The Lost World by Sir Arthur Conan Doyle.

(This is essay  by my brother).

Edward Malone, a reporter for Daily Gazette, wanted to impress a woman named Gladys Hugerton by doing something extraordinary. He came to his editor McAedle to ask for some "special" assignment. McArdle tasked Malone with interviewing professor George Challenger, who was famous for hating journalists and being close to a "mad scientist". That interview ended in a fight after which, however, Challenger told his story. He said that he visited a place in South America no one has been in, and that he saw dinosaurs there. That's why no one believed him and he had such a bad reputation. Challenger also planned another expedition there to show that he told the truth. On this expedition, he took: a skeptical professor Summerlee; Lord John Roxton, a famous adventure; and Malone.

During this expedition, these men, while, not believing at first, started being more open-minded after a pterodactyl stole their lunch. Later on, they saw many more dinosaurs, as well as strange and aggressive ape-men. In order to defeat them, the expedition joined forces with the native tribe they met there calling themselves "the Accala". With the help of the Accala, the expedition managed to be victorious.

And so, after a long expedition, the men returned home. And still nobody believed, although they had to take their words back when the expedition showed the peope a live pterodactyl.

Malone, now famous, returned to Gladys, only to find out that she married another man. Now nothing kept him home, so Malone joined Lord Roxton's next voyage to "the Lost World".

Plants in our life.

Plants are part of planet Earth. They grow in soil. People can use different plants for different things. For example, make paper from wood. Others can be grown and eaten. They are alive and composed of cells.

Animals eat plants, too. Plants start the food chain. They usually grow in gardens or in fields.

Flowers can be made into a beautiful bouquet. Flowers can have very different colors and shapes. Rose is one of the most beautiful flowers.

Also flowers can be artificial. They are made from fabric. Such bouquet can live forever in your house. But artificial flowers do not have a pleasant smell.
