Ugly The Duckling

One upon time, a mother duck sat on her eggs. She felt tired of sitting on them. She just
wished the eggs would break out.
Several days later, she got her wish. The eggs cracked and some cute little ducklings
appeared. "Peep, peep" the little ducklings cried. "Quack, quack" their mother greeted in
return.

However the largest egg had not cracked. The mother duck sat on it for several days. Finally,
it cracked and a huge ugly duckling waddled out. The mother duck looked at him in surprise.
He was so big and very gray. He didn't look like the others at all. He was like a turkey.

When the mother duck brought the children to the pond for their first swimming lesson. The
huge grey duckling splashed and paddled about just as nicely as the other ducklings did.
"That is not a turkey chick. He is my very own son and quite handsome" the mother said
proudly.

However, the other animals didn't agree. They hissed and made fun of him day by day. Even
his own sisters and brothers were white swans swimming toward him. "Oh, dear. these
beautiful birds will laugh and peck me too" he very unkind. "You are very ugly" they
quacked.
The little poor duckling was very unhappy. "I wish I looked like them" he thought to himself.
One day, the ugly duckling run away and hid in the bushes. The sad duckling lived alone
through the cold and snow winter. Finally the spring flowers began to bloom. While he was
swimming in the pond, he saw three large said to himself. But the swans did not attack him.
Instead, they swam around him and stroked him with their bills. As the ugly duckling bent his
neck to speak to them, he saw his reflection in the water. He could not believe his eyes. "I am
not an ugly duckling but a beautiful swam" he exclaimed.

He was very happy. From that day on, he swam and played with his new friends and was
happier than he had never been.

2. REPORT

What Is Thunder and Lightning?

Lightning is a sudden, violent flash of electricity between a cloud and the ground, or from
cloud to cloud. A lightning fl ash, or bolt, can be several miles long. It is so hot, with an
average temperature of 34,000° Centigrade, that the air around it suddenly expands with a
loud blast. This is the thunder we hear. Lightning occurs in hot, wet storms. Moist air is
driven up to a great height. It forms a type of cloud called cumulonimbus. When the cloud
rises high enough, the moisture freezes and ice crystals and snowfl akes are formed. These
begin to fall, turning to rain on the way down. This rain meets more moist air rising, and it is
the friction between them which produces static electricity. When a cloud is fully charged
with electricity, it discharges it as a lightning flash.
