When the gods created the world, the baobab was among the first trees to appear on the land. Next came the graceful palm tree. When the baobab saw the palm tree, (A) it said to the gods, “Can I grow taller?” Then the beautiful flame tree appeared with its red flowers and the baobab complained, “Why can’t I have beautiful blossoms like the flame tree?” When the baobab saw the magnificent fig tree and its fruit, it became jealous.

Why do you think the baobab has such an enormous trunk and root-like branches? ①The name comes from the Arabic word buhibab, meaning “fruit with many seeds.” ②It is because of the weather where it grows. ③After the rainy season, about nine months of dry weather follow. ④Such dry weather is hard for plants to survive in. ⑤Yet scientists have discovered that baobabs can grow to enormous sizes, reaching heights of 5 to 30 meters, and have trunk diameters of 7 to 11 meters.

How can this big tree survive in the dry season? The baobab has deep roots to find water in the ground, and it stores the water in its trunk for the long dry season. This large tree can actually store as much as 120,000 liters of water, and the small branches help reduce water loss. The baobab tree is a valuable water source for Africans in the dry season. The baobab’s bark, leaves, fruit, and trunk are all useful, too. The bark of the baobab is used for cloth and rope, the leaves for seasoning and medicines, while the fruit, called ‘monkey bread,’ is eaten. Sometimes people live inside the huge trunks. What an amazing life source for the African people!

Scientists have found that hummingbirds have unique, fast wing strokes, which allow them to fly forward, backward, sideways, and even to stop in midair. Although they are small, they can fly up to 54 kilometers per hour. They are also talented at staying in one place like a bee. How is this possible? They can flap their wings in a figure-8 pattern, which enables them to hover. As they hover, they use their long tongues to take sweet liquid from flowers. Their one weakness is their feet. Because they fly so much, they have poorly developed feet, which cannot be used to walk.
