CELEBRATING NATIONAL HOLIDAYS

THE USA
The USA celebrates
Independence Day
(commonly known as the
4th of July) to
commemorate the
declaration of
independence from Great
Britain in 1776. People
associate Independence
Day with fireworks,
parades, barbecues,
picnics, baseball games
and various other public
and private events
celebrating the history,
government and
traditions of the
United States.
IRELAND
This is the flag of St Patrick. St Patricks flag
represents Ireland. Saint Patrick is the patron
saint of Ireland. He initiated Christianity in
Ireland. Irish people celebrate this festivity
enthusiastically on 17th March and it is known
as St. Patrick s Day. On this day, people wear
a clover (see the picture), the national
emblem. This national day is celebrated
joyfully with a big parade and festival in
Ireland and England. The parade includes
marching bands from Britain, Ireland and
Europe, costumes, community groups,
dancing schools and Irish music.
CHILE
Chile officially proclaimed independence on the
12th February 1818, but Chileans celebrate their
independence from Spain on September 18th.
Celebrations include parades, dancing, music,
drinking and eating traditional Chilean food.
Children and their families usually fly kites
cheerfully. The day after Independence Day,
19th September, is also a national holiday, the
Armed Forces Day. It includes military and naval
parades and events celebrating Chiles military
victories, including independence.
Parades also include huasos, the
Chilean cowboys.

Dear family,
Its incredible. This fabulous experience at The English Village is coming to an end. Yesterday I was
sad and my friends were sad too, but in the evening we were all happy again.
In the morning, we played ball games; some boys and girls played basketball, others played
baseball, and others played football. I played volleyball.
In the afternoon, with the tutors, we participated in a conversation about nature, pollution and
possibilities to recycle litter. I was in a group with Pablo, Carolina and Gonzalo.
In the evening, we relaxed in the common room: some boys and girls played computer games,
others watched TV and read comics, and I started this email to you.
We did so many amusing activities during the day! In the evening, we were not so sad any more.
Well, thats all for now.

A Chilean Legend
Many years ago, there was a young woman called Aauca, who lived in Monte Patria, a
village near the Limar river. All the young men in the village loved and admired beautiful
Aauca, but they did not get her love.
One day, a handsome miner arrived in Monte Patria, searching for gold. When he saw
Aauca, he fell in love with her, and she loved him too. They were very happy, but one night
the miner did not sleep very well because he had a disturbing dream. A mountain spirit
revealed to him the precise location of the gold that he was seeking. He decided to go for the
gold, promising Aauca that he would return.
Aauca waited day after day, but the miner did not return. After some time of terrible grief,
she died. The villagers cried for her and buried her on a rainy day. The next day, the sun
warmed the valley and the spot where the young woman had died was full of beautiful red
flowers. The legend says that Aauca transformed herself into a flower to remain close to
her love. Today, you can still see the aauca flowers bloom between Copiap and the
Quilimar Valley, transforming the pampa with the marvellous phenomenon known as
desierto florido (desert in bloom).

Love stays forever like a stream
That flows, but never flows away.
And beauty is the bright sun-bow
That blossoms on the spray that showers
Where the loud water falls below,
Making a wind among the flowers.

The Guests
Re o

A short story for Halloween

(Anonymous)
A young man and his wife were on a trip to visit his mother. Usually, they
arrived in time for supper, but they had had a late start and now it was
getting dark, so they decided to look for a place to stay overnight and drive
on in the morning.
Just off the road, they saw a small house in the woods. Maybe they rent
rooms, the wife said, so they stopped to ask. An elderly man and woman
came to the door. They didnt rent rooms, they said, but they would be glad
to have them stay overnight as their guests. They had plenty of room, and they
would enjoy the company. The old woman made coffee, brought out some cake,
and the four of them talked for a while. Then, the young couple were taken to
their room. They insisted on paying for the room, but the old man said he would
not accept any money.
The young couple got up early the next morning, before their hosts had awakened. They left an envelope with some money in it on a table near the
front door, to pay for the room. Then, they went on to the next town.
They stopped at a restaurant and had breakfast. When they told the
owner where they had stayed, he was shocked. That cant be, he said.
That house burned to the ground, and the man and the woman who
lived there died in the fire.
The young couple could not believe this, so they went back to the house.
Only now there was no house. All they found was a burned-out shell. They
stood staring at the ruins, trying to understand what had happened. Then,
the woman screamed: in the rubble was a badly burned table, like the one
they had seen by the front door, and on the table was the envelope they had
left that morning.
