18、seashells where they belong-at the seashore!Some people even make fake seashells that they hope the hermit crabs will like.For example,a group called Project Shelter invited people who visited their website to create different designs for hermit crab shells.These designers had a lot to consider.

19、t kind of material should be used to build a seashells.The material must be light enough for the hermit crab to carry,but strong enough to protect the crab from predators. The man-made shells could not contain glue or any other substance(物质)that might harm a hermit crab. Another challenge with build
20、ing a hermit crab home was the opening to the shell.

25、as well as his servant.With the help of Antonio,Benito learned to speak,read,and write Spanish.At that time in Mexico,many people believed that Indians were not smart enough to read or learn.Antonio knew that was not true.Indians had been prevented from learning by a lack of schools.

26、sh missionaries(传教士)who came to Mexico had educated the native people. In fact,churches from Spain had built the first college on the North American continent(大陆)for the Indians. As more Spanish came to Mexico,however,the Indian children were crowded out of the schools.Benito was a good and bright s

32、educator.D. Born to be a servant.CFishy Weather ConditionsLaj amanu,Australia,is a dry little town,sitting right on the edge of the Tanami desert. Can you imagines How surprised were people when live fish rained down on them from a dark gray cloudy.It happens that there are similar cases in England
33、and Honduras.How do clouds make fishy.The simple answer is that they dont.There is a particular weather phenomenon(现象)called a waterspout.A waterspout is just like a tornado,only it forms above oceans,lakes,or rivers.Like a tornado,a waterspout moves in a circle at high speeds.When it moves above th
34、e water,it tends to carry the fish with it,as well as frogs or other small plants or animals.Scientists couldnt work it out at first.

35、d fish and snakes,and none were blind.

Th
38、ey recorded what was happening and made history by finally proving that the fish really did fall from the sky.This huge breakthrough wasnt just a spot of good luck. It changed thousands of years of myths and legends into true stories and provided scientific explanations for how fish came to live in
39、deep caves. It explained ancient cave paintings and shed new light on how species have spread over time.It turned out to be a lot more than just a little fishy weather.35.
