It has a pair of tentacles(觸角) with eyes on the top, a small mouth, a soft body and it is always carrying its house. What is it? It is a snail.

A snail crawls very slowly. Scientists measured a snail’s crawling speed and found out that it can only advance 12 meters in an hour. I found out that snails love moving, although they crawl very slowly.

I kept a snail in a glass jar once and observed it. It was restless. It climbed from the bottom to the top of the glass jar and left a shiny water mark. I put it back at the bottom of the glass jar, but it climbed up again for a second time. The snail’s body was clinging onto the surface of the glass jar, struggled upwards and would not give up.

I was moved by the will of the snail. So I let it go.

The little snail shows great perseverance.
