The respiratory system, in anatomy and physiology, are organs that deliver oxygen to the circulatory system to be transported to all body cells. The respiratory and circulatory system work together to deliver oxygen to cells and remove carbon dioxide in a two-phase process called respiration.

The first phase of respiration begins with breathing in, or inhalation. Inhalation brings air from outside the body into the lungs. Oxygen in the air moves from the lungs through blood vessels to the heart, which pumps the oxygen-rich blood to all the body. Oxygen then moves from the bloodstream into cells, which completes the first phase of respiration. In the cells, oxygen is used in a separate energy-producing process called cellular respiration, which produces carbon dioxide as a by product.

The second phase of respiration begins with the movement of carbon dioxide from the cells to the bloodstream. The bloodstream carries carbon dioxide to the heart, which pumps the carbon dioxide-laden blood to the lungs. In the lungs, breathing out, or exhalation, removes carbon dioxide from the body, thus completing the respiration cycle.

 

How does a complete respiration cycle work?

Faster planes and cheaper flights are making it easier than ever before for people to travel. In the most developed societies, visiting exotic places is a sought-after status symbol. The tourism industries of both developed and developing countries have recognized this fact and are learning to take advantage of it.

There are, however, some problems associated with this new industry. Firstly, there is the increasing crime rate. Some locals see tourists as an easy prey because, not only are they in unfamiliar territory and therefore less able to take care of themselves, but also they carry visible items of wealth, such as cameras and jewelry which can be disposed of quickly for profit.

Another major problem is health. With greater mobility comes greater danger of spreading contagious diseases around the world. One carrier returning home could easily start an epidemic before their illness was diagnosed. Moreover, the emergence of many diseases which resist antibiotics is causing scientists to be increasingly concerned about this issue.

Also to be considered is the natural environment, which can be seriously threatened by too many visitors. Australia's Great Barrier Reef, for example, is in danger of being destroyed by tourists and there are plans to restrict visitors to some of the more delicate coral cays.

These are just three of the reasons why any country should be wary of committing itself to an extensive tourism development program.

 

Why is the crime rate increasing due to the new industry?

Geyser

A geyser is the result of underground water under the combined conditions of high temperatures and increased pressure beneath the surface of the earth. Since temperature raises approximately 1˚F for every sixty feet under the earth's surface, and pressure increases with depth, the water that seeps down in crack and fissures until it reaches very hot rock in the earth interior becomes heated to temperature in excess of 290°F. Because of the greater pressure, the water shoots out of the surface in the form of steam and hot water. The result is a geyser. In order to function, then a geyser must have source of heat, reservoir where water can be stored until the temperature rises to an unstable point, an opening through which the hot water and steam can escape, and underground channels for resupplying water after an eruption.

Favorable conditions for geyser exist in some regions of the world including New Zealand, Iceland, and the Yellowstone National Park area of the United States. The most famous geyser in the world is Old Faithfull in Yellow Park. Old Faithfull erupts almost every hour, rising to a height of 125 to 170 feet and expelling more than ten thousand gallons during each eruption.

 

How geyser is produced?

                Once upon a time an oil and a pigeon met and talked.

                “There are more owns than pigeons,” said Owl.

                “No way,” said Pigeon, “There are many more pigeons.”

                “Lets count!” answerd Owl, “We will meet in the big woods a week  from  today.”

                On that day,  the owls came first. The trees were full of them. The owls laughed and said, “Oowah-wah- wah!”

                Soon they heard a loud roar from the sky. Pigeons were coming from everywhere! The owls could not believe there could be so many pigeons. They sat there loving their heads back and forth staring with wide eyes.

                The owls stared so long and hard at the pigeons that their eyes just stayed that way. Then, one by one the owls took off, fled into the sky.

                 In the meantime, the pigeons were shouting to each other, celebrating their victory. Since then, owns have always travelled at night when the pigeons are asleep.

Why were the owls laughing when they firts arrived?

                My elder sister and I are loving into a new house this weekend, so we decided to do shopping to furnish the place.

                First, we went to an appliance story not too far from our new house, and we bought a refrigerator for the kitchen. You really can’t live without one because you have to keep your food cold or froze so it doesn’t soil. Then, we bought a washing machine to wash and dry our clothes. We don’t want to go to a laundromat to do this every week like we used to do when we are in a boarding house. Next, we bought a rice cooked. We certainly need one because it can make life easier. You simply put the rice into the cooked and press the cooking button, then you can do other chores while the cooked is cooking the rice. Finally, we picked up a microwave oven. If we are in a hurry and don have time to cook, we can place the food in the microwave and heat it up quickly.

                We haven’t purchased everything we need to furnish our new place, but we think we have the basics appliances to make life more comfortable for now.

 

"... so it doesn't spoil." (Paragraph 2)
The word 'it' refers to ....

From the text we can say that ....

in ancient times, short-necked geese were like ducks. The difference was the geese had white feathers, while the duck was tanned. There was a reason that made the geese's neck become long like now.

At that time, a chicken, duck, goose, bird, a dragonfly, turtle, crab and crocodile lived in a neighbourhood and always lived in harmony. They often chatted at the river bank where the crocodile lived. The place was shady and comfortable.

One afternoon, they were chatting after working all day long. However, they did not see the crab. They suspected something bad happened to him. No one knew. The crab usually said goodbye if it wanted to go far.

They decided to look for it before nightfall. They split up. The goose had to find the crab in every hole, both ground and large trees holes. Every time is looked.

into holes, its neck grew even longer. Its friends were shocked knowing what had happened to the goose's neck. However, the goose stayed calm. It even felt happy for what it had.

The search lasted several days. The crab was found willowing in a brackish area. However, due to the search, the goose's neck became long and could not shorten again.

 

Why did the animals love chatting at the river bank?
