In 2010, the FIFA world cup was managed in the South Africa. I am going to tell you about the new mascot for the 2010 FIFA world cup. His name is Zakumi. Zakumi is the mascot for 2010 FIFA world cup. He is a cheerful and sporty leopard. The word "Za" comes from the code of the South Africa and the word "Kumi" means ten in the several African languges. If adding the word "Za" and "Kumi" together, it means welcome in the several African languges. Zakumi was designed by Andries Odendaal, the designer from Cape town in South Africa. Zakumi has the green hair and yellow skin. He wears the T-shirt that types the word "South Africa 2010" and green short trouser. Zakumi has two colours green and yellow because the green and yellow colours of the character match to the South Africa sport uniforms and can also be seen in the South Africa national football team's kit. Zakumi was presented the first time on 22 September 2008. The official slogan of Zakumi is "Zakumi's game is Fair Play".

I read the news in website Google. It's about the highest building in our world. In the past, Taipei 101 was the highest building in our world. But now, it has the new building that is higher than the Taipei 101. The new highest building is Burji Khalifa or the old name is Burj Dubai. It is a skyscraper in Dubai, United Arab Emirates. This buiding was designed by Adrian Smith, the architect of this project and Bill Baker was the chief structural engineer for the project. The name Burj Khalifa comes from name of president of United Arab Emirates, Khalifa bin Zayed Al Nahyan. Burj Khalifa has height 828 m. or 2717 ft. It has 160 habitable floors plus 46 maintenance levels in the spire and 2 parking levels in the basement. Burj Khalifa was builed on 21 September 2004 and the exterior of the building structure completed on 1 October 2009. Now, Burj Khalifa or Burj Dubai is the highest building in the world.
