Which day the weather

Which day the weather

To those who have just read the title, it must be strange that the governor should put double quotation marks because he is not the governor, but my friend, the nickname - the governor, that is, the governor of saving. His economy is famous in the whole school, as long as the word "governor" knows that it is him.

He's really economical. Generally in school, we are all kinds of clothes, all kinds of shoes, a week can be different, and he has two sets of clothes, two pairs of shoes, round to wear. Which day the weather is not good, not dry, use a hair dryer to blow under, half dry and half wet will wear out. Although his dress is relatively monotonous, but washed particularly clean, people feel particularly comfortable, is occasionally some visual fatigue.

In addition to dressing sparingly, he eats exceptionally sparingly. Breakfast is to eat bread and drink milk, he is good, in order to save, on a steamed bun, plus a small bowl of porridge, breakfast is to eat well. Dinner is always a few fifty cents of the dishes alternate, a meal. Sometimes, looking distressed, ask him to eat a good meal, he insisted on helping you play hot water for a few days in return. However, on his birthday, he would take out his savings and treat everyone to a good meal, which was his most generous time, which could be described as a rare occasion.

Even if he saved money on food and clothing, he also saved money on supplies. We usually throw away the toothpaste when it can't be squeezed out, and he has to cut off the bottom of the toothpaste and brush it for a few days to make sure there is nothing left before throwing it away. Sometimes, when we finished the notebook, we threw it in the trash, and he had to bring it back, either to practice Chinese calligraphy or to put it up on the wall. Any thing, in his hands, must be able to fully realize self-value.

You say his nickname "governor" is not well deserved, in fact, we all know that his savings because of family difficulties, we call him "governor" on the surface, in the heart still admire him, with him slowly also learned to save, he is really our good "governor", leading us like a good direction.

I play on the lawn.

My friends and I were playing on the lawn, and there was a group of ants moving, which was caused by the scene. The question came to mind: Why do you want to move? Curiosity led me to dig holes in the dirt on the slopes. It took a while to dig a new home. After the new home, the ants go in. There was a drop of rain on my head. Gee, it's raining! Hurriedly ran back home. And the question arose in my mind: What about the rain for the ants to move?

Consulting the encyclopedia, I understand that the air pressure is low before the rain, the water in the air, the weather is stuffy, and after the ants arrive, they feel that the home is low and easy to be flooded. Moved the house to higher ground, and it was flooded. Oh, I see, ants can weather, is the weather forecast experts! Why do ants get lost?

I looked in the books. According to the book, when the ants reach their destination from the nest, they leave a scent along the way and return to the nest. Touch it with your tentacles to notify the ants. Scientists have done experiments. The scientist starts with the ant and cleans the place along the way to its destination. When the ant returned, it stopped between the places where the scent had been wiped. Walking in circles on the spot. So ants can tell by smell.

I confirmed the conclusion. I did an experiment. I took about ten centimeters of small branches and put bait on one end of the branches - small candies. I'll set it up near the colony. Soon, there are ants to explore the way. After I led him to the stick, he reached the place where the candy was, smelling and sniffing. I took the opportunity to cut off the broken part of the stick by a centimeter. When the ant returns, it turns left and right at the cut off spot to find its way home.

After a while, I repeated the above experiment, and the ants were still on their way home.

These two experiments, I finally ant for the secret of the lost. Ants are known by smell. I understand the truth: to go to the big, big unknown things waiting to go, as long as careful observation, more new.
