Have you ever told your parents ‘ we are in the twenty first century mum i think i need a phone now!’ and the answer was no.This happens to most teens well what if i tell you i have great reasons that you can use to get a phone!

Everyone has one: Nearly every person you walk past will be holding a phone. Phones are something that everyone in the world has at the moment.If you tell your parents that you dont want to be the only person without a phone then yoou probably would not get far but its always worth a shot.

Communication: You need a phone to talk to people from long distances say they cancelled sport training and your parents dont know. You need a phone to call them and to tell them to come and pick you up.

I will do all the chores in the house: This works with some parents that just want to lie down more often.Tell you parents more convincing reasons first then let them know you will do all the chores just in case they agree anyway.

These are just three reasons that you can use to try and get a phone.

Climates in the Asia region.

The Southern sections of Asia are warm to cold, while far north-eastern areas such as Siberia are very cold. East Asia has a temperateclimate. The highest temperature recorded in Asiawas 54.0 °C (129.2 °F) at Tirat Zvi, Israel on June 21, 1942.

Flora in the Asian region.

Asia has the richest flora of the earth’s seven continents. Because Asia is the largest continent, it is not surprising that 100,000 different kinds of plants grow within its various climate zones, which range from tropical to Arctic.
Asian plants, which include ferns, gymnosperms, and flowering vascular plants, make up 40 percent of the earth’s plant species. The endemic plant species come from more than forty plant families and fifteen hundred genera. 

Asia is divided into five major vegetation regions based on the richness and types of each region’s flora: tropical rain forests in Southeast Asia, temperate mixed forests in East Asia, tropical rain/ dry forests in South Asia, desert and steppe in Central and West Asia, and taiga and tundra in North Asia.

Fauna in the Asia region.

All the animals living in Asia and its surrounding seas and islands are considered the fauna of Asia. Asia is the eastern part of the Palaearctic ecozone (which in turn is part of the Holarctic), and its south-eastern part belongs to the Indomalaya ecozone (previously called the Oriental region).

Mountain Ranges in the Asian region.

Several significant mountain ranges stretch across Asia. Include the Altay, Gahats, Himalayan, Kunlun, Tien Shan, Ural and Zagros Mountains.

River Systems in the Asia region.

Dozens of significant rivers rise in Asia. Here we highlight a few on the map and (briefly) describe some of the most significant ones, including the Ganges, Indus, Lena, Mekong, Ob, Yangtze and Yellow.

Earthquake patterns in the Asian region.

The reason there are so many earthquakes in South East Asia is very simple, there are two reasons, Tectonic plates, and the Ring of Fire. The Tectonic plates actually make the ring of fire so it’s mostly tectonic plates. There are two main Tectonic Plates, the Eurasian plate, and the Philippine Plate; these two are constantly rubbing each other making more quakes. The Ring of Fire is made of the Pacific plate and the North America plate.

Asia’s environment can be explained a lot these few points were talking about a bit of something that got to do with the Asian environments.

The great pyramid of Giza is one of the Seven Wonders of the World and is the only one still here today. The pharaoh Khufu built it. However, how did they build these amazing monuments with such accuracy and why?

Biography of Khufu

Khufu was a pharaoh that ruled in his twenties. Once he became the pharaoh of Egypt, he wasted no time in getting started on building the great pyramid of Giza, as he knew it would take some years in constructing it. His nephew was appointed head of construction in building the great pyramid. It took them around 23 years to build the pyramid for Khufu. They used 2,300,000 mastabas to build this pyramid and the pharaoh Khufu was very proud of it. They built the pyramid for Khufu, as this is where his burial chamber would be.

How was the pyramid constructed?

These pyramids took time and effort to construct. The way they constructed is not known until some Egyptologists figured it out. Large stone blocks called mastabas are formed in quarry near modern day Cairo and then shipped to Giza using boats that travelled through the river Nile. Once they arrived at Giza, they transported them onto sledges, which they pushed or pulled to move it. Since it was a hard job, the Egyptians found a way to make it easier they would splash water in front of the sledge to reduce the friction and make it easier to pull. Then once they reached the construction site, they would hall the stones up using ramps.

What is the reason why the pyramids were built?

The reason why they built this pyramid was so it could be the tomb of Khufu even though his body was not found there that was what the purpose of the pyramid.

Interesting Facts

• There has been no writing or hieroglyphics found inside the Great Pyramid of Giza.
• There were three burial chambers inside. One of the chambers was built into the bedrock underground. The queen’s chamber was higher and the king’s chamber was the highest. Khufu did not intend to use the queen’s chamber for any of his wives. It is thought that he intended to use it for a statue of himself.
•  When the pyramid was built, the entire structure was covered with what is known as casing stones. Casing stones were actually limestone that were extremely well polished.

Twelfth Night the movie is based of the play Twelfth night written by William Shakespeare.This was based of the roman tradition where twelve days after Christmas masters and servants would swap jobs.Here i have written a summary that summaries the play and the movie.

Duke Orsino of Illyria is in love with Olivia, but his advances are rejected. A shipwrecked Viola arrives on his shores, and with the help of a Captain, disguises herself as a boy, calling herself Cesario, and enters Orsino’s service. Orsino takes to Cesario, and sends ‘him’ to woo Olivia for him. Viola, however, is already falling in love with Orsino.

Cesario arrives to woo Olivia, and Olivia falls in love with ‘him’. She rejects Orsino’s approach, but asks Cesario to return. Orsino discusses the nature of love with Cesario, and sends ‘him’ again to Olivia, who confesses her love for Cesario, much to ‘his’ dismay. Meanwhile, Viola’s twin brother Sebastian, also a casualty of the shipwreck, arrives in Illyria with the help of Antonio, a sea-captain and former enemy of Orsino. Sebastian looks around the town, and Antonio gives him his purse to use, deciding to stay at the inn for safety.

Staying with Olivia is her uncle Sir Toby, who is encouraging Sir Andrew, his drinking-companion and source of funds, to woo Olivia. While carousing with Olivia’s fool Feste late one night, they quarrel with Malvolio, and with the help of Olivia’s maid Maria, they decide to trick him. Maria writes a letter to Malvolio, forging Olivia’s handwriting, to make Malvolio think Olivia loves him. The letter asks Malvolio to dress and behave in eccentric ways.

Toby, Andrew, and Fabian observe Malvolio opening the letter and absorbing its contents. He approaches Olivia according to the letter’s instructions, and she thinks him mad. Toby arranges for him to be confined in a dark room. Later, he gets Feste to disguise himself as a priest, Sir Topas, to taunt Malvolio. Malvolio writes a letter of complaint to Olivia.

Meanwhile, Andrew prepares to leave the house, having seen Cesario apparently being more successful with Olivia, but Toby persuades him to stay, and to challenge Cesario to a duel. Sir Toby separately informs Andrew and Cesario that the other is a ferocious fighter, and they approach each other with trepidation. They are about to fight when Antonio arrives, intending to defend Cesario, whom he has mistaken for Sebastian. Antonio is arrested by officers who recognize him as Orsino’s enemy. He asks for his purse from Cesario, who of course professes no knowledge of it.

Feste is sent to bring Cesario to Olivia, but encounters Sebastian instead. They meet Andrew, who strikes Sebastian, thinking him to be Cesario, and Andrew is beaten for his pains. Olivia arrives to stop a fight between Sebastian and Toby. Sebastian is immediately taken with her. Thinking him to be Cesario, she is delighted that he has finally responded to her advances, and they go off to be married.

Orsino is told by Cesario of Antonio’s arrival, but when Antonio is brought before him and asserts that he has been with Cesario for some time, Orsino thinks him mad. Olivia arrives, and again rejects Orsino’s advances. As he and Cesario prepare to leave, Olivia insists on Cesario staying, and calls him her husband. When Cesario denies it, she presents the priest as confirmation. Orsino is enraged, thinking Cesario has betrayed him. Toby and Andrew pass by, having just been severely beaten by Sebastian. Sebastian then arrives, and the twins delightedly recognize each other. Everyone is amazed, Viola’s true identity is revealed, and she and Orsino decide to be married.

Feste delivers Malvolio’s letter to Olivia, and he is brought from his cell. Fabian reveals the nature of the trick played upon him, and Malvolio leaves vowing revenge on them all. They all prepare for celebration, leaving Feste to bid the audience farewell.
