buy some plants and seeds for our garden. It was a sunny day when we went
there.
When we arrived, we had to find a place to park because, the car park
was packed full of cars. We managed to find a place to park eventually but it
was a tight squeeze and we had to be careful opening the car’s door to avoid
banging the other cars. After that, we went into the store looking for some
seeds and buying some peas, carrot and lettuce packets. We then went to look
at the plants and mum chose a planter full of flowers. Finally, we paid for all
our purchases at the checkout counter, before finding our car.

27. Once upon a time was a water-bearer in India who had two large pots each hung on
each end of a pole which he carried across his neck. One of the pots had a crack in it,
and while the other pot was perfect and always delivered a full portion of water at the end
of the long walk, from the stream to the master’s house, the cracked pot arrived only half
full.
After two years of what it perceived to be a bitter failure, the poor cracked pot spoke
to the water-bearer one day by the stream. “I am ashamed of myself, and i want to
apologize to you.” “Why?” asked the bearer. “What are you ashamed of?” “I have been
able to deliver only half my load because this crack in my side causes water to leak out all
the way back to your master’s house. I want you to notice the beautiful along the path.”
The bearer said to the pot, “Did you notice that there were flowers only on your side
of your path, but not on the other pot’s side? That’s because of your flaw. And I took
advantage of it. I planted flower seeds on your side of the path, and every day while
walking back from the stream, you’ve watered them. For two years I have been able to
pick these beautiful flowers to decorate my master’s table. Without your being just the way
you are, he would not have this beauty to grace his house.”

They can wipe out entire cities and kill thousands of people. The name of
volcano comes from Roman term. It derives from Vulcan which is the name of
Roman Fire God. Romans believed that Vulcan lived on a volcanic Italian
coast. Romans called the island vulcano.
According to scientist, volcanic eruptions are divided into four basic
groups. They are commonly known as Hawaiian, Strombolian, Vulcanian and
Peleean. The term of Hawaiian eruptions are named after the volcanoes in
Hawaii. These volcanic eruptions are the least violent type. They produce
highly fluid lava which flows quietly. This gradually braids up a shield volcano.
Strombolian eruptions are named after Stromboli. Vulcanian eruption happens
and brings magma which is more viscous. Vulcanian explosions are usually
larger and noisier than the Strombolian eruptions. A Peleean eruption occurs
when the magmatic gas build up tremendous pressure. This causes violent
explosions with glowing clouds of hot ash and dust.

cliff. Such flows can be destructive for life and property. Avalanches are most
common on slopes exceeding 30. Pellet like snow (graupnel) is also more
prone to avalanche than a fall of ordinary snowflakes. Flow of wind-packed
slabs of snow can be especially hazardous.
Disastrous avalanche occur when massive slabs of snow break loose
from a mountainside and shatter like broken glass as they race downhill.
These moving masses can reach speeds of 80 miles (130 kilometers) per
hour within about five seconds.
Storminess, temperature, wind, slope steepness and orientation (the
direction it faces), terrain, vegetation, and general snowpack conditions are all
factors that influence whether and how a slope avalanche. Different
combinations of these factors create low, moderate, considerable, and high
avalanche hazards.

serpents that can be distinguished from legless lizards by their lack of eyelids
and external ears. Like all squamates, snakes are ectothermic, amniotes
vertebrates covered in overlapping scales. Many species of snakes have skulls
with several more joints than their lizard ancestors, enabling them to swallow
prey much larger than their heads with their highly mobile jaws.
Living snakes are found on every continent except Antarctica, and on
most smaller land masses; exceptions include some large islands, such as
Ireland and New Zealand, and many small islands of the Atlantic and central
Pacific. Additionally, sea snakes are widespread throughout the Indian and
Pacific Oceans. More than 20 families are currently recognized, comprising
about 500 genera and about 3.400 species. They range in size from the tiny,
10 cm-long thread snake to the reticulated python of up to 6,95 meters (22,8 ft)
in length.

it has become both a global icon of France and one of the most recognizable
building in the world. The tower is the highest building in Paris and the most-
visited monument in the world. Millions of people visit it every year. The
engineer Gustave Eiffel came up with his name for this tower. The tower was
built as the entrance arch to the 1889 World’s Fair.
The tower is 324 metres (1.063 ft) tall, and is as high as an 81-story
building. Upon its completion, it is higher than the Washington Monument to
assume the title of the tallest man-made structure in the world, a title it held for
41 years, until the Chrysler Building in New York City was built in 1930; but,
due to the additional in 1957 of the antenna, the tower is now higher than the
Chrysler Building and it is the second-tallest structure in France after the 2004
Millau Viaduct.
