Whales look like the biggest fish in the world, but they are not fish. They belong to mammals(哺乳动物), like dogs and cats. People are mammals too. That means they do not lay eggs. They give birth to(生) babies and feed them milk.
Whales are very big. They breathe with their lungs. They swim in oceans all over the world. They have large brains and live in family groups. The largest type of whale is the blue whale. It grows to be about 100 feet long and weighs(重) about 200 tons!
Do you know how whales get their names? Most whales are often named after how they look. The humpback whale(座头鲸) was named after its humped back.
Whales use sound to sing and hunt. The sound can help whales find other fish or animals and tell the direction. For example, they send out a sound and then listen. The sound waves come back and give them a picture of the things around them.
