                  Certainly no creature in the sea is odder tha the common
             sea cucumber.All living creature,especially human beings
             ,have their peculiarities,but everything about the little sea 
             cucumber seems unusual.What else can be said about a 
line       bizarre animal that,among other eccentricities,eats mud,
             feeds almost continuously day and night but can live 
(5)        without eathing for long periods, and can be poisonous but
             is considered supremely edible by gourmets?
                   For some fifty million years,despite all its eccentricities
             the sea cucumber has subsisted on its diet of mud.It is 
             adaptable enough to live attached to rocks by its tube feet
             under rocks in shallow water,or on the surface of mud flats.
(10)      Common in cool water on both Atlantic and pacific shores
             it has the ability to suck up mud or sand and digest 
             whatever nutrients are present.
                    Sea cucumbers come in a variety of colors,ranging 
             from black to reddish-brown to sand-color and nearly white
             One form even has vivit purple tentacles.Usually the 
             creatures are cucumber-shaped-hence their name-and 
(15)      because they are typically rock inhabitants,this shape,
             combined with flexibility,enables them to squeeze into 
             crevices where they are safe from predators and ocean 
             currents.
                     Although they have voracious appetites,eating day 
             and night,sea cucumbers have the capacity to become 
             quiescent and live at a low metabolic rate-feeding sparingly
             or not at all for long periods,so that the marine organisms
(20)      that provide their food have a chance to multiply.If it were 
             not for this faculty,they would devour all the food 
             available in a short time and would probably starve 
             thenselves out of existence.
                    But the most spectacular thing about the sea cucumber 
             is the way it defends itself.Its major enemies are fish and 
             crabs,when attacked,it squirts all its internal organs into the
             water.It also casts off attached structures such as tentacles.
             The sea cucumber will eviscerate and regenerate itself if
             it is attacked or even touched;it will do the same if 
             surrounding water temperature is too high or if the water
             becomes too polluted.

             Just two months after the flight of Apollo 10,the Apollo 11 astronouts made their historic landing on the surface of the moon.This momentous trip for humanity also provided scientists with an abundance of material for study;from rock and soil samples brought back from the Moon,scientists have been able to determine much about the composition of the Moon as well as to draw inferences about the development of the Moon from its composition.               The Moon soil that came back on Apollo 11 contains small bits of rock and glass which were probably ground from larger rocks when meteors impacted with the surface of the Moon.The bits of glass are spherical in shape and constitute approximately half of the Moon soil.Scientists found no trace of animal or plant life in this soil.               In addition to the Moon soil,astronauts gathered two basic types of rocks from the surface of the Moon:basalt and breccia.Basalt is a cooled and hardened volcanic lava common to the E

             During the heyday of the railroads,when Ameria's rail system provided the bulk of the country's passenger and freight transportation,various types of railroad cars were in servive to accomplish the varied tasks handled by the railroads.One type of car that was not available for public use prior to the civil War,however,was a sleeping car,ideas for sleeping cars abounded at the time, but these ideas were unworkable.It unfortunately took the death of a president to make the sleeping car a viable reality.               Cabinet-maker George M.Pullman had recognized the demand for sleeping cars and had worked on developing experimental models of sleeping cars in the decade leading up to the Civil War.However,in spite of the fact that he had made successful test runs on the chicago and Alton Railroads with his models,he was unable to sell his idea because his models were too wide and too high for existing train stations and bridges.In 1863,after spending time working as

         Today ,the most universally known style of both men and women is jeans;these trousers are worn throuhout the world on a variety of occasions and in diverse situations.Also called levis or denims,jeans have an interesting history,one that is intermixed with the derivation of the words jeans,denims,and levis.               The word jeans is derived from the name of the place where a similar style of plants developed.In the sixteenth century,sailors from Genoa,Italy,wore a rather unique type of cotton trousers.In the French language,the word for the city of Genoa and for the people from that city is Genes;this name became attached to the specific style of pants worn by the sailors from this city and developed into the word jeans that today describes the descendents of the Genovese sailors' cotton pants.               Similar to the word jeans,the word denim is also derived from a place name.In the seventeenth century,French tailors began making trousers out of a specialized t
