Imagine

Imaxina que non hai paraíso
É fácil se o intentas
Sin inferno por debaixo de nos
Só un ceo sobre nós.
Imaxina a toda a xente,
vivindo polo presente.
Imaxina que non hai países
Non é dificil de facer
Nada porque matar ou morrer
E tampouco relixións
Imaxina que toda a xente,
vivindo en paz.
Podrás dicir que son un soñador
pero non son o único
Espero que algún día te unas a nós
e o mundo sexa un só.
Imaxina que non hai posesións
Eu fagóo si ti podes,
sin necesidade de fames
Unha irmandade de homes,
Imaxina a todo o mundo
Compartindoo tod.
Poderás dicir que son un soñador
pero non son o único.
Espero que algún día te unas a nós
e o mundo vvia como un só.

Children´s life in Victorian´ times
In the industrail revoliution the children work in factories and coal mines.

Children in mines:
Some children pushed trucks of coal along mine tunnels. They were called 'putters'.
'Trappers' opened and shut wooden doors to let air through the tunnels. A trapper boy sat in the dark, with just a small candle, and no-one to talk to.
Some children started work at 2 in the morning and stayed below ground for 18 hours. Children working on the surface, sorting coal, at least saw daylight and breathed fresh air.

Children in factories:
Factories were noisy. People had to shout above the rattle and hiss of machinery. They breathed air full of dust, oil and soot. Iron and steel works got so hot that workers dripped with sweat. Flames and sparks lit up the sky darkened by smoke from factory chimneys. They do the same work than the adults

Explain the relationship between transport, distance and costs
The transports of road are more expensive to long distances and more cheap to short distances therefore are more used over short distances.
The transports of rail have the same characteristics that the transports of road but are used in average distances.
The transports of water are more cheap in long distances and more expensive in short distances, therefore are used in long distances.
The pipeline transports are more cheap in very long distances and more expensive in short distances, therefore are always used in long distances.
