Louise Arner Boyd by Ziyad Saber

LOUISE ARNER BOYD
          WOMAN EXPLORER


Louise ARNER BOYD was an American explorer of Greenland and the Arctic who was born in 1887 in the State of California.
She wrote extensively of her explorations and she was also the first woman to fly over the North pole privately with a DC-4 plane.
Since she came from a wealthy family she didn't have problems to finance her trips.
In 1918 she worked as a nurse during the Influenza Epidemic in Egypt and Europe.
After her parents' dead in 1919 and 1920 her interest on the Arctic began and she travelled again to Europe. Soon later she went on a trip to the Arctic.
As soon as she returned from the Arctic she started another trip where she had to look for a man called Umberto Nobile and another explorer that went before Boyd, Amunsden, to find Nobile. Unfortunately Amunsden was never found but, nevertheless, she was presented with a medal by the King of Norway.
In 1934 she was elected as Delegate in the International Geographic Center in Warsaw, Poland.
With the outbreak of WWII her knoweldge of the Arctic and Greenland zone became of strategic significance, so eventhough they didnt let her publish a book, she worked on secret assignments for the US government.
In 1949 she was awarded with the Department of Army Certificate Appreciaton.
Louise had a life full of adventures.
She died in 1972, but she will never be forgotten. Her soul will always be with us on her books and quotes.

Storm Chasing by Ziyad Saber

Storm Chasing. 
Nowadays a lot of people go storm-chasing. 
Storm chasing is an activity that consists of seeing storms. 
This activity makes the participants go to unusual sites, and with unusual sites I mean not turístico places. 
The advantage of this fact is that it allows people who don’t like to have planned holidays to have an exciting time. 
It is also an advantage to witness natural disasters without caring about our safety. 
The disadvantage of going to unusual places is that it’s not usually comfortable, wether because pf going to inaccesible rocky places nor having the personal equipement required. 
For many people the principal disadvantage is that it's not a calm activity. 
So, for people who are in love with nature, you should do this activity but for those who like a planned accomodation, with any type of worries you should better do something else.

Hi teacher,
Guess what ? I've just had an awesome mark at the specific SAT and I've got a full scholarship for the Massachusetts Institute of Technology.
I only wanted to thank you for these entertaining and amazing 2 years because you helped me to improve my english and it wouldn't have been possible without your help.
It was very hard for me to study scientific subjects in a foreign language even though I have achieved my goal now. But for this achievement I had to take myself away from a lot of chilling moments like going out with my friends and parties principally.
I'll send you some pictures when I'll arrive there and I hope that everything is going at its finest from your side.
Sincerely,
Ziyad.

THE PARADISE ON EARTH


I choose this picture because I like very much the beach . Probably it's in the Caribe or Bahamas . It's the same , because the clean water and the white sand are the same in both places.

In this place you can spend a good time , with your family , with your friends or with your couple if you want a romantic travel.

If you're stressed in your city , and you have a lot of problems in the job and the routine can be annoying , I can suggest you to go to places like this where you can forget all your troubles and give time to yourself.

The relax is also very important in our life don't forget it.

Osa Johnson (and her husband Martin)



Osa Johnson(and her husband Martin)

Osa Johnson was born in 1894 in Kansas and died after 56 year in New York. She was an american explorer , filmmaker and writer . She went through the African continent with her husband Martin Johnson.
Osa visited a lot of countries in Africa and Asia too with his husband Martin. They made a lot of films about these exotic lands. The couple spent most time of their life studying the wildlife in these faraway lands , most of americans didn’t know anything about these countries so both Osa and Martin offered  many Americans their first understanding of these distant lands. Wonders of the Congo, Jungles Calling , African Paradise are one of the best documentaries made by this couple. They also wrote some books like the best-seller named « I married Adventure ». They have also a museum which is located in Osa’s hometown  , founded in 1961 to to preserve the Johnsons' achievements and to improve the next  research in their fields of study. The museum started with a collection of the Johnsons' films, pictures, notes, articles, books, and personal belongings donated by Osa's mother.
I think they made improvements in the exploration field .And also worked a lot in their books and films. We can say that they are one of the best explorers in the twentieth century.

Subject: Great news!

Hi Cristina,

How are you? Miss you so much! So, as I tell in the subject I have great news: I was saving money for a long time so now I can buy a new beautiful laptop!

It’s such a wonderful chance, cause this brand of laptop has a lot of functions. First of all, it has a very good front camera. It is tactile; so you can choose between the options with your fingers. It has a powerful speaker, and a very good music and video players. Apart from these, it has loads of other applications.

The problem now is that I don’t know if I should buy it here or in Spain; cause Moroccan computers have a very bad reputation, because sometimes they are not original. Tell me your opinion.

When I buy it, I send you a photo of it! I am so excited!

Loads of love,


Lina

UNUSUAL TOURIST SITE

When people travel to new places, they can have positives or negative thoughts of the places so there will advantages and disadvantages.

I going to talk about the advantages of visiting an unusual site. When people visit new sites, they meet many new places, that they never see and this places draw our attention for their different ideas, of our. They can meet new scenery, museums, landmarks,... ; they can enjoy the new foods and learn new things of their cultur, religion,... .

If there are disadvantages in visiting a new unusual site, would be because, when the people visit a new place that they never knew before and never they seen before, if they don't have a tourist guide or anyone there to help them, this people can be lost or just don't enjoy the new place.

Hi Oumy.

Unusual Tourist Site by Diae Zrihni


By visiting an unusual tourist site you are going to experience new things that you never did or saw before.

Starting with the advantages, it is a good way to do different and unusual 
activities because in a typical tourist site usually all the activities are the 
same so it can be very boring for some people. Also, there is an advantage 
very important is that you can pay less than  a typical tourist site.

But everything has its disadvantages that is why i think the people who go 
in this kind of activities like or don't care about the danger they are 
facing. 


Unusual tourist site

Visiting an unusual tourist site can be all advantages if you know well the site that you are visiting. Because some sites often cheat people.
If you geat cheated , it is a disadvantage because ibviously you lose money.
And the worsl thing is that you feel cheated.

Nevertheless, if you know the site , the advantages are that they give you ideas and different options that you can choose, keep in mind your situation. But you cand find disadvantages, if the site sells you false information about the trip.

Another advantage of sites it is that its cheap than buying it from the company.

SUBJECT: Amazing news!

Hi Hamid,
Guess what? I have saved up enough money to buy that car I've always dreamed about.
I'm so happy and proud of my choice. It's a very car, not to big but not too small, the perfect size for me. The car is very fast and I love that. It's really comfortable, easy to drive and has a large trunk, so we will make many trips.
The only problem is which colour to choose, black or white? I like both.

I'll call you when I come back to Tangier.
Tell me what do you think about all these.
XXX,

Rita

Unusual Tourist sites by Rita Benhida

The advantage of visiting an unusual tourist site is that you never did this before. All are new experiences and feelings you never imagined before. And doing all the time the same things makes you feel bored, it is important to change sometimes. The problem with visiting an unusual tourist site is that you can have very bad experiences or don't like the activities. Maybe the best thing to do is to go to a typical tourist site, but as everithing if you don't try you don't know if you like it or not.


If you want to do new things and have new experiences, think before choosing that unusual tourist site.
