6 The cheetah It can run at 100 kilometres an hour on level ground. But it can run at this speed only over a short distance. FINDING OUT ANSWERS TO A QUIZ Edwin (E) and Cecilia (C) have found the answers to the quiz. Listen to them talking about what they found Out. LISTENING TEXT E: Cecelia, whats the longest river? C: The Nile in North and East Africa. Its 6,695 kilometres long. E: So, its not the Yangtze. C: No, thats about 300 kilometres shorter than the Nile. E: Well, I got that one wrong! What about Question 2? C: The largest lake in the world is the Caspian Sea with an area of 371,800 square kilometres. E: But isnt that a saltwater lake? C: Yeah, but the question didnt say anything about whether the lake had to be a saltwater or a freshwater lake. E: No, I guess I was thinking about freshwater lakes. C: Well, I know the answer to that anyway. Lake Superior in North America is the largest freshwater lake and the second largest lake overall.

C: Well, I can tell you the answer to that anyway. Its the African elephant. I found out that the largest specimen ever recorded was shot in 1974. It was 3.96 metres tall and weighed over 12 tonnes. E: Thats so tiny compared to the Blue Whale! What about the last question? C: Well, the answers
