Scientists believed the heavy thunderstorm that afternoon may have caused a waterspout(), Waterspouts can be formed when strong winds move quickly in a circle over water.They are so powerful that anything less than onc meter in length can be taken into themn and forced into the clouds.The clouds carry whatever has been taken into them for long distances sometimes over 150 kilometers.It's very cold up there and everything soon freezes. -'For hundreds of years there have'been reports of small animals being taken into the sky through waterspouts.In 2009.dead tadpoles rained down on the city of Nanao in Japan.In 2012.fifty kilos of prawns fell from the sky over Sri Lanka.In 2017,fish fell on the coastal city of Tampico in Mexico.

D Imagine a cat that does not need someone to clean up after it keeps an older person company and helps them remember to take their medicine.That is the shared dream of the toy maker Hasbro and scientists at Brown University in Providence,Rhode Island.The researchers received a $3-million-dollar award from the National Science Foundation for a special project.They want to find ways to add artificial intelligence or Al, to Hasbro's"Joy for All"robotic cat. The cat has already been for sale for two years.Though priced at over 1,000 dollars,it sold quite well. It was meant to act as a "companion"()for older people.Now the project is aimed at developing additional abilities for the cat.Researchers are working to decide which activities older adults may need the most.They hope to make the cat perform a small number of activities very well.Such activittes include finding lost objects and reminding the older people to take medicine or visit their doctor.They also want to keep the cost down to just a few hundred dollars. It is an idea that is attractive to Jeanne Elliott.Her 93-year-old mother Mary Derr lives with her in South Kingstown.Derr has dementia().The Joy for All cat that Elliot bought this year has become a true companion for Derr.The cat stays with Derr and keeps her relaxed while Elliett is at work.Elliot said a robotic cat that helps her mother to remember to take her medicine and be careful when she walks would be greater. The researchers are dying to leamn how the improved cats will complete helpful activities and how they will communicate.They say that they do not want a talking cat,however.Instead they are trying to design a cat that can move its head in a special way to successfully communicate its message.In the end,they hope to create an exchange between the human and the cat in which the human feels the cat needs them.By doing so,the researchers hope they can even help prevent feelings of loneliness and sadness among elderly people. 32.What's the purpose of the project?- A.To reduce the pain of the elderly. B.To invent a robotic cat for the elderly C.To increase the sales of a medicine. D.To help make the robotic cat smarter. .33.What can we know about the cat? A..It will be on sale in two years.
