Nuclear power stations work in fossil fuel-burning stations‚ except that a "chain reaction" inside a nuclear reactor makes the heat instead.The reactor uses Uranium rods as fuel‚ and the heat is generated by nuclear fission: neutrons smash into the nucleus of the uranium atoms‚ which split roughly in half and release energy in the form of heat.Carbon dioxide gas or water is pumped through the reactor to take the heat away‚ this then heats water to make steam.The steam drives which drivegenerators

The Sun and the Moon I make my way over the grass‚ which is covered in freckles of frost that make a soft crunch with each tiny step I take.

was a werewolf. There are many hints that indicate that he is a werewolf. She describes his suspicious behavior and she soon discovers that at the dark of the moon he turns back into a human.

Strickland didn’t make impression on people‚ for islanders he was just a “beach-comber”‚ differing from others only that he drew strange pictures. It is impossible to tell that he formed relationships with people
