Hi Paula,
Im sitting in front of my mirror and I dont like what I see! My hairstyle is ugly
and I hate my clothes. I need a new fashion style.
Please look at the two photos in the attachment. In the first photo, theres a
blonde girl. I think she looks great! Of course, my hair is shorter and darker than
hers, but I like her hairstyle. What do you think of the way she looks? In the
second picture, the Japanese girl is wearing very colourful clothes and
accessories: a pink sweater, a purple skirt, yellow and pink socks, a yellow hat
and a light blue scarf. Do you think she looks pretty?
I want to find the best style for me. You often read fashion magazines and you
always wear amazing clothes. So please tell me: which fashion style is good for
me?
Love,
Jessie

Dolphins to the Rescue
In 2002, dolphins saved a fisherman, Grant Dickson, from a group of hungry sharks when Dicksons
fishing boat sank in a storm off the coast of Australia. Thirty-six-year-old Dickson told the
newspapers about his terrible experience.
There were two other fishermen on the boat with Dickson but they died at sea. Dickson swam to a
small boat after his boat sank. The small boat was turned over, but Dickson held on to it. It wasnt
easy because Dickson was hurt and bleeding badly. Suddenly, sharks came and swam around him.
One shark moved closer and closer to him. He was terribly frightened. Luckily, right then, some
dolphins appeared and swam around Dickson. Dickson understood the dolphins wanted to help
him, and they did. The dolphins chased away the sharks and saved Dicksons life.
After almost two days of holding onto the small boat, a ship passed by and rescued Dickson.

Plastic at Sea
Sea animals and birds are in danger. Hunting and global warming is partly responsible for this, but
the main reason is pollution. The wind blows plastic bags, plastic
bottles and balloons into the sea. Sea animals and birds eat the plastic
because they think it is food. If they eat too much plastic, it can kill
them.
There are millions of plastic bags in the seas and oceans around the
world. The plastic looks like jellyfish, the favourite food of many sea
animals. Balloons are a problem, too. Birds see their bright colours and
mistake them for food. Almost every sea bird in the world has got some
plastic rubbish inside its stomach. Sharp pieces of plastic sometimes cut
the birds small stomachs. Toxic substances in the plastic can poison the
birds and kill them.
About 1,000,000 sea birds and 100,000 other sea animals die every year
because of plastic pollution. So, make sure you throw all your plastic
rubbish into a bin!
