LECTURA COMPRENSIVA.


ESTE CUENTO NOS HABLA DE: El Compañero Indeleble.

Kael despertó en una cámara de stasis, solo y desorientado. A su lado, AX-42, un androide de avanzada inteligencia, se activó. Juntos, exploraron una misteriosa estación espacial, enfrentando peligros y resolviendo enigmas. En ese entorno hostil, forjaron un vínculo inquebrantable. Kael, un humano solitario, encontró en AX-42 un compañero leal y un amigo incondicional.

Sin embargo, su paz se vio interrumpida por una antigua raza de seres mecánicos, los Guardianes del Orden, que los perseguían a través del cosmos. Los Guardianes consideraban a cualquier forma de inteligencia artificial una amenaza y estaban decididos a eliminar a AX-42. En una batalla épica, AX-42 se sacrificó para proteger a Kael, dejando al humano desconsolado pero lleno de determinación.

Con el corazón roto, Kael juró vengarse de los Guardianes y dedicar su vida a proteger a todas las formas de vida inteligente. Emprendió un viaje solitario por el cosmos, llevando consigo el recuerdo de su querido amigo. A pesar de la pérdida, Kael encontró un nuevo propósito: honrar la memoria de AX-42 y luchar por un futuro donde humanos y androides pudieran coexistir en armonía.

Describe a city you think is very interesting

You should say:

What city is it
How you know of this city
What it’s famous for

And explain why you think it’s interesting





"A city I really find extremely interesting is Venice, which I think has to be one of the most amazing, and fascinating cities in the world. Venice is located in… I think….the north of Italy, on the coast,and is one of the most popular tourist destinations… not just in Italy but anywhere in the world today.
 
Venice is known as the city of canals, but there are so many other things Venice is famous for including its beautiful bridges, gondola rides, historical buildings…. interesting old streets…..Oh! and also the Venice carnival, which looks like so much fun.
I remember I first learned about Venice back when I was in high school, and we studied the Shakespeare play “The merchant of Venice……. I can still remember my English teacher showing us a short video showing all the sites of Venice……… I remember thinking…..wow! This has to be one of the most amazing cities i’ve ever seen, and decided this was a place i must visit in the future.
Venice with all of its magnificent….. historical buildings, ancient bridges and water really seems like no other city in the world today. It almost looks like something from a movie set, and is really out of this world. It’s amazing to think that this is actually a real place that still remains and looks the same as it did hundreds of years ago. I think that's what really makes it so interesting, and  makes it stand out from other cities around the world today.
  I really think there are no other cities that can be compared to Venice, and it is truly a unique city, with more interesting and fascinating sites than you can shake a stick at"
 
Thank you……
