The llama is a member of the camel family. Like the camel, the llama can live for weeks without a drink of water. Both get enough moisture from the grass, shrubs, and other plants they eat. But unlike the camel, the llama has no hump on its back.
The llama is large and has long, soft hair. It is used as a pack animal in South America because it can carry heavy loads safely over narrow mountain tracks. It is tame, but it can be stubborn and bad-tempered. When angry, it spits. If you see a llama curling its big lips, move away as quickly as you can!
And don't ever overload a llama. If you do, it won't move an inch.

We are going to see the ruins of Machu Picchu in the mountains of the Andes.Machu Picchu was forgotten for centuries but discovered in 1911 by Hiram Bingham, a professor from Yale.It is said to be one of the most beautiful ancient sites in the world.
The Incas built the ancient civilization of Machu Picchu between the 12th century and the early 16th century.They spoke a language called Quechua but had no writing system at all.They kept records on various coloured strings with knots called quipu.
The Incas proved to be wonderful architects.They built most of their buildings with huge stones but without using any cement(粘结材料) to stick them together.However, the huge stones fit together so perfectly that you cannot force a sharp knife between two blocks.They also built bridges, tunnels through mountains and channels to bring water to their cities—just as the Romans did.The Incas turned the mountains into farmlands and planted corn and potatoes, and raised animals like llama and alpaca for food.
Now Machu Piccu has become a major tourist site in Peru, attracting people from all over the world.
