    People love animals and talk a lot about them.But sometimes people have wrong information about animals.First, people say elephants are really scared of mice.But elephants don't know if mice are close to them because elephants ares o big.Second, people say fish cannot talk to each other.But some fish can communicate by making noises with their teeth.Others use their swim bladders to talk to each other.Third, people say that dinosaurs were the biggest animals in the world.But blue whales are the biggest animals that have ever lived on Earth.Last, most birds can never fly backwards.A hummingbird is the only bird that can fly backwards.Sometimes people have wrong information about animals.

    A magnet pulls things like iron, steel, and nickel.A magnet has two poles which are a North (N)pole and a South (S)pole.The energy of a magnet goes from the North pole to the South pole.Only opposite poles of magnets pull together.If you put two South poles together, they push each other.Two North poles also push each other.Turn one magnet around, and the North (N)and the South (S) poles pullto each other.So North and South poles stick together.The needle on a compass is a small magnet.This needle tells where north and south are.So people can easily find the right direction.

    Do you know about the three magnetic metals?The answer is iron, cobalt, and nickel.The largest magnet was made in November 2006 in Geneva.It is 46m wide, 25m long and 25m high and weighs about 100 tons.This largest magnet was built by CERN(the European Organization forNuclear Research}.It is used for the nuclear research.It is also the most powerful magnet in the world.Today, magnets are everywhere in our life.There are some trains which are made with magnets.These trains have very powerful magnets underneath them.And these strong magnets lift the trains up from the track.The trains move very fast and very smoothly.

    Living things cannot live alone.Plants help animals breathe., . v /81Plants make oxygen.

    c: I ,'. I . e

    People breathe in oxygen and give off carbon dioxide.Then plants breathe in carbon dioxide and give off oxygen.So plants and animals exchange oxygen and carbon dioxide.These two gases are exchanged and passed on to other living things.The trees make much oxygen.But algae make more oxygen than all plants on land.If animals live around plants, they would get healthier.Animals help plants reproduce.This is how animals and plants live together.

    D American cultures D immigrants D different cultures in the U.S.

    In the United States, people from different countries live together.This is because people want freedom, work, education, and a better life.We call these people immigrants.When immigrants come to the U.S., they bring their own culture.So there are many different cultures in the U.S.Language, art, music, food, holidays, and customs make up cultures.For example, there is a place called Chinatown in San Francisco.Many Chinese people live there and share their cultures with Americans.Also a food called pizza is from Italian culture.And now pizza is one of the popular foods in the U.S.These are the examples of how different cultures share together.Americans share and respect the other cultures in this country.

    You may have at least two or three blue jeans in your closet.Blue jeans are one of the most popular clothes in the world.Blue jeans were invented in the time of the Gold Rush.In 1860, a small merchant, Levi Strauss arrived in San Francisco.He set up a small store to sell some clothes.But many gold rushers and miners complained about the clothes.They had to change their clothes often because they were worn out quickly.Levi Strauss thought that he had to do something for them.He decided to make some tough and strong clothes.At last, he made waist overalls.They were the old name for blue jeans and they became very popular.Levi Strauss opened a "wonderful pants of Levi's" factory.Today, his blue jeans shops are all over the world.
