TIGER – MY<br />

FAVORITE ANIMAL<br />

Tigers live in Asia, Caucasus, Caspian Sea, Siberia and Indonesian<br />

islands. Their habitats are forests, grasslands, savannahs and taiga<br />

forests. If you want to see a tiger you can go to the zoo. In the wild<br />

they could kill you.<br />

It’s a wild animal and a beast. Tigers are very heavy and long<br />

animals. It is a big orange cat with black stripes. It has got black<br />

stripes. It has got quite big head, a snout, whiskers, small eyes,<br />

small ears, a mouth, quite a big body, four legs, four paws with<br />

sharp claws and a long tail. It has got sharp senses. The legs are<br />

quite long. The teeth have to be sharp, because it eats other animals.<br />

A tiger is a dangerous animal. It’s also quite quiet, strong and brave.<br />

In the wild the tiger feeds on large and medium-sized animals like<br />

deer, buffalo, fish, young rhino and many more. Tigers can run<br />

really fast. It can rip off any animal’s skin with its teeth.<br />

I like tigers because they have a good pattern and look like Garfield.<br />

I sur rviveed<br />

a plane p e crassh<br />

My name is Johhn<br />

Smith. I’ ’m 42 yearss<br />

old. This story s takes place p in the 1<br />

I woorked<br />

for the e US army.<br />

st World War W where<br />

Sept tember 25<br />

The<br />

thou<br />

then<br />

Whe<br />

there<br />

sear<br />

over<br />

army<br />

whe<br />

the n<br />

th 11918<br />

final days of the war and itts<br />

final missio on were closerr<br />

and closer. I was determin ned for that miission.<br />

I flew alone a to Germmany.<br />

Well I<br />

ught I did, but something was<br />

wrong with h my compasss,<br />

so instead I flew to the Am mazon. I realiized<br />

that when n I saw the junngle.<br />

But by<br />

n it was too latte.<br />

I was hit. I didn’t even see<br />

from wheree<br />

the shot cam me. I was reall ly scared becaause<br />

I had a nu uclear bomb oonboard.<br />

en I crashed, I was surprised<br />

that the bom mb didn’t bloww<br />

up and that I was still aliv ve. Later, I fouund<br />

out that th he bomb was ffake.<br />

In it<br />

e was a Germman<br />

spy. He diddn’t<br />

survive th he crash. I alsso<br />

found out th hat he was the e one that disab abled the comp pass. I quicklyy<br />

started the<br />

rch for food annd<br />

water. I gott<br />

rid of the dea ad body and sset<br />

a camp in the t crashed plane.<br />

I was doiing<br />

almost the e same thing oover<br />

and<br />

r again for twoo<br />

months. Onee<br />

of those last t days was diff fferent. In one of those days s I found a seccret<br />

base that belonged b to thhe<br />

German<br />

y. I got in therre<br />

undetected and destroyed d the base justt<br />

before the US U army arrive ed. I was finallly<br />

safe. They took me backk<br />

to the base<br />

ere my family was waiting ffor<br />

me. We we ent home and had an amazi ing dinner. Tw wo weeks laterr<br />

I became a hero h and the general<br />

of<br />

new and imprroved<br />

US armyy.<br />

CRASH<br />

H IN THHE<br />

JUN NGLE<br />

It was July, , one of the hhottest<br />

month hs in the yeaar.<br />

I was at th he airport, wa aiting for my plane. My in ntention was to go to<br />

Braz zil for a month.<br />

I was wondering,<br />

this would be a great advent ture, such a nice vacationn!<br />

Sunbathin ng, swimmingg<br />

and<br />

slee eping all day, , every day ffor<br />

a whole month! m I coulddn’t<br />

wait. All was well on the way but it went wron ng quickly.<br />

My plane wwas<br />

finally theere<br />

and it wa as time for me<br />

to go on it. . I was in the e first class oon<br />

the plane and it was like<br />

in the<br />

pres sidential apaartment.<br />

I gott<br />

everything I wanted. Weell...<br />

let me explain<br />

what happened neext.<br />

We were e flying and eeverything<br />

was s okay. Then something bburst.<br />

I was shocked. s Eveerybody<br />

was s calm, so I th hought nothing<br />

happened d. I was sick.<br />

I had a<br />

hea adache. I wass<br />

wondering, , what was happening.<br />

Thhen<br />

the stew wardess was in panic. She<br />

screamed. . I asked herr<br />

what<br />

was s going on. SShe<br />

was cryinng.<br />

She said that we weree<br />

crashing. I was shocke ed again. I coouldn’t<br />

believ ve her. I evenn<br />

asked<br />

her, , if she was jooking<br />

because<br />

the first of<br />

April had gone<br />

by a lon ng time ago. But she criedd<br />

again. She e told me thatt<br />

nothing<br />

like that ever haappened<br />

to her.<br />

We were all panic. WWe<br />

didn’t know w what to do.<br />

And then... .BOOOM! I was w in a comma<br />

for the<br />

next<br />

five hours. Then I wokee<br />

up in a brok ken plane. MMaybe<br />

you do on’t know tha at feeling but once you ar re in a broken<br />

plane,<br />

you feel as if you<br />

were half ddead.<br />

At leas st that’s how I felt. I didn’t t even know where I wass.<br />

I was so sc cared. Then I figured it<br />

out. I was in the jungle, nearr<br />

the Amazon n River and I was the onl ly one who survived.<br />

Oh my gosh. Lo ooking over thhose<br />

dead<br />

bodies<br />

was so ssad<br />

that I couuldn’t<br />

help myself,<br />

so I cried.<br />

Then I had h to go out t of that unluccky<br />

plane. I couldn’t c evenn<br />

breathe<br />

anymore.<br />

But beefore<br />

I went oout,<br />

I took the<br />

pilot’s ruckksack<br />

just in case. Later I realized thaat<br />

taking it wa as indeed a good idea!<br />

The ere were so mmany<br />

useful things for saving<br />

my life. There was a huge bottle e of water, a blanket, a la amp, a box off<br />

matches,<br />

a ha ammer, somee<br />

rope, a kniife<br />

and scissors<br />

in that ruucksack!<br />

It was<br />

dark and I decided to go to sleep. I slept undeer<br />

some<br />

bushes<br />

and somme<br />

trees. At nnight<br />

it was cold, c so I wraapped<br />

myself<br />

in a blanket.<br />

Then the nnext<br />

day cam me and it wass<br />

so hot! It<br />

was s about 35°CC.<br />

I drank a bit<br />

of water. I was hungry. . At first, I ate e some fruit that t I picked from the tree es, but that wwasn’t<br />

eno ough for an adult.<br />

So I waas<br />

starving fo or the next thhree<br />

hours. I explored the e jungle and tthen<br />

I was surprised.<br />

Didd<br />

I hear a<br />

river?<br />

So I followwed<br />

the sounnd<br />

and I foun nd it. I thoughht<br />

to myself: “I am so luck ky!” I cut a sttick<br />

with a kn nife. Then thee<br />

second<br />

day passed andd<br />

it was night again. I took k my lamp annd<br />

my stick. I was going to catch somme<br />

fish and I did. Then I mmade<br />

fire<br />

with h some stickss<br />

and some mmatches<br />

from m the rucksaack.<br />

I baked the t fish and I wasn’t starvving<br />

anymore e. Then I heaard<br />

some<br />

stra ange bird andd<br />

animal voicces<br />

around me m and I trulyy<br />

thought tha at those anim mals were goiing<br />

to eat me e. But I wasnn’t<br />

loud so<br />

they y couldn’t findd<br />

me. Two mmore<br />

days pa assed. I drannk<br />

water, I ate e fish and fru uits, I washedd<br />

myself in a river and soo<br />

on. Then<br />

the fifth day camme.<br />

I becamee<br />

a real Tarza an in that junngle.<br />

I caught<br />

one more fish<br />

for my brreakfast.<br />

Actually<br />

I ate fissh<br />

all<br />

day every day; for breakfast,<br />

for lunch, and a for dinneer.<br />

Then I clim mbed on a high<br />

tree and then a mirac cle happenedd.<br />

I saw a<br />

resc cue helicopteer<br />

which camme<br />

to find me e. I grabbed ssome<br />

sticks and a some matches<br />

and I made a hug ge fire. Peopple<br />

in that<br />

helic copter saw mme<br />

and they came for me e. They gavee<br />

me more water<br />

to drink because I diidn’t<br />

have an ny of it anymore.<br />

We<br />

flew w back to my country and I finally esca aped from thhat<br />

jungle.<br />

The first thiing<br />

I did wheen<br />

I came back<br />

home? I aate<br />

somethin ng that wasn’ t fish. This wwas<br />

such a good g adventuure<br />

actu ually. I learneed<br />

so much. Now I even know how too<br />

survive if yo ou crash with h an airplanee<br />

in the jungle e and you arre<br />

the only<br />

one e who survivees,<br />

but I’m suure<br />

that I’m not n going to ffly<br />

by plane anymore. a The e next day I wwas<br />

on TV and a in all of thhe<br />

new wspapers.<br />

Dear<br />

I wou uld like tto<br />

share some in nformatiion<br />

with h you regarding<br />

a thing that hass<br />

chang ged our lives, thhe<br />

computer.<br />

Thhe<br />

compu uter is a really immportan<br />

nt thing<br />

in our<br />

lives nnowadayys,<br />

since it can provide<br />

us u with informat i tion,<br />

entertainmennt,<br />

musicc<br />

and mu uch morre.<br />

The compute c er is a mmachine<br />

with w<br />

many y advanttages,<br />

foor<br />

examp ple: you can use e the inte ernet to browse e for<br />

anyth hing, from<br />

informmation<br />

to t transllations.<br />

But, of course, c tthe<br />

computer<br />

haas<br />

disadvantagees<br />

as well,<br />

but th hey are a lot diff ferent th han the aadvantages,<br />

for<br />

exam mple: youu<br />

can beecome<br />

ad ddicted to it, try y to avo oid this bbecause<br />

it can<br />

really y hurt yoour<br />

mentality<br />

an nd sanityy.<br />

The co omputer r has a vvery<br />

spec cific rolee<br />

in my y life as iit<br />

has in anyone e else's. In<br />

any ca ase, the computer<br />

helps me with<br />

schoo ol work like hommework<br />

and powwerpoin<br />

nt presen ntations but it provides p<br />

me with w commmunicattion<br />

as well, w I taalk<br />

with my frien nds via sskype<br />

ev very dayy,<br />

this is s anotheer<br />

advanntage<br />

tha at is relatted<br />

to th he comp puter. I ccan<br />

also play<br />

video o games for enteertainme<br />

ent but I make sure<br />

not to overddo<br />

it.<br />

You can c alwaays<br />

use yyour<br />

com mputer ffor<br />

yout t persona al enterttainment<br />

but it<br />

also comes c inn<br />

handy when you y needd<br />

to writ te an ess say or mmake<br />

a<br />

powe erpoint ppresentaation,<br />

I spend s almost<br />

my y whole e day at my com mputer<br />

and I know tthat<br />

isn't good but b I still do ever rything there, t allthough<br />

the<br />

reaso onable thhing<br />

to ddo<br />

would<br />

be jusst<br />

using it i for homeworkk<br />

and th hen going<br />

out. Neverth N eless I wwill<br />

conti inue usinng<br />

it in my m own n way foor<br />

as long g as it<br />

suits me. m Hoppe<br />

this ggave<br />

you u an ideaa<br />

of the comput ter, I perrsonally<br />

enjoy<br />

using it and I hope you<br />

do to oo.<br />
