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).

Beauty and Love

by Andrew Young
Beauty and love are all my dream;

They change not with the changing day;
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.

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 awake-
ned. 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.

Dear Aunt Louise,

How are you? I am writing to you in English because its good for me
to practise a lot!

and beautiful, but its very expensive).
My classmates are from different countries: France, Spain, Germany,
and Italy. My teachers English, her name is Joanna Fowler. I think
she is from London, but Im not sure. She is tall, blonde and has got
blue eyes. Shes a good teacher.
I get up at 07:00 every day and I take the tube to the centre. The journey takes
25 minutes.
My classes start at 09:00. I have five hours of English a day. I usually arrive home at 6 p.m.
When I get home, I do my homework and watch television. English television is very good. I
normally go to bed at 11 p.m.
Write to me soon.
Lots of love,
Jorge
