Unfortunately, the station is not here. After thinking long and hard about it, weve concluded that the right decision is to move to Chicago.”Marc looked shocked, while his sister Rachel breathlessly started asking when theyd be moving. “Its surprising, but exciting!” she said. Marc simply said, “We cant goI cant leave all my friends. Id rather stay here and live with Tommy Lyons!”The Tisichs hoped that by the time they moved in August, Marc would grow more accustomed to the idea of leaving. However, he showed no signs of accepting the news, refusing to pack his belongings.When the morning of the move arrived, Marc was nowhere to be found. His parents called Tommy Lyons house, but Mrs. Lyons said she hadnt seen Marc. Mrs. Tisich became increasingly concerned, while her husband felt angry with their son for behaving so irresponsibly.What they didnt know was that Marc had started walking over to Tommys house, with a faint idea of hiding in Lyons attic(阁楼) for a few days. But something happened on the way as Marc walked past all the familiar landscape of the neighborhood: the fence that he and his mother painted, the tree that he and his sister used to climb, the park where he and his father often took evening walks together. How much would these mean without his family, who make them special in the first place? Marc didnt take the time to answer that question but instead hurried back to his house, wondering if there were any moving cartons(纸板箱)the right size to hold his record collection.56.

Ten inches of rain may be enough for many plants to survive if the rain is spread throughout the year, If it falls, within one or two months and the rest of the year is dry, those plants may die and a desert may form. Sand begins as tiny pieces of rock that get smaller and smaller as wind and weather wear them down. Sand dunes are formed as winds move the sand across the desert. Bit by bit, the dunes grow over the years, always moving with the winds and changing the shape. Most of them are only a few feet tall, but they can grow to be several hundred feet high. There is, however, much more to a desert than sand. In the deserts of the southwestern United States, cliffs and deep valleys were formed from thick mud that once lay beneath a sea more than millions of years ago.
