Emmanuel Martinez
Av. Luis Bivar
Lisbon
Portugal
Dear Emmanuel,
I want to thank you for your kind letter and your attempt to understand my Portuguese.
I am very eager to meet you and your family when I come to Lisbon in September.
I thought it would be a good idea to tell you a little about myself so we are not
complete strangers when I get to Lisbon. I am 16 years old and am one year away
from graduating high school. I am planning on continuing my education after that at
Hometown College and majoring in Finance so that I work in the banking field. I have
been told that your father is a bank manager.
I have one older sister who is married with a child. I have an older brother who is
graduating from Boston College this spring and plans to also work in the financial
field. He has no children yet, but is soon to be married after graduation.
What I know about Lisbon I should tell you I learned from Google and History class. I
have read that it is a very lovely city. Does it snow much there?
I look forward to your next letter.
Sincerely
Mary Ashton

There are about 5,000 different species of ladybugs in the world. These much
loved critters are also known as lady beetles or ladybird beetles. They come in many
different colors and patterns, but the most familiar in North America is the seven-
spotted ladybug, with its shiny, red-and-black body.
The name "ladybug" was created by European farmers who prayed to the
Virgin Mary when pests began eating their crops. After ladybugs came and wiped out
the invading insects, the farmers named them "beetle of Our Lady." This eventually
was shortened to "lady beetle" and "ladybug."
In many cultures, ladybugs are considered good luck. Most people like them
because they are pretty, graceful, and harmless to humans. But farmers love them
because they eat aphids and other plant-eating pests. One ladybug can eat up to 5,000
insects in its lifetime!
Most ladybugs have oval, dome-shaped bodies with six short legs. Depending
on the species, they can have spots, stripes, or no markings at all. Seven-spotted
ladybugs are red or orange with three spots on each side and one in the middle. They
have a black head with white patches on either side.
Ladybugs are colorful for a reason. Their markings tell predators: "Eat
something else! I taste terrible." When threatened, the bugs will secrete an oily, foul-
tasting fluid from joints in their legs. They may also play dead. Birds are ladybugs'
main predators, but they also fall victim to frogs, wasps, spiders, and dragonflies.
Ladybugs are happy in many different habitats, including grasslands, forests,
cities, suburbs, and along rivers. Seven-spotted ladybugs are native to Europe but were
brought to North America in the mid-1900s to control aphid populations.
Ladybugs are most active from spring until fall. When the weather turns cold,
they look for a warm, secluded place to hibernate, such as in rotting logs, under rocks,
or even inside houses. These hibernating colonies can contain thousands of ladybugs.

D. Birds
Kunci jawaban : A
Pembahasan : kata-kata “they eat aphids“ menunjukkan bahwa Aphids adalah makanan

Charging an laptop battery is as easy as plugging the laptop into an electrical outlet
and leaving the machine off for a span of time. If the computer and battery are
operating properly, the battery will charge during this process. However, if the laptop
is in use and the battery requires a charge, there are a few steps to take to decrease the
power demand from using the laptop and increase the power available to the battery
charging mechanism. The laptop’s “Power Plan” may be changed or customized with
just a few simple steps.
1 Right-click on the Power icon in the system tray at the bottom right of the Windows
desktop. The Power icon looks like a D-cell battery and may appear to have a power
cord connector in front, if the laptop is currently plugged into AC current.
2 Select “Power Options” from the context menu. The Power Options settings page
will appear. Three power plans are provided by default: Balanced, Power Saver and
High Performance.
3 Click the radio button in front of the “Power Saver” option to increase power to the
battery charger while the laptop is in use.
4 Close the Power Options window by clicking the “X” in the top right corner. The
selection will save on exit. By Tammy Clevenger
