There was an important historic event in 1942: Christopher Columbus and his ships were in the "New
World". It was the discovery of America. But that was a tragedy for the real first Americans: the Indians.
North American Indians were in that vast land a long time before the white man. They were free and
happy at that time. There were many different Indian tribes or nations, all with their rich culture, their old
traditions, their different languages and customs.
Five hundred years after Columbus, where can you see Indians in North America? Their homes are on
Indians reservations now, in only two percent of that continent. There were about six million Indians living
there before Columbus. There are about two hundred thousand Indians living in America today.

Texto: Nature
Nature is beautiful and a source of life.
Observing Nature attentively, we note that every being depends on the others.
Nature gives everything to man. Why destroy it? It’s necessary to love and protect Nature so that it
can be a source of life for ever.
The Earth doesn’t belong to man; it’s man that belongs to the Earth. The Earth is our mother, the
rivers are our brothers and the forests are our sisters.
The authorities must find means to avoid pollution and preserve Nature.
And you, too!
