1. Whales are sea-living mammals. They therefore breathe air but cannot
survive on land. Some species are very large indeed and blue whale, which
can exceed 30 cm in length, is the largest animal to have lived on earth.
Superficially, the whale looks rather like a fish, but there are important
differences in its external structure: its tail consists of a pair of broad, flat,
horizontal paddles (the tail of a fish is vertical) and it has a single nostril on
top of its large, broad head. The skin is smooth and shiny and beneath it lies
a layer of fat (blubber). This is up to 30 cm in thickness and serves to
conserve heat and body fluids.
What is the main idea of the text?
a. Whale looks rather like a fish.
b. Whale cannot survive on land.
c. Blue whale is a large animal.
Whales are sea living mammals.
