Mother frogs have eggs in the water of a pond or a puddle. The eggs hatch(孵化). Little tadpoles come out of the eggs. A tadpole looks like small fat fish.

The corona-virus pandemic(新冠病毒流行) made a great difference in people's life in 2020. There is an unusual way to change the bad moods caused by it. It could be seen in letters to Father Christmas arriving at a post office in Southwest France. The post office answered mails sent to the traditional Father Christmas from around the world.
Jim, a little boy from Taiwan, put a face mask inside the letter he sent to Father Christmas and wrote "I□ U". Alina, 5, in her letter, asked Father Christmas to use the front door because the back door was only used by Grandma and Grandpa to reduce their risk of catching the new corona-virus. And 10-year-old Lola wrote that she was wishing “that my aunt never has cancer again and that there will be no virus any more”.
“My mother is a care-giver, so she has to take care of many patients or disabilities, and sometimes I am worried about her,” Lola explained. She ended with “take care of yourself, Father Christmas”. Thousands of letters arrived. They showed what children were thinking about this Christmas season after a year of illness and hard lives. Young Zoe asked only for a music player and a visit to a theme park, because “ this year has been very different from others because of COVID-I9”.
The earliest letters were opened on November 12. Then, it quickly became clear that the pandemic was worrying children. Thirty percent of the letters discussed the pandemic. “The kids have been very influenced by COVID, more than we think. They are very worried. What they want most of all is really to be able to have a normal life, the end of COVID, a vaccine(疫苗), not only the presents,” she said. “We are like masters of therapy(治疗),”she added.
Emma Barron works for the health of children and teenagers at a hospital in Paris. She said important days like birthdays or Christmas could give children a sense of safety. “They are an important part of the child’s happiness,” she said. “This year, they are especially important.”
