My name is Ivan; my nick in the Internet is "bike" because my
favourite hobby is riding a bike. I love riding my bike. I can see
parks and ponds or rivers and fields when I am in the country!
My elder brother Alex is fond of photography. He takes pictures
of everything he sees. He also plays the guitar and sings songs.
I like being with him. My little sister Olga likes dolls, of course.
She's got a big collection. Some of them are from foreign coun-
tries. Our dad is a real sportsman. He plays football and likes
swimming. He swims all the year round, in the river, in the sea
or in the swimming pool. Mum prefers classical music and inter-
esting books. She can play the piano. Our cat Vasily also has a
hobby, he likes sleeping and eating! In the evening we like get-
ting together, talking and listening to some music.

Dolphins are cetacean mammals closely related to whales and porpoises. There are almost forty species of dolphin in 17 genera. They vary in size from 1.2 m (4 ft) and 40 kg (90 lb) (Maui's dolphin), up to 9.5 m (30 ft) and 10 tonnes (9.8 long tons; 11 short tons) (the orca or killer whale). They are found worldwide, mostly in the shallower seas of the continental shelves and are carnivores, eating mostly fish and squid. The family Delphinidae, the largest in the order Cetacea, evolved relatively recently, about ten million years ago during the Miocene.
