Spoof is a text which tells factual story, happened in the past time with unpredictable and funny ending. Its social function is to entertain and share the story.
The story of a deaf girl's connection to a whale whose song can't be heard by his species, and the journey she takes to help him.From fixing the class computer to repairing old radios, twelve-year-old Iris is a tech genius. But she's the only deaf person in her school, so people often treat her like she's not very smart. If you've ever felt like no one was listening to you, then you know how hard that can be.When she learns about Blue 55, a real whale who is unable to speak to other whales, Iris understands how he must feel. Then she has an idea: she should invent a way to sing to him! But he's three thousand miles away. How will she play her song for him? .
SUMMARY:
The monitoring process of reading from ten children with Down´s Syndrome
is presented in a center of Early Childhood Intervention (CAIT), with the objective to
define the level of monitoring by the reading methodology in schools, which is started
with them in the center of Early Childhood Intervention. In this context, the report
which we present shows the obtained results in the Early Intervention Program. It is
carried in the Down´s Syndrome Association in Jaén, after the observation process of
the early reading learning, the related methodology with reading. It is observed that,
schools with these children are independent of the Early Intervention Program.

Operation “Blue Star” is the only event in the history of Independent India where the state went into war with its own people. Even after about 40 years it is not clear if it was culmination of states anger over people of the region, a political game of power or start of dictatorial chapter in the democratic setup.
The people of Punjab felt alienated from main stream due to denial of their just demands during a long democratic struggle since independence. As it happen all over the word, it led to militant struggle with great loss of lives of military, police and civilian personnel. Killing of Indira Gandhi and massacre of innocent Sikhs in Delhi and other India cities was also associated with this movement.
The French Revolution, which began in 1789, was a period of radical social and political upheaval in France. It marked the decline of absolute monarchies, the rise of secular and democratic republics, and the eventual rise of Napoleon Bonaparte. This revolutionary period is crucial in understanding the transition from feudalism to modernity in Europe.

them.“

Q: What similes do you hear?
13. A Day At The Farm

“cock-doodle-doo,” and the horses

be careful, Madge. We don’t want

brown?
