PLANNING THE PERFECT PARTY

There's no better way to have fun than by throwing a party. Everyone loves to spend time with their friends and have fun in a relaxed atmosphere. However, as anyone who has ever thrown a party will know, a lot of hard work goes into hosting a party. The following tips will help you plan the perfect party.

Parties need to be planned carefully. Make sure you allow yourself plenty of time to prepare for your party. Make a list of everything you need to do and be organized, because things can get very busy as the day of your party gets closer.

If you are serving food at your party, choose foods which go together. You could pick a theme for your party and make food which fits that theme for example, Mexican or Chinese. Make sure you don't serve foods which are going to make a mess. Remember, you are the one who will have to clean it up the next day!

Written invitations are a great idea, especially if you can make them fun or different. Don't forget to put important information like the time, date and address on your invitations. Tell your guests when the party starts and when it will end. Also, let them know if they should wear a certain type of clothes (e.g. a fancy dress).

You can use decorations, lighting and music to create the perfect party atmosphere. Choose your favourite music and play it in the background as your guests arrive. It is a good idea to remove your television if it is in the party area. You can also replace some of your light bulbs with coloured lamps.

CARS

Can you imagine our world without cars? People laughed at the first cars. They were slow and noisy. Two German engineers, Daimler and Benz, made the first car with a gasoline engine in 1885. It had only three wheels. From about 1905, companies like Rolls-Royce started to make cars. They were very expensive because people made each car by hand. Then, in 1913, the Ford Motor Company started to make their Model T car in a special factory. Ford's factories produced cars quickly, so the Model T was less expensive than other cars. By 1927, there were more than 15 million Model Ts on the roads.

Gasoline in the USA was cheap and people wanted to travel long distances, so by 1950, American cars were large. In Europe and Asia, drivers preferred small cars that were better in city traffic.

Sports cars, like the Bugatti Veyron, are low. This helps the car to go, fast because air can move easily over it. The Bugatti Veyron goes faster than 400 kilometers per hour. It costs 1,5 million American dollars, and the people who make the, cars have only sold a few hundred since they started to produce them in 2005.

The Peel P50 is the smallest car in the world. It was first made in 1963. It is 134 centimetres long and 99 centimetres wide. Its top speed is 61 kilometres per hour.

The world's longest car is the American Dream. It has 24 wheels and it is 30,5 metres long!

It has a swimming pool and a helicopter can land on it.
