お気に入りのぬいぐるみ

Một hôm Thỏ mẹ dặn Thỏ con: 
-" Thỏ con của mẹ, con ở nhà chớ đi chơi xa con nhé"
-" Vâng ạ, con ở nhà, con không đi chơi xa"
Nhưng Bươm bướm bay đến, Bươm bướm gọi:
-" Thỏ con ơi, ra vườn kia chơi đi. Ở đấy có cỏ này, có hoa này, thích lắm"
Thỏ con liền chạy theo Bươm bướm. Thỏ con đi chơi mãi, chơi mãi, xa, thật xa.
Thế rồi Thỏ con quên cả lối về nhà. Thỏ con khóc hu hu và gọi:
-" Mẹ ơi, mẹ ơi"
Bác Gấu đi qua, thấy Thỏ con khóc, Bác dắt Thỏ con về nhà. Thỏ mẹ chạy ra ôm Thỏ con.
Thỏ con nói với mẹ:
-" Mẹ, mẹ dặn con ở nhà, con lại đi chơi xa, con xin lỗi mẹ"

Around the world, "Kiwi" is a popular nickname for New Zealanders, and people from New Zealand will often call themselves "Kiwis" too. For most New Zealanders, the word Kiwi is a positive and friendly nickname — but where did it come from?

The name actually comes from the kiwi: a fluffy bird that has a round body, a long beak and cannot fly. It is only found in New Zealand.

While the bird was already used on New Zealand's stamps and money by the late 19th century, it was first used to represent New Zealand in 1904 — when it was used in a cartoon to represent the country's rugby team. After that, the bird was often shown in cartoons to represent the country.

During World War I, soldiers from New Zealand who were fighting in Europe wore an image of the bird on their uniforms. "Kiwi" became a popular nickname for these soldiers, and it continued to be used after the war.

So the people and the birds don't get mixed up, "Kiwi" as a nickname for New Zealanders is usually written with a capital K, while the bird's name is usually written with a small k: "kiwi."

The kiwi fruit, which is originally from China, is also named after the bird. In 1959, fruit exporters in New Zealand started calling it "kiwifruit" because its fluffy, brown skin looks similar to the fluffy bird.

However, it is important not to mix up Kiwi people, kiwi birds and the kiwi fruit! Although the fruit is usually just called "kiwi" in other parts of the world, New Zealanders only ever call it "kiwifruit."

Why Are New Zealanders Called Kiwis?

El Hojarasquín del Monte es un personaje que proviene de las regiones montañosas de Colombia, especialmente de Antioquia. Se le describe como un hombre cubierto de hojas secas y ramas, que habita en los bosques y selvas espesas. Su misión es proteger la naturaleza y asustar a quienes maltratan los árboles o cazan sin necesidad.

Se dice que cuando alguien corta un árbol innecesariamente o daña la vegetación, el Hojarasquín aparece entre las ramas y la maleza, haciendo ruidos aterradores con el crujido de las hojas secas. Los campesinos que han tenido la desgracia de encontrarse con él aseguran que es mejor no desafiarlo, porque tiene el poder de hacerte perder en el bosque durante días, o incluso para siempre. Para calmar su ira, algunos le dejan ofrendas de frutas o flores en los troncos de los árboles.
