The Story of Coca-Cola

A popular beverage that is sold all over the world is Coca-Cola. A doctor who lived in Atlanta, Georgia, invented it in 1886. Dr. John Pemberton, who was also a pharmacist, first sold Coca-Cola as a nerve tonic, stimulant, and headache medicine. The name of the dark brown syrup that made people feel better was "Pemberton's French Wine Coca." Later someone added soda water to the syrup and it became the beverage that is our modern Coca-Cola. The first part of the name (coca) comes from cocaine, which was one of the original ingredients. The second part of the name (cola) comes from kola nut, which is still an ingredient. The original formula has changed over the years. Of course Coca-Cola no longer contains cocaine, which is an illegal drug but it still tates delicious. The formula for Coca-Cola is a secret that is carefully guarded.

My Love-Hate Relationship with Camping

There are two reasons I love camping and two reasons I hate camping. First of all, living outdoors for a few days refreshes my mind and renews my spirit. After I have spent a few days in nature, I feel free and happy again. Second, camping brings my family closer together because everyone helps plan the trip, set up the campsite, and prepare the meals. On the other hand, sometimes I hate camping. The first reason is I don’t sleep well because I hate to sleep on the hard ground. When I get up in the morning, I can hardly move. My back hurts and muscles ache. The second reason I hate camping is that we always forget something important. We forgot to bring our tent last year, so we had to sleep in the open. I didn’t sleep at all because I am afraid of snakes and bugs. If I see a snake or a bug, I am frozen with fear. Why do I continue to go camping when I have such a love-hate relationship with it?

Soccer

Soccer is truly the world's most popular sport. Since the game began in England about 150 years ago, it has spread to every corner of the globe. Millions of people go to soccer stadiums to watch their favorit team while millions more watch on television. The first reason for soccer's popularity may be its economy and simplicity. Anyone can afford to play soccer because it doesn't require expensive equipment. Also, it has simple rules. Soccer is the number one sport in most of the world. It is not the most popular sport in North America because ice hockey is the favorite in Canada, and American foot ball is the favorit in the United States. However, soccer is gaining new players and fans in those countries, too.
