Chrisrmas Carol

Ebenezer Scrooge is a miserly old man who believes that Christmas is just an excuse for people to miss work and for idle people to expect handouts. He doesn't believe in all of the good cheer and charity that the season promotes, and he makes sure everyone knows it.
That night, Scrooge is visited by the of his former business associate, Jacob Marley -- a man who was as greedy and cold as Scrooge is. Marley warns Scrooge that if he continues to live so selfishly, he will spend eternity wearing the chains that his greed has built.
Three ghosts visit Scrooge successively: the Ghost of Past, the Ghost of Christmas Present, and the Ghost of Christmas Yet to Come. They show Scrooge his error in valuing money over people. Scrooge is frightened by the bleak picture of his life and promises to change his ways.
Scrooge awakes on Christmas morning a new man. He becomes jolly and charitable, and truly turns into the man he promised the ghosts he would become. He carries the spirit of Christmas with him all the year round.

Magnetism is the attraction of a magnet for another object. Magnetic ploes that are alike repeal each other instead magnetic poles that are unlike atract each other. The region of magnetic force around a magnet is known as its magnetic field. Magnetic fields allows magnets to interact without touching. The lines, called magnetic field lines, map out the magnetic field around an object.
The magnetic propriets of a material depend on the structure of its atom. All matter is made up of atoms. An atom is the smallest part of an element that has the proprieties of that element. An element is one of about 100 basic materials that make up of all matter.
