The City of my Dream
Since young age, I have always wondered what the perfect place for living would be like. Now, I can say that I have a clear vision of the city of my dreams. First of all, it should be situated in a sunny part of our planet and have great weather conditions all year round. Secondly, there should be neither crime nor any violence there. Only good and kind people can reside in such city. Life can be much easier and nicer if everyone is loving and understanding. In the city of my dreams people will live in peace and quiet, without any worries and fears. This city will have excellent roads, cheap stores, many beautiful parks and playgrounds for kids, several entertainment centers and else. The population of the city will be neither too rich, nor poor. People will live equally well. Older people will be respected and taken care of. The streets will be clean and safe. There will be no homeless animals in the city of my dreams. Another important condition is to have a loyal government. People in the city of my dream will never be in a hurry and they will do only the jobs they like. However, I certainly understand that it’s just my dream, I really hope that at least some of the mentioned qualities will come true in the future.

History contains a lot of stories about people who should have been a little bit more careful. In 1576 the explorer Sir Martin Frobisher sailed to the north of Canada trying to find a way to Asia. Unfortunately, he (find) COULDN’T FIND it, but during the voyage, his men landed on Baffin Island as they(look for) HAD TO LOOK FOR food and shelter. Here he discovered some rocks which he thought contained gold. When he returned to England he showed the piece of rock to people who agreed that it was gold, and Frobisher returned to the island with a larger ship. It was a difficult journey, as the ship (avoid)COULDN’T AVOIDhuge icebergs. On the island there were polar bears which (kill) SHOULD HAVE KILLED a man quite easily. And Frobisher was worried that someone else would get to the gold first. Perhaps he (tell) SHOULDN’T HAVE TOLD so many people about his discovery, he thought. But he (worry) DIDN’T NEED TO WORRY about his secret. He found the place again, and his men (work)COULD WORKin the freezing weather to dig for the gold. They returned to England again, and this time he (stop) DIDN’T HAVE TO STOP his discovery from becoming generally known. More and more people wanted to go to Baffin Island, and the next year the ships came back with hundreds of tonnes of gold. Unfortunately, this is where things went wrong. When Frobisher tried to sell the gold, he discovered that perhaps he (show)NEEDN’T HAVE SHOWED it to more people in the first place. The people he had showed it to had been wrong. They(tell) COULDN’T TELL the difference between gold and iron pyrite, a compound of iron and sulphur. Everyone laughed at Sir Martin and his men, and he (admit) HAD TO ADMITthat he had made a mistake.
