18. I wanted to talk about this because it’s an interesting
item. The Wonders of the World are very beautiful and
important. If we don’t know anything about them, we
won’t understand their importance and we won’t
protect them what it’s necessary as they took part in
the history of human beings.
It has been really funny and interesting to do this work
so I didn’t know so much about this and now I know
more and I’m happy about it.
