Do you think stones can move by themselves? There are some famous moving stones in Death Valley, the US．Many of the stones are small but a few of them are very big．Some of the big stones are as big as a man．The biggest stone weighs about 350 kg．
The stones only move at night．Nobody has ever seen them moving, but now scientists know the answer to the question．The answer is the wind．When the wind comes from the west, the stones move to the east．When the wind is from the north, they always move to the south．But how can the wind move a very heavy stone?
Death Valley is one of the hottest places in the world, but it can be very cold at night．Sometimes, there are even bad storms (风暴) at night．Rain falls, and the wind is strong and cold．The water on the ground turns into ice easily．Then the strong wind can move the stones along the flat (平坦的)ground．In the morning, the sun comes up and dries the ground．So people can find them move from one place to another in the daytime．

In another country, it often 5 ．And in the bad weather people sometimes got 6 and couldn't find their homes．Some even died．So they needed dogs to 7 them to find the lost people in the snow．But there were many forests(森林) in the country．The trains couldn't get there．The buses weren't 8 to get there, either．How could they get dogs?
