You have probably heard the expression,“It’s raining cats and dogs outside.”That means 16  it’s raining very hard I not that  17  cats and dogs are falling from the  18  .However,one day in June,1882,it really did rain  19  over Dubuque,Iowa.The frogs  20  falling along with hailstones(冰雹)during a  21  storm.

    Hail is formed when drops of rainwater are  22  by heavy winds and are carried high up into the air.There the raindrops become frozen.Many drops may freeze  23  to form balls of ice;these ice balls,or hailstones,then  24  to earth.

    During the storm in Dubuque,the strong winds lifted small frogs from nearby ponds(池塘) 25  the air along with raindrops.When some of these frogs became covered with ice,both hailstones and“frog-stones”fell onto the ground.

Please give kids a break. The request(要求) came after an online survey about  31  activities between classes. Some schools only   32   students to play in the corridors (走廊) during the ten-minute breaks, while   33  even make students do homework in the classroom. About this problem, different people have   34   ideas.

70% of parents in the survey said their children were not allowed to play   35   during breaks. Teachers should know children are 36   to be active, so education shouldn’t run  37    the laws(规律) of nature. “ It   38  that the playground is useless,” said one of the parents.      Some parents agreed to   39   the school did. “ Games during breaks will make children too excited to listen to the teacher   40   in class.” Schools had their own reasons   41     this. Teachers were facing lots of responsibility(责任) over school  42  . Some schools stopped activities   43   children were injured (受伤)during breaks.   44   didn’t want to do so,   but there was no better   45   to solve the problem.
