 There was a Princess Polly who likes galloping on ponies. One day, she was in a trouble because she have got mud on her cloth. Her parents didn't like her to do that. That why, they got angry. "Princesses must not gallop," the King said. Then "Being a princess is boring," she said.

 After that, the King took her to the Royal Tower for she doesn't to gallop any more. On the way, she found a poster, which said "Pony Games". All ages could join that. She thought "I'd like to be in a race". If she get a first prize, she can get a Royal Wish. "Your mother and I are giving the first prize. Of course, you can not enter." said the King. At that time, she came up with a nice idea.

Plastic


We can recycle old plastic to make new things.(p.16)

     Today I read "Plastic", Oxford Read and Discover, a level 2 book. Do you know that paint is made from plastic?I hadn't know that before I read this. We can see lots of things made from plastic in our day life. Pens, CD, shoes, bottles are made from it. And we can recycle old plastic to make new things.

 We use many plastic but most made from oil. According to this book, today we can make plastic from plants,too! So, I think we should use plants for plastic not to waste our planet.

The stripes help the tiger to hide in a grass. Gazells use camouflage. They are the same color as the grass. Gazell hide and then lion can't see them.

Nowadays, human doesn't use camouflage. But previous time human may have used camouflage to survive from their natural enemy.
