10. Venice
Venice is a city in northern Italy. It is the capital of region Veneto. Together with
Padua, the city is included in the Padua-Venice Metropolitan Area. Venice has been known as
the “Queen of the Adriatic”, “City of Water”, “City of Bridges”, and “The City of Light”. The
city stretches across 117 small islands in the marshy Venetian Lagoon along the Adriatic Sea
in northeast Italy.
Venice is world-famous for its canals. It is built on an archipelago of 117 islands formed
by about 150 canals in a shallow lagoon. The islands on which the city is built are connected
by about 400 bridges. In the old center, the canals serve the function of roads, and every
form of transport is on water or on foot.
You can ride gondola there. It is the classical Venetian boat which nowadays is mostly used
for tourists, or for weddings, funerals, or other ceremonies. Now, most Venetians travel by
motorized waterbuses (“vaporetti”) which ply regular routes along the major canals and
between the city’s islands. The city also has many private boats. The only gondolas still in
common use by Venetians are the traghetti, foot passenger ferries crossing the Grand Canal
at certain points without bridges.
You can see the amusing city’s landmarks such as Piazza San Marco, Palazzo Contarini
del Bovolo, Saint Mark’s Cathedral or villas of the Veneto. The villas of the Veneto, rural
residences for nobles during the Republic, are one of the most interesting aspects of
Venetian countryside. They are surrounded by elegant gardens, suitable for fashionable
parties of high society. The city is also well known for its beautiful and romantic view,
especially at night.

11. Panda Cubs
Panda cubs are adored for their puppy-like resemblance and
unique color scheme. Who can resist their fluffy white fur with black
circle eyes, ears, and stripes. On all fours they resemble a cuddly
puppy.
Many facts contribute to the plight of the endangered panda.
Panda cubs are born in small litters, often only one. Where they live
and the robustness of their habitat determines their survival. Since the
mother’s reproduction rate is limited, specie propagation is fragile. The
more information and facts we know about baby pandas the better we
can insure their survival.
Panda bear cubs are born to play. But the survival skills they learn
from their mother are critical. With proper skills and a favorable
environment, cubs can mature to adulthood and continue the cycle of
reproduction to save the species. The owl is an enemy of panda babies.

12. Tornadoes
A tornado is a violent rotating column of air extending
from a thunderstorm to the ground. The most violent
tornadoes are capable of tremendous destruction with wind
speeds of up to 300 mph. They can destroy large buildings,
uproot trees and hurl vehicles hundreds of yards. They can
also drive straw into trees. Damage paths can be in excess of
one mile wide to 50 miles long. In an average year, 1000
tornadoes are reported nationwide.
Tornadoes can happen at any time of the year and at
anytime of the day. In the southern states, peak tornado
season is from March through May. Peak times for tornadoes
in the northern states are during the summer. A few southern
states have a second peak time for tornado outbreaks in the
fall. Tornadoes are most likely to occur between 3 p.m. and 9
p.m.
