四、阅读理解（每题2分，共10分）
Scientists like to study weather. It is probably because many places in our world are becoming hotter and the weather is becoming stranger. Unluckily, we may not be able to stop these variations. Why The weather on our planet (行星) is so difficult to understand!
Here is an example of our world's strange weather: one Roman man wrote about frogs (青蛙) raining from the skies almost 2,000 years ago. Can this be true Yes, it can! And, not only can frogs “rain”, but also fish and other small animals. This can sometimes happen when a storm brings very strong winds which blow (吹) over the tops of oceans or lakes. Small frogs and fish are not very heavy, so the winds take them to the skies and then they come back down with rain.
The frog rain is not new in many places. In 2005, people in the European country of Serbia walked outside their homes after a storm, and couldn't believe their eyes. Hundreds of frogs were trying to jump back to water. The Huffington Post, an online news service, tells of many more places in the world where this has happened.
If you are interested to see what “raining frogs” looks like, you can go to watch the 1999 movie Magnolia. It shows a big number of frogs falling down in a small town in America.
请根据短文填空，每空不得多于3个单词。
