What Is The Significance Of Rabbit’s Large Ears?


A rabbit is a small furry mammal with a short tail and pointed ears. Ech
burrows in the ground. Each burrow is the home of a single family. The first
fossils which can be attributed to this family came from North America but now
they are found in every part of the world. Compared to its small body, rabbit
has large-sized ears.
A rabbit is a weak and timid animal, it is always surrounded by many
enemies. Therefore, nature has gifted it with large ears to help it to hear even
the fun of drop sound. The large area of the ear cathes almost every sound
wave produced in the air and transfers them into the inner ear. This makes the
rabbit detect its enemies in time and run to safety zone.
You must have noticed that a rabbit washes its ears by repeatedly licking
its forepaws and rubbing them over the surface of its ears clean, and also to take
into its mouth natural oil which sorrounds the ear surface. This oil is imfortant in
forming vitamin D which is necessary for the growth of healty bones. If the
rabbit is not allowed to form this, it will develop rickets.

Dear Mellyani,

On my last school holiday, classmates and I went to


Borobudur. The Borobudur temple is really
magnificent. The hugeness of the temple really
impressed me. How could our ancestors build such a
big temple? It was amazing.

In the temple, we went upstairs step by step.


Walking around the temple, we saw many reliefs on
the temple walls. Some foreigners seemed interested
in them. I overhead their conversation with the
guide, actually the relief tells a story.

It was really a nice experience! I hope you can go


there someday. Mellyani

Dear Kiki,
Last holiday, my brother and I visited our grandparents in Bandar
Lampung. There are many tourist destinations, such as museum, shores,
water park, zoo, and way kambas. During our visit, we decided to go to
way kambas, the elephant training center. We wanted to watch
The huge animals playing football.
Way kambas is situated in East lampung, about 110 km from
Bandar Lampung, the capital city of Lampung. It took 3 hours to reach Way
kambas from our granparent’s home. We left early in the morning at 6
A.M. by car. It would take longer to go to there by motorcycle or bus.
We were lucky to visit the the place on the weekend because the
elephant football show is only held on weekends. The show was great. It
was amazing to see such big animals running and kicking the ball. The ball
was larger thn the one used in regular football. After that we watched
other attractions. My brother had a ride on the big animals, but I didn’t. I
was too nervous to do it.
At 4 P.M., we returned to Bandar Lampung. We were very tired,
but impressed. It was really an interesting experience for us. I hope you
can visit it in the future. By the way, how was your holiday?

Yours.
Miranti

How are you? Do you still remember my last email our family’s plan for the

brochures about…Bunaken!!! I bet you’ll recognize the name. I have never
been to Sulawesi before. The farthest trip I’ve been through so far is
Yogyakarta. This Bunaken trip will be my first to reach the eastern part in

the Bunaken underwater view is. We also have searched for information
about it on the internet. I will take many pictures there so I can show you
