Cactus

A cactus (plural: cacti) is any member of the plant family Cactaceae, native to the Americas.
They are often used as ornamental plants, but some are also crop plants. Cacti are grown for

Cacti are part of the plant order Caryophyllales, which also include members like beets,
gypsophila, spinach, amaranth, tumbleweeds, carnations, rhubarb, buckwheat, plumbago,
bougainvillea, chickweed and knotgrass.

Cacti are unusual and distinctive plants, which are adapted to extremely arid and hot
environments, showing a wide range of anatomical and physiological features which conserve
water. Their stems have adapted to become photosynthetic and succulent, while the leaves have
become the spines for which cacti are well known.

Cacti come in a wide range of shapes and sizes. The tallest is Pachycereus pringlei, with a
maximum recorded height of 19.2 m, and the smallest is Blossfeldia liliputiana, only about 1 cm
in diameter at maturity. Cactus flowers are large, and like the spines and branches arise from
areoles. Many cactus species are night blooming, as they are pollinated by nocturnal insects or

The Temple of Borobudur

 Borobudur is a massive Buddhist monument in central Java, Indonesia, northwest of
Yogyakarta. The temple is built with about 2,000,000 cubic feet of gray volcanic stone.
Borobudur encloses a small hill and is shaped like a stepped pyramid with three major levels—a
square base, a middle level of five square terraces, and an upper level of three circular terraces.
Borobudur was constructed between about 778 and 850 CE under the Shailendra dynasty.
The style of Borobudur was influenced by Indian Gupta art. It was buried under volcanic ash
from about 1000 CE and overgrown with vegetation until discovered by the English lieutenant
governor Thomas Stamford Raffles in 1814. A team of Dutch archaeologists restored the site in
1907–11. A second restoration was completed by 1983.
Each of the monument’s three main levels represents a stage on the way to the Buddhist ideal of
enlightenment. Symbolizing this spiritual journey, a pilgrim begins at the eastern stairway and
walks clockwise around each of the monument’s nine levels before reaching the top, a distance
of more than 3 miles. During the Waicak ceremony, which occurs once a year during a full
moon, thousands of saffron-robed Buddhist monks walk in solemn procession to Borobudur to
commemorate the Buddha’s birth, death, and enlightenment.
The monument was designated a UNESCO World Heritage site in 1991. Borobudur is the
most visited touristic site of Indonesia.

Mount Bromo

Good morning, students. I believe all of you have been on a trip before. Now, I will tell
you what I did on my holiday. Last month we had a long holiday, so my family and I went to
Mount Bromo. Have you ever been there? It’s so beautiful and we had an unforgettable
experience.
We went there by car. We reached Cemoro Lawang in the evening. Then, we rested in an
inn. We decided to see the sun rise the next morning. Seeing the sunrise from the peak of a
mountain is an amazing event. It was really wonderful.
Early the next morning, we rode horses to climb up the mountain. The weather was very
cold, and the fog was very thick too. We crossed a very vast black sandy desert. The desert is
about ten kilometers wide. It was amazing.
After riding a long distance, we reached the peak. It was about 05:00 a.m. We stopped
there and saw the sun rise. It was really spectacular. It was a wonderful sigh! The sunrise over
the mountain was fantastic! Then, we had breakfast in the open air. We prepared ourselves for
our next trip. There were so many other things we wanted to see.

Once, a farmer and his wife had a flock of sheep. Even after all their efforts, a wolf ate up all
the sheep and only one sheep was left. Once, the couple sat talking about selling the remaining
sheep. The sheep heard them and thought, “I’d rather live freely than be killed by a butcher.” So
the sheep left the farm at night with the guard dog.
By chance, the wolf saw them and thought to get the sheep for dinner. But he knew that he
could not harm the sheep in the presence of the dog. So he said to the sheep, “hey sheep! Come
here and return the coat that I lent you last week.”
The dog understood what the wolf wanted. He saw a trap laid by the farmer near a tree. So he
said, “we will believe you, if you touch the holy chain hanging near the tree.”as soon as the wolf
went near the tree, his feet got caught in the trap.
In the morning, the farmer was happy that the wolf had been caught. So the sheep and the
guard dog were needed again. Hence they went back with him.
