Letter
Dear cousin:
I write to you because I would like to know how have you been. Well, this year I have done many things to make myself a better year. I have practiced a lot of swimming on school days, it really helps me to develop my muscles. Also every time I come back from school. I run up the stairs to watch TV. I also even go to school on my bicicle sometimes because my parents want me to do some exercise in the morning.
But this year I want to start weight lifting to develop my muscles even more to swim faster. People also say that touching your toes makes a better year so i'll try doing that this year. also now my mom wants me to go walking to school instead of cycling. So, what do yo think about all these facts to have a better year? I hope some time you use them, it really will help you. See you.
your cousin
Sebastian

botanic gardens october 26
I can see that these trees like very different from what I see every day because they are very green and with more history. They also look like Narnia trees. I think thet there are maybe little birds that tweak for these trees.
Maybe these trees taste good because of there green atractive leaves.
I think that these trees feel a little rough because of the years that they have. I hope also that these trees smell really good.

Coal mining: Comprehension Questions
- Underground mining is more dangerous because there can be movements that could destroy the mine and let many people die. But on the other hand, surface mining is on open air, not like underground mining that is underneath the ground.
- In surface mining, they use trucks, large earth moving machines and bulldozers.
- The tunnels are used for traveling throughout the mine, moving coal from place to place and allowing air to circulate in the mine.
- A conveyor belt takes coal out of the mine.
- There are three types of underground mines: slope, drift, and shaft.
surface mining, a slope mine can be built. In a slope mine a tunnel
slants down from the surface to the coal seam.
Drift: A drift mine is built when the coal seam lies in the side of a hill or mountain. Drift mines may also be built in a surface mine that has become too deep.
Shaft: These mines may be 125 to 1,000 feet deep. A large hole, or shaft, is drilled down into the ground until it reaches the coal seam.
Glossary:
- Dragline: a large machine used in the surface mining process to remove overburned, or layers of earth and rock, covering a coal seam.
- Subbituminous: type of coal with lower sulphur content than other types and so is cleaner-burning found mainly in western states and of US and Alaska.
- Overburned: layers of earth and rock covering a coal seam.
- Drift mine: type of mine created to access coal buried deep underground, charecterized by an entrance that is horizontal tunnel into the sean of coal.
- Deep mine: type of mine created to access coal buried deep underground, charecterized by a set of shafts dug straight down to the coal.
