That woman carried a new blanket (毛毯) over her arm. Wordlessly, she gave it to me.

“Is it finished?” I asked.

She shook her head. “No. It is ready,” she replied. I handed her the money and took the blanket.

“It is beautiful, so skillfully woven (编织),” I said to my mother. “But what did she mean when

she said it was not finished? How can it be ready if it is not finished?”

“I will tell you later,” my mother said, “but first I will take you to the Navajo village.”

We went down to the village. A group of young men were making sand pictures. We walked through the

whole village, watching the different things the people were doing.

It was not until that evening that my mother finally explained the Navajo woman's words.

“Did you notice anything about the things the people were making?” my mother asked.

“What should I have noticed?” I looked at her and asked.

“Each thing the Navajo make has one small part that is not complete. The designs (设计) in their

sand pictures are often not perfectly done, for example —the line of a circle may not quite close.

If you look carefully at your blanket, you will probably find a stitch (一针) missing.”

I took the blanket off, but it looked as perfect as any design could be. Then suddenly, I noticed

that sure enough a stitch was missing!

“But why do the Navajo intentionally leave some tiny part unfinished?” I asked. 精 品 试 卷

not be perfect until then. Then too, with a circle, they believe that they must leave a pathway for the

bad spirits to run away and the good spirits to come in. So, often, they do not make the line close.”

It's true that many dads in the wild aren't interested in parenting, but there are some

that work pretty hard to give their little ones a good start. Maybe one of these dads will make you remember

your own dad!

The male giant water bug (雄性负子蝽) doesn't seem to mind a heavy load (负荷物) on his

back for his kids. The female puts about 100 to 150 eggs on the back of the male, and then she leaves.

Once the female is gone, the male has to look after the eggs. It usually takes one to two weeks for the

eggs to hatch (孵化). The father giant water bug jumps around to make sure the growing eggs get enough

air and water. All this time he can't fly because of the weight of the eggs growing rapidly on his back.

Now let's turn to the male stickleback fish. When the mother leaves after laying her eggs,

the father tends his young. If the young fish go too far away, their father helps with their safe return

by carrying them back in his mouth. The male stickleback looks after all his young — as many as 100

— until they can live on their own.

A similar example can be found in emperor penguins (帝企鹅) living in cold areas. The male

emperor penguin goes without food while looking after his egg until it hatches. For about 62 to 67 days,
