What I have learnt from watching this video clip? Some people are unfortunate to have some accidents happened on them and we are lucky that no misfortune have befallen on us. The girl which have her hand bitten off by the shark is very brave and i admire her for that. I learnt that we should not give up our dreams and things that we like because of some accident happened to us.We have to work hard towards our goal and 1percent of inspiration, 99% on hardwork.
Give your personnel opinions on why those people featured have finished strong. My opinion is they are strong enough to finish strong despite of their disability. They did not give up because they have lost a hand or have illness befallen on them. Instead they worked even harder to achieve their dreams.This shows that nothing is impossible if u try your best.

My opinions Drugs will spoil your health so why do it when u know it.At the beginning u may feel great but after that u will feel terrible.Drugs are not 'cool'.If u want to relax, u can read books do some exercise or listen to some songs.When friends tells you to have some drugs, u must tell them NO.Drugs will only spoil your health and it is nothing benitficial to your health.Drugs will spoil your future.So remember DO NOT TAKE DRUGS!

What is Global Warming
When we talk about global warming, we talk about the 'greenhouse effect'. This is actually a natural and essential feature of our atmosphere, without which our planet would be uninhabitable.
What Causes Global Warming
Our daily activities such as driving the car, burning of large amount of rubbish,littering and deforestation. All this contribute to carbon dioxide which is also called the 'greenhouse gases'. All this gases accummulate in the atmosphere and trap heat that normally would exit into outer space.
How can you and the government help to reduce global warming?
Factories can cut down in the toxic gases that they have to release to the air or water.We can reduce global warming by praticing the 3R's.We can stop the littering so that we dont need to burn so much rubbish.Save electricity and water to reduce global warming.
