A Big Cat

A Big Cat The average cat weighs about five or six kilograms. And most cats like to catch mice. But there is one cat who doesn't bother with mice. His name is Hercules. You see, Hercules weighs over 400 kilograms. He is two metres tall and three metres long! He prefers to eat much bigger things than mice. He is the biggest cat in the world. Hercules was born in a zoo. His father was a lion and his mother was a tiger. He is called a Liger.

一只大猫 猫的平均体重约为五到六公斤。大多数猫喜欢抓老鼠。但是有一种猫不喜欢老鼠。 他的名字叫赫拉克勒斯。你看，他重达400多公斤。他有两米高，三米长! 他喜欢吃比老鼠大得多的东西。 他是世界上最大的猫。赫拉克勒斯出生在动物园里。他的父亲是狮子，母亲是老虎。他被称为狮虎兽。

You would think that something so big must not be able to move very fast. How can he? But Hercules can run at 90 kilometres per hour. And he needs this exercise because he eats 100 pounds of food for every meal! That would be a lot of mice!

你可能会认为这么大的东西一定不能移动得很快。他能多快呢? 但他能跑90公里每小时。 他需要这个锻炼，因为他每顿饭要吃100磅的食物! 那将会吃掉很多老鼠!
