1) Gold, a precious metal, is praised for two important characteristics. First of all, gold has a
lustrous beauty that is resistant to corrosion. Therefore, it suitable for jewelry, coins, and
ornamental purposes. Gold never needs to be polished and will remain beautiful forever.
For example, a Macedonian coin remains as untarnished today as the day it was it was
minted twenty- three centuries ago. Another important characteristic of gold is its
usefulness to industry and science. For many years, it has been used in hundreds of
industrial applications. The most recent use of gold is in astronauts’ suits. Astronauts
wear gold-plated heat shields for protection outside the spaceship. In conclusion, gold is
treasured not only for its beauty, but also for its utility.
2) Synonyms, words that have the same basic meaning, do not always have the same
emotional meaning. For example, the words “stingy” and “frugal” both mean “careful
with money”. However, to call a person stingy is an insult, while the word frugal has a
much more positive connotation. Similarly, a person wants to be slender but not skinny,
and aggressive, but not pushy. Therefore, you should be careful in choosing words
because many so-called synonyms are not really synonymous at all
3) Hurricanes, which are also called cyclones, exert tremendous power. These violent
storms are often a hundred miles in diameter, and their winds can reach velocities of
seventy-five miles per hour or more. Furthermore, the strong winds and heavy rainfall
that accompany them can completely destroy a small town in a couple of hours. The
energy that is released by a hurricane in one day exceeds the total energy consumed by
humankind throughout the world in one year

1) I have a cute cat. He's a Persian breed cat. He has full thick white fur, but he has a little
black fur on his head. He loved to eat, his favorite food is wet food and he doesn't likes
dry food so much maybe because of the dry food texture's a little hard. He also likes to
sleep, he could sleep all day and wake up in the early morning, his sleep hours per day is
about 16 hours. My cat is unique, unlike the other cats, my cat rarely feels lust even
though it is nearly a year old, he wouldn't even dare go near a female cat. I love him so
much that I've raised him since he was a kitten. Now he's an adult cat but his habits are
just like when he's a kitten. He has a habit of massaging human body when he wants to
sleep. He also likes to play outside, I didn't cage him because he would feel stressed if he
caged. How to take care of him is very easy, first, never lock him in the cage, second,
never be late to feed him because he will be very fussy and will not stop meowing if he is
hungry, Third, don't forget to bathe him because his fur is white so it will get dirty easily,
and also don't wash him carelessly, he must be bathed using special soap, if not, his fur
will fall. My Persian cat is like a cat in general, likes to eat, likes to sleep, likes to play,
but he has a little uniqueness because he is a purebred cat. He is a spoiled cat and taking
care of her is not too difficult and that's why I love him so much I will be very sad if I
lose him
