die – dead – death (also: extinct) Interviewer: Professor, I know the dinosaur has been dead for a long time, but do we know exactly when the last dinosaur died? Professor: Well, with modern scientific tests we are almost sure the last dinosaur died about 70 million years ago. Interviewer: I'd also like to know how the dinosaur died. Professor: There are many ideas about the death of the dinosaur. Some people say it died because of the cold weather. Some say it died because it became too big. Personally I think the death of the dinosaur is still a mystery.
