Meet my little pet dog named Rocky. He is a German Shepherd and has been part of my
family for the last 3 years. He is friendly and playful. Anyway, outsiders often consider him
dangerous. This is due to the wavy coat texture and grey color of his body. He is so alert at every
moment and protects our home at all times.
Everyone in my family likes Rocky. We all treat him like a family member. I love to take
Rocky outside for some fresh air and sunshine. Rocky’s hair is super fluffy. That’s what I like
most. I like to wash it and play with it. Rocky will even walk right in the shower with me! He also
loves the blow-dryer and try to bite it at the warm air.
My family cannot even imagine life without him, especially me. I am the youngest child in
my family. My brothers are very busy with their activities, I often stay alone at home but I never
feel lonely. Rocky is always with me. We like having fun together. To me, he is my everything.

Roland Gainer is a-22-year-old student. One day he rode an Uber taxi. At that time he
wanted to go to a location to meet his friends. However, during the trip, Roland learned something
about his taxi driver, Kenneth Broskey (69).
Kenneth had a cancer in several parts of his body. His doctors told him that he had only 10 weeks
to live. Roland was even more touched when Kenneth told him the reason why he must continue
working. Kenneth had to afford his medical check-up fee. He also had to raise his daughter and
grandchildren.
“I want to give my daughter and son enough money. When I die, I don’t want they lose the house.”
Kenneth told Ronald.
Soon Ronald decided to create a fundraiser called “Go Fun Me” for Kenneth. Within five days,
Ronald managed to collect 100,000 US dollars. The money was enough for Kenneth to pay off
the house fees. Until now, Ronald admitted that he still meets Kenneth occasionally. He felt
inspired by Kenneth’s fighting spirit.

Cyber stalking is a form of harassment. It involves the use of the Internet and
digital technology to frighten and intimidate someone. Stalkers tend to continually
invade the victim’s privacy. Cyber stalking is one of the most dangerous forms of
cybercrimes. It is because the stalker shows advanced knowledge of their victim’s life
and movements.
There are three types of cyber stalking: email stalking, Internet stalking, and
computer stalking. Email stalking is sending threatening emails and spam. Internet
stalking is tracking the target’s movements on online platforms and spreading
rumours to slander the victims. Computer stalking is hacking the target’s computer,
taking control of it, and stealing personal information or documents from it.
There are some practical tips to overcome cyber stalking. The victims must
change their daily routine and habit until the problem goes away. They have to collect
evidence of stalking for example: phone calls, messages, and emails. After that, the
collected evidence can be used as the attachment to report the stalking to the police.
Lastly, tell other people such as family and friends about the stalker.

Read the following text.

Once a fox was roaming around in the dark. Unfortunately, he fell into a well. He tried his
best to come out but all in vain. So, he had no other alternatives. So, he had to remain there
until the next morning. The next day, a goat came that way. She peeped into the well and saw
the fox there. The goat asked, “What are you doing there, Mr. Fox?”
The sly fox replied, “I came here to drink water. It is the best I have ever tasted. Come and
see for yourself.” Without thinking even for a while, the goat jumped into the well, quenched her
thirst and looked for a way to get out. But just like the fox, she also found herself helpless to
come out.
Then the fox said, “I have an idea. You stand on your hind legs. I’ll climb on your head
and get out. Then I will help you come out too.” The goat was innocent enough to understand
the shrewdness of the fox. She did as the fox said and helped hi get out of the well.
While walking away, the fox said, “If you had been intelligent enough, you would never
have got in without seeing how to get out.”

Leopard is a wild cat of Africa and Asia. They are sometimes called panthers. The
scientific name of the leopard is Panthera Pardus. They are found in forests, deserts,
grasslands, mountains, and rocky places. They are skilled climbers and good swimmers.

An average leopard weighs between 50 and 90 kilograms. It is about 2 meters long, not
including the long tail. Some leopards grow much larger. Most leopards have yellow fur on
the back and white fur underneath. Dark spots cover much of the body. The size and spacing
of the spots are different in different types of leopards.

Leopards are fierce predators that hunt mainly at night. Their prey includes antelope,
deer, dogs, and baboons. Leopards also eat cattle and may attack humans. Sometimes they
drag their prey high into a tree to protect it from other animals.

Cheetah is the fastest land animal on Earth. They live in the wild parts of Africa. Most
cheetahs live in grasslands and dry, open areas.

Small black spots cover most of the cheetah’s sandy yellow fur. The belly is white, and
the tail is marked with dark rings. Black lines run from the eyes to the corners of the mouth.
Cheetah measures about 2 meters long, from the head to the tip of the tail. It is a slender
mammal that weighs about 34 to 54 kilograms. Its body is built for speed. Long legs allow
the cheetah to take big strides. Hard paws and exposed claws help it to grip the ground.

Cheetahs hunt small animals during the day. After creeping up on an animal, they sprint
at it from a few hundred feet away. They can keep up the chase for only a short time before
tiring.
