Sure, human dads can play catch and help with homework, but can they give birth? Daddy sea horses can! This Father’s Day, while you’re showing respect to your dad, remember some of the best dads in the world can also be found in the animal kingdom.
Sea Horses: The "Mr. Moms" of the marine world, male sea horses, carry up to 2,000 fertilized eggs in pouches in their stomachs until they hatch. Even after the babies are born, they stay inside the pouch until they are ready to venture out on their own.
Microhylid Frogs: Buy these dads a "Baby on Board" sign to put on their backs! These froggy fathers from New Guinea play piggyback once their babies hatch from their eggs. One by one, the dad lets as many as 24 froglets climb onto his back for a family road trip. He hops about 50 feet each night, and one by one, his kids jump off along the way to begin new lives of their own.
Darwin's Rheas: Thought your dad was overprotective? Darwin's rhea, also known as South American ostriches（鴕鳥）, are so protective of their children that they routinely rush cowboys on horseback and have even been known to attack small airplanes on the ground if they get too close to their brood!
Marmosets: These little monkeys do everything but Lamaze class（心理助產課）! Dedicated dads assist during labor by biting off the umbilical cord（臍帶）and cleaning up the afterbirth. They also let Mom get some R&R（rest & recreation）by taking care of the kids when they're not nursing.
Sand Grouse: Talk about sponging off Dad! These pigeon-like birds live in areas where water is sparse, so fathers fly as many as 50 miles to get water for their kids. After they soak up the water in their breast feathers, they fly home and let their chicks suckle the moisture from their bodies.
Fathers of the animal kingdom are not that different from our own beloved dads. This Father's Day, when you are honoring your dad, honor animal dads, too, by practicing kindness and compassion toward all animals.
59．The passage is mainly written to________.
A．introduce to us some unusual animals
B．distinguish between human and animal dads
C．raise our awareness of animal protection
D．praise animal dada for their sacrifices
60．Among these animal dads, which have the ability to fly?
A．Microhylid Frogs. B．Sea Horses. C．Darwin’s Rheas. D．Sand Grouses.
61．What these animals have in common is that .
A．they carry their young to wherever they please
B．they’re all devoted to their children
C．they’re overprotective of their children
D．they help their wives clean up the afterbirth
62．When Microhylid Frogs play piggyback, they___________.
A．let their kids ride on their back B．attack cowboys with their back
C．carry their babies inside a pouch D．help their wife during the labor
