FRIGHTENING MOMENTS IN SEVILLA
This is a dramatic photo about the exodus, in the state of Louisiana, in the USA. The hurricane Katrina caused a lot of damage and killed a lot of people. The hurricane Katrina arrived at New Orleans last Monday at 3.00 AM, with a devastating strength.
One million people left their houses and looked for safe places: hotels, family houses… In this photo, we can see two people in a car with their personal things in the roof-rank and trunk of their cars. They are looking for a safe place.
As soon as the hurricane Katrina hit New Orleans, the president of the USA travelled to this devastated region. When the president saw this catastrophe, he was stricken and he said: “Oh my God, this is the worst place that I have ever seen.” After that, he hugged the governor of Louisiana.

Christophe. This morning the airplane left Alcorcon but when the airplane was landing one of the wings
broke.
Unfortunately, the man couldn’t unfasten the belt. A few seconds later the airplane crashed against the
floor. Then the firemen arrived there, quickly they got the man out and they also found her daughter.
After that, the firemen moved them to the hospital. As soon as they arrived at the hospital Jack died, but
