After each bath, she sang, “Blue water. Still water. I went in. I am blue.” Bluebird repeated this every morning. On the third day, she came out of the lake with beautiful blue feathers.‎ Now Coyote was a trickster(骗子)—and hungry too. He stayed behind Bluebird’s tree for a long time every day and watched her go to the lake. He pretended(伪装) to be interested in everything she did. He wanted Bluebird for lunch, but he was afraid of the blue water. On the third morning, Coyote saw Bluebird come out of the lake with beautiful blue feathers. Impressed, he sat next to Bluebird’s tree and waited for her. When she returned, he asked, “How did you get blue feathers? I want to be blue like the mountains too.” Bluebird didn’t believe Coyote, but she taught him how to bathe three times each morning and how to sing her song. Coyote did what she said, and after three days of bathing in the lake, his white fur turned deep blue.‎ Convinced(确信的) that blue fur was even more beautiful than blue feathers, Coyote forgot all about being hungry. He ran as fast as he could to the top of the hill. Standing on his back legs, he raised his front legs off the ground and howled. But Coyote slipped(滑倒) and rolled down the hill. He couldn’t stop himself, and the dust and dirt covered his new blue fur. He rolled and rolled until he hit into Bluebird’s tree heavily.

They happen during “Hurricane Season,” which is from June 1st until November 30th in the Atlantic Ocean and from May 15th until November 30th in the Pacific Ocean.‎ Categories(类别)of Hurricanes There are five categories of hurricanes, which are based on wind speeds. The categories help people know how much damage(危害) a hurricane may cause because the greater the wind speed, the more dangerous the storm. For example, a Category 5 hurricane has winds over 155 miles per hour, which are strong enough to destroy the buildings along the shorelines completely.‎ Hurricane Dangers When a hurricane happens together with heavy rainfall, there can be a devastating flood. The centre of a hurricane is called the eye. While most of a hurricane has dangerously strong winds, the eye is actually(事实上) a calm area in the storm. When the eye of a hurricane passes over land, people might think that it’s over, but before long the wind and rain increase again as the second part of the hurricane moves through.‎ Hurricane Safety Tips There is no way to stop a hurricane or make it change direction, so if you ever find yourself in the path of a hurricane, be sure to remember the following safety tips.‎ ‎·Be sure you have a radio, batteries, fresh dinking water, and enough food.‎ ‎·Tell neighbours, friends, and family members your emergency plans. Tell them where you’ll go if you need to leave your home.‎ ‎·If you live near the ocean, leave your home and travel to a safe place. You could stay with a friend or a family member, in a hotel/motel, or in an emergency shelter area.‎ ‎·Stay inside during the storm. You could be seriously injured(受伤) if you go outside.‎ ‎ ‎ Hurricanes ‎ Characteristics Hurricane Season usually 1 about 6 months in the Atlantic Ocean and 6.5 months in the Pacific Ocean.‎ Devastating waves, wind, and rain are usually the 2 of hurricanes.‎ Categories Hurricanes have been 3 into five categories by scientists, based on wind speeds.‎ A Category 5 hurricane can destroy all the 4 along the shorelines.‎ ‎ 5 ‎ When a hurricane comes together with heavy rainfall, a terrible 6 may happen.‎ The eye is the 7 of a hurricane. Soon after it passes, the wind and rain increase again.‎ Safety Tips It’s 8 to stop a hurricane or change its direction.‎ Don’t 9 the safety tips if you find yourself in the path of a hurricane.‎ Stay inside during the storm, 10 you could be seriously injured.‎ ‎1. lasts 2. results 3. divided 4. buildings 5.
