My attention was attracted by it almost as soon as I stepped out of Sydney airport and pretty soon I was doing it too—the Australian salute! The gesture consists of the fingers of your hand raised half voluntarily as if to swat away something occupying facial space and upsetting one’s mental equilibrium, but in the end the movement is obviously nothing more threatening than a half-hearted attempt to brush away the pesky, ubiquitous Australian fly. Indeed, I now realize I had seen it often in cricket broadcasts: Big Tony Greig, it is obvious, was doing it in the sidelines, while commentating, as was modestly built Rickie Ponting while taking guard, or brawny Bret Lee when darting in to bowl his lightning-quick balls. And my wife and I were going to do it again and again the three weeks we spent in Down Under Land whether in and around the cities of Sydney, Canberra, Melbourne, or Brisbane, where we were to spend 21 pleasure-filled “high” Australian summer (late December to early January ) days!
The Australian salute! I was to see it in beaches, on mountains, outside houses as well as shopping malls, everywhere! It is almost an instinctive gesture, but also a conscious one, telling you that no Australian will attempt to hurt even so horrid, persistent, and irritating a thing such as the common fly. As a young boy growing up not so far away from the drains of old Dhaka, I had been trained to repel it by violent means, as an undergraduate at the University of Dhaka I had pondered the profound realization of the cruelty of nature reflected in Shakespeare’s unforgettable lines (“As flies to wanton boys are we to the Gods, they kill us for their sport “), but here in Australia I was to find out that the aggressive fly always has its way; Australians will not hurt it or “apply desperate physic” as some other Shakespearean somebody had said somewhere. And that is why in Australia I saw wild birds stroll listlessly or indifferently by or swans swim languidly or daintily past Man, not bothered and secure in the knowledge that He had never used a boomerang or a gun to destroy him for quite some time now.

Edinburgh is a metropolis but its volcanic origin is still evident. This is shown by its hilly surroundings and majestic nature, such as Arthur’s Seat, Salisbury Crags, and Calton Hill. Edinburgh is a captivating experience - even when you arrive back home, the city will never leave you completely.

The Roman Empire A Historical Colossus.pdfkaushalkr1407
The Roman Empire, a vast and enduring power, stands as one of history's most remarkable civilizations, leaving an indelible imprint on the world. It emerged from the Roman Republic, transitioning into an imperial powerhouse under the leadership of Augustus Caesar in 27 BCE. This transformation marked the beginning of an era defined by unprecedented territorial expansion, architectural marvels, and profound cultural influence.
The empire's roots lie in the city of Rome, founded, according to legend, by Romulus in 753 BCE. Over centuries, Rome evolved from a small settlement to a formidable republic, characterized by a complex political system with elected officials and checks on power. However, internal strife, class conflicts, and military ambitions paved the way for the end of the Republic. Julius Caesar’s dictatorship and subsequent assassination in 44 BCE created a power vacuum, leading to a civil war. Octavian, later Augustus, emerged victorious, heralding the Roman Empire’s birth.
Under Augustus, the empire experienced the Pax Romana, a 200-year period of relative peace and stability. Augustus reformed the military, established efficient administrative systems, and initiated grand construction projects. The empire's borders expanded, encompassing territories from Britain to Egypt and from Spain to the Euphrates. Roman legions, renowned for their discipline and engineering prowess, secured and maintained these vast territories, building roads, fortifications, and cities that facilitated control and integration.
The Roman Empire’s society was hierarchical, with a rigid class system. At the top were the patricians, wealthy elites who held significant political power. Below them were the plebeians, free citizens with limited political influence, and the vast numbers of slaves who formed the backbone of the economy. The family unit was central, governed by the paterfamilias, the male head who held absolute authority.
Culturally, the Romans were eclectic, absorbing and adapting elements from the civilizations they encountered, particularly the Greeks. Roman art, literature, and philosophy reflected this synthesis, creating a rich cultural tapestry. Latin, the Roman language, became the lingua franca of the Western world, influencing numerous modern languages.
Roman architecture and engineering achievements were monumental. They perfected the arch, vault, and dome, constructing enduring structures like the Colosseum, Pantheon, and aqueducts. These engineering marvels not only showcased Roman ingenuity but also served practical purposes, from public entertainment to water supply.

Nuestro viaje de Comenius a Stratford-upon-Avon
1.
2. How Comenius works
Comenius is an English project
organized by several European
countries which main aim is to
communicate students from several
cities in Europe.
Specifically, our project involves
collecting information about job
opportunities for young people. This
information will be uploaded to
‘eTwinning’, a social platform we will
also use to keep in contact with the rest
of European high schools.
3. In Stratford, we had to plan with the rest of Comenius students the activity we will
do when they come to Spain. The first activity will be an orienteering event and
then we will play some beach games.
The best part of the project was working with them because we have many foreign
friends and we have improved our English.

When
and where
6. Stratford-upon-Avon is a small historic town and civil parish in south Warwickshire,
England (civil parish means ‘a small administrative territory with a local
government’). It is situated on River Avon and is internationally renowned as
William Shakespeare’s birthplace. Over 25 thousand people live there.

The town name is
derived from the Old
English name of
Straet meaning
‘Street’ and Ford that
meant that it forded
the river into the town.

9. Magic, mystery and monsters...
Welcome to the world of Dr Thaddeus
Bombay! It is known as England’s
most magical visitor experience. There
you can find the Wand Emporium and
the House of Wizardry.
10. ’s birthplace
William Shakespeare was born in Stratford-upon-Avon in 1564. He is regarded as
the greatest writer in the English language, producing many plays, sonnets and
poems. In this town we can find Shakespeare Birthplace Trust, a foundation
consisting of Shakespeare's Birthplace and some of his relatives’ houses. This is
why Stratford is so closely linked to Shakespeare.

Shakespeare’s
birthplace gives you
the chance to get
unique coins with
different Shakespeare
topics for one pound
and one penny each.

12. There are about 1,600 students in Stratford-upon-Avon
School. It is really big, like three times as big as ours,
because there are students from many nearby towns.
13. Stratford-upon-Avon School is simply amazing! The most impressive facilities are
the track, the gymnasium, the football pitch, the canteen and the library.
The timetables are different too: school starts at 9 a.m. and finishes at 3 p.m., and
there are two breaks (20 minutes and 40 minutes). The high school is so advanced
and modern that when students go to pay for their meals, they only have to put
their index finger in a sensor which adds the bill to their account.
14. Lucia’s host family
My host family lives in a village near Stratford, in a big two-story house in the
middle of the country. My host parents Charlotte and Bryan have three daughters,
Amy (14), Jasmine (12) and Katie (6). Charlotte is a nurse and Bryan works for a
gas company. They have got a dog named Lily. We went to Bristol because of
Amy’s grandfather’s 80th birthday party, and to Bourton-on-the-Water.
15. Alfonso’s host family
My host family lives relatively not far from school, in the town centre. Their house
is a two-story building. My host parents Rita and Rob have two red-haired sons,
Patrick (14) and Alex (11). Rita looks after old people and Rob works at a Land
Rover dealer. They have got a hamster named Toby. We went to Broadway and to
Bourton-on-the-Water, where Lucia and me met by chance.
