<strike>One</strike> <font style="background-color: yellow;">A</font> day of mine

I was woke<font style="background-color: yellow;">n</font> up by a phone call at 10 a.m. today. The caller told me he's the person who <strike>had</strike> discussed with me<strike> about the</strike> <font style="background-color: yellow;">a</font> job on a recruiting app yesterday<font style="background-color: yellow;">, and</font> he wan<font style="background-color: yellow;">ts</font> <strike>ed</strike> me to attend an interview at 2 p.m. tomorrow. At that time, I thought it's too bad because my voice was so hoarse, he will know I am still sleeping at 10 a.m. and think I'm lazy. At the end, he said he would text me the company's address <strike>and it turned out</strike> <font style="background-color: yellow;">but</font> he didn't. And then, I got up and turned on my computer to sign in to the recruiting website for a job again.

I went to the supermarket with my mom <font style="background-color: yellow;">i</font>n the afternoon. I didn't hear my phone when I was shopping. And I don't like checking my phone <strike>then</strike><font style="background-color: yellow;">now</font> and <font style="background-color: yellow;">then</font> which is a bad habit when I'm asking for a job. So I missed a phone call which <font style="background-color: yellow;">was</font> maybe from a recruiter. But I received a text coming from an educational institution, it said the recruiter wants me to attend an interview at 2 p.m. tomorrow. I have another opportunity now - fortunately!

Yes!

Northumberland National Park

Today my mind is <strike>in</strike> <font style="background-color: yellow;">on</font> <strike>the</strike> Northumberland National Park. <strike>This</strike> <font style="background-color: yellow;">It</font> is to the north, on the border with Scotland.

You can see there<strike>,</strike> moorlands, peat bogs, haymeadows and ancient forests. I would like to walk through one of them.

Also, this is a great place to see birds, for example, red and black grouses. In Spain, there <strike>are</strike> <font style="background-color: yellow;">is</font> only one species of grouse in Picos de Europa National Park and <strike>they</strike> <font style="background-color: yellow;">there </font>are<strike> in</strike> a limited number and protected because there are a small number of them. I wish I could see one of them.

In this English National Park, you can see many types of birds. I <strike>am</strike> <font style="background-color: yellow;">found it </font>fun to find out <strike>his</strike> t<font style="background-color: yellow;">heir</font> name<font style="background-color: yellow;">s</font> in English and the correspondence in Spanish. There we can see lapwings (avefría), snipes (agachadiza), redshanks (archibebe), oystercatchers (astrero), golden plovers (chorlitejo dorado) and the emblem of this National Park, the Curlews (Zarapito real).

I think the "avefría" has this name because in Spain this bird returns in the cold season.
"Agachadiza" is related to the verb "agachar". The reason is this bird is constantly bending down to find food among the stones.
"Archibebe" is a curious name because the prefix "archi" means "muy", so this is a bird that drink<font style="background-color: yellow;">s</font> <strike>ing</strike> very much(archi-bebe= muy bebedor). All <strike>this</strike> <font style="background-color: yellow;">these</font> kind<font style="background-color: yellow;">s</font> of birds need<strike>s</strike> to find their food among the stones into the rivers.
The "chorlito dorado"<strike> remember</strike> r<font style="background-color: yellow;">eminds</font> me <font style="background-color: yellow;">of</font> a Spanish sentence " Cabeza de chorlito". Having a "cabeza de chorlito" it's <strike>the same</strike> <font style="background-color: yellow;">means </font>that you are a forgetful person. Really I don't think this bird is a forgetful bird but actually, it <font style="background-color: yellow;">is</font> <strike>ever</strike> <font style="background-color: yellow;">always</font> looking<strike> for </strike>among the stones, all the time.
<strike>At the end </strike><font style="background-color: yellow;">Finally,</font> the "zarapito". I don't know why<font style="background-color: yellow;"> it has </font>this name but<font style="background-color: yellow;"> it</font> is a great word to practice some Spanish sounds (Z,R,P and T) ;-)

That was really interesting to read and I definitely learned something new. This is pretty solid and you are able to communicate your ideas with just some small mistakes. Best of luck and I hope this is helpful :D

the Chinese zodiac

As we know, we have the Chinese zodiac animals in China. They are the rat, the ox, the tiger, the rabbit, the dragon, the snake, the horse, the sheep, the monkey, the rooster, the dog and the pig.  In China, every year has its own zodiac animal. Today I'm going to tell you the story behind it.

Long long ago, in China, there were no zodiac animals. Once while the Jade Emperor was walking on the earth, he came up an idea about looking for 12 zodiac animals. He held a meeting and told every animal how to be chosen as the zodiac animal.

At that time the cat and the rat were good friends. The the cat was very lazy, it slept all day. So he asked the rat to wake him up while he was sleeping in the morning. The rat promised quickly, but he wouldn't do it. The next day, the rat woke up very early, of course, he didn't wake up the cat. “It is quite difficult to take part in the team, the more animals that join, the more difficult it is for me, so I won't wake the cat up,” he thought.

It was time for choosing the animals! The Jade Emperor wanted the ox to be the first zodiac animal. Everyone agreed, except the rat. The rat promised to prove to the Jade Emperor that the people will only say a rat is big but never say an ox is big. Then he stood on the back of the ox and walked on the street. “How big the the rat is!” said everyone. So the rat became the first animal of all. When the cat woke up and was forced to accept the result, he was very angry with the rat and they were enemies ever after.

This is really good and very accurate! Well done :D There were just a couple of small errors but otherwise perfect!

hello

I need you, like a bird needs the sky.
