二、阅读选择。
Many people have already known that koalas are a symbol of Australia. However, few people know that kangaroos(袋鼠) are another symbol of the country. When I volunteered at a zoo in Australia, I learned a lot about kangaroos.
Whenever they want to go somewhere, they jump instead of walking or running. Most adult kangaroos reach up to 1.6 meters in height and weigh between 60 and 80 kg. They can jump the highest and farthest on the earth. Some strong kangaroos can jump as far as 13 meters. While they're jumping, their tails play an important part in keeping them safe.
You may be worried that if they meet tigers or lions they will be in danger. Well, their strong legs can provide them with the best protection. Kangaroos' jumping force is so strong that it can easily kill any animal.
What kangaroos interest visitors the most may be their "bags" around their stomachs. That's where they keep their babies for 7 months. The bags provide a good environment for babies to grow.
Do you know why Australians like kangaroos and even put them in their national emblem(国徽)? Kangaroos always jump forward. Australians want to keep the spirit of progress.
