As Danny put his lunch tray onto the cafeteria table, milk spilled all over his sandwich. “This is the worst thing I’ve ever done!” he said, “It’s not that bad,” said his friend Elena, who was sitting across from him. “Just get another sandwich.”

“Sandwich? What sandwich? I am talking about the talent contest(竞赛). It’s only two weeks away and I don’t know what I’m doing! Everybody will laugh at me. There’s no way to avoid it!”

“Don’t be so negative, Danny,” said Elena as she rolled her eyes. “You’re going to be great. You have the skills to do just about anything.”

Danny moved his lunch tray to the side and rested his head on the table.

“Sit up Danny,” ordered Elena, “I have an idea. Let’s brainstorm a list of things you could do. We’ll divide the list into categories or groups. Let’s start with music. You play the piano, right?”

“I stopped taking lessons in the third grade,” said Danny.

“What about singing a song?” suggested Elena.

Danny shook his head no. “Let’s move on to another category.”

“What about performing magic tricks?” asked Elena, as she twisted thin strands of hair around her finger.

“I don’t know how to play magic tricks!” Danny almost shouted.

“Stop being so…” Elena paused, “That’s it, DRAMATIC!” Elena shouted excitedly. “You could do a dramatic reading. You definitely have the talent for it. Mrs. Pace always calls on you to read aloud in class. You could read a play aloud. Maybe you could even get extra credit from Mrs. Pace. She rewards students with points for doing extra reading work.”

Danny thought for a minute. Then he smiled. “Elena,” Danny said, “You are a great friend!”

Elena smiled back. “I just want to make sure you are a bright, shiny star when you step out on stage.”

People sometimes say, “It’s raining cats and dogs!” when there is a heavy rain. Nobody has ever really seen cats and dogs falling from the sky, but there have been many reports of other strange things “raining” down. In 1956, the people of a town in the USA saw a small black cloud in the sky. It started to rain from the cloud normally, but only in a small area. The cloud then turned white, and fish started to fall to the ground. Most of them were still alive.

During a storm in July 1901, in Minneapolis, people heard something falling from the sky that did not sound like rain. When they went outside, they found all types of frogs covering four streets.

There are other reports of strange “rains” failing from the sky including worms, insects and snakes.

Can these strange “rains” be explained by science? Scientists usually say that a tornado (龙卷风) has picked up the animals from a river or ocean, carried them for miles, and then dropped them somewhere else. But this does not completely explain all of them. On May 15, 1890, in Italy, there was a rain of birds’ blood. Scientists said that flying birds must have been torn (撕碎) to pieces by strong winds. But if so, why did only their blood fall from the sky , and not other parts of their bodies? And anyway, there were no strong winds that day!
