Ⅲ 阅读理解。

Theres nothing quite like falling sound asleep after a full day of work. Like people， animals

need to rest after working hard. Some animals sleep in water. Others dig holes under the ground.

Some even sleep high in trees or under leaves. But they all find a way to rest. Some animals in the

sea sleep in strange ways. Fish sleep with their eyes open. They seem to look ahead far into the sea

while they rest. Sea otters sometimes sleep in beds of the plants that grow in the sea. This keeps

them from moving away. Parrotfish blow something from their mouths when they are ready to sleep.

Then a bubble （气泡） will be formed around them. The bubble protects them from harm while they

sleep.

扫码跟读

Some animals sleep under the ground. Chipmunks （花栗鼠） sleep curled up （蜷缩） in a ball.

Their beds are made of leaves and grass. In winter， they sleep for two weeks and wake up to eat the

stored food. Then they go back to sleep for another two weeks before waking up again. Some desert

frogs dig underground holes during the hot， dry season. A frog may stay in its hole for months.

High above the ground， monkeys find leafy places in trees each evening before they sleep. The

tall trees help to keep monkeys safe during the night. Some insects even sleep under the leaf that

will be their next meal. A bee may climb down into a flower to rest. When it climbs out the next

morning， it is rested and ready for work.
