A LETTER TO THE KING

            American colonists were not given a chance to participate in government decisions in England.

            The colonists were divided. Loyalists wanted the colonies to stay part of England. Patriots wanted America to be established as an independent nation.

            The Patriots decided that it was time to send a letter to the king. They wanted to make an official declaration, or statement, of independence. Thomas Jefferson wrote the group's ideas into a letter to King George III. Jefferson explained why the colonists believed they no longer had to listen to his authority. By signing the Declaration of independence, the men were risking their lives if the colonies lost the war. They signed it anyway.

A hovercraft is a unique kind of vehicle which has got the ability to travelover any kind of terrain land, water, mud, or ice. It has got special engines that blow air below the vehicle. The pressure of this air is higher than the pressure in the atmosphere and the difference in the pressure lifts the hovercraft above the surface so that it can travel over small obstacles quite easy making it one of the most environmentally friendly vehicles in the world. The hovercraft was first designed in Britain in the 1950s. Today, these vehicles are used all over the world. They are particularly used during disasters, because they can get to places that a boat or a helicopter can't reach. The manufacturers have created hovercraft in various sizes. The smaller models are easy to drive and their designers always have safety in mind.

Tạm dịch: 

Thủy phi cơ là một loại phương tiện độc đáo có khả năng di chuyển trên mọi loại địa hình, đất, nước, bùn hoặc băng. Nó có động cơ đặc biệt thổi không khí bên dưới xe. Áp suất của không khí này cao hơn áp suất trong khí quyển và sự khác biệt về áp suất sẽ nâng thủy phi cơ lên trên bề mặt để nó có thể di chuyển qua các chướng ngại vật nhỏ khá dễ dàng, khiến nó trở thành một trong những phương tiện thân thiện với môi trường nhất trên thế giới. Thủy phi cơ được thiết kế lần đầu tiên ở Anh vào những năm 1950. Ngày nay, những phương tiện này được sử dụng trên toàn thế giới. Chúng đặc biệt được sử dụng trong các thảm họa, bởi vì chúng có thể đến những nơi mà thuyền hoặc máy bay trực thăng không thể tới được. Các nhà sản xuất đã tạo ra thủy phi cơ với nhiều kích cỡ khác nhau. Các mẫu xe nhỏ hơn dễ lái và các nhà thiết kế của chúng luôn quan tâm đến sự an toàn.
