There's so much natural beauty in this area.

There's nothing I like better than the beauty and fragance of flowers!

The town's beauty makes it popular with tourists. (la belleza del pueblo lo hace popular entre los turistas)

I closed the door because there were a lot of mosquitos.

We ran because mosquitos were flying towards us.

I woke up because a mosquito was flying around my head.

When did this ancient castle get build?

We discovered an ancient village in the forest.

Pompeii is an ancient city full of beautiful buildings. People still travel there to see its beauty today.

The United States is full of natural beauty. The rivers and mountains there are so beautiful.

He needed a map because he was always getting lost.

I smiled because we were finally reaching the end.

The jungle is the natural home to many wild animals.

My neighbors are so messy! There's a pile of garbage in front their house. Ew!

A pile is a group of things lying on each other.

If it starts raining in the forest, you should stand underneath a tree.

The bird was looking for bugs underneath the rocks, when it heard an unusual noise.

I just saw a mouse underneath that pile of leaves.

There may be a snake underneath that pile of rocks. (puede que haya una serpiente debajo de...)

The birds were hidden among the leaves.

What's that moving among the leaves over there? I think it's a little mouse!

Among the leaves we saw a big ugly snake.

We found a watch among the rocks on the hill.

The rain was making a gentle sound on the roof. (suave)

A gentle rain was starting to fall in the village.

It was a beautiful day, and a gentle wind was blowing. 

That sounds so nice and relaxing.

The butterflies were flying around the garden.

I didn´t like that beach. Next time let's go somewhere else. (to a different place)

Is this a good place to have a picnic, or should we go somewhere else?

Next weekend, let's go hiking somewhere else.

Next summer, can't we go camping somewhere else?

Sure! I'd like to try somewhere different.

Look at how much dirt got in your backpack. (entró)

I got a lot of dust in my nose yesterday.

Be careful when you take an expensive camera on you camping trip. You might get dust or dirt in it!

I felt nervous because the GPS wasn't working.

Though the GPS wasn't working I reached the town. (Aunque el GPS...)

I checked the GPS when my dad wasn't looking at me.

I checked the GPS because the map wasn't helping.

How did you get home after you got lost?

I sated close to the path and followed it  home.

I stayed close to my dad while we were fishing.

I stayed close to the trees when it was raining.

I saw the lake when I was driving across the valley.
