The dangers of trailers
It’s doesn’t mean that you are a good driver if you can dodge the stupid people driving around you. The only situation that worried the writer when driving is when he is towing something behind.
During towing a trailer, the driver is exposed to too many accidents. Probably the wheels will collapse or they can come off the hubs no matter how strong the vehicle is.
The risk when towing is due to the trailer not the vehicle itself. One day the writer rented a trailer and he was driving at night. When he got out of his car he smelled something was burning. He found that the hubs had been destroyed. After that he called the owner and told him what happened and the owner was too sad. That was a small story about the writer.

• Article title: Tow No! - OR – Life’s A Hitch.

Natural paradise gets protection
Part 1 Summary
The Hajar Mountains in Fujarah are home to the Wadi Wurayh. There is one team which started to recognize the place and to think how we can protect this beautiful area. Then there are some problems there. The first problem is how we save the plants and animals. After that they started to develop the area after they received an order from the ruler but there is nobody who will sponsor this project. So we need a lot of money to build a center. Finally this area in Fujairah is one of the best areas in the UAE.
Part 2 Main Idea
• The Wadi Warayah protected area will be setup so it meets international standards.
• Industrial development and quarrying are threats to this area.
Part 3 Comment
I think we must think about this to protect everything in it, because this is an area we can’t find everywhere.
