There have been snowflakes of almost every shape. Think how it would seem to have these coming down all around you. Wouldn’t they look pretty?

Black snow came down in France one year. Another year gray snow fell in Japan. It was found that such snow was mixed with ashes. This made it seem dark. Red snow has come down in other countries. When this happened, it was mixed with red dust. That’s why it looked different.

When air is cold and dry, the falling snowflakes are small and hard.If the air is wet and warmer, the snowflakes are big and soft.

47. During one summer not long ago, Americans in the Southwest were without rain for many days. The sun burned up crops. Animals went hungry on the dry land. At last, clouds appeared in the sky and sent down rain.

How do such clouds form? The sun, the earth, and the air all play a part. The changes that take place before clouds can form do not always happen quickly. First, the earth is heated by the sun. This causes tiny drops of water in oceans and rivers to rise and mix with air. As the wet air rises higher, it cools off, making clouds.

What causes these clouds to become rain? The tiny drops of water inside the clouds become larger as they gather more wetness from the air around them. Finally, the drops become so large that they can no longer be held up by the air. They fall to the ground as rain.

The raindrops that fall are not always the same size. Some may be very large. But the smallest come down in a fine mist.

Rain is needed for all life. When it falls after a long dry spell, trees, grass, and bushes may begin to look fresh and green again. These plants need water to stay healthy. The rain also causes streams to fill with water. This makes it possible for fish and other animals to live. Rain brings new life and hope to millions of people and other living things.

52.Long ago, children played like children do today. They got dirty from running around.Older people got dirty from working all day. But then there was no soap. What did people do to get clean?

At first people just went into a lake. They washed in the water. But then they learned to use other things with the water. They put plants in a fire until they turned black. In this way, they made ashes. People used the ashes like soap. They also used oil like soap. But these were not very good.

The first soaps were hard to make. First water was put in a pot. Then fat was added. Oil and ash were mixed in the pot, too. Then it was put on a fire. Everything got very hot. Salt was added. After a while the fat came to the top. When the cooked fat was taken out, it got hard. This was the first soap.

The soap we use today is very different. Things are put in to make it smell good. Something is added to give it a nice color. Some soaps are white. Others are yellow, green, or blue. Soap is also cut in different ways. It can be round or square.

54.Any person who can read words and understand what they mean is fortunate. More than half the people in the world cannot read or write. They can learn about things only by watching and listening. However, people who can read are able to learn about anything they wish.

People can read a language better if they have listened to it or learned to speak it. Reading, listening, and speaking are ways people come to understand the words of a language. Being able to write also makes reading easier.

A mother or father is often a child’s first reading teacher. By speaking to a baby, the parent helps the baby understand what language is and what it is for. Children feel love and joy in the sounds of words. They try to talk back. As babies listen and speak, they store up facts and ideas.

Certain things children do in the early years help them learn. Young children enjoy looking at picture books. Later, the parent reads books that the child can look at as well as listen to. At age five many children are beginning to read and write. Some can recognize their own names.

Children continue to learn to read in school with their teacher’s help. Sometimes children read out loud.At other times they read silently. They learn to understand and remember. Reading teaches them new facts and helps them get along in everyday life.

55.Sometimes when you walk outside, you see a little hole with sand around it. Guess what! You have found a city under the ground. Ants live in this city. There, many ants live together with their queen. The queen is the biggest ant of all. Most of the time, there is only one queen in an ant city.

When a queen starts her own city, she digs a hole. She takes bits of sand to the top. Then she piles up the sand.It makes a little hill. She is making a good place for her eggs. It is a nest.

When baby ants come out of the eggs, they are called grubs. They look like worms. The queen feeds them food and water. But when a grub is a week or two old, it stops eating. It no longer needs food. It makes a bag around itself and goes to sleep. Then it grows into a big ant.
