Opinion Text "The rats save humans lives"

Opinion "The rats save humans life"

The APOPO project is a new creative project that saves thousands of lives. Scientific discover that rats has an excellent smell and that benefit can be use in order to help humans lives because rats has the quality to search mines in a big land-mine. That is possible because the mines emit a vapour that can be smelled by the rats.

Well, I think it is very newfangled and useful because there were many Africans that walked throught the Sabana and they didnt know where they were steping.
Tragically, in Africa dies millions of person steping on a mine and know, with the helps of the rats, that figure has decreased severely.

In conclusion, I am very happy knowing that there are person dedicated in saves the of others with the intelligents rats that does almost all the work.

Students are sitting on the ground and there are different levels. They have no rooms however. Local people don't want a school because they think children waste their time having fun when they have to help their fathers in the field or look after the cattle.
Besides they are the best students he has found in three years on his job and it is worth providing them with a room, what can he do? He knows that his recommendation is going to be refused.

My english class



The past week we had English class, it was fun because we learned about English history, by the use of the projector and computer watching videos. Also we found out how to create a blogger account. I think it could be difficult but I realize that it was easy and fast. I had lots of fun in class watching the videos because I think it is very interesting learning how to use technology, but because of the school, we could use it.


I’m counting the days for the next English class!


Thank you, miss Troncoso.
