This week, I learn about animals adaptation. Adaptation is a behavior or shape of the organism that help increase its survival rate. For example, stick bug camouflage itself into a stick so it can hid from birds and other predators. Also the rabbit have strong legs enable it to run fast so it won’t be catch by predators. I also learn that dogs or people change themselves in order to live in harsh condition. Buck in the story of “The Call of the Wild” change from a playful dog to a fierce dog in order to compete with others. Buck steals food and fight with others for power. Adaptation is very important and it help every organism in the world to survive in its environment.

Do you know how to use a fire extinguisher. I learn how to use a fire extinguisher for a research project. Fire extinguisher is very easy to use except it is very heavy. First, you need to find a fire extinguisher when there’s a fire. Then you pull out the safety pin out of the handle and lift the fire extinguisher up with your right hand (If you’re right handed). Next pull out the nozzle from the side of the fire extinguisher and hold it with your left hand. Finally aim the nozzle at the fire and press down the handle. It is really hard to press the handle so try to tell adult to do it. It is very useful to put out fire. There’s many type of fire extinguisher and all of them have different chemical in them.

This Chinese New Year, I went to Kaohsiung and Tainan. It was fun and interesting. I went to many night markets to plays games and eat food. The ground was awfully dirty and was full of plastic bags, food, chopsticks, tissues and etc. In Kaohsiung, i went to the “Dream Mall”. It is humongous and it will take an entire day to go through all the floors. There’s a big Ferris wheel on the roof. I waited in the line for hours until i can get up to the cart. From the top of the Ferries wheel, i can see all the landscape and buildings of Kaohsiung. The weather was windy so our cart started to shake. My cousin is extremely scare of height so he didn’t speak at all on the Ferris wheel.
During the break, i ate lots of sea food and candy. I did none of my homework until the last day. After another month we are going to have spring break. I can’t wait to have break again.
