OPINION ESSAY

WE HAVE ALMOST LEARNT TO RESPECT OUR WORLD?

News keep talking about poverty, hunger, global warming...but nobody seems to have the answer to solve them. I believe that a lot of poeple are too proud about themselves and they only thing with themselves. They don't thing about the world where they are living and they don't know that one day it can be finish before nature itself finishes it, because of us.

In my opinion the politicians should be more responsibles and not only should think about their money because, there are people who die of hunger. Also there are diseases due to pollution and waste because the rich countries spend money on new tecnologies, so they help about destroying the planet and they create extinction, waste, desertifications, deforestation...

I thing the main problem is money because if money didn't exist men wouldn't want it and maybe all of us would respect a little bit more the world because we wouldn't manufacture too many cars, factories...
But the solution isn't having a lot of money because it's impossible, but I know that all of us can do something to improve all these problems. For example: if we take a bus and not a car, we would help to do less contamination and then, we would be able to reduce global warming.

In conclusion as you have seen, I don't agree with the sentence which says that we do concern about the world, on the contrary, we are destroying it.

My opinion about my second oral presentation.

Again when I was speaking, I was thinking that all which I was saying was wrong and nothing had sense. Later when I finished my part of our oral presentation I thought that because of me the teacher was going to lower the note to Robin. This sensation lasted until the day I saw some notes. JEJEJ! Then, I was better.
Days later, when I downloaded the oral presentation's video and I did the transcription I saw that it wasn't bad.

We used some attractive resources. We used a power point which had a lot of pictures for people to pay attention and interest on what we are talking about. Also in the end we showed a video of a typical Australian dance. I did some movements to indicated some concret pictures, that I was refering at the moment. I didn't read from my notes but some moments in concretly I did because I was nervous, more than the first oral presentation, so I sometimes forgot some words. When I was talking I tryed to look at the people that surround me but not all the time I did. I organized my ideas in a chronological order. I introduced some markers and maybe some information new for someone. For example I think that everybody learned something new, including I did. I learnt that the water there spins clock wise that's what Gemma told us. This time I didn't look for some words in a dictionary because my partner is an English boy and when I didn't understand something he told me the meaning. I didn't used any sentence liker. I knew how pronunce all my words and I checked it with Robin, but when I started to talk in front of the class I was very very nervous and I didn't pronunce well some words. Finally I saw that my tone of voice wasn't monotone and I talked in a fluid continuum more or less.

In my next oral presentaion I will control my nerves and I will try to pronounce better.

I think that my mark will be an eight point five.

MY OPINION ABOUT THIRTEEN AND THE SECRET DIARY OF ADRIAN MOLE.

I think that thirteen is a hard film but really it's okey for the young people to watch it because in this way a lo of teenagers maybe, they want be like Tracy or Evy. The problem starts at Tracy's house with the education taht her mum gives her. I don't mean that the mum didn't try to be a good mother but she can't do it because she has a lot of problems and worries. Also the father is only worried about his job and he doesn't know anything about his sun and his daughter. She wants to be in fashion and she wants to be good-looking so the boys will look at her. After all Tracy doens't feel good about herself, she is insecure and a weak person and the mum's boyfriend doesn't like her.
All of these changes Tracy, starts going out with bad companies and she finishes by taking drugs, doesn't study, cuting herself... I can't understand how her mum didn't realise what Tracy was going through.

Adrian Mole is very different because he is infantile and the only thinh they have in common is that the parents are seppareted. Adrian Mole has a stronger character than Tracy and he doens't mind care about his problems.

Finally in my opinion the book was boring and I didn't like it because it didn't find it funny. The film was very good but I think that in the end there was something missing.

THE EMAIL.

Hi Gemma!

Well, you know how my summer has been.
I have been working all summer in a shop (Llar del Nadó) in Figueres.
I started to work there when the school didn't finish yet and I finished it on last saturday.
At the weekend I usually went to Empuriabrava for visit my boyfriend. Or another days I went to the beach but three times only. I haven't gone out to the parties. It has been very boring.
The only thing that I have done is go to the Medievals.

See you!

Two murders!.

Fifty years ago, there was a man who lived in a mountain. He was a woodcutter and he was a little crazy. His name was Frederic and he went to the town once a week. The people who knew him, thought that he was alone, unhappy and needed somebody to talk of something. In the town all was normal. There lived six families.

One day Frederic went to town at night. It was rainning and there was a strong wind. All was dark and he was afraid. Earlier he had phoned a friend to ask him if he could spend the night in his house but nobody answered. After that, Frederic decided to go to the friend's house and he descovered that the friend had been killed. Immediately Frederic started shouting and crying so the neighbours opened their windows to know what was happening there. As soon as they saw Frederic, they went to help him. He spoke to them all.

The days went by and the town's people found Frederic hanging from a tree. They thought that he had hung himself but the truth was that he had benn murdered.

The question was: Who had murdered Frederic and his friend?

As yet the police haven't found the assasin. Maybe now he is living in your city!.
