Dear Principal,
I have three things that will help make the school better. Firstly, I think that we should have more science classes. Secondly, I think that the primary cafeteria’s food should be better. Finally, I think the school should lower tuition fee. Here are a few reasons that you should do this, and how it will help the school expand and help the students learn.
Firstly, I think the school should have more science classes. Science is a good thing, and the people fighting the coronavirus need science to succeed, since they need drugs, vaccines, protection “space suits” and some other equipment. That equipment is all manufactured using the power of science. Science is also a major subject that is covered in a lot of tests. A lot of students also like science, so I think that two science classes a week is not enough.
Secondly, I think that the primary school’s cafeteria food should be improved. Experts say that better food makes learning easier and more efficient. Some students eat meager amounts of food in lunch and can feel their belly growling when they are going to PE class. The students will be much happier if the cafeteria food gets better. If the students are happier and learning is more efficient for them, the teachers will need less time to teach the students, therefore raising morale. The cafeteria food should really be improved, to make the students healthier and make education easier.
All the changes will cost money, but this change will generate money to compensate for the money used on the other two projects. The school should lower tuition fees. This may seem counterintuitive, but if the fee is lower, more students will come, as their parents will think that it is worth it. Students will flock towards the school so expanding or just getting more money will be easy. Lowering the fee will help the school expand and get more students, therefore getting more money.
I think that these changes will help the school a lot, so we should add more science classes, improve the cafeteria food, and lower the tuition fee quickly! Doing these things will help students on their tests and make their future better, boost teacher morale, and give more money to the school. This will really help the school!
Sincerely, Darwin

Meow! A black cat touched John at the door of the office building. John ignored it, and started to walk back home. On the way, he suddenly noticed a path that was never here before. John decided to ignore it, as it was getting dark. Suddenly, he heard the sound of screaming towards the other end of the path…
John went on the path. He walked for a long time. It felt like a million years before he saw something. The sky was dark and there was mist hiding what was inside. Then, another scream came from inside the mist! John felt compelled to investigate. He went inside the mist, and a huge, abandoned castle loomed before him…
“Thanks God I took a flashlight” ,John mumbled. He turned on the flashlight, and a ray of light shot out. John shone the light onto the castle and found out that it was decomposing. Some of the stone bricks had called out, and there was a large section missing in the upper parts. Green moss and vines were growing on the walls, and there were some plants growing in the missing section. The castle looked sad and seemed to be saying: Goooo awwayyy! Despite of these warnings, John still went inside the castle.
It was very gloomy inside, with cobwebs everywhere. The cobwebs were like drapes, hiding whatever was behind it. There looked like there were three route: One was a long corridor, and seemed to lead into darkness. The second one was a door, once grand, that now is moldy and broken. The third one was a corridor that went to a door. Just when John finished thinking about where he would go, the door creaked shut, and it was locked…
John suddenly felt that coming here wasn’t the wisest idea. The entire castle had a gloomy feel. It was already 9pm, and the flashlight would run out of charge in about 30 minutes. Then, suddenly John remembered the missing section on the top of the castle. There was dense foliage down there. He could escape through there!
John first tried the corridor leading to a room. It was just a storage room, and it smelled terrible, because of the rotting food. The stinking aroma drove John from the room. Then, John tried the long corridor. It turned out it was a dead end, but there was something red on the end…
John ran from the blood. His mind raced: Will I die here? Was that blood? How did it get here? Will I get out? He returned to the entrance and tried the final route, the moldy door. Success! It led to a room with a staircase in it! John went up the staircase. He remembered that the missing part was on the left side. John turned left, and found three doors. The first one led to a bedroom with a skeleton in it. The skeleton radiated unluckiness. John rapidly closed the door. The second one led to a dining hall. There was nothing in it. Then, the third door creaked open…
And John went inside. There was seemingly nothing inside the room until the ghosts appeared. They cracked happily and let out a scream. The ghosts were dancing around him, and the skeletons were inspecting him. He was literally the first living human they have seen in centuries.
John saw that there was a door on the end of the room and bolted towards it when the ghosts talked. “Now, little human, don’t go. We won’t hurt you. We just need some company, as we died 400 years ago, and nobody has been here. Can you just sincerely be with us for just one little night?” And the ghost lunged towards John.
John opened the door and slammed it at the ghosts, and found out that he was at the hole. He jumped out, and fell onto a tree. Luckily, John was OK and he was just a bit bruised. John then ran back home and sweared that he will never go back to that haunted house ever again, or will he?

Our supplies are getting meager. The desert is as hot as ever, and the red sands stretch infinitely. Our water supplies are just going low. The GPS systems have ran out of battery, and prove no use. We have possibly no hope of getting out of the desert. The one flare won’t be any use because there is normally no one in the desolate desert. We are going in the direction of the nearest city, but we are not sure. The other people on our team are getting exasperated and depressed. We have very important rock core samples to deliver back. We will probably die, but the samples are super important. It shows that there is gold, titanium, iron and many more useful metals and minerals in those desolate lands. The samples are heavy, and we can throw them away, and probably survive the trip, but for the development of our country!
The team suggested me to use one of the flares. What if someone sees? I believe that the chances of someone seeing us are tiny. I estimate that there is a week of travel before we reach the nearest city. We will most certainly die of thirst, as our water will only last 4 more days. I will use the final flare, and I pray for help!
If when you find this journal and I am dead, take back the samples and the evidence! A lot of people have died in this dangerous desert, I sincerely hope you survive. Take these samples back. This is my will.
…
Boom! The flare goes off. The bright red flame burnt for a whole minute. The whole team looked up in expectation, but there was nothing. Just when they were about to go, a dot starts to come closer and closer! It was a rescue plane!

I lay on a shabby bed with a fever. I felt that my stomach wanted to exit my body. I went to the toilet and I vomited yet again. It was late night. I wondered if the journey could progress or not. MyHow did I get into this…
One day, my mom found out about a family trip program to Nepal. Many other kids were going too. My mom asked me if I wanted to go. I thought that it would be hard hiking in the mountains, but at least the view would be impressive. So, I agreed. We went on a plane and went to the first place. It was a city. We did not stay there for long, and we only stayed for a few days. The next place we went to was relatively rugged. We trudged up the muddy path, and it was very dark when we finally reached the hotel.
The hotel was kind of small, but I did not care much as I went to sleep.
The second day of hiking was harder than the first. We trudged up the snowy, mountains, hail and snow pelting us. We went up the mountain slowly. When we got to the hotel, I was all wet, and set by the stove, watching others p0lay games on their phones. I warmed up, and went to the room to wash. But, the hotel only provided hot water for money! We were very lucky, since the last customer did not use up all his/her water. We used the hot water to brush our teeth and wash. Tomorrow morning, we went on the most treacherous but most fun part of the journey.
There was some ice, so we put on our snowshoes. it started snowing, and we kids began to have fun. We had snowball fights and ate the snow, even though it did not taste well. We went on and hiked, and I found a beautiful quartz rock. We went up the snowy path and aw the vest view in a few days: Snowy mountains liked together, like a huge wall, majestic and mysterious. We hiked to the next hotel.
After dinner, disaster struck. I started to vomit, and I had a fever. I was on the hotel bed, thinking that I probably ate something contaminated. My stomach tried to send up more vomit, and I went to the toilet in response. Oh, what did I do to end up here! I vomited until my stomach felt empty. Oddly, I felt wet, even though my mom said I was in risk of dehydration.
In the wilderness, the best I could get was some Chinese medicine to stop the vomiting and some oral rehydration salts to regain my expelled bodily fluids. I kept vomiting until about 10pm at night, and finally went to sleep. Miraculously, I recovered overnight, and only felt my stomach gurgling in the morning.
At the breakfast, the team got some bad news: there is too much snow on the mountain, so we had top went down. We slowly went down the mountain. Sometimes, the snow around us was up to my neck! We finally got to the place, where there was a few Jeeps waiting for us. This trip of the mountains have finally ended!

The ferris wheel is run down and broken, and it is overgrown by plants. The smell of rusting steel filled my nose, and the wheel creaked sadly. The lush greenery of the plains was very different from the decrepit wheel. The wheel was like the sunset, majestic but dying. The air tasted of rust mixed with flowers, salty like tears but fragrant. The grass was moving slowly because of the warm wind, the green blades rippling like waves.
The mountains in the background were tall and mighty, but they were crying. They thought about the pain they went through because of the mining, how their bodies had chunks and chunks being ripped out, and how the iron had been made into a huge wheel, whom they called their son. The mountains were proud at that time But, as the year went past, the humans have stopped using the ferris wheel. It has now fell into disrepair. The mountains think it is their son, their offspring, their glory!
Creak! The wheel’s shaft creaked, threatening to snap, groaning and snapping like a stick under pressure. It could snap anytime and tumble onto the new park underneath. The wheel felt like the park has stolen its glory, and it was angry. It struggled against its bonds, and finally broke them. The rivets connecting it tho the ground snapped, and the wheel rolled towards the park, only to be stopped by a tree. The already weak wheel broke into a lot of parts, shattering as the wheel rammed into the tree.
Now, it has died. The parts slowly tumbled towards the fair walls, not, doing any damage. It had made its parents sad. It liked the feeling of humans riding him. He believed that the humans will return and save it, the sad shards incompatible with the cheerful fair. Until one day, the bulldozers came and lifted up the final shards. The parts were taken away, and it was took back to the city. The wheel was happy, because it thought that the humans are coming to rescue it. It was took into a big factory. Suddenly, it fell into a huge pool, and was instantly melted. It thought at the last moment: Maybe I’ll be used again… -
Analysis
The coronavirus is a virus that infects about 90% of the people who get in contact with the virus. This virus has now been barely controlled, but it could break free and cause a wildfire of infections. Now, every country is thinking of ways to eradicate this virus. Now, I think the best way is to have a ring vaccination and make herd immunity. Herd immunity could make most people immune and contain the virus. Herd immunity is the best shot.
