There are many people that visit the beaches in my country. Every day people leave a lot of rubbish in the beaches, like food, plastic bottles, cans, cigarettes... and these is very important problem because the pollution destroy many beautiful places. Is very dangerous for the animals, plants and people. If the pollution doesn't stop, won't survive the world. We must take our rubbish home and recycle it!

A ghost story

One day, when I finished my last class I caught my bike and me and Julia were going home by bike. When we were near the lake, we heard a strange noise. Then we stopped and turned around and we saw an old lady ghost began us. After that the old lady ghost told our names and we were very afraid. We ran home but the ghost was chasing us. I turned around again when the ghost disappeared in the lake.

That evening, my mother told me that an old lady had an accident near the lake and she died.

The next day, we went again near the lake, but we didn't see any ghost.
