Passage4
One day , a baby snail (蜗牛）found that he had to carry a big and heavy shell at any time. He was confused (困惑) , so he went up to his mother and asked , “Why was I born with a shell that grew so hard and heavy ” His mother said , “Because we don’t have bones to hold us up . We can only move slowly , so we need a shell to protect us .”
The baby snail asked again , “The caterpillar (毛毛虫) has no bones , either , and she can’t move quickly . Why can she live without a shell ” The mother snail answered , “That’s because a caterpillar will become a butterfly . She can fly high into the sky . The sky can protect her .”
The baby snail had one more question , “But the earthworm(蚯蚓)moves like us . He has no bones and he won’t turn into a butterfly . Why doesn’t he carry a hard and heavy shell ” His mother said , “He can dig a hole and hide in the ground , and then the earth can protect him.”
The baby snail then cried , “We are so poor ! We have no protection from the sky or from the ground !” His mother smiled at him. “That’s why we have a shell . My dear , imagine that if we don’t have the shells , what will happen to us Hot sun will dry out our bodies and we’ll have nowhere to sleep . What’s worse , we’ll die in the heavy rain . How terrible it is ! We don’t depend on the sky or the ground for protection . We should depend on ourselves.”
