Ice Eating Giraffes (氷を食べるキリン) – Level 2

Let’s read aloud first. 最初に声を出して読んでみましょう。

The city of Skopje in North Macedonia had high temperature at around 40C. The animals were feeling hot. Therefore, the zookeepers in the zoo cooled them by giving them blocks of ice. The blocks of ice had fresh fruit and vegetables like onions, apples and carrots and zucchini which were freshly prepared in zoo kitchen. Two giraffes named Casper and Floppy came to the zoo three years ago with this special treat in the summer season. These giraffes came from Africa. Though giraffes were used to the African heat, the zookeepers felt that it was best to cool them.
