食物链 谢丽尔·瑞安 著

All plants need food in order to live. Green plants make food. They need air, water, and sunlight to make food. Most plants need soil, too.

所有植物都需要食物才能存活。 绿色植物会制造食物。 它们需要空气、水和阳光来制造食物。 大多数植物也需要土壤。

All animals need food in order to live. These animals eat plants. They are called plant eaters.

所有动物都需要食物才能存活。 这些动物吃植物。 它们被称为食草动物。

These animals eat other animals. They are called meat eaters.

这些动物吃其他动物。 它们被称为食肉动物。

Plant eaters and meat eaters are part of a food chain. Most food chains begin with plants. The plants make food which animals eat. Let's look at a food chain.

食草动物和食肉动物都是食物链的一部分。 大多数食物链都从植物开始。 植物制造出动物们吃的食物。 我们一起来看看一条食物链吧。

A grasshopper eats the leaves of a plant. The grasshopper grows bigger. A frog eats the grasshopper. The frog grows bigger.

蚱蜢吃植物的叶子。 蚱蜢越长越大。 青蛙吃掉了蚱蜢。 青蛙越长越大。
