Penguins live together, but each pair has a little piece of ground of their o
own
. When a penguin wants to walk t
through
its neighbour's ground, it must ask for permission (许可). If it does not do that, it will have to fight. Most of the time, penguins live in water. They eat shellfish and l
look
after their children carefully.
All penguins are good p
parents
—male (雄性的) penguins are among the most dedicated fathers in the w
world
. They walk in the Antarctic water. They choose their wives in the dark. They can only h
hear
them—not see them. Then female penguins lay their e
eggs
and are away for about two months. Males t
take
care of the eggs. If the eggs get cold, there will be no chicks. There is no food. Snow falls heavily (猛烈地) and wind blows s
strongly
—sometimes at 150 kilometres an hour. Male penguins do not move. When females r
return
from the sea, they will find their husbands. Male penguins never fight—unless a penguin leaves a chick alone. They then fight because they all want it. They are strange but wonderful birds.
