Here is a story about animals which lived millions of years ago, and some still survive (живут) today.
During (в течение) the late Triassic* and Jurassic* periods dinosaurs lived. Brachiosaurus [,breiki9’so:r9s] was one of the largest and most massive animals that lived on land. It was 25 metres long and was 60,000 kg. It ate plants and walked on four legs. Crocodiles and alligators appeared (появились) during the same period. They have changed (изменились) little. These animals have four strong legs, but the back legs are stronger. They have a very strong tail. Turtles and tortoises also appeared during the Triassic Period and have changed little. All turtles and tortoises have shells. Tortoises usually have elephantlike legs. They live on land. Turtles are larger than tortoises. They live in rivers and lakes or the sea. The legs of many turtles have changed into flippers (плавники).
