The grandfather didn’t answer him,but said,“Take this little basket to the river and bring me back a basket of water.” The boy did as his grandpa said,but all the water leaked out before he got back home.The grandfather laughed and said,“You’ll have to walk faster next time.”
The next time the boy ran faster,but the basket was still empty before he returned home.The boy said,“See,Grandpa,it’s no use!”
“Is it no use ” the old man said.“Look at the basket.”

Different weather makes people feel different.It influences health,intelligence (智力) and feelings.
In August,it is very hot and wet in the southern part of the United States.People there have heart trouble and other kinds of health problems during this month.In the Northeast and the Middle West,it is very hot at some times and very cold at other times.People in these states have more heart trouble after the weather changes in February or March.
The weather can also influence intelligence.For example,in a scientific report,IQ of a group of students was very high when a very strong wind came,but after the strong wind,their IQ was 10% below.The wind can help people have more intelligence.Very hot weather,on the other hand,can make it lower.Students in many schools of the United States often get worse on exams in the hot months of the year (July and August).Weather also has a strong influence on people’s feelings.Winter may be a bad time for thin people.They usually feel cold during these months.They might feel unhappy during cold weather.But fat people may have a hard time in hot summer.At about 18℃,people become stronger.
Low air pressure may make people forgetful.People leave more bags on buses and in shops on low-pressure days.There is a “good weather” for health.People feel best at a temperature of about 18℃.
Are you feeling sad,tired,forgetful,or unhappy today It may be the weather’s problem.

Many people think the dinosaurs were the biggest animals that ever lived.They are wrong.The world’s biggest animal is still living and it lives in the ocean.It is called the blue whale.Blue whales can be as long as 30 metres and weigh as much as 1,000 kilos.The largest dinosaurs weighed only 500 kilos.
The whale is not only the world’s biggest animal,it is also one of the smartest.We know that whales can communicate with each other,although we do not know what they are saying.Perhaps one day we will learn how to communicate with whales,and then they will be able to tell us about themselves.
Although they live in the ocean,whales don’t lay eggs like fish do.They are mammals.They give birth to babies and produce milk inside their own bodies to feed them.Humans are also mammals.
There are lots of stories about whales,but perhaps the most famous story is Moby Dick,which was written by an American writer named Herman Melville.In the book,a sailor named Captain Ahab spends a lot of time trying to find and kill an enormous white whale named Moby Dick.
Sadly,there are not many kinds of whales left.People have killed them for food and other things for thousands of years.However,there are now laws(法律) to stop people killing most kinds of whales.So perhaps there will be more of them in years to come.

How to Survive in an Earthquake
There happened earthquakes in many places recently.The earthquake could cause significant damage.So how to keep safe during an earthquake has become an important issue.Here are some guidelines.
Firstly,don’t be nervous and keep calm.Try to get into an open area away from trees,buildings,walls,signs,power lines and anything else that might fall on you if you are outdoors.
Secondly,if you are indoors,stay there.Quickly move to a safe place in the room such as under a strong desk.Cover your head and neck with your arms.The goal is to protect yourself from falling objects.Avoid taking cover near windows,large mirrors and hanging objects.
Thirdly,never use the lift.
Though we can’t stop earthquakes,we can reduce the damage that earthquakes bring us if we take right measures.
