Tradition
In my family ,certain tradition are very important.
Id-ul-Adha is one of the most important Muslim festivals.It is celebrated two months after Id-ul-Fitr,a festival which comes at the end of Ramadan ,the month when Muslims fast through each day.Id-ul -Adha also marks the end of Hajj.This a journey ,or pilgrimage,that Muslims make to their holy city ofMakka or Mecca,in Saudi Arabia.
Ibrahim is one of the Prophets of Islam.Muslims believe that Allah (the Muslum name for God) appeared to Ibrahim in a dream and asked him to sacrifice his son Ishmail, to show his obedience to Allah. Ibrahim followed Allah's orders and took Ishmail to Mina, a city near makkah .just as Ibrahim prepared to offer his son,Allah stopped him.It is Ibrahim's celebrate every year at Id-ul-Adha.
The festival of Id-ul-Adha takes place on the last day of Hajj,Muslims travel the same path that Ibrahim took to Mina to sacrifice Ishmail.Millions of Muslims arrive at Makkah about nine days before Id-ul-Adha.When they get there,they have to do certain things.These include walking around the Kabah,a large square-shaped building in the middle of the Sacred Mosque in Makkah.
On the tenth and final day of Hajj,Muslime gather at Mina for their last duty.The pilgrims begin the day by throwing pebbles at the Jamarah,a stone pillar that stands for the devil.The devil tried to persuade Ibrahim not to do as Allah asked.The devil tried to tempt Ibrahim and Ishmail three times .Each time they drove him away by throwing seven stones at him.
On the day of Id-ul-Adha,Muslims around the world who are not on Hajj wake up early and puton new clothes .Then they gather at a mosque join in morning prayers.Id-ul -Adha is a time when Muslime ask Allah to forgive their sins,and to help them become kinder and stronger.After prayers, Muslims hug and greet each other.Then they visit family and friends,and celebrate the festival of Id-ul-Adha together.Many Muslims also take time to visit cemeteries and pray for their family and friends who have died.
Id-ul-Adha teaches the importance of looking after eachother and obeying Allah.Many Muslims buy meat from special stores and give some of it to the poor.Muslims make sure that no one is hungry on this special day.The pilgrims in Makkah also hand out food and money among poor pilgrims.Muslims make delicious food as a part of the Id-ul-Adha celebrations.Different kinds offood are made by Muslims around the world.Biryani,a dish made with rice and lamb,is afavorite with lots of children in India.Many Indonesian Muslims make rice cakes that are eaten with lamb or chicken curry.In some countries,such as Iraq and the United Arab Emirates,music and dance are an important part of the celebrations.

St.Patrick's Day
What does St.Patrick's Day mean?
At first, there is some history of little is known of Patrick's early life.
At the age of sixteen ,he was kidnapped by Irish raiders.
It's believed he was held somewhere on the west coast of Irish.
A ccording to his confession, he was told by God in a dream.

Originally,the colour associated with Saint Patrick was blue.However,over the years the colour green and its association with Saint Patrick's Day grew .Green ribbons and shamrocks were worn in celebration of St Patrick's Day as early as the 17 th century. He is said to have used the shamrock,a three -leaved plant,to explain the Holy Trinity to the pagan Irish,and the wearing and display of shamrocks and shamrock-inspired designs have become a ubiquitous feature of the day.In the 1798 rebellion,in hope of making a political statement,Irish soldiers wore full green uniforms on 17 March in hopes of catching public attention.The phrase the wearing of the green to wear a shamrock on one's clothing,derives from a song of the same name.
Outside,in Argentina and especially in Buenos Aires,all-night long parties are celebrated in designated streets,since the weather is comfortably warm in March.People dance and drink only beer throughout the night,until seven or eight in eight in the morning,and although the tradition of mocking those who do not wear green does not exist,many people wear something green.In Buenos Aires,the party is held in the downtown street of Reconquista,where are several Irish pubs,in 2006,there were50,000 people in this street and the pubs nearly.Neither the Catholic Church nor the Irish community,the fifth largest in the world outside Ireland,take part in ,the organization of the parties

Earth
Where are we?
Where is the Earth ? Good question.
The Earth from space.The Solar System,Our earth is in the middle of a family of planets that all move around our Sun.We call this the Solar System .So far ,life has not been discovered on any other planets besides Earth,but it soon might be!
Diving down a bit,we can now see a town in Detroit next door to the beach .But we still can't see any people down there .
Zoom in on a house and ,at last ,we can see people!Now look back at the Earth, and you 'll soon realize how big it is.It's absolutely enormous.
We think we know so much about the Earth and even about space,but what lies beneath our feet ?Imagine that the earth is an apple.The crust that we stand on would be as thick as the apple skin . That leaves a lot of something are else underneath.
May has only dug about 8 miles into the Earth ,which is only about a five-hundreth ofthe journey to the center.Scientists can only guess what is beneath,but we doknow that it is very,very hot.
Earth is made up of rocks.Granite is a typical contienental rock.Basalt is a typical ocean floor rock,and peridotite is a mantle rock.About 29 percent of theEarth's surface is made up ofland,which is divided into seven continents,apiece of land that is not broken up by sea.These are North America,South America,Europe,Africa,Australasia,Asia,and Antarctica.
Without mountains ,the Earth would look far less spectacular.About 5 percent of the wourld's land surface is made up of amazingh highland.The Himalayan Mountains,in Asia,are good example of fold mountains.The are 50 million years old,which is relatively new!Mount Everest in the Himalayas is the highest point on Earth.
Mountains are made when the Earth 's crust is pushed up in big folds or forced up or down in blocks.The 450 million-year old Scottish Highlands used to be craggylike the Himalayas,below,but wind and rain have worn them down.
Long lines of islands in the oceans are actuallythe tips of huge mountain ranges,which lie underwater .The island of Hawaii,Mauna Kea is the world's tallest mountain from the bottom of the sea to the tip.Block mountains are formed when the Earth's crust is movea up or down in blocks.Banff National park,Canada,is a spectacular eample of a block mountain.
The pressure builds up underground. Hot ,liquid rock,called magma,finds it's way to a weak part between the Earth 's plates and explodes.Welcome to the volcano.The force of an exploding volcano is enormous-like opening a can of shaken,soda.Chunks of molten rock as big as house can be flung high into the air ,and dust can travel as much as13 miles 20 km high.As the insides of the Earth explode out of the ground,the lava and ash settle,and over time a perfectly shaped mountain is formed .In effect,the Earth is turning a little bit of itself inside out.When magma pours out of volcanoes, it is call lava.It rolls slowly downhill in a huge river,burningeverything in its path .When it cools,it solidifies into rock, call igneous rock.In some volcanic areas,you can see heat coming up from under the ground.Mud bubbles and hot water jets,called geysers,shoot up hhigh. They sometimes smell of rotten eggs because of a gas called hydrogen sulfide.Imagine waking up one night to find the ground trembling and shaking.That's what it's like to feel an earthquake.These sudden movements in the Earth's plates can cause terrifying damage.When an earthquakehappen underwater,vibrations cause ripples in the sea .They grow and grow until they are enormous,deadly waves,onto the shore.An eathquake is caused when two of the Earth's plates slide against each other.The line that they slide along is called a fault.When they move,they cause vibrations across the ground.I like to talk what I saw in movie because I think the movie was very interesting and the technology used was very higher.
