Voltando pra Sacramento....A Oeste de Salt Lake City - os Salt Flats. Eram lagos a milhoes de anos atras. Hoje em dia sao vastos "campos" de sal...
Going back to Sacramento...
West of Salt Lake City - the Salt Flats. They used to be large lakes millions of years ago. Today they was large open "fields" of salt!
O Estado de Nevada e o Estado de Utah tem muitas montanhas altas. A paisagem eh estranha pois o tempo todo estamos dirigindo pelo planalto (uns 1.200 metros de altura) e quando voce olha pro lado ve uma montanha enorme - entre 3.000 e 3.500 metros de altura cada uma.The state of Nevada and the state of Utah have lots of tall mountains. The scenery is weird in a way that you are driving thru the flats (at 1.200 meters high) and when you look to your side you see huge mountains on both sides, 3,000 - 3,500 meters high.
Reparem que estava ventando no topo da montanha. A neve em Utah eh tao leve (teor de agua - menos de 5%) que qualquer ventinho a neve parece areia.
Notice that it was windy at the top of the mountain. The snow in Utah is sooo light (less than 5% water content) that even light winds make it look like sand.

For instance in the M1 Tank is a General Electric Turbine engine, how do they measure it's size? Do they do it in liters?. I suggest you write on a technology topic such as a product that relies on existing technology but does not yet exist, that way you could get extra marks for creativity. Maybe write on RFID and its impact on future everyday life.
