留美老師帶你每日說英文 第821期:大白鯊的呼吸方式
臺灣籍旅美老師今天交給我們的句子是:
Most species can open and close their mouths to pump the water through. But white sharks and a couple dozen other species don't do that. To breathe, they have to move forward through the water with their mouths open.
大部分的魚類可以透過嘴巴交替開合的方式,將水抽吸到鰓裏以獲得氧氣,但是大白鯊和其他幾十種的魚類卻不是這樣的。它們必須張着嘴巴向前遊動才能夠呼吸。
