Palaeontologists can tell much about how a dinosaur lived from the shape of its teeth or its beak, if it had no front teeth.Giraffes’ teeth are different from zebras’ teeth becau giraffes eat tender leaves from the top of trees, white zebras eat tough, dry grass.In the same way, different families of dinosaurs evolved different kinds of teeth and beaks to cope with a variety of plants.Protoceratops, one of the smaller horned dinosaurs, had a parrot-like beak for shearing off plant stems, and scissor-like teeth to slice up its food.Camarasaurus, an 18-m(59-ft)long sauropod, had spoon-like cutting but no grinding teeth.However, it could reach high into trees to tear away leave.Corythosaurus, a duckbill, tore off leaves with its horny beak, stored them in its cheek pouches, then ud rows of strong interlocking teeth to grind them.Plateosaurus, an early, long-necked giant,
had leaf-shaped teeth to pluck off the leaves of soft plants such as ferns.It did not have grinding teeth.Iguanodon browd on tough plants such as hortails, and ud its horny beak to nip off leaves.Its rows of ridged, grinding teeth crushed the leaves into a pulp.STRANGE BUT TRUE Heterodontosaurus, a plant eater from the early Jurassic Period had three kinds of teeth;on the lower jaw it had a horny beak.Then it had two pairs of large, fang-like teeth, with grinding teeth at the back.33.A palaeontologist is a person who studies __________.A.teeth B.giraffes and zebras C.animal eating habits D.life in the distant past活动软文

re not expecting such an ill-mannered reception on the part of your head waiter.Our Chine friends are currently touring the ‘Shakespeare Country’ and were looking forward to a traditional English dinner in such a charming tting.But our hopes for an enjoyable evening out were instantly spoilt when your head waiter informed us that he had received no booking in our name and, so, no table was rerved for our party.My colleague and I protested at this and asked to speak to the Manager, who, we were told, was unavailable.Your staff then offered us a table which we all had to share with another couple and no effort was made to smooth over the unpleasantness we had experienced.We also had to wait for some considerable time before the menu was brought to us.I trust you will give this complaint your prompt attention as the whole embarrassing incident was a great disappointment to our guests and t a bad example to our English hospitality.Yours sincerely, Mr Paul J.Weller
