New Dinosaur Species Discovered

Woah! Look what I found! What an interesting seashell! I like digging in the sand and dirt, because you can find interesting things buried in the ground. 我喜歡挖泥土，因為地底下可以找到有趣的東西。 And sometimes the things you find can be old and special. For example, some researchers in England recently found something very interesting in the ground… dinosaur bones! These bones are extra special because they are from dinosaurs that experts have never seen before. 專家從來沒有看過這種恐龍的化石。 They found bones that belonged to two new kinds of dinosaur. One of the dinosaurs had a face like a crocodile. It also had horns and bumps around its forehead. 其中一隻的臉像鱷魚，頭上還長了角。 The other dinosaur also had a very long face, and it had many teeth. 另外一隻的臉很長，有很多牙齒！ And both were very large… about 9 meters long. 兩隻都有九公尺長。 That is about the size of a bus! 跟中型巴士一樣大！ It took the experts a few years to dig up all of these bones. 把這些骨頭挖出來花了專家好幾年的時間。 If you want to see these bones, you can! You just need to go to England to the Dinosaur Isle Museum. The Dinosaur Isle Museum has around 30 thousand things people found digging in the ground. What do you think?
