 Grasshoppers belong to insect. They are typically ground-dweling insects with powerful hind legs which enable them to escape from threats by leaping vigorously. At high population densities and under certain environmental conditions, some grasshopper species can change colour and behavior and form swarms. Under these circumstances they are known as locusts.

Grasshoppers are plant-eaters, sometimes becoming serious pests of cereals, vegetables and pasture, especially when they swarm in their millions as locuts and destroy crops over wide areas. They protect themselves from predators by camouflage; when detected, many species attempt to startle the predator with a brilliantly-coloured wing-flash while jumping and (if adult) lauching themselves intothe air, usually flying for only a short distance. Other species such as the rainbow grasshopper have warning coloration which deters predators. Grasshoppers are affected by parasites and various diseases, and many predatory creatures feed on both nymphs and adults. The eggs are the subject of attack by parasitoids and predators.

Hurricanes are giant, spiraling tropical storms that can pack wind speeds of over 160 miles (257 kilometers) an hour and unleash more than 2.4 trillion gallons (9 trillion liters) of rain a day.
Hurricanes begin as tropical disturbances in warm ocean waters with surface temperatures of least 80 degrees Fahrenheit (26.5 degrees Celcius). These low pressure systems are fed by energy from the warm seas. If a storm achieves wind of 38 miles (61 kilometers) an hour, it becomes known as a tropical depression. A tropical depression becomes a tropical storm, when its sustained wind speeds top 39 miles (63 kilometer) an hour. When a strom’s sustained wind speeds reach 74 miles (119 kilometers) an hour, it becomes a hurricane and earns a category rating of 1 to 5 on the Saffir-Simpson.

What is the main of the second paragraph?

                Once upon a time, there lived a Clouds family. Papa Cloud, Mama Cloud, and children Cloud lived quietly in the sky.

                Every morning, the children cloud went to the sky playground to play with the slide. But since there was only slide, they had to take turns on the slide. Lody, the youngest cloud, looked impatient. He could not wait for his turn to come. His brother, Tody, didn’t like his attitude. Suddenly, they were quarrelling. Their white bodies became grey. It meant they were very angry. When the clouds were angry, water usually came out of their bodies. It meant rain for the people on earth.

                “stop it, children! Stop fighting!” Papa cloud said.

                “You can play with the slide in turn. Now, shake hands. Both of you!” order Papa Cloud.

                Lody and Tody shake hands and slowly their colours changed. Their bodies became fair white again. The rain stopped and people on earth could go on their activities again.
