Soon people were building railroads and steam engines all over the world. Because the steam engine did the work that animals used to do, people called them "Iron Horses". Peter Copper was a rich american businessman He owned a lot of land near the bottomhal and ohio railroad. He wanted the railroad to be successful. He built his own steam engine to drive along the railroad. Most people traveled in coaches drawn by houses. A coach line challenged Peter Copper to a race. He worked hard to make the train go faster. Soon, he was catching up with the horse. He was going to win the race. Sudeley The day of the race came At first, the horse was winning the race.

The young man, who is very much in love, refuses to give up without a fight. The conflict between the young man and the girls father is what makes the story interesting. It forces the main characters to take action and through their action we see them as they really are. In the good story, the main character changes.

Nature recycles its resources. Water, for example, evaporates and rises as visible drops to form clouds. The same water returns to the earth as rain or snow. The rain that falls today is actually the same water that fel l on the land 70 million years ago. Today, the earth is in trouble. Factories pour dirty water into our rivers, many fish and water becomes unheal thy for people to get sick.
