur on their bodies.
272
They give birth to live babies.
273
So when they have a baby, the baby is not in an egg, it's moving around already.
274
It's ready to start crawling around, sometimes even to start walking around, depending on the animal.
275
Okay, so that's a mammal.
276
This is the characteristic of the mammal.
277
Let's move on to bird, and then we have an example of a couple of ducks.
278
These are ducks, they are birds.
279
What is unique about birds?
280
What are their characteristics?
281
Birds have two legs, one, two, they have two wings, one, two, and they have feathers on their bodies.
282
So if you describe an animal that has two legs, two wings, and has feathers on their bodies, you're talking about a bird.
283
Okay, let's move on to the next one.
284
Amphibian.
285
Amphibian, do you remember the unique characteristics about an amphibian?
286
What makes an amphibian different, for example, from a reptile?
287
Well, an amphibian has smooth and wet skin.
288
So the skin of an amphibian, like a frog here, is smooth and wet.
289
Actually, it's kind of, you touch it, maybe it feels a little slimy, right?
290
But it's wet and smooth.
291
It enables them, enable, allows them, lets them, permits them to live on land and in water.
292
So amphibians can live both on land and in water.
293
Fish are not amphibians.
294
Fish cannot live on land.
295
Fish can only live in water.
296
But amphibians can do both.
297
They can live on land, they can also live in the water.
298
Okay, let's move on to the next three types of animals that we talked about, that we discussed.
299
Here we have a reptile, we see an example, looks like a lizard here.
300
I don't know, is that a gecko, a type of lizard?
301
I'm not sure what type of lizard that is, but it's an interesting, very fierce -looking character, isn't it?
302
It's a nice lizard there.
303
What is the unique characteristic of reptiles?
304
Reptiles have dry skin covered with scales.
305
Remember we saw that close -up picture of what a scale is, right?
306
It's kind of a pattern on the skin.
307
That's what the reptiles have for their skin.
308
So dry skin covered with scales is a reptile.
309
What about fish?
310
Fish also have scales, we can see that.
311
It seems a little bit short here,
312
but we can also remember fish live underwater and have scales for skin.
313
So fish live underwater, they can breathe underwater, and they have scales on their skin.
314
Okay, the last group here, of course, is insect.
315
What is the unique characteristics of insects?
316
Insects have three body parts, right?
317
The head, the thorax, and the abdomen.
318
Three body parts.
319
So we have the head, we have the thorax, we have the abdomen here.
320
Six legs.
321
One, two, three, four.
322
You can't see the other two, maybe it's kind of hard, but you know this ant has six legs.
323
And it has a hard shell for its body.
324
No bones on the inside.
325
It has a hard shell instead that provides the frame for the body.
326
So insect has three body parts, six legs, and a hard shell.
327
Let's take a look at a video of an ant moving around.
328
Let's take a look at him.
329
We can see the three parts very easily.
330
One, two, and three parts of the body, separate parts.
331
And we can see the legs.
332
This ant is very curious about what's inside of this leaf.
333
I don't know what's inside that leaf, but it looks like there might be some food in there that that ant is trying to get to.
334
But of course this ant is a small creature, like we said before.
335
It's a very typical type of insect, and he seems to be very, very busy trying to get at whatever's in that leaf.
336
But again, like I said before, insects have three body parts and six legs.
337
They also have this hard shell around their body.
338
Okay, let's go over some exercises to review what these words mean.
339
Here we have several words.
340
We have six different words we need to use these words to fill in the blanks.
341
These are the definitions of each word.
342
So let's read the definition for each word and then match which word goes with each definition.
343
Okay, number one, an animal that has smooth wet skin and can live in water and on land.
344
So remember, it can live both in water and on land.
345
It can live in both environments.
346
That's a very useful trait or characteristic to have, to live both on land and in water.
347
Do you remember what it is?
348
If you chose amphibian, then you would be correct.
349
Amphibians can live in water and on land.
350
They also have smooth, wet skin.
351
Move on to number two.
352
An animal that has three body parts and six legs.
353
We just saw a video of this type of animal.
354
What type of animal is it?
355
Of course, it's an insect.
356
It's an insect.
357
Just remember that.
358
Three body parts, six legs.
359
Okay, down here we have number three.
360
Let's move on.
361
An animal that lives in the water and has scales on its body.
362
An animal that lives in the water.
363
It can breathe in the water and it also has scales on its body for skin.
364
Doesn't really have a smooth skin.
365
It has a scale.
366
It has scales for the skin.
367
What is it?
368
It's a fish, right?
369
Fish.
370
We eat fish, of course.
371
Fish is very good for you as a food
372
but these are animals that live in the water and have scales on their body.
373
Let's move on to the next three, number four.
374
Number four is an animal that has dry skin and lays eggs.
375
Remember we talked about two types of animals that lay eggs, birds, and did you catch it?
376
Reptiles, right?
377
We know this is a reptile, not a bird.
378
Yes, they both lay eggs but dry skin has to do with reptile, not with a bird, right?
379
A bird has feathers on its skin, right?
380
It doesn't really have that dry, scaly skin.
381
Also remember, reptiles have scales on their skin also, okay?
382
Number five, an animal that has feathers and wings.
383
Well, that's, and it also lays eggs, by the way, of course.
384
So that was the other one we were talking about.
385
That, of course, is a bird, right?
386
A bird is an animal that has feathers and wings.
387
That's pretty obvious, right?
388
By the way, it also lays eggs.
389
Birds also lay eggs.
390
Okay, finally we have number six, an animal with hair on its body.
391
So which of these animals have hair on their bodies?
392
Of course, mammals.
393
We are mammals.
394
Bears are mammals.
395
Dogs are mammals.
396
Kittens are mammals.
397
They all have hair on their bodies, so they are mammals.
398
And the other, do you remember the other point about a mammal?
399
A mammal gives birth to live young.
400
The young can start moving around right away.
401
Okay, we have a good chart here.
402
Oh, what kinds of, we can, now we've looked at a lot of different types of animals.
403
Let's do a short little quiz here, right?
404
We have two different types of animals here.
405
Let's figure out what group they belong to, right?
406
First of all, we have whales.
407
This is a picture of a killer whale, right?
408
Orca, right?
409
Very magnificent, very beautiful animal.
410
Lives in the water.
411
It lives underwater, right?
412
It doesn't really breathe underwater, though.
413
That's a special thing about whales.
414
They do have to come up and breathe the air at the surface.
415
So, are whales fish?
416
No, whales are mammals.
417
Why are whales mammals?
418
Because whales give birth to live babies.
419
When a whale gives birth, the baby is alive already and also whales do not breathe underwater and they don't have scales on their skin.
420
So whales are actually mammals.
421
You want to see a video of a whale?
422
Let's take a look.
423
Okay, here we have a video of a mama whale and her young baby whale.
424
Very impressive, isn't it?
425
Very amazing.
426
What happened, of course, is mama whale is probably given birth to the baby whale here.
427
The baby whale is probably not very old.
428
And mama will take care of that baby whale until that baby whale is big enough to live on its own.
429
That's another thing about mammals.
430
Okay, let's move on to the next slide.
431
So, what about spiders?
432
That was our second one, right?
433
That was our second picture, spiders.
434
What about spiders?
435
A lot of people think, you know, spiders are small creatures, they have a lot of legs, they have three parts to the body, but are they insects?
436
No, spiders are not insects.
437
Do you know why?
438
Because, yeah, sure, they might have different parts of the body, right?
439
But they don't have six legs.
440
How many legs do they have?
441
One, two, three, four, and then they have these little arms here.
442
Five, six, seven, eight.
443
They have eight legs.
444
These two legs aren't really legs.
445
They're kind of like fangs.
446
They reach out and they grab prey.
447
Spiders.
448
Do you like spiders?
449
They're kind of scary, aren't they?
450
Okay, but they're small.
451
Don't worry.
452
They won't get you.
453
Okay, so they have eight legs.
454
So spiders are not insects.
455
Do you want to see a picture of a, I'm a little worried about watching a video of a spider, they're kind of scary.
456
But let's see.
457
Ah, that looks okay, right?
458
Kind of looks out of focus, maybe there's a tree in the background.
459
Wait a minute, what's going on?
460
Okay, here comes a spider.
461
How many legs?
462
One, two, three, four, five, six, seven, eight.
463
There's eight legs on that spider.
464
That's a big spider, isn't it?
465
Okay, he's gone.
466
Okay, let's move on.
467
Okay, now here we have a little test for you, right?
468
So we have three different pictures of animals.
469
What kinds of animals are they?
470
Let's take a look at the pictures.
471
What do we got here?
472
Looks like we got a little lizard here.
473
What can we say about that lizard?
474
Looks like he's in a dry environment.
475
He's on land.
476
If we took a look at his skin really closely, we would find scales.
477
So what can we say?
478
What kind of animal is this?
479
Knowing those things about it, it has dry, scaly, rough skin.
480
It lives on land.
481
We would have to say that that is a reptile.
482
So a lizard is a reptile.
483
Wow, very impressive.
484
Look at this.
485
This is really cool.
486
This is a whale.
487
We talked about whales already.
488
The whale is coming out of the water here.
489
What can we say about whales?
490
Whales don't breathe underwater.
491
They can't breathe underwater.
492
They have to come up to the surface.
493
Sometimes they play at the surface.
494
They don't always come up to the surface like this.
495
Really, the whale just has to come up to the surface
496
for the top of his head to open the hole that he breathes through, and then he can breathe and he goes back down.
497
And whales can hold their breath for a really long time.
498
But this is a whale.
499
They give birth to live young.
500
What can we say about whales?
501
We can say that whales are mammals because they give birth to live young.
502
They're not fish.
503
They are mammals.
504
Over here, we have our last picture here.
505
Now, this is an interesting character.
506
He's a very strong animal, right?
507
Look at that leaf that he's carrying along with him.
508
The leaf is much bigger than he is, right?
509
So what can we say about this creature right here?
510
It has six legs.
511
One, two, three, four, five, six.
512
Six legs.
513
It has three parts of the body, head, middle, thorax, and abdomen.
514
And we can also say that that body is hard.
515
It's a hard shell.
516
This animal does not have bones.
517
So what can we say about that? we can say that it is an insect.
518
It has three body parts, six legs, and it has a hard body instead of bones.
519
Okay.
520
Okay, let's go over the true -false questions.
521
Okay, we have true or false, circle T for true, circle F for false.
522
Our first sentence.
523
Amphibians, do you remember amphibians?
524
Amphibians have dry skin covered with scales, right?
525
Wrong.
526
I hope you chose that this is false, right?
527
Amphibians have smooth, wet skin, right?
528
They don't have dry skin covered with scales.
529
What has dry skin covered with scales?
530
Reptiles.
531
So if we changed it, if we said reptiles, that would be okay.
532
Reptiles have dry skin covered with scales.
533
That would be true.
534
But no, the sentence says amphibians, so that's false.
535
Amphibians don't have dry skin, they have smooth, wet skin.
536
Okay, let's move on to number two.
537
Fish.
538
Fish have scales.
539
True. And fur?
540
Have you seen a fish with fur?
541
That would be really strange, right?
542
Maybe that's what they mean by dogfish.
543
No, I'm just kidding.
544
Dogfish is not a type of fish with fur.
545
Don't get me wrong.
546
Dogfish is just a different species of fish.
547
It's a type of fish.
548
But anyway, I've never seen a fish with fur on it, and that would be really, really strange.
549
Fish do not have fur, right?
550
They don't have fur.
551
If we just looked at this part of the sentence, that would be true, but because of this, it's false, right?
552
Fish do not have fur.
553
That would be very strange.
554
Three, insects have no bones.
555
So inside the body of an insect, there are no bones.
556
Is that true or false?
557
What do you think?
558
If you chose true, you'd be correct, right?
559
Insects don't have bones.
560
That's true.
561
They have no bones.
562
Instead, they have a hard shell on the outside, and that's what supports their body, gives them the framework.
563
Okay, well, let's take a short break before we get into the reading.
564
Okay, welcome back.
565
Let's go over the reading for this lesson.
566
Now, as usual, we usually take a look at the topic sentence of the reading, and that tells us what this reading passage is going to be about.
567
In this case, there are many kinds of animals.
568
That's the important part right here, many kinds.
569
And that's what we're talking about in this lesson.
570
Many different kinds or types of animals.
571
So, there are many kinds of animals.
572
Some.
573
When we talk about some, what are we talking about?
574
We're talking, of course, about animals.
575
Some animals.
576
Some animals lay eggs and some give birth to live young.
577
So we have the two opposites here, right?
578
Some give birth to eggs, right?
579
Or some lay eggs.
580
Some give birth to live young.
581
The two differences, the two main differences.
582
Some, again, some, some have smooth skin and some have scales.
583
So it's interesting.
584
These sentences are constructed showing one type and the opposite type, right?
585
So the next one, some have smooth skin, Some have dry, scaly skin or have scales on their skin.
586
Last sentence, again, same construction.
587
Some live in the water and some live on land.
588
Again, opposite.
589
Some live in the water, some live on land.
590
Okay, so it's very easily organized.
591
These sentences are organized all the same way.
592
And that's very good writing, by the way.
593
They all follow the same pattern, and that's important.
594
That's good.
595
It helps us understand.
596
Let's move on into the reading.
597
We're going to talk about different types.
598
We talked about the different characteristics of different animals.
599
Some live on land, some live in water.
600
Now we're going to talk about the specific names of these different types of animals.
601
A mammal is an animal with hair on its body.
602
It gives birth to live young.
603
That's our first category.
604
Remember, we're talking about six different categories.
605
A reptile has dry skin and lays eggs.
606
So that's the second one.
607
And what are the characteristics of a reptile?
608
It has dry skin, it lays eggs.
609
It also has scales on the skin, but you know, those are two characteristics.
610
Okay.
611
Next category, fish.
612
Fish.
613
Where do fish live?
614
They live in the water.
615
What about, what extra detail about the fish?
616
Is there any extra details?
617
Yes, they have scales on their bodies and they lay eggs also, just like reptiles.
618
Amphibians have smooth wet skin and most lay eggs.
619
Not all, but most amphibians lay eggs.
620
So these are details about amphibians.
621
We have a couple more groups to go over.
622
Bird.
623
A bird is an animal with feathers on its body.
624
Birds have wings.
625
It.
626
A bird has wings.
627
many animals have bones in their bodies." Okay, now this is kind of a sentence that's kind of going off talking about most animals.
628
This part right here, of course, is just talking about birds, but starting from here we say many animals, we get away from groups of animals,
629
we're just making a general statement about most animals or many animals, have bones in their bodies, because we were talking about bones before.
630
Bones are hard and give an animal's body shape.
631
We've got one more group of animals to talk about that don't have bones, and that's probably why we put bones in here, right?
632
Because insects have three body parts, six legs, they do not have bones.
633
So we put the information about bones before we put in insects because insects are different from all other types of animals.
634
They don't have bones.
635
Instead, they have a hard shell on their body, okay?
636
So we have covered all of the different types of animals up to that point and we finish up with a question,
637
what kind of animals can you see every day?
638
So think about it, in your everyday life what kind of animals do you see every day?
639
I'm sure you see mammals, maybe you have a dog or a cat at home
640
but I'm sure you see your other family members and they are mammals So you definitely see mammals every day.
641
If it's not winter, you probably see insects every day, right?
642
Running around outside in your garden, perhaps.
643
You probably see insects.
644
You probably see birds, too.
645
Reptiles, maybe, maybe not, depending on where you live and how cold it is, what the temperature is like.
646
Fish, do you see fish every day?
647
And I'm not talking about the fish on your dinner plate.
648
I'm talking about fish in the water, right? So.
649
Maybe you see fish in the water, but probably most of us don't see fish, unless we have an aquarium at home and we have pet fish at home.
650
So think about that.
651
What kinds of animals, or what kind of animals, what types of animals do you see every day?
652
It's interesting to think about that.
653
Okay, let's move on to this skill.
654
Now, we have our reading skill here, classify, and that was a good reading passage for this type of organization,
655
Because the topic sentence said there are many kinds of animals, then it listed those different kinds of animals and gave us some details about each.
656
So what we can do is we can classify, we can put the animals into different groups, and that's classifying.
657
When you take a large group and you pick out individuals from that group and you put them into categories, that's called classifying.
658
And that's what we're doing here.
659
Animal groups.
660
So over here we have the different groups or the categories.
661
This is how we classify animals.
662
This is the name of the group.
663
And these are the characteristics that are unique to that classification.
664
So first we have mammal.
665
Mammal give birth to live.
666
So we need A and these are words that we need to choose from.
667
Insect, young, scales, bird, wet.
668
So what is the characteristic about mammals?
669
Mammals give birth to live what?
670
Insects?
671
That would be crazy.
672
Mammals give birth to live young.
673
I'm sure that's what we learned about mammals, right?
674
We learned that that's one of the characteristics about mammals that they give birth to live young.
675
Not to insects, not to scales, not to birds, and not to webs.
676
Young is the only one that really fits there, right?
677
Now over here the question is in the category B.
678
What is it?
679
We don't know.
680
We have to look at the characteristic, kind of like the definition, to figure out what is the category over here.
681
Let's take a look.
682
Feathers and wings.
683
So we're looking for a type, a classification of animal that has feathers and wings. Which one?
684
If you choose bird, of course you would be right.
685
Birds have feathers and wings.
686
Okay, let's look at the last category.
687
Actually, the last category is very easy.
688
It's already done for you.
689
We have the classification, reptile, and we have the characteristic about it, dry skin.
690
So reptiles have dry skin.
691
Okay, let's move on.
692
We have the next three.
693
Amphibian is the classification.
694
We have smooth.
695
What kind of skin?
696
Smooth and what kind of skin?
697
When we talked about amphibians, we said something special about their skin.
698
So what's about their skin is special?
699
Smooth, wet skin, right?
700
It's smooth and wet.
701
Those amphibians have smooth and wet skin.
702
That makes them different, of course, from reptiles that have dry and rough skin, not smooth.
703
Here we have fish.
704
Fish have what on their bodies?
705
What do fish have on their bodies that sets them apart?
706
Insect, young, scales, bird, wet?
707
Scales, of course, is the correct answer.
708
We saw a close -up of that picture of the fish.
709
They have scales on their bodies.
710
So that's the unique characteristic about fish, they have scales on their bodies.
711
Now we have the last problem, E.
712
We don't know what the group is, but we can see the characteristic or the definition.
713
Three body parts and six legs, you got it?
714
If you chose insect, you would be correct.
715
Because insects have three body parts, six legs.
716
Remember, Spiders are not insects, they have eight legs.
717
Okay, there's no spider.
718
Okay, let's wrap up with some comprehension questions.
719
We have, of course, these different sentences.
720
We need to fill in the blank with the correct word, A, B, or C.
721
Let's take a look at question number one.
722
Fish have scales, live in beep, and lay eggs.
723
Okay, so actually we're talking about three different facts about fish, right?
724
That's true.
725
Fish have scales, yes.
726
They lay eggs, yes, but where do they live?
727
That's our question.
728
Where do they live?
729
They live in A, water, B, wet, or C, land.
730
Well, right away we can see wet isn't correct because wet is an adjective.
731
You live in a place, a noun.
732
You don't live in a wet.
733
That's really strange.
734
Also, we can see the preposition is wrong.
735
You live on land.
736
You live on land.
737
You don't live in land.
738
You live on land.
739
You live in water.
740
And fish live in water.
741
They don't live on land.
742
So water would be the correct answer.
743
Fish have scales, live in water and lay eggs.
744
That's the correct answer there.
745
Let's move on to number 2.
746
A mammal.
747
A mammal is an animal that gives birth to A.
748
Live adults.
749
B. Live young.
750
C. Live eggs.
751
That's interesting.
752
Live eggs?
753
What is a live egg?
754
It's an egg that hops around?
755
That's crazy.
756
So we can probably get rid of that right away.
757
So a mammal is an animal that gives birth to live adults?
758
It gives birth and it's already an adult?
759
That's kind of silly too, isn't it?
760
So really, our only correct answer would be live young.
761
A mammal is an animal.
762
Sounds kind of interesting.
763
A mammal is an animal.
764
A mammal is an animal that gives birth to live young.
765
Okay, and that's true.
766
That's one of the characteristics of mammals.
767
Okay, let's move on to the three and four.
768
Number three, amphibians have smooth, wet skin, which?
769
Because of this word, which, here, we know that we need something that describes the skin smooth, wet skin, and we need something else about that skin.
770
Okay, so let's look at the answers.
771
A, which enables them to live on land and in water?
772
B, which most use to lay eggs in water?
773
They use their skin to lay eggs in water?
774
That sounds strange.
775
How can you use your skin to lay eggs?
776
C means that they cannot live in water.
777
Well, smooth, wet skin allows them to live in water.
778
We learned that, so C isn't correct.
779
A is our correct answer.
780
Amphibians have smooth, wet skin which enables them to live on land and in water.
781
Okay, number 4, a spider.
782
No spiders.
783
Okay, a spider is not an insect.
784
Why is a spider not an insect?
785
We've talked about that a few times.
786
A spider is not an insect because A, it does not have bones.
787
Well, that's not true because insects don't have bones.
788
So, that's not the correct answer.
789
I mean, just because a spider, it's true, a spider doesn't have bones, but insects also, they don't have bones either, do they?
790
So that's not the correct answer.
791
A spider is not an insect because it has eight legs, not six legs.
792
That's it right there, right?
793
A spider has eight legs.
794
Insects have six legs.
795
Spiders have eight legs.
796
So spiders are not insects.
797
See, it has six legs, not eight legs.
798
No, that's not correct.
799
They just switch the numbers around trying to confuse you, right?
800
So B is the correct answer.
801
Spiders are not an insect because remember, spiders have eight legs.
802
They're kind of scary.
803
Anyway, let's do the final review, the final slide here.
804
Let's talk about these different types of animals.
805
We have lots of different types of animals here.
806
We can talk about what group they are in.
807
Remember, we were talking about six different groups.
808
So we have one group, two group, third group, fourth group, fifth group, and sixth group what are these different groups?
809
So if we would say this one looks like polar bears, what can we say about polar bears?
810
We can say they have hair or fur on their bodies.
811
They also give birth to live young.
812
So we say they are mammals.
813
Over here we have a frog.
814
What can we say about the frog?
815
What kind of skin does it have?
816
It has wet, smooth skin.
817
Where does a frog live?
818
It lives on the land, it can also live in the water, so it is an amphibian.
819
Over here we have two ducks.
820
What can we say about ducks?
821
They have two legs, two wings, and they have feathers on their body.
822
So what does that make them?
823
That makes them birds.
824
This is a bird, two birds.
825
Over here we have a picture of a fish.
826
What can we say about the fish?
827
The fish lives in water.
828
And interesting thing about fish, they have scales, right?
829
They have scales on their bodies, okay?
830
Just like a reptile, this animal, sorry, this animal also has scales, but this has scales as well.
831
We call this, of course, a fish.
832
The fish live underwater.
833
They have scales on their body.
834
They are fish.
835
And I already gave away the answer to this one, didn't I?
836
But this, of course, is a lizard.
837
A lizard is a type of reptile because it has dry, rough skin, it has scales, and it lives on land.
838
Over here, what do we have here?
839
We have an ant.
840
Ants are very busy, ants are very strong.
841
What about the ant can we say about the ant?
842
What can we say about the ant?
843
Well, the ant has three body parts, the head, the thorax, the abdomen, three body parts it has six legs.
844
One, two, three, four, five, six.
845
So, of course, this is an insect.
846
Okay, so that wraps up our six animal groups.
847
So, when we talk about animals, we can classify them into different groups.
848
What group does that animal belong to?
849
That's called classification.
850
And it's a very interesting, very exciting to look at different animals and think about what group they are in and what unique characteristics make them part.
851
Okay, well I hope you've learned a lot.
852
I've learned a little bit in this lesson.
853
Hope you have too.
854
And watch out for those spiders, okay?
855
Okay, I'm sorry.
856
Spiders are good things to have around.
857
They eat insects that you don't want, but they can be a little scary.
858
But don't hurt the spiders.
859
They can help you out.
860
Anyway, take care everybody.
861

Gramática neste vídeo
As estruturas que o falante mais usa, com as palavras exatas do vídeo:
| Estrutura | No vídeo |
|---|---|
| Frases condicionais if + oração, will/would + verbo — uma condição e seu resultado | If you chose amphibian, then you would be · If you chose true, you'd be · If you chose insect, you would be |
| Present perfect have/has + particípio passado — uma ação passada que ainda importa agora | we've looked · Have you seen · I've never seen |
| Voz passiva be + particípio passado — o foco está no que acontece, não em quem faz | is probably given · are constructed · are organized |
| Possibilidade com “might / may” might/may + verbo — algo possível, mas não certo | might think · may not think · might eat |
Pronúncia para ficar de olho
O falante usa 110 contrações e formas reduzidas, como don't, we're, they're. Diga-as na forma curta, do jeito que você ouve.
- Os sons de “th”: smooth /smuːð/, feather /ˈfɛðə/, breathe /bɹiːð/, bath /bɑːθ/, sixth /sɪksθ/
- Os sons de “sh” e “zh”: shell /ʃɛl/, classification /ˌklæsɪfɪˈkeɪʃən/, sheep /ˈʃiːp/, illustration /ˌɪləsˈtɹeɪ̯ʃən/, comprehension /ˌkɑmpɹɪˈhɛnʃn̩/
- Palavras longas — acerte a sílaba tônica: characteristic /ˌkæɹ(ə)ktəˈɹɪstɪk/, underwater /ʌndɚˈwɔtəɹ/, classification /ˌklæsɪfɪˈkeɪʃən/, magnificent /mæɡˈnɪfəsənt/, illustration /ˌɪləsˈtɹeɪ̯ʃən/
Sons difíceis para falantes de português:
- Consoante final — sem acrescentar um “i” depois: insect /ˈɪn.sɛkt/, characteristic /ˌkæɹ(ə)ktəˈɹɪstɪk/, egg /ɛɡ/, lizard /ˈlɪzɚd/, duck /dʌk/
- /l/ final — a língua toca o céu da boca, não vira “u”: whale /ˈweɪl/, shell /ʃɛl/, gill /ɡɪl/, enable /ɪˈneɪ.bəl/, crawl /kɹɔːl/
- /h/ — um sopro suave, diferente do “r”: hop /hɒp/, comprehension /ˌkɑmpɹɪˈhɛnʃn̩/
Como praticar com este vídeo
- Ouça o vídeo inteiro uma vez sem falar e anote as palavras que você não conhece.
- Comece na velocidade 0,75×, faça shadowing frase por frase e volte à velocidade normal quando ficar fácil.
- Grave a sua voz e compare com o original, prestando atenção a palavras como insect, bone, spider.
O que é a Técnica de Shadowing?
Shadowing é uma técnica de aprendizado de idiomas com base científica, originalmente desenvolvida para o treinamento de intérpretes profissionais. O método é simples, mas poderoso: você ouve áudio em inglês nativo e repete imediatamente em voz alta — como uma sombra seguindo o falante com 1-2 segundos de atraso. Pesquisas mostram melhora significativa na precisão da pronúncia, entonação, ritmo, sons conectados, compreensão auditiva e fluência na fala.
