FISHERMEN FOUND SAFE AND SOUND
There Taiwanese fishermen were rescued yesterday from a small uninhabited island in the South Pacific. The men had
disappeared for more than three months.
They had left Taiwan in a small fishing boat and had planned a week-long. On their fifth day, however, they encountered a
typhoon, and it badly damaged their boat. Fortunately, no one passed, thought, they discovered that the engine wouldn´t
start, so their boat just drifted at sea for over a month. During this time, the fishermen caught fish to eat and drank rain
water to stay alive.
Finally, the boat drifted toward a small island. When it got close enough, the men jumped out and swam to shore. On the
island, they found fresh fruit and vegetables, and they continued to catch fish to eat.
The fishermen had lived on the island for two month when a passing ship rescued them.
Although the three men had lost a lot of weight, they were still in fairly good shape. Their families feared that the
fishermen had died during the typhood. They were surprised and happy that the ship had found them and that they were
safe and sound.

Parents……. and teachers too!
All children in the United States have to receive an education, but the law doesn’t say they have to be educated in a
school. A growing number of parents prefer not to send their children to school. Children who are educated at home are
known as “homeschoolers”. It is estimated that there are now between 1.5 and 1.9 million homeschoolers in the United
States, about 4 percent of school-age children.
Some parents prefer to teach their children at home because they do not believe that schools teach the correct religious
values. Others believe they can provide a better education for their children at home. There are now many Web sites
about homeschooling, and many parents who teach their children at home use the Internet to exchange ideas and
resources. Interestingly, results show that homeschooled children often do better than average on national test in reading
and math.
