When day came, the sea was quietagain. I looked for our ship and, to my surprise, it was still there. I had toswim to it. I walked down to the sea and before long, I was near the ship and swamround it. But how could I get on to it? In the end, I got in through a hole(洞), but it wasn't easy.
The back of the ship was high outof the water, and I was very thankful for this because all the ship's food wasthere. I was very hungry so I ate something first. Then I began to take some ofit back to the beach with me. But how could I get it there?
I looked around the ship, andafter a few minutes, I found a long piece of wood(木板). Then I got the things that I wanted fromthe ship and put them on the wood. There was a big box of food—rice, meat, and breadand many other things.
Now I had to leave the ship.Slowly and carefully, I went back to the beach. It was difficult to stop mythings from falling into the sea, but in the end I got everything on to the land.

Dolphins are famous tobe very bright. They are good at using whistles(哨声) as their language.
Dolphins usuallylive in groups. A group of dolphins near the beach usually has about 10members. Far away from the beach, groups can be much larger, with hundreds ofmembers. The members in a group are very friendly. They play with each other,talk to each other, and help each other. Dolphins often work together to fightagainst other animals, and find food.
Scientists watchdolphins in the Moreton Bay. Ina studies a group of dolphins for many years.She said, “When the dolphins live on natural food, I think it's more importantfor them to get on with others, or to learn from others, or to work with othersto get food.”
It’s true thatthese friendly dolphins will continue to teach the scientists about their ways,as they live in the clear waters of Moreton Bay.
