圣诞老人形象是可口可乐公司创造出来的，自从20世纪20年代以来，圣诞老人就一直出现在可乐广告中。

2. Cats have over 100 vocal chords. Makes you wonder how many keys they can say “Meow” in! And cats can sleep 16 hours or more every 24 hours.
猫咪可以发出超过100种声音，你可能会想知道喵星人到底能发出来多少种音调的“喵” 叫声。另外猫咪每天能睡16个小时甚至更久。

3. Shrimp can only swim backwards, turtles breathe through their asses, fish can drown and a duck can’t walk without bobbing its head. This always looks so funny to me.
虾只会往后游，乌龟用屁股呼吸，鱼也会溺水，鸭子不摆头就不会走。这些我都觉得好有趣！

4. 11% of people in the world are left-handed. Makes you wonder about all those left-handed desks there were in elementary school. When you mistakenly sat in one everything was wrong with the world.
世界上有11%的人是左撇子， 这可能会让你想到小学里有的左撇子课桌。要是不小心跟左撇子坐了同桌，你会发现全世界都混乱了。

蒙娜丽莎没有眉毛。

6. The average raindrop falls at 7mph, which is I guess why it hurts so much when hail is pelleting you from the sky.
雨点平均下降速度为每小时7英里（约为11千米），我猜这也是为什么冰雹从天空中降落砸到我们会觉得那么疼。

不管你多努力地尝试，你都无法将一张纸对半折超过7次，我试过了，我做不到。

9. If you think about it, “Typewriter” is the longest word you can type on a keyboard that only uses a single row of qwerty letters.

10. Because things get expand when they heated, hot water is actually HEAVIER than cold water.
