Dear Liza,
I have received you letter asking me to meet you at
your house this Sunday to discuss the urgent matter
you have. I regret however to say that it will not be
possible for me to see you on Sunday as I already
have a previous appointment . I shall see you on
Monday next week at 5 p.m . Hoping the change of
date will be convenient to you
to me as a shock. You have my sincere and heartfelt
sympathy, my dear fellow, in your sorrow. I know
you will feel it deeply, for you always thought so
much of your mother and loved her so truly. I feel it
also as a personal loss to myself for your mother was
always very kind to me. I admired her a good and
noble woman. Her death must be a terrible grief to
your father too. Please assure him of my sincere
sympathy.
Words, I know, are poor comforters. “The heart
knows its own sorrow”, and in such sorrows we are
always alone. However, it is not mere words when I
say that I feel with you in your sorrow.

Your sincerely Your sincere friends,

Daisy Jack

porous rock (rock that soaks up water). The
water is heated by hot rock, and it begins to

Butterflies are insects undergo a complete
methamorphosis during their life cyrcle. They are
born as eggs that hatch into larvae and then grow
into pupas, before transforming into adults which are
butterflies.
Adult female butterflies lay many almost-
invisible eggs simulataneously on plants. These
plants, later, will become a source food for the
hatching eggs, called larvae. At the stage of larvae, the
hatching eggs do not look like butterflies. The larvae
of butterflies are called caterpillars. The only thing
caterpillars do is eat. The food they eat will be stored
and used when they become butterflies. During their
growth before turning into pupas called chrysalises,
they shed skin 4 to 5 times. When they are fully
grown, they stop eating ant turn into pupas, hanging
under branches, leaver or other hidden areas. Inside
the pupas, the cells of caterpillars turn into parts of
butterflies’ bodies. When the caterpillars come out
their pupas, they have already transformed into
butterflies. They have compound eyes and long
antennae, and legs and wings. At the final stage of
their life cycle, the jobs of butterflies are mating, and
laying eggs to become the next caterpillars.

A natural disaster is a terrible accident, e.g. a
great flood, a big fire or an earthquake. It usually
causes great suffering and loss of a large sum of
money. The casualties are injured or died. Some
people are homeless and need medical care.
Floods occur when the water of rivers, lakes, or
streams overflow their banks and pour onto the
surrounding land. Floods are caused by many
different things. Often heavy rainstorms that last for
a brief can cause a flood. But not all heavy storms are
followed by flooding. If the surrounding land is flat
and can absorb the water, no flooding will occur. If,
however, the land is hard and rocky, heavy rain
cannot be absorbed. Where the banks are low, a river
may overflow and flood adjacent lowland.
In many part of the world flood are caused by
tropical storms called hurricanes or typhoons. They
bring destructive winds of high speed, torrents of
rain, and flooding. When a flood occurs, the
destruction to surrounding land can be severe. Whole
villages and towns are sometimes swept away by
water pouring swiftly over the land. Railroad track
blocked and uprooted from their beds. Highways are
washed away.
When a building caught fire, the firemen
pitched in to help battle the blaze. Before the pumps
were invented, people formed bucket brigades to
fight fires. Standing side by side, they formed a
human chain from the fire to nearby well or river.
They passed buckets of water from to hand to be
poured on the flames.
The damage of the fire did depend a great deal
on where it happened. In the country or a small
village, only a single house might burn down. But in
crowded cities, fire often destroyed whole blocks and
neighborhoods before being controlled.

Human body is made up of countless millions
of cells. Food is needed to built up new cells and
replace the worn out cells. However, the food that we
take must be changed into substances that can be
carried in the blood to the places where they are
needed. This process is called digestion.
The first digestive process takes place in the
mouth. The food we eat is broken up into small
pieces by the action of teeth, mixed with saliva, a
juice secreted by glands in the mouth. Saliva contains
digestive juice which moisten the food, so it can be
swallowed easily.
From the mouth, food passes through the
esophagus (the food passage) into the stomach. Here,
the food is mixed with the juices secreted by the cells
in the stomach for several hours. Then the food
enters the small intestine. All the time the muscular
walls of the intestine are squeezing, mixing and
moving the food onwards.
In a few hours, the food changes into acids.
These are soon absorbed by the villi (microscopic
branch projections from the intestine walls) and
passed into the bloodstream.

A. The digestive system
B. The digestive juice
