Dolphins are not fish. They are mammals(哺乳动物). They live in groups and speak to each other in their own language. But?they?are?quite different from almost all land animals.? Their brain(大脑)is as big as men's and?they?live a long life at least 20 or 30 years.
Like some animals,?dolphins?use sounds to ?help them ?find their way around.??They?also use these?sounds to talk to each other and to help them find food.?They?do ?not?use their ears to receive sounds,but use the jaw--the lower part of ??the mouth.
?It is strange that?dolphins?are?friendly to men,? and for thousands of ?years, ??there?are?many stories?about?dolphins?and men. In the 19th century, in a dangerous ??part of? the sea near New Zealand, there?was a dolphin. The seamen liked him very much and gave him a very good name, Jack. From 1871 to?1903 ,Jack met every boat in the area and showed it the way. In 1903 a passenger on a boat with the name of The Penguin shot and hurt Jack. Luckily the dolphin didn't die,?and after a? long time he was?well again. He guided the ships through the area for nine more years, but he ?refused to help the boat of the Penguin.
Today, some people still kill?dolphins, but many countries in the world now protect them. In these?places, people?are?not?allowed to kill them.
