February 14th is Valentine’s Day. Valentine’s Day is a day for romance and love. It is also a day for fun! You see a lot of romantic symbols on Valentine’s Day. Some romantic symbols you may see include roses (because roses are thought to be a romantic flower), Cupid (a little boy who can make people fall in love with his special bow and arrow), and hearts.

The Peace Day with John Lennon!
1. Read the following song and try to guess what the lyrics tell us.
Imagine there's no Heaven
It's easy if you try
And no Hell below us
Above us only sky
Imagine all the people
Living for today
Imagine there's no country
It isn't hard to do
Nothing to kill or die for
And no religion too
Imagine all the people
Living life in peace
You may say I'm a dreamer
But I'm not the only one
Maybe someday you will join us
And the world will be as one
Imagine no possessions
I wonder if you can
No need for greed or hunger
Or Brotherhood of Man
Imagine all the people
Sharing all the world
You may say that I'm a dreamer
But I'm not the only one
And maybe someday you will join us
And the world will be as one
You may say that I'm a dreamer
But I'm not the only one
Maybe someday you will join us
And the world will be as one.

QUEEN OF THE SKY
Lee el siguiente texto. Cópialo en un documento de word y tradúcelo con ayuda del siguiente diccionario: www.wordreference.com
Next autumn the biggest passenger plane in the world - the Airbus A380 - is going to make its first public flight.
The plane is enormous - it's nearly 35 metres high and 75 metres long. To give you a better idea of its size, try imagining ten buses placed on top of each other for nearly an entire football field (a field measures 90 metres)! The wings on the Airbus are long enough to park 70 cars on! There are also 500 kilometres of cables.
When it is full, the Airbus will carry 853 passengers - that's over 300 more than today's jumbo jets. Inside the plane there's going to be lots of space for people to relax and travel in comfort. There are also going to be cinemas, bars, shops, and even a gym with showers!

The new super-plane has Rolls Royce engines, which are very quiet, so it isn't going to cause as much noise pollution as ordinary planes.
The Airbus A380 is going to take holidaymakers between London Heathrow and Changi airport in Singapore.
