Sample Answer

Introduction

  • Being an ardent fan of marine life, I like aquatic animals.
  • Although there are one million species of marine animals, I like dolphin the most.

When did you see it? , and Where you saw it?

  • When I was in 6th standard, I went to Goa for a school trip.
  • During that trip, I saw a group of dolphins from close.

What it looks like?

  • Dolphins are massive in size.
  • They are classified in three colours which are black, white and grey.
  • Before visiting Goa, I had studied regarding dolphins and found that they are quite intelligent.
  • They have small fins which work like hands.

Explain why it is interesting?

  • Dolphins are an interesting animal to watch because they have this habit of living in groups.
  • All the group members work in tandem to hunt prey, dodge predators, and taking care of sick and old members.
  •  We human beings should start following the footsteps of dolphins for living in a group so that our world would become a better place. 
  • Moreover, it is interesting to see the way a dolphin communicates with other dolphins.
  • It uses non-verbal gestures which make dolphins appear unique.
  • Apart from this, unlike other living beings, dolphins have two stomachs.
  • The first one is used to store food and, the second one fulfils the purpose of digestion.
  • Another prominent feature of dolphins is their intelligence which is second to human beings.
  • I was fortunate to find a knowledgeable guide in Goa who told me that even whales are a part of the dolphin family.
  • I have watched numerous documentaries on dolphins.
  • If I get a chance, I would like to do more research on dolphins.
