 Jellyfish are not really fish. They are invertebrate animals. This means that
unlike fish or people, they have no backbones. In fact, they have no bones at all.
Jellyfish have stomachs and mouths, but no heads. They have nervous
systems for sensing the world around them, but no brains. They are made almost
entirely of water, which is why you can look through them.
Some jellyfish can glow in darkness by making their own light. The light
is made by a chemical reaction inside the jellyfish. Scientists believe jellyfish
glow for several reasons. For example, they may glow to scare away predators or
to attract animals they like to eat.
Most jellyfish live in salt water, apart from a few types that live in fresh
water. Jellyfish are found in oceans and seas all over the world. They live in

Mobile Phone

A mobile phone (also known as a wireless phone, or cellular

telephone) is a very small portable radio telephone.

The mobile phone can be used to communicate over long distances

without wires. It works by communicating with a nearby base station (also
called a "cell site") which connects it to the main phone network. As the
mobile phone moves around, if the mobile phone gets too far away from
the cell it is connected to, that cell sends a message to another cell to tell
the new cell to take over the call. This is called a "hand off," and the call
continues with the new cell the phone is connected to. The hand-off is
done so well and carefully that the user will usually never even know that
the call was transferred to another cell.

As mobile phones became more popular, they began to cost less

money, and more people could afford them. Monthly plans became
available for rates as low as US$30 or US$40 a month. Cell phones have
become so cheap to own that they have mostly replaced pay phones and
phone booths except for urban areas with many people.

 The Bear and The Two Friends
Once two friends were walking through the forest. They knew that
anything dangerous can happen to them at any time in the forest. So they
promised each other that they would remain united in any case of danger.
Suddenly, they saw a large bear approaching them. One of the friends at
once climbed a nearby tree. But the other one did not know how to climb. So
being led by his common sense, he lay down on the ground breathless, pretending
to be a dead man.
The bear came near the man lying on the ground. It smelt in his ears, and
slowly left the place. Because the bears do not touch the dead creatures. Now the
friend on the tree came down and asked his friend on the ground, “Friend, what
did the bear tell you into your ears?” The other friend replied, “The bear advised
me not to believe a false friend.”
