DISCOVERING THE KOMODO LIZARD

Two fishermen tied their boat up, hurried out ofthe boat and ran down the streets of their hometown.

'We saw a dragon on Komodo Island,' they shouted.

'We saw a dragon!'

A man heard their shouts. He

was an American named

Douglas Burden. Burden wasa naturalist. A naturalist is a

person who tries to learn, as much as he can aboutthings that live. He believed what the two men said but

there was only one way to find out; He had to go to

Komodo Island himself and brought back one of the

dragons for people to see.

So Douglas Burden and some friends sailed halfway

around the world to the tiny island off the coast of

Indonesia. When they reached the island they were

afraid that the traps and cages they had with them

would not be strong enough toehold the dragons. There

were dragon son the island. They weren't the same

dragons people see in picture books and in children's

stories, but they looked more like dragons than any

other animal Burden had ever seen. They were reallylarge lizard - some of them three metres long and as

heavy as two men. Their legs were short and thick and

on their feet were sharp claws like knives. Although

they did not breathe fire like the dragons in story

books, the lizards had yellow forked tongues, that

moved quickly in and out of their mouths.

It was difficult and dangerous to catch the lizards.

Sometimes the lizards attacked the men. Sometimes the

men had to kill the lizards to save themselves.

Finally, Burden and his friends caught two live

Komodos and put them in cages on their ship. Then

they sailed back to America.

When the two dragons were put into the Brooklyn Zooin New York City, people came from all over America

to see them. Burden, was pleased that so many people

had a chance to see two live dragons.

That was more than 45 year ago. today there are no

more live dragons anywhere in the world except on the

tiny island of Komodo. They still live there.

Dear Wirtomo,

Thank you for your second letter. It is interesting

to read about 'the farming tools used by farmers in your

village.

Unlike the farmers in your village, most farmers

in my country use machines to help them work. The

machines are very useful since most farms are very big.

They use tractors to plow the land. Another machine isa seed drill; it makes holes in the ground, then it drops

seeds into them, it may even drop a smart amount of

fertilizer with each seed. Farmers with very large farm

sometimes use planes to plant seed. They also use

planes to spray chemical onto me rice fields. When

harvest time comes they lads use a machine called a'combine' to cut the rice. It also separates the rice

kernels from the stalks. You know that a 'combine' canharvest more grain than 2000 people working by hand,

Well, that's alt for this time. I am looking forward

to receiving another letter from you.

Yours sincerely,

Jimi Tognolini
