Dear sir,
I’m sick of seeing so much rubbish on the roadside. Last week, I drove from Woy Woy to
Gosford and saw over 200 soft drink cans and 80 bottles on the roadside. The recycling and ‘Do the
Right Thing’ campaigns obviously have not worked. Maybe the police should set up “litter” cameras
as well as speed cameras to catch motorist who pollute our roads. In South Australia, you pay a
deposit of five cents on cans and bottles and this encourages people to return them rather than dump
them. New South Wales should introduce thus idea immediately.

FISH
Fishes come in an amazing variety of shapes and colours , but they all have three things in common. All fishes
live in water, have fins, and use gills to get oxygen from the water.
A female fish releases eggs in water. This process is called spawning. However, there
are also some fishes, like shark and dolphin, which give birth to live young.
Fish eggs range in size from a barely visible do to the size of a pea. Fish eggs may hatch
within several days of spawning or many weeks later, depending of the species and the
water temperature.
Fishes have the same five senses humans have: sight, hearing, touch, smell and taste.
They use their senses to look for food, avoid predators, find a partner to spawn with, and
find their way around their habitat. Fishes can also differentiate colour, just as people do.

saw the spindle, they immediately understood what had happened.
“Oh, No! She has pricked herself! The young princess has pricked herself and will now
sleep for one hundred years!” they cried.
The king ordered the princess to be taken to he best room in the palace and sent his
messengers to find the youngest fairy. When the youngest fairy came, she waved her magic wand
and everybody who accompanied the princess immediately fell asleep, too.
The years went by. Nobody remembered the princess and the curse anymore until, one
day, a young prince decided to climb up the tallest tree and see what the abandoned palace was
hiding. There he saw the princess and fell in love with her.
The prince went into the palace. He thought the sleeping princess was so beautiful that he kneeled
next to her bed to kiss her cheek. Magically, the “Sleeping Beauty” and the whole palace awoke.
