Our atmosphere didn't have as much oxygen or carbon dioxide yet as now because plants were just beginning. The seas were dominated by a big variety of scorpions--sea scorpions. Some were as big as three meters in length. Fish had not yet evolved. Later, much of the land was covered in forests--very primitive types of trees that don't exist anymore. All these trees from that time--the Carboniferous Period are the coal we have today. We also experienced several moments of crisis and mass extinctions. One was during the late Permian Period. It lasted around 1 millions years (this crisis)...

Today's topic is a subject you enjoy studying this semester. You should say what the subject is and what it is about. You should say why you enjoy it, and what you've learned.

He is a professor of Linguistics who has taught Linguistics and Education departments in the US. He received his PhD in 1972, and has been prolifically active in Linguistics Language Acquistion since then having published over 400 articles.
