Hay fever is a common name for allergic rhinitis – meaning an allergy in the nose. The allergic reaction causes the nasal passages to become inflamed and produce more mucous. Some of the common symptoms are : sneezing; runny or stuffy nose; itchy ears ,nose and throat; red, itchy and watery eyes and sometimes headaches. Tips to try and reduce hay fever symptoms: 1: Stay indoors where possible on windy and stormy days. 2: Smear Vaseline on the inside of your nose to help stop the air-borne pollen touching the lining of your nose. 3: Splash your eyes often with cold water as this tries to flush out any pollen. 4: Try and reduce contact with known allergens. For example –pet fur, flowers, dust etc. 5: Anti-histamine medications in the form of tablets, nasal sprays and eye drops may help alleviate symptoms but you need to discuss this with your doctor or pharmacist.

My favorite book is Matilda, a book written by Ronald Dahl, which was published in 1988 in London by Jonathan Cape. It is about a girl who lives with a foster family who abuse her and do not give her affection. The girl goes to a school where a teacher is rude to children. But in that school she meets a very good teacher that is great. Professor and girl are slowly holding his affection and spending more time together. As they spend more time together, they realize they have much in common. At the end, Matilda’s parents are leaving the city because of problems with the law and they let her in custody of the teacher. Matilda is very happy.

THE ASS, THE FOX, AND THE LION An Ass and a Fox went into partnership and went out to search for food together. They hadn’t gone far before they saw a Lion coming their way, at which they were both extremely frightened. But the Fox thought he saw a way of saving his own skin, and went boldly up to the Lion and whispered in his ear, “I’ll manage that you shall get hold of the Ass without any trouble, if you’ll promise to let me go free.” The Lion agreed to this, and the Fox then rejoined his companion. Before long it managed to lead him by a hidden pit, which some hunter had dug as a trap for wild animals, and into which he fell. When the Lion saw that the Ass was safely caught and couldn’t get away, it was to the Fox that he first turned his attention, and he soon finished him off, and then at his leisure proceeded to feast upon the Ass.

It happened one weekend while I was at the fairground. I was with my friend Sarah and we were both really excited. The flashing lights and bright colours made everything appear magical. We were having a great time and we had been on most of the rides when Sarah pointed to the big wheel. The sign said “$1 for a two-minute ride”. At first I wasn’t sure, but Sarah had been on it before. “It only takes two minutes,” she said. “Come on- it’s a really thrilling ride!” A minute later we were in the air. It was like flying! “This is a mazing!” I shouted happily to Sarah. Then suddenly, there was a loud crash and everything stopped. I was really frightened! Sarah held my hand tightly because she was worried, too. We looked down and saw two mechanics. “Don’t worry,” they shouted. “It won’t take us long to fix it!” So we waited…and waited! At first we were amused. Everyone was running around below us. After a while though, it became scary up there. Two hours later, the wheel finally started to move again. I was so happy. It had been a long tiring evening. That two-minute ride had turned into a two-hour nightmare! (Reading and Writing Targets 2: Student Book, 1999, p. 48) What does paragraph 3 tell?

The beginning of the big wheel accident

How the writer overcame her fear

How the mechanic fixed the big wheel

Mars is a planet that is easy to spot in the night sky. It is called the Red Planet because of its fiery red-orange color. Mars comes closer to earth than any other planet except venus. At times it comes within 35 million miles (56 million km). It is similar to Earth in some respects. A day on Mars is only slightly longer than our own day. The planet has seasons like the Earth, only they are almost twice as long as ours. It has ice caps at the north and south poles, like Earth. They shrink in summer and grow again in winter. However, Mars is different from Earth in most other ways. It lies farther from the Sun and is much colder. Temperatures do not often rise above freezing, even in summer. It has only a very thin atmosphere, made up mainly of canbon dioxide gas. Some people used to think that there might be some form of life on Mars, but conditions there are not suitable for life as we know it to survive. (New Science Library: Universe and Sun, 1996, p.72) What is the main idea of paragraph 3?

Mars and the Earth have differences too

The Earth is closer to Sun than Mars does

Mars is much colder than the Earth

The Earth has more atmosphere than Mars does

Once there was a town called Hamelin. The only thing wrong was it was full of rats. They destroyed people’s farms, houses and food supplies. The people went to the mayor to solve the problem. One day, a strange man came to town. The stranger offered to get rid off the rats. In return, the mayor would give him money. The Pied Piper was a strange-looking man. He wore a tall, pointed hat, and a long, flowing cape. He played a long, shiny flute. The piper began to play in the town square. Rats came running from everywhere. They came out if the houses and the shops. The Pied Piper played up and down the streets. Everywhere he went, the rats followed him. The Pied Piper led the rats to the river. The rats all jumped into the river and drowned. The people cheered. They were happy to be rid of the rats. But the mayor changed his mind about the money. He refused to give any money at all to the Pied Piper. “Give me the money your promised,” he said. “If you don’t, I’ll play a different tune you will not like,” he warned. But the mayor still refused. The Pied Piper picked up his flute and began to play a new tune. Once the flute was played, all the children in the town were like being hipnotised. These children followed the Pied Piper wherever he was playing the flute. When The Pied Piper reached the river bank, he stopped walking, but the children were still walking toward the river. Fear of their safety, the mayor begged The Pied Piper to let the children go and paid the money he promised. All of sudden the children awoke and their parents rushed to get their beloved children. The Pied Piper was happy to get the money and the mayor finally learned a lesson from this. (Addison Wesley ESL Student book, 1992, p.39) Why did the Pied Piper say “I’ll play the tune you will not like”?

He wanted to entertain the mayor

He was happy to play another tune

He was very patient with the mayor

At least 19 people in Sumatra and Kalimantan have died, and mostly children, have been hospitalized because of severe respiratory illness cause by the haze. According to the National Disaster Mitigation Agency (BNPB), the ongoing haze crisis has resulted in more than 500,000 people in six provinces – Riau, Jambi, South Sumatra, West Kalimantan, Central Kalimantan, and South Kalimantan – suffering from respiratory infections.
As evidence indicates that most hot spots are related to oil and palm and pulpwood plantations, President has instructed the Forestry and Environment Ministry to stop issuing new permits for peat land cultivation for monoculture restore damage peat land and review all peat land licenses that have been issued. Put bluntly, companies can no longer convert active forests and deep peat or any peat area into monoculture plantations, such as acacia for pulp and oil palm plantations.
