Dear Hany,

This morning, we left Nairobi and drove to the Masai Mara Park. We are staying at the edge of the park near a river. It's a very beautiful place with lots of trees and flowers. It's dark now and I can hear lions and other animals outside. It's really exciting. I'm looking forward to driving through the park tomorrow to see all the animals. We are going to drive to the Mara River.

             At this time of year,(4) it is very hot here and the grass is dry. You can see zebras swim across the river and go south where the grass is greener. There are a lot of lions in the park, so I expect we will see some tomorrow. And I hope we'll see crocodiles when we're at the river. We are staying here for(3) three nights, and then we're going to Mount Kenya. I'll be back home next week

During the 17th century, more sailors visited the new country, but no one stayed long. An Englishman, James Cook, went there in 1770 and spent some time in Botany Bay. He and his men met the Australian people and learnt their language.

 A small number of English people went to live in Australia and most of them became farmers. In 1820, the European population was only 34,000, but it grew

very quickly. In 1850, there were 405,000 Europeans in Australia. Most people lived on farms and sold wool and meat from their sheep. In 1851, a farmer found gold, and many people travelled from England to look for gold. Between 1850 and 1860, more than 500,000 people moved to Australia and by 1860, the population was more than a million. Why did they move from England?
