such an easy game to play
Now I need a place to
hide away

Once upon a time in West Sumatra,
a widow took her two children to a party. Her children were very happy. They
wore beautiful clothes to the party. They ate delicious foods, and met many
guests in the party. Suddenly they saw a pond. The
water was very clear and fresh. Because the sun was very hot, they were
tempted to play in the water. So they took off their clothes and jumped
into the water. They swam together happily. When, the party was almost over,
the mother remembered her two children. She was desperate because she could
not find them. The day turned into night. The children were still missing.
The mother cried then went home without her children. She fell asleep after a long hour
of crying. And she had a dream about her children. In her dream, she met an
old woman. The old woman told her, “Your children are in the pond near the
party house. If you want to see them, throw a handful of rice into the pond.
Your children will appear.” As soon as she woke up, she quickly ran to the
pond. She also had a handful of rice in her hand. When she reached the
pond, she threw the rice into the pond and she called her children’s
names. The
dream was true! Two big fish with beautiful colors appeared in the pond. The

In 1991, Shark Bay was inscribed into the
UNESCO World Heritage list in recognition of its outstanding natural beauty,
biological diversity, fascinating ecology and unique insights into the
Earth's history. Here, you can meet the Monkey Mia dolphins, the world's
largest population of dugongs, walk among the largest and oldest living
fossils on the planet and discover the 30,000 year history and culture of its
Indigenous people.
The only town in the Shark Bay region is Denham. It's an eight hour
drive or a two hour flight from Perth and, from here, you can join the Shark
Bay World Heritage Drive, taking in all the main attractions. If you don't
have wheels, there are plenty of extended tours from Perth, or day and
half-day adventures from Denham.
A closer look at this vast landscape will reveal an abundance of rare
and unique plant and animal life, some of which are found nowhere else on
Earth. It's home to over 100 known species of reptiles and amphibians, 240
varieties of birds, 320 types of fish, 80 different corals and 820 species of
plants, including 700 flowering species. Protecting many endangered species,
Shark Bay's Francois Peron National Park is one of the most important
wilderness areas in Australia.
Further south in Shark Bay, you can walk along one of only two beaches
in the world formed entirely of tiny white shells, or visit the Hamelin Pool
Stromatolites and get a glimpse of life on Earth over 3,500 million years
ago.
By far the most popular and spectacular attraction is Monkey Mia,
where wild dolphins come in to shore every day to meet and interact with
people.
Choose from a huge variety of accommodation options in Denham, or base
yourself in Monkey Mia for an early morning dolphin encounter. |

Ability to speak in public is an asset and
it comes with several benefits. It can not only boost some aspects of your
personal life, but your professional life as well.
Public speaking can contribute to the growth of knowledge. It helps
you share whatever valuable ideas and thoughts you might have, with a larger
group of people. In return, you also learn a lot when those people challenge
your ideas and question your opinions. It allows you to develop a clearer
picture of the subject.
Public speaking helps you develop the ability to persuade. When you
speak confidently and convincingly to a large group of people, persuading an
individual to carry out a task becomes much easier.
Besides persuasion attempt and knowledge growth, public speaking
can improve your critical thinking
abilities. When you sit and prepare a speech for a seminar or a workshop, you
automatically tend to focus on the quality of your work. You will be forced
to do a lot of research in order to get the content right. It will help you
develop better ways to deliver your content and design it with relevance.
Your personal life also gains a lot from public speaking. The
confidence you develop from public speaking can support you with building
more personal relationships. It becomes much easier to socialize and make new
friends.
So, public speaking skills enhance your professional and personal
lives. These will boost your personal quality in connecting with people. |

The French Caribbean islands of Guadeloupe and
Martinique thrive on their image as idyllic sun, sea and sand destinations
for tourists. But few visitors are aware that
these lush, tropical islands have a chronic pollution problem. A pesticide linked to cancer - chlordecone - was
sprayed on banana crops on the islands for two decades and now nearly all the
adult local residents have traces of it in their blood. French President Emmanuel Macron has called it an
"environmental scandal" and said the state "must take
responsibility". He visited Martinique last year and was briefed on the
crisis on the islands, known in France as the Antilles. The French parliament is holding a public inquiry which
will report its findings in December. "We found anger and anxiety in the Antilles - the
population feel abandoned by the republic," said Guadeloupe MP Justine
Benin, who is in charge of the inquiry's report. "They are resilient people, they've been hit by
hurricanes before, but their trust needs to be restored," she told the
BBC. Large tracts of soil are contaminated, as are rivers
and coastal waters. The authorities are trying to keep the chemical out of
the food chain, but it is difficult, as much produce comes from smallholders,
often sold at the roadside. Drinking water is considered safe, as carbon filters
are used to remove contaminants. In the US a factory producing chlordecone - sold
commercially as kepone - was shut down in 1975 after workers fell seriously
ill there. But Antilles banana growers continued to use the pesticide. https://www.bbc.com/news/world-europe-50144261 October 25th, 2019 |

The body of an adult insect is subdivided into head, a
thorax of three segments, and a segmented abdomen, ordinarily; the thorax bears
three pairs of legs. One or two pairs of wings may be attached to the thorax.
Most adult insects have two large compound eyes, and two or three small simple
eyes. Features of the mouth parts or mandibles are the maxillae, which serve to
direct food into the mouth between the jaws , a labrum above and labium below
are similar to an upper and lower lip, in insects with sucking mouth parts ,the
mandibles , maxillae , labrum and labium are modified to provide a tube through
which liquid can be drawn. In butterfly or moth the coiled drinking tube is
called the proboscis can be extended to reach nectar deep in a flower. In a
mosquito or an aphid, mandibles and maxillae are modified to sharp styles with
which the insect can drill through surfaces to reach juice.

The
following text is for questions 34 to 36.
Have you ever been stuck on the side of the
road with a flat tire? Do you want to be able to change a tire without having
to ask for help? Fortunately, changing a tire is a pretty simple task,
provided you're prepared and willing to exert a little effort. 1. Find a flat, stable and safe place to change your
tire. You should have a solid, level surface that will
restrict the car from rolling. If you are near a road, park as far from
traffic as possible and turn on your emergency flashers (hazard lights).
Avoid soft ground and hills. 2. Apply the parking brake and put car into
"Park" position. If you have a standard transmission, put
your vehicle in first or reverse. 3. Place a heavy object (e.g.,
rock, concrete, spare wheel, etc.) in front of the front and back tires. 4. Take out the spare tire and the jack.
Place the jack under the frame near the tire that you are going to change.
Ensure that the jack is in contact with the metal portion of your car's frame
5. Raise the jack until it is supporting (but not
lifting) the car. The jack should be firmly in place against
the underside of the vehicle. Check to make sure that the jack is
perpendicular to the ground. 6. Remove the hubcap and loosen the nuts by turning counterclockwise.
Don't take them all the way off; just break the resistance. By keeping the
wheel on the ground when you first loosen the nuts, you'll make sure that
you're turning the nuts instead of the wheel. 7. Pump or crank the jack to lift the tire off the
ground. You need to lift it high enough to remove the flat
tire and replace it with a spare. 8. Remove the nuts the rest of the way.
Turn them counterclockwise until they are loose. Repeat with all lug nuts,
then remove the nuts completely. 9. Remove the tire. Place the flat
tire under the vehicle so in the event of a jack failure the vehicle will
fall on the old wheel, hopefully preventing injury. If the jack is placed on
a flat, solid base, you shouldn't have any problems. 10. Place the spare tire on the hub.
Take care to align the rim of the spare tire with the wheel bolts, then put
on the lug nuts. 11. Tighten the nuts by hand until they are all snug 12. Lower the car without applying full weight on the
tire. Tighten the nuts as much as possible. 13. Lower the car to the ground fully and remove the
jack. Finish tightening the nuts and replace the hubcap. |

I
was in my second grade of senior high school, when my friends and I went to
Lombok for a vacation. it was really a great holiday.
Firstly, we visited Gili Meno Beach. The beach was so magnificent with
is white sand and blue sea water. That day, a lot of tourists went there. Most
of them were foreigners. I was also excited when I saw Bryan Adam, the pop
singer. I took a photograph with him.
Next day, we started the day by visiting Batu Bolong beach. We play on a banana boat and with a
Jet Ski. It was exciting, I fell into the water many times. After that, we went
to Pura Batu Bolong, a small temple by the beach. It is a good place to take
photographs. We ended the journey that day by watching the amazing sunset in
Kuta Bali, as well as the beautiful waves of the sea.
On the last day, went to a Sasak village. It was a very memorable moment
because I could enjoy their unique culture. We were guided by local people. He
said that Sasak people had inhabited Lombok since ancient times. He also
explained the uniqueness of the Sasak buildings, similar to warehouses. We also
learned to weaves from a Sasak woman. We spent almost hours there. We bought
some Sasak souvenirs too.
Sadly, we had to check out of the hotel in the evening. We almost missed
the flight home because there was a traffic jam on the way to the airport.

Dear Yenny, Please let me express my deepest sympathies to you
and the children. I was shocked and shattered when I heard about Adam's
horrific accident. I can't even imagine what you have been going through for
the past fifteen days. As you know, Adam and I have been closed as nephew
and aunty. His tragic loss leaves a terrible void in our family. He was so
well-liked and loved by everyone who came into contact with him, both family
and relatives alike. He had tremendous personality and was a good boy. Yenny, please feel free to contact me if I can help
in any way while you go through this very difficult period. I will support
you in any way that I can. You should reach out to me. Also, please tell Puti how terribly devastated all of
