The Ugly Tree



 
Long, long ago, in a dense forest there were thousands of tall and beautiful trees. They were happy, but proud of themselves. Among them there also an ugly tree whose branches were badly twisted. Its roots had uneven curves. All the trees made fun of that ugly tree.

“How are you, hunchback?” the other trees always shouted and their laughter made the ugly tree feel sad. But, he never raised a voice against them. The ugly tree thought, “I wish I were as beautiful as the other trees. Why did God do this to me? Neither can I provide shade to the travelers not can the birds make their nests on me. Nobody needs me.”

One day, a woodcutter came to the forest. He took a look at the trees and said, “These trees are lovely. I must cut them.” As soon as he picked up his axe the trees became frightened.

‘Chop, Chop, Chop’ went the woodcutter’s axe and one by one the trees started to fall. “None of us is going to be spared,” screamed one of the beautiful trees. Soon that tree too was brought to ground by the woodcutter’s axe.

By now, the woodcutter had come near to the ugly tree. He had just raised his axe when suddenly he noticed how crooked the ugly tree was. “Hmm! This crooked tree seems to be useless for me. I cannot make long straight logs of this ugly tree,” he thought. And he moved towards another beautiful tree. The ugly tree heaved a huge sigh of relief. He realized that by making him ugly, God had actually given him a boon.

From that day the ugly tree never complained. He was happy with his crooked branches. He never forgot how he was spared from t he woodcutter’s axe, only because he was crooked and ugly.

Biggest Animal


Whales are the biggest mammal on earth.Whales can grow 95 feet long and weight 150 tons. Baby whales can grow 23 meters long and weight 3 tons. Altough  whales live in the ocean and seems like a fish, but they are mammals.They breathe through their lungs and hold their breathe when they go under water. If they can not come to the surface to breathe fresh air, they will be drown. 

In the winter, they go to warm water to breed. In  the summer, they go to cold water to feed. There are two kind of whales. Whales with teeth called toothed whales and whales without teeth called baleen whales. The toothed whales eat fish and squid, but the baleen whales eat small fish and plankton. They swallow their food without chewing it.

comparison chart 

Whales are very attractive animal, they can perform a variety of movement. There are :
1. Breaching
When a whale leaps out of the water, sometimes twirling around, it is called breaching. This action may be  purely for play, or may be used to loosen skin parasites and other irritations the whale might have. Breaching is also believed to be a means of communication with other whales and is usually done in sets of between four and six.

2. Spyhopping
An activity in which the whale pokes its head out of the water, possibly to take a look around.

3. Lobtailing
This is an activity in which the animal sticks its tail out of the water, swings it around and then slaps it onto the water's surface. This produces a loud sound which is believed to be a means of communication between whales.

4.  Logging
This is when the whale is merely lying in the water, with its tail hanging down. Part of the head and back are exposed.

Whales have something unique, like dolphins communicate by means of sonar. They make clicking, grunting and whistling sounds which also act as a means of echolocation. These can be heard for miles under water, and can also be heard from above water. Whales are also thought to communicate by slamming their tails against the surface of the ocean which produces a loud splashing sound, an action called lobtailing. When whales breach, they are also thought to be communicating with other whales.
