A BIRD

              I   want to sleep like a bird

              To hide my beak in  my body

              When the morning comes

             Like to jump  and sing

              Looking for something to eat

             

             When I'm thirsty find a drop of water

            Have a shower in a lake or river

            Build a nest in the woods

            Have a family with many chicks

           

           In my dreams I'm flying

           I'm happy and calm

           I'm sometimes scared and tremble

Learning English has been compulsory in the last decades to access higher education or obtain a better-paid job. Therefore, it is possible to find different courses that allow you to practice the language.

In consequence, the use of technology has become a tool that allows us

Gadgets are the magic wand of today's generation. Their life is dependent heavily on it. They spend most of their time on it, especially for fun and entertainment purposes. In terms of studying, it has replaced books, dictionaries, and even teachers in many ways. Some students prefer reading ebooks to the hard copy version. However, based on my observation, only a few students make the best use of gadgets for studying purposes.

In my opinion, gadgets especially smartphones are analogous to a knif
