Today every ten minutes one species of animal, insect, bird, fish or plant dies out forever mainly because of the world’s environmental problems. However, some animals have become extinct because of human actions. People hunt, overfish and change wetlands and forests to croplands and urban areas.
Today the most well-known kind of animal who is endangered is blue whale. Blue whales are the largest animals ever known to have lived on Earth. Their tongues alone can weigh as much as an elephant. Their hearts, as much as an automobile.Blue whales, die out because of lack of food.There was a time, when the blue whale was a major animal in every large water body of the world. But the arrival of the whale hunting era, diminished the whale count by such a massive number, that blue whales are still endangered today.
My Future Holidays
I love summer because it is the longest holidays and the weather is great for walking a lot, swimming, sunbathing and playing my favourite games!
In June I want to go to the summer camp. I will go there with my friends. We will live in dormitories and have meals in a large dining hall. I like doing all kinds of activities in the camp: singing, dancing, playing games and sports. I hope we will have competitions there.
In July I will go to my granny's dacha. She has a small wooden house with a vegetable garden not far from the river. I will help my granny to water plants and gather ripe tomatoes, cucumbers, carrots and berries. My dad and I will go fishing in the mornings and on hot days we will go swimming in the river.
Мои будущие каникулы
Я люблю лето, потому что это самые длинные каникулы, и погода отличная, чтобы много гулять, плавать, загорать и играть в мои любимые игры!
В июне я хочу поехать в летний лагерь. Я пойду туда с друзьями. Мы будем жить в спальных корпусах и питаться в большой столовой. Мне нравится заниматься в лагере всем: петь, танцевать, играть в игры и заниматься спортом. Я надеюсь, что у нас будут соревнования там.
В июле я поеду на дачу к бабушке. У нее небольшой деревянный домик с огородом недалеко от реки. Я буду бабушке поливать растения и собирать спелые помидоры, огурцы, морковь и ягоды. Мы с папой будем ловить рыбу по утрам, а в жаркие дни мы будем купаться в реке.
