Whether you're traveling over your children's spring break, summer vacation
or winter holidays, you'll find Miami is such a hot spot for families year
round. There are various activities for vacationing kids in Miami, and they can
spend one day learning about some of Miami's rich cultural heritage(遗产), as
well as a bit of science and history.

souvenir stands here for all members of the family. Kids will particularly
enjoy Art By God, a shop devoted to natural stone. especially fossils(化石).

Boulevard). It is a great place to expose your kids to the Cuban heritage that

Then you will visit Miami's Little Havana, and since it's probably getting
close to lunch time, drive yourself to Versailles Restaurant (3555 Southwest
8th Street) in the heart of Little Havana. Then take some time to simply walk
the streets and take in the music, the art and the personality of the people
and their neighborhood before returning to your car.
On your way back to the hotel, visit the Miami Science Museum, where there
are complete science and natural history museums. Or you may visit the Miami
Seaquarium (水族馆). Though there are many such theme parks more modern and in
better shape than this 1955 pioneer, it's still worth a visit for their dolphin,
sea lion and killer whale shows. Kids can also get face to face with the
endangered manatee(海牛)or watch specialists feeding 200-pound sharks.

They call it the of 150An anthropologist(人类学家)called Robin
Dunbar made a study of 21 different primitive societies. He found that they all
lived in villages of around 150 people. Then he asked people living in modern
cities to make a list of all the people they knew well enough to talk to. Each
of them made a list of around 150 people. Many of us have left village life
behind. But the idea of the village has not left us.
Other studies of businesses and army units have shown that when people are
forced into groups of over 150 they become inefficient(效率低). There are just
too many people around to communicate with effectively. It also seems that when
our personal become too small, people feel lonely. We need other
people to help us.

Scientists can't predict earthquakes. But toads(蟾蜍)might be able to.
In the spring of 2010, Rachel Grant, a researcher in life sciences, was
studying a population of toads in a large dry lake in central Italy. Common
toads reproduce once a year, sometimes traveling great distances to gather at
their breeding(繁殖)grounds, and Grant was looking at whether her subjects were
using the cycles of the moon to coordinate their romantic encounters.
In the previous three years, she had watched the toads increase in number
when the moon grew from new to full. But that year was different. The moon
became almost full, and suddenly the toads were gone.
90 to 100 toads down to six, and then to one, and then zero,
was at a loss. Did somebody come and disturb them? Did somebody run
through with a tractor? But that didn't seem right. Toads get run over by cars
all the time, and that doesn't make them run away,
Five days after the toads disappeared, she had a possible answer: an
earthquake struck in the middle of the night. The 6.3-magnitude quake was the
deadliest to hit Italy in nearly 30 years, killing roughly 300 people and
leaving tens of thousands homeless.
Grant stayed to count her toads in spite of the aftershocks. When a full
moon rose three days after the quake, a few toads risked a return. But then
their numbers dropped again, remaining low until two days after the last
aftershock-a full 10 days after the first quake.

The question now, says Grant, is whether seismologists (地震学家) can do
anything with her research to try to predict the next big one.
