Describe a time when you saw an interesting animal.What happened when you saw itAnd explain why you thought it was interesting.1.For this topic, I would like to talk about the sloth.2.Sloths have short, flat heads, big eyes; short snouts, long legs, and tiny ears. Some species have stubby tails.树懒头骨短而高,有大大的眼睛,塌塌鼻,长长的腿和小耳朵。有些种类的树懒有着短而粗的尾巴。3. Altogether, sloths' bodies are usually between 50 and 60 cm long.总的来说,树懒身体的长度一般在50厘米到60厘米之间。4.Sloths are hilariously slow in Disney’s latest movie 'Zootopia’.树懒在迪士尼新推出的电影“疯狂动物城”中缓慢的节奏非常滑稽搞笑。5. This was a smash hit internationally, as it appealed to all age groups.这部电影在世界范围内是一个巨大的成功,因为各个年龄群体都会被吸引。6. I remembered a popular scene in this movie that a fast-moving bunny is trying to get some work done, while the sloth named 'Flash’ actually works really really slow.我记得在这个电影中一个很火的场景:一只动作敏捷的兔子在试图完成一些工作,但是片中名为“闪电”的树懒实际上工作起来非常非常慢。7.Besides, they are experts in playing cute. I think that's probably the reason why so many people like sloths.除此之外,它们还是卖萌界的专家。我觉得这也是为什么那么多人喜欢树懒的原因。8.What strikes me the most is that sloths are 'vegans’, they eat leaves, flower petals and other plant products. They are essentially herbivores.让我印象最深刻的是树懒是“素食主义者”,它们吃树叶,花瓣还有其他的植物产品。它们本质上来说是食草动物。9.They can be compared to koala bears in some ways, as they are both considered to be bone-idle.从某些方面来说,树懒还可以和考拉熊作对比,因为它们都被认为懒到家了。10.So I think it’s a really interesting animal and I hope to see it in the flesh one day.所以我觉得它真的是一个有趣的动物,我喜欢有一天我可以亲眼见到它。- 树懒的英文叫sloth,这个名词除了指树懒,还相当于laziness,比如有这么个例句:He should overcome his natural sloth.
- 树懒的鼻子叫做snout,这个形容词用在树懒身上就是形容它的塌塌鼻啦。
- stubby 这个形容词表示短而粗的 这里形容树懒的尾巴
- hilariously副词表示滑稽的,在这里形容slow我们可以用这样的词来替换very, quite等
- 口语中形容......对于我印象最深刻可以用这个高分表达What strikes me the most,除此之外还可以用what impressed me the most或者是impressively
- vegan 这个词本身指的是素食主义者,这里是拟人的用法,形容树懒吃素。
