Penguins（企鵝） live together, but each pair has a little ground of their own. When a penguin wants to walk through its neighbor’s （鄰居） ground, it must ask permission（允許）. If it does not, it will have to fight. Penguins come and to all day. They catch fish and look after their children.
All penguins are good parents-the male（雄性的）penguins are perhaps the best parents in the world. They walk in from the sea in the middle of the dark Antarctic（南極的） water.

If the eggs get cold, there will be no chicks（幼鳥）. There is no food. The snow falls and the wind blows sometimes at 150 kilometers an hour. The penguins do not move. When the females return from the sea, they will not remember their husbands．It does not matter.

Tsunamis are especially dangerous for children．By Wednesday，nearly 60，000 people died because of the tsunamis．30％of them were children。and most of them were 5 t0 12 years old．
