A Visit to a
Wildlife Park
I recently visited Sydney with my parents. We visited many interesting places.
The one I enjoyed best was the Wildlife Park.
The Wildlife Park has a lot different Australian animals and birds. There are
over 600 animals, including kangaroos, wallabies, koala and crocodiles. They
are kept in their natural surroundings. I much preferred the Wildlife Park to a
zoo where a lot of animals are in cages.
We were able to walk along the kangaroos and wallabies. We were even allowed to
touch them and to feed them. It was very exciting to be very so close to them
We saw koala bears. They looked very cuddly. I got my photograph taken
with one of them. It is a wonderful souvenir of my holiday in Sydney.
We also went to see the crocodiles. The Wildlife Park has a lot of fresh-,
water and salt-water crocodiles. Some of them were very big and scary with,
huge teeth. I did not get very close to them.
We also visited the aviary. There were some very colorful birds there. I really
liked an old parrot which could talk.
I wish we could have spent more time in the Wildlife Park. There was so much to
see.

SANDY
I remember the day when I first got
Sandy, that is my cat. It is 7 year old. I wanted to name her because she was
so cute. My older sister Michelle convinced me to name her Sandy Bucket
instead; so we could call her Sandy for short. I was so attached to Sandy.
Every time I saw her, I couldn’t walk away; I would just have to hug her. I
even slept at the end of my bed, so I can hug her the whole night even though I
was freezing.
I always remember so many fun times with
Sandy. Like when we would run and jump off the end of our pier and Sandy would
chase after us. When I was scared or mad, I would just hug Sandy and everything
wouldn’t be so bad.
But one night, right before I went to
bed, my mom let her out. While I went to sleep, my mom went to call Sandy back
in. But she didn’t come in, so I thought she maybe went inside my neighbor’s
house. As my mom and dad went outside to look for Sandy, I became really
worried. They couldn’t find her. Every ten minutes they would go out to look
for her, so I went to bed hoping she was safe. I just thought she got lost and
would come back tomorrow.
The next day was the worst. My mom woke
us early and told me and my sister, Michelle, that Sandy died last night. I was
so sad and did not want to do anything that day. When I was going to school, I
could not stop crying. At school all my friends made me cards and tried to make
me stop crying, but I couldn’t. My teacher would always look at me and ask why
I was crying. Even my friends were crying with me.
When I got home I went to my room crying
really loudly. I wanted to scream. I came downstairs and hugged my mom. She
said we could get another cat. Then, she was trying to find a new cat on the
internet. But I did not want another cat. I want Sandy. She never found one
that looked like Sandy or at the same age or even in the same kind.
That night I slept with my mom and we
prayed for Sandy. I kept thinking she was a ghost at the end of the bed, so I
stayed closed to my mom. The next day I figured out that if Sandy was a ghost,
she would not scare me or haunt me. She would be waiting for me to play with
her.
I still think about Sandy every day and
wish she could come back.

One day, I had to teach a new English class. I read the list of new

Cristiano
Ronaldo was born on February 5, 1985, in Funchal, Madeira, Portugal.
Manchester United paid £12 million to sign him in 2003 - a record fee for a
player of his age. In the 2004 FA Cup Final, he scored Manchester's first three
goals and helped them capture the championship. In 2008, he set a franchise
record for goals scored. In 2009, Real Madrid paid a record $131 million for
his service.
It was
through his dad's work as an equipment manager at a boy's club that Ronaldo
was first introduced to the game of soccer. By the time he was 10 years old,
he was already recognized as a phenomenon - a kid who ate, slept and drank
the game. "All he wanted to do as a boy was playing football," his
godfather, Fernao Sousa, recalled for British reporters, adding, "He
loved the game so much that he'd miss meals or escape out his bedroom window
with a ball when he was supposed to be doing his homework."
By his early
teens, Ronaldo's talent and legend had grown considerably. After a stint with
Nacional da liha da Madeira, he signed with Sporting Portugal in 2001. That
same year, at the tender age of 16, Ronaldo turned heads with a impressing
performance against Manchester United, wowing even his opponents with his
footwork and deft skill. He made such an impression that a number of United
players asked their manager to try and sign the young player. It wasn't long
before the club paid Ronaldo's team more than £12 million for his services -
a record fee for a player of his age.
