Love

Love
Like a ray of the sunshine
When does it come from?
Who can tell me where I can find it?
I have no ideas what it is.

Like a fire in a light bulb.
Everyone can see you in a club.
You can choose to put on or put out your light.
Depending on how strong is your might.

Like an electrical connection in the house,
You can link up people with clicks of a mouse
Or should you be a loser,
Full of sighs without any power.

Now I know how I should go
To be a flame on Earth to glow.

Narcolepsy

Narcolepsy is a neurological condition most characterized by Excessive Daytime Sleepiness (EDS), in which a person falls asleep during the day at inappropriate times, such as at work or school. A narcoleptic will most probably experience disturbed nocturnal sleep, which is often confused with insomnia, and disorder of REM or rapid eye movement sleep. It is one of the dyssomnias. A narcoleptic may also fall asleep at random.


Narcolepsy is characterised by sudden and uncontrollable attacks of sleep at irregular and unexpected times. Attacks may occur in the middle of a conversation or during a meal and can last minutes or hours.

Hattie ordered Ella to give her her mother's necklace. She wanted the necklace because she thought it was beautiful. She also liked to own the necklace that was highly treasured by Ella. Ella was very sad about losing the necklace that was one of the memories for her mother who had just died. This shows that Hattie was greedy and inconsiderate.

Comprehension - Healthy weight loss

I believe that it is time for some plain common sense about losing weight.

Being overweight is serious and it is an increasing problem, especially for children. It is destroying their health and, in some cases, causing great unhappiness.

Weight loss can be so simple but you shouldn't expect it to happen quickly. Research has shown how unhealthy it is for your weight to go up and down as it often does when people follow crash diets.

It makes me angry to see the amount of time and money people waste on expensive weight loss treatments and programmes. What is even more worrying is that so many people are putting their health at risk with some of these fad crash diets, especially those that do not allow food from some of the important food groups.

There are only two simple rules to follow to lose weight or to maintain a healthy weight. They are to eat a balanced diet with less fat and sugar and to exercise more.

You don't have to starve to lose weight. If you eat fewer sweets things like lollies, cakes and biscuits, eat more fruit and vegetables, drink water instead of soft drinks and juices, and reduce facts by eating less fried food, you will lose weight and be healthier.

You don't need to pay a lot of money to join a gym or buy expensive equipment. Exercise should be part of your everyday life, like walking or cycling instead of going by car. Your need to be active instead of watching TV or sitting at a computer. Start some organized activity you'll keep up because you enjoy it.

It is important that you continue with your lifestyle changes, not just for a few days, weeks or months. Of course, sometimes you will eat the wrong food and that is fine as long as it only happens occasionally and you normally eat, drink and exercise wisely.

It really shouldn't be too complicated, difficult or expensive to lose weight or maintain a healthy weight. You just need to be patient and makes some changes to your life. If you do, you can be healthier and have a much better future without spending a lot of money and making a lot other people very rich.

The Road Not Taken by Robert Frost

Two roads diverged in a yellow wood,
And sorry I could not travel both
And be one traveller, long I stood
And looked down one as far as I could
To where it bent in the undergrowth;

Then took the other, as just as fair,
And having perhaps the better claim,
Because it was grassy and wanted wear;
Though as for that the passing there
Had worn them really about the same,

And both that morning equally lay
In leaves no step had trodden black.
Oh, I kept the first for another day!
Yet, knowing how way leads on to way,
I doubted if I should ever come back.

I shall be telling this with a sigh
Somewhere ages and ages hence:
Two roads diverged in a wood, and I -
I took the one less travelled by,
And that has made all the difference.
