There are two types of pandas. They are the popular Giant Pandas
and the Red Pandas which we rarely hear of.
The Red Panda lives in the cold mountains of the Himalayas. This mammal has

thick reddish brown fur and a bushy tail.


Unlike the Red Panda, the Giant Panda is a larger bear with black
and white fur. It also lives in the cold mountains but can only be found in
China. This shy mammal lives in bamboo forests. It loves eating these
bamboo plants. The female Giant Panda gives birth to one or two tiny
white cubs. They are born in caves or holes. They look more like mice.
The Giant Panda has sharp claws to climb trees. It climbs high to
hide among the branches to escape from enemies.
The Government of China is taking care of these animals. They are
falling in numbers because the bamboo plants are being cut down by
man.

The recorder was one of the most popular musical instruments in
Europe from the 14th to the 18th century. By 1750, it became less popular
because only few people were writing musical notes for the recorder.
Recorders come in five different sizes and names. They are bass,
tenor, treble and descant. The smallest recorder is sopranino. It is only
22 centimetres long. The smaller the recorder, the higher the tone
produced.
In Malaysia, teachers use this musical instrument to teach their
pupils basic music skills. It is one way of making pupils learn, love and
enjoy music.
It is very easy to learn to play this instrument. It is also inexpensive
and can be carried around easily. It is blown like a whistle with eight
holes for the fingers. The fingers are used to open or close the holes of
the recorder to produce musical sounds.

(Adapted: The Musical Instrument, RIC Publication Australia)

Dear Amira,
How are you? This is my third day here. The city seems to be very
busy with heavy traffic and people moving here and there. The streets
are never empty and some people regard Kuala Lumpur as the city of
life because youngsters find that there is a lot of entertainment around.
Some of them even enjoy going around riding there motorcycles noisily
late at night.
Truly speaking, I dont quite like the environment here. Unlike
Bandar Hilir, the city is rather noisy. I thought of staying here longer but
due to the uncomfortable situation. I will return to Melaka in a weeks
time. I have already asked my uncle to buy me a bus ticket home.
By the way, how are you doing? I really miss the fun with you and
our friends. Most people here mind their own business and that
makes my life even more boring. I cant wait to go home to be with my
family.
I have to stop writing now as my uncle is taking me to the Eye on
Malaysia at Taman Titiwangsa. We are going in his new car. Im looking
forward to having lunch at the revolving restaurant at KL Tower. When I
see you, Ill tell you about my experience here and my first ride on the
monorail.
Please send my regards to all our friends.
Yours sincerely,
Mei Lin
