Sebastian, 15, the youngest person to sail solo
across the Atlantic

I woke up and noticed that I was only 25 kilometers from the end of
my journey. If I’d slept any longer, I’d have hit the rocks, and my boat would
have sunk. At first light, I sailed into Antigua harbor. I jumped off the boat
and almost fell over. It felt strange being on land.
Wednesday
I turned 16 today, and it was time to go home. At the airport, I was
presented with a huge cake that I shared with the other passengers. I looked
down from the plane and thought, “I’ve been sailing across that ocean for more
than three weeks and now it’s taking just a few hours to get home.”

Hollywood
Between 1907 and 1913, a Los Angeles district called Hollywood became
the center of the American movie industry. People loved going to the movies,
and they went to the new movie theaters several times a week. Movie theaters
were usually in the poorer neighborhoods, especially in immigrant districts.
Many of the theater owners themselves were immigrants from Eastern Europe. By
the 1920s, moviegoers all over the world were waiting impatiently for the next
new movie from Hollywood. The movies at this time were silent, so they had
universal appeal: without language, they could be understood everywhere. The
first star of the silent movies was Charlie Chaplin. Movies made huge profits
and created international stars. They changed the way millions of people
thought about the world because they showed them places and ways of life that
they had never seen.

a between 1907 and 1913.
