Our city park is beautiful! Lots of greenery, beautiful-smelling flowers, squirrels and other urban animals. I love this park. For me, it's more than just a big garden with animals. I've been walking there with my friends since I was born. To this day, we go there with our little group, love and feed the animals, and plant new trees.
Перевод:
Наш городской парк прекрасен! Много зелени, красиво пахнущих цветов, белок и других городских животных. Я люблю этот парк. Для меня это больше, чем просто большой сад с животными. Я хожу туда с друзьями с самого рождения. По сей день мы ходим туда с нашей маленькой группой, ласкаем и кормим животных, сажаем новые деревья.

“Come in. We have PUT a meat pie into the oven. I think it’ll be ready in forty minutes or so. You aren’t very hungry, are you?”
Betty was seven years YOUNGer than Laura, but she was much better at housekeeping.
When Laura entered the house, she saw four WOMeN in the sitting room.
They nodded and went on talking. “Where’s Ken?” asked Laura. “He is REPAIRing his car in the garage,” Laura said.
“He will JOIN us soon.”
Dr Michael Werner says that he has eaten nothing for four years. The German SCIENtists explains that he gets all his energy from sunlight. He says he drinks only water and DIFFERent fruit juices. Dr Werner has written an EXCITing book about his experiences. In it he says that when he started the experiment he even put on weight.
He says: "I can't really give an EXPLAnation of what’s happening to me; perhaps I just believe in my theory."
Dr Werner’s colleagues say that only plants can produce energy from the sun, and they cannot explain how he is able to stay HEALTHy.
“This case ,PROBABLy, needs a lot more research before we will be able to explain it,” they say.
What is the largest animal on the planet? My uncle says that it’s the blue whale. He is a SCIENtist and knows a lot about them. The blue whale is an endangered animal, nowadays, people protect whales. FORTUNATly, They study these BEAUTiful animals instead of killing them. Blue whales are notDANGERous to people. It’s unBELIEVABLE but these huge whales eat plankton – small plants and animals.
