A Salmon 大馬哈魚
The salmon is a very strange fish. It is born in a river. But the young salmon takes 2 years to swim down the rivers towards the Pacific Ocean. For another 2 years it lives in the sea and becomes full grown. Then it returns to the river where it was born.
A group-up salmon weighs about 25 pounds and is nearly three feet long. The female salmon will not lay the eggs in the Pacific Ocean. When it is almost time to lay them, both male and female salmon begin a great journey. Each salmon is heading for the river where it was born. A salmon may be a thousand miles from where its life began, yet it is able to return to that place.
After they enter the rivers, they head upstream. If rocks and waterfalls are in their way, the salmon leap over them. A salmon can leap up a waterfall as high as ten feet. It leaps by swimming at full speed under water, then rising to the surface. Almost the whole body of a salmon is made of muscle. The powerful muscles make the salmon fit for fast swimming, turning quickly, and leaping high out of the water.
Some reach their river in summer, others in the early autumn. They have come hundreds, even thousands of miles and it has taken them weeks and months.
大馬哈魚是一種很奇怪的魚，它出生在河裏，但是小大馬哈魚花兩年時間順流而下向太平洋游去，在海里，它生活兩年，長成後，再返回出生的河裏。
一條成年的大馬哈魚約25英鎊，有近三英尺，雌性大馬哈魚不會在太平洋產卵。當它需要產卵時，雄性和雌性大馬哈魚開始了它們偉大的旅程。每條大馬哈魚都會朝它出生的河流進發，它可能會有一千英里的路途，但它卻能夠到達。
在進入河流後，它們逆流而上，如果遇到岩石或瀑布，大馬哈魚會跳過它們，大馬哈魚能跳到高達十英尺。它是通過在水下高速行進，然後跳出，然後跳出水面。大馬哈魚幾乎身體的所有部分都是肌肉。強有力的肌肉使大馬哈魚適合於快速游泳，很快拐彎，高高地跳出水面。
一些大馬哈魚在夏天到達它們的出生地，一些在早秋到達。它們花費數週甚至數月時間走過數百英里、甚至數千英里路途。
