World Penguin Day happens on or around April 25th each year. This is the time when millions of penguins migrate north. Unlike other birds that migrate each year, penguins do not fly. Instead, they walk, or waddle to their new home and breeding grounds. It’s a long journey across the ice. Perhaps you saw an example of the migration in the movie ‘Happy Feet’. Many people believe there are penguins at the North Pole, but this is not true. Penguins hold a special place in our hearts. Children love looking at these lovable birds in zoos and aquariums. There are about twenty different species of penguin around the world. They are unique because they do not fear humans, but they rarely get closer than three metres to a person.
每年的4月25日左右为世界企鹅日。数百万企鹅会在此季节向北方迁徙。不像其它鸟类，企鹅不会飞。而是一摇一摆地走到繁殖地。这将是一次漫长的极地旅行。你或许已经在电影《快乐的大脚》中略睹企鹅迁徙风采。许多人认为企鹅生活在北极，但这并不正确。企鹅在人们心中占据特殊地位。孩子们能够在动物园，海洋馆中观赏企鹅。世界上的企鹅种类约20种。也由于企鹅不惧怕人类而显得极为特殊，但它从不会走进距离在3米以内的区域
There are many things you can do on World Penguin Day. Perhaps the best thing is to donate some money to a charity that helps protect these beautiful creatures. Some penguins are endangered and need our help to survive. There are also fun things that penguin lovers around the world do. For example, why not wear clothes with penguiny colours? If you do this with a group of friends, you could make your very own penguin colony. There are plenty of penguin websites on the Internet for you to find out some more information on penguins. My favourite is PenguinGeek. This site even has live web cams to view penguins around the world. Alternatively, you could rent ‘March of the Penguins’ from your video store. Happy World Penguin Day.
在世界企鹅日，我们可以进行许多活动。最好是向慈善协会捐款，为保护美丽的企鹅尽职尽责。许多企鹅濒临灭绝，他们需要我们的帮助。对于全球的企鹅迷，我们还可以举办许多有趣活动。为什么不穿上企鹅颜色衣服？如果我们“组团”活动，你就拥有了自己的“企鹅群落”。我们还有许多关于企鹅的网站，你可以在那里寻找一些关于企鹅的信息。我最喜欢的网站是“PenguinGeek”。该网站甚至拥有实时摄像，让你领略全世界的企鹅。此外，你还可以在音像店借阅《帝企鹅日记》纪录片。企鹅日快乐！
