Can't Decide On A Pet? - How About A Python

Kaoun who is seven years old decides to have a python as pet. This python will consider most of us lunch but not Kaoun. He had this snake since he was a few months old and whenever their parents send it to a zoo she always came back (they did that tree times). “I consider her as a sister” affirms Kaoun. This seven year old young boy plays with this pet, he lays on top of it, he lets the snake slide while he is on top of her. It’s amazing!!

Questions? •  What was the most interesting thing that you learned

from reading this article, and why? Explain. The most interesting thing that Iearned was that how a seven year old can have a python as pet? She can simply strangle him and have him as lunch. This was something that shocked me a lot.

•  Can you connect this event to something similar that has happened around you? (Has something like this happened to you, your family, your community, or your country?) Explain. My mother once went to visit a house in the jungle and saw that this family lived with this giant snake (python). She saw this huge animal sleeping in the living room and kids playing around him. It was disgusting!

Tornado Country

Tornados are a huge cone-shaped clouds of swirling air that arise with all the things near it. The most affected country is the United States. A meteorologist called Grady Dixon has studied that the U.S.A has had more than 50.000 tornadoes since 1950. He also found out that the people that leave at the east of “tornado ally” have more danger of experiencing a tornado because they are faster and last longer, this means that they go through more places where people lives. Meteorologists want to find a way of how to inform people when there will be a twister, but predicting when there will be a twister is still kind of difficult and people have less than 15 minutes to prepare before a tornado. Meteorologists found out that it would be a good idea when people see a tornado they make a video and post it on the web so people can be informed.
