Passage 3
Some animals sleep during the winter because the weather is very cold and it is difficult for them to find food. They sleep for a long time. This kind of winter sleep is called hibernation(冬眠).
If an animal moves a lot, it needs lots of food. Hibernating animals do not need to eat much because they don’t
move about. Their hearts beat(跳动) very slowly and they also breathe slowly. They always find a place out of danger. Their body fat can keep them warm.
Some animals, like bears, may wake up from their hibernation in warm winter days and then quickly go back to sleep again when they see there is still snow outside. When the weather becomes warmer in spring, the animals start to wake up and look for food again.
79．Why do some animals hibernate in winter

In Thailand, there are many elephants. The elephant is one of Thailand’s symbols. You can find a white elephant on their first flag. Every year, many people come to Thailand to see elephants there.
