6.1.7.1 THINK! Compare the
characters in the story. How important
is it for them to find the Emerald City?
Why?
I fell in love with a girl. But the girl lived with an old woman who
didn't want us to marry, so she asked the Wicked Witch of the
East to turn me into a Tin Man with no heart
. I want a new heart
so that I can love her again and marry her."
hope the Great Oz can help you," said Dorothy. “Do you know
how far it is to the Emerald City?"
* don't know how far it is," said the Tin Man, "but I know it is
a dangerous journey."
Just then, they heard a loud roar. A Lion ran out of the forest
and stood in the road in front of them.
"Don't bite Toto!" shouted Dorothy.
"I didn't bite him," he said.
"No, but you wanted to!" said Dorothy. "You're just a coward!"
"I know," said the Lion sadly. "I'm a coward. I'm afraid of
everything. I need some courage.
"Come to the Emerald City with us. Maybe the Great Oz can
help all of us!"
Dorothy and her new friends followed the yellow brick road out
of the forest. After some time, they saw a green light shining in
the distance.
"That's where the Great Oz lives!" said Dorothy.​

I have many friends. I especially like Beata. We study at the same school but we are not classmates. She is 15 years old as I am. My friend is very pretty and kind. She is tall and slender.  She has a round face as everyone has, a bit long nose and big cheerful grey eyes. Her skin is a bit pale but she likes this fact, she doesn't like ruddy faces. She has no freckles. Her forehead is open. I think Beata has a charming smile. Her hair isn't very short but it is not long either. It is straight and blonde. Beata has rich hair.  She is a very honest and decent girl and she is very responsible and reliable. I can tell her any secret, and I'm sure that she never will tell it to anybody, so I trust my Beata. My friend is always ready to help me, because she is helpful and careful. The only thing I do not like that she is too stubborn. 
In my free time I like to walk with her in the Park or to go to the disco. Sometimes we go to the sports complex together to play tennis or basketball.Twice a week Beata and I go to the swimming pool.In bad weather we listen to music, watch movies or just play computer games.
