Judy, the main character, becomes the first rabbit police officer in the city. While solving a mystery（谜团），she meets the smart fox, Nick, who helps her solve the case, and other animals, like the lion mayor（市长）and a sloth called Flash. Here is something more about the movie.There are 64 kinds of animals in the movie. Each kind is special. Elephants have trunks（big noses）, some animals have feet, some have paws, some animals have three fingers while some have two. Judy is a bit different from real rabbits. Real rabbits actually have a split lip（裂唇），but is the film Judy's lip isn't a split one.Film makers learned that not all fur of animals is the same. In the movie, some of polar bear fur is clear. It appears white because of the sunshine. Part of fox fur is dark at the root（根部），getting lighter till its red top. They did so to make the animals in Zootopia very believable.To make the animas look real, the film maker, Nathan Warner with his partners also took a trip to Africa for researching animals. There they had a close watching of different animals. After the trip, they added leaves and sticks to animals' coats like the big sheep. They also make animalstears run from the inside corners of eyes down to the outside of the mouth.19.

The children, 12 to 15 years old, didn't like talking with their parents much. They weren't happy at home. Of course, lots of other children feel that way. But you and your parents will be much happier if you can be friends.Here are some ways to have a good talk with your parents: find a good time to talk, like when you're eating dinner, going out for a walk or watching TV.
