Manchester () is a city and metropolitan borough in Greater Manchester, England, with a population of 530,300 . It lies within the United Kingdom's second-most populous urban area, with a population of 2.55 million. Manchester is fringed by the Cheshire Plain to the south, the Pennines to the north and east and an arc of towns with which it forms a continuous conurbation. The local authority is Manchester City Council.

The recorded history of Manchester began with the civilian settlement associated with the Roman fort of "Mamucium" or "Mancunium", which was established in about AD 79 on a sandstone bluff near the confluence of the rivers Medlock and Irwell. It was historically a part of Lancashire, although areas of Cheshire south of the River Mersey were incorporated in the 20th century. Throughout the Middle Ages Manchester remained a manorial township but began to expand "at an astonishing rate" around the turn of the 19th century. Manchester's unplanned urbanisation was brought on by a boom in textile manufacture during the Industrial Revolution, and resulted in it becoming the world's first industrialised city.

Manchester achieved city status in 1853. The Manchester Ship Canal opened in 1894, creating the Port of Manchester and linking the city to the sea, to the west. Its fortunes declined after the Second World War, owing to deindustrialisation, but the IRA bombing in 1996 led to extensive investment and regeneration.

A man named Albert had the choice to build a tree house, a garage, a desk, or a cabinet. Albert chose to build something big to share with his kid, so he wanted to make a tree house. Albert had to choose what kind of stuff to make the tree house out of. Wood is popular, but splinters would hurt his son. Metal is very strong, but it would also be very hard to use. Plastic is not expensive, but it also bends a lot. The last choice was to give up, but Albert really wanted to do this for his son. It would make him very happy. Albert ended up choosing wood, as it was the most popular choice. Albert went to the store to buy nails, tools, and wood, but forgot to buy glue. He had to go back there and he finally had everything he needed. He got started and it was very hard. One hour went by, then two, then three, then four. Finally, on the fifth hour, Albert finally finished the tree house. His son ran out and jumped into his dad's arms. They both looked at it, and Albert's son gave his dad a kiss for all the hard work he had done. Albert looked at the tree house he had built and was very happy. He had done it all by himself, and he was happy to see his son being so happy as well. They would have a long summer of playing together in the tree house that Albert built. It was one of the best tree houses ever!

1. Who had a choice to make?

Warner Bros. Entertainment Inc. (previously incorporated as Warner Brothers Pictures, Inc. and colloquially known as Warner Bros. and Warner Bros. Pictures) is an American entertainment company that is a division of Time Warner and is headquartered in Burbank, California. It is one of the "Big Six" major American film studios.

Warner Bros. is a member of the Motion Picture Association of America (MPAA).

The company's name originated from the four founding Warner brothers (born "Wonskolaser" or "Wonsal" before Anglicization): Harry, Albert, Sam, and Jack Warner.

Jack, the youngest, was born in London, Ontario. The three elder brothers began in the movie theater business, having acquired a movie projector with which they showed films in the mining towns of Pennsylvania and Ohio. In the beginning, Sam and Albert Warner invested $150 to present "Life of an American Fireman" and "The Great Train Robbery". They opened their first theater, the Cascade, in New Castle, Pennsylvania, in 1903.
