Dear Aunty,
I have an eighteen-month-old male cat. He is a stray ( the lost one ) we allow into the house
but he loves the outdoors. There is another big cat in the neighborhood who is rather fierce.
My problem is after a fight with the big cat, my cat returns home with bleeding scars.
Sometimes I‘d wake up in the middle of the night to rescue him from a fight. Please tell me
how to end this problem. I don’t want to give him away.
Julia
Sincerely.
Tim Burton

Invitation ( school ) :
I have always loved my aunt’s house because it made me feel safe and warm. There was a smell
of coffee in the air at all times. It seemed like all my aunt did was make coffee. If I smell coffee, I
instantly think of my aunt’s house.
My aunt’s house was always filled with people. I can remember sitting in a chair watching her do
hair. She would take a hot comb and straighten her clients’ hair. The smell of burning hair
would linger in the house for days.
Taj Mahal is regarded as one of the eight wonders of the world. It was built by a Muslim
Emperor Shah Jahan in the memory of his dear wife at Agra.Taj Mahal is a Mausoleum that
houses the grave of queen Mumtaz Mahal. The mausoleum is a part of a vast complex
comprising of a main gateway, an elaborate garden, a mosque (to the left), a guest house (to the
right), and several other palatial buildings. The Taj is at the farthest end of this complex, with the
river Jamuna behind it.
The Taj stands on a raised, square platform (186 x 186 feet) with its four corners
truncated, forming an unequal octagon. The architectural design uses the interlocking arabesque
concept, in which each element stands on its own and perfectly integrates with the main
structure. It uses the principles of self-replicating geometry and a symmetry of architectural
elements.
Its central dome is fifty-eight feet in diameter and rises to a height of 213 feet. It is
flanked by four subsidiary domed chambers. The four graceful, slender minarets are 162.5 feet
each. The central domed chamber and four adjoining chambers include many walls and panels
of Islamic decoration.
Taj Mahal is built entirely of white marble. Its stunning architectural beauty is beyond
adequate description, particularly at dawn and sunset. The Taj seems to glow in the light of the
full moon. On a foggy morning, the visitors experience the Taj as if suspended when viewed from
across the Jamuna river.

Orchids grow in all but the very coldest parts of the world. They are most numerous in warm,
tropical areas. Unlike most other plants, orchids can grow in a variety of places—on trees, on the
ground, on rocks, and even completely under the ground. Orchids that grow on trees and rocks are not
rooted in soil. Instead, their spongy roots dangle in the air or cling to the tree or rock. They absorb
moisture and nutrients from rainwater and rotting plant matter.
Orchid plants vary in height from less than an inch (2.5 centimeters) to more than 15 feet (4.6
meters). The flowers can grow singly or in clusters. They can be as small as 1/10 inch (2.5 millimeters)
or as large as 15 inches (38 centimeters) across. Orchid flowers can be almost any color, and some are
spotted or streaked. Many have a strong fragrance, but some have no fragrance at all.
Most orchid flowers have three petals and three leaf like structures called sepals. The sepals are
the outer layer of the flower that covers the closed flower bud. Once the flower opens, the sepals often
take on the color of the petals. The petals may be long and thin, rounded, or fringed. The lowest petal
on the face of the flower is called the lip. It often has a different shape or color from the rest of the
flower. The lip is important in attracting insects, which carry pollen from one flower to another. Some
lips even look like insects themselves.
In the wild, orchids grow from tiny seeds that are about the size of a particle of dust. Orchid
flowers produce millions of seeds in pods, but only a small portion of the seeds become plants. They
grow into plants only with the help of a special fungus. The fungus nourishes the orchid seed and helps
it sprout. It is difficult for orchid growers to raise plants from seeds because it takes many years for the
plants to mature. For this reason, they often grow new plants by cutting off and replanting part of a
mature plant.
