Book Review 2-10★Animal in danger

I read the book 'Animal in Danger'.

Every year some species of animal disappear. We never see them again.

Why are the animals in danger??

Long long ago, there were a lot more species of animal than there are now. Some animals die because of small changes in the weather. And most animals are in danger from our behaviour. We can't protect animals. We put new buildings on empty land and don't think about animals. We make new roads, we move rivers, we take away trees. some people hunt and kill animals. They don't kill the animals for food, because they like hunting!!Elephant die because people want ivory. Rhinoceros die because people want to buy their horns. Some people make a lot of money from animals. Whales are also in danger from hunting. Now, most countries stopped hunting a number of years ago, but it is difficult to waych ships and protect animals.

What can I do??

We can stop animals dying. Everyone can do thing in a small way. For example we ride bicycle instead of car, please stop wearing the leopard skin coat. A coat from a dead animal isn't beautiful. Don't you think so?? I think everyone have to do something for animals. If there are not animals in the world, we can't live. Animals is so important. We should think about animal in danger!!

Book review 2-06★Titanic

I read ' Titanic' this week. I watched movie 'Titanic' before.
The Titanic was the most famous ship in history. It was gogeous ship. 15000 people made the titanic. They made it in 1912 in Balfast, Northern Ireland. It was the biggest ship in the world. it was 24900 tons, 265 metres lonf, and 28 metres across. It could go at 46 kilometers an hour,, so it was one of the fastest ship in the world, too. Thomos Andrew was the designer of the Titanic. He was first class passengers. He talked ' Titanic is very safe, this ship can never sink'.
Is it true??...
On the night of 14 April the sea was Quiet. The weather was goode, but it was so cold. Then, two sailors looked out at the sky. Sailor saw something in the front of the ship. It was so big. It was iceberg!! It was not far away!! He called officer, and said about it. The iceberg came nearerand nearer. The iceberg hits the ships!!
Andreaw understood about this crisis, and said ' The ship is going to sink'. the captain made the emergency message. But Nobody was listening. There was nothing to help Titanic....
The Titanic had twenty life boats. These life boats could carry 1,178 people, but there were 2207 people on the ship. Harf of the people, there was no lifeboat.
First, women and children went to lifeboat. So men have to wait on the ship. Woman parted with her hasband, child parted thier father. It was so sad story. There were first class, second class, third class passengers on the ship. Almost Third passender couldn't get the life boat.
The Titanic gradually went to sink.
Finally more than one thousand peoole died. Why was it become the result? The life boat could take 60 people. but, someome life boats didn't take many people. One boat taked only 12 peoples. And some empty life boats didn't go to help. They only watched the person who is drowned. Only one boat went back to people in the water, but itwas too late. Nearly everyone was dead in the cold water.

I think every lifeboats have to go back to help. Returned to help only one boat. It is too terrible.
