The Tyrannosaurus rex, also known as T-rex, was one of the largest land animals to have ever Uved.
The T-rex could grow to 12 metres in length. If we compared it now, it would be a little longer than
a bus. It lived in what is now western North America and may have even been partly covered in
feathers. The T-rex was a hungry meat eater and the best hunter with strong mouth and had up
to 60 teeth. Some of these teeth could grow to be almost thirty centimetres long. The T-rex was a

“ Fish and chips” is a famous British dish. It was invented in the 1800s. Before then,
fried fish
was popular in England. Around the same time, thin cut fried potatoes, or “chips” were popular
in Scotland. Shop owners served fish and chips with salt and vinegar. Londoners loved the new
dish a lot because it was cheap and delicious. Later, during World War II, Britain didn’t have
much food. However, there were still many fish and many potatoes. For that reason, many shops
selling fish and chips were opened throughout the country. In this way, fish and chips became
Britain’s favourite and famous dish. Today, every British town has a fish and chips shop. People
call these shops “chippies”. The dish is still served with salt and vinegar. But now there are more
side orders,
such as tomato sauce, spicy sauce, peas, and onions. “ Fish and chips” has spread to
other countries too. Now it is loved all over the world.
