MAN ON THE EDGE

I think that the best ending to this chapter would be that the wife of the man appeared in the hotel. She could convince him not to jump from the balcony. In this way, it is possible that the man do not want to die because he is frustrated because of the problems whith his wife. They had a hard discussion and he decided to commit suicide. In my opinion, his wife is the only person who could solve it, so the best ending would be that she told him that that is not a good option and he finally would accept and he does not wanted to die. Therefore we would have a happy ending.

PROBLEM/SOLUTION COMPOSITION

I am going to explain why poverty exists. Today there are many countries which suffer poverty. Lots of children die every day because their families are so poor and they can not feed them. The main place where poverty exists is Africa. Ethiopia is a very poor country. People do not have any drinkable water to drink. Although there are some charities which give help to the third world, this is not enough.

I think that the best idea to solve these problems is awareness all people and try to help these people who are suffering poverty. On the other hand, we have to solve the problem whith drinkable water and food. In this way, we could feel better ourselves and help people who need it. I think that the problem is that we are too selfish and it is not comfortable to help people.

COMPARATIVE AND CONTRAST PARAGRAPH

Rostropovich and Sex Pistols are very different but they have some things in common too. Rostropovich is an expert in clasical music. In the image, he is playing the cello. In addition, he is wearing a shirt and a tie; he dresses very elegant clothes. He isn't young, he is a mid-age man. He is very concentrated and calmed. On the other hand, the other two boys are experts in punk music. They are dressing casual clothing. They are young people so they are singing very excitated, they look like they were crazy. One of them is singing while the other is playing the guitar. In conclusion, both images represent musicians and they are famous and earn money thanks to their job, but they play and sing very different styles.

EXPERIENCES

I have never had an umpleasant experience but I have suffered from scary situations as for example a road accident or the death of a relative.
Although hard experiences are difficult to forget, I have always managed to survive, thanks to my good health not only physically but also mentally and to my courage.
In addition, I'm usually ready to overcome the hard times in my daily time, any event can become a terrible experience.
However, people are strong enough to face and learn from the good and bad experiences. It's clear that suffering isn't good, on the other hand, as everybody knows there are many lucky people in the world who haven't had shocking experiences.

UNCONDITIONAL BASIC INCOME

Unconditional basic income should be received by every adult in the world. This is a human right, every person have to earn a quantity of money to cover the main expenses every month. The state have to avoid that anyone couldn't live because she or he doesn't have money to eat, drink or dress. This money have to be paid independently of the employment situation. In this way, everyone had a little quantity of money to subsist and there wouldn't be any poverty.

ZOOS. OPINION

First of all, when we think about a zoo, we imagine that there are beautiful animals of all the species. But, are zoos a good place for them? I don’t think so.

On the one hand, in zoos there is a huge breed animal and some zookeepers are very rude with them. They aren’t patient so they treat animals in an inadequate way. For that reason, the animals can become aggressive with the people which are visiting and watching them. Because of this behavior, zookeepers punish the animals and are cruel with them. On the other hand, I think that endangered animals would be better if they were in their birthplace. The problem is that because of habitat destruction many species are endangered. Many studies have demonstrated that endangered animals wouldn’t disappear if they were in their own habitat and environment.

In my opinion, zoos should be for only a few animals. For example, a polar bear must be living in Antarctica and not in a zoo. Global warming is also a reason why this species is endangered. If these animals are in a zoo, they don’t feel comfortable because they aren’t in their own habitat so they look sad and they aren’t receptive to people who go to see them.

PEER RESPONSE

PEER RESPONSE FOR ÁNGELA CAMPOY VALVERDE
BY: ANDREA EGIDOS GARCÍA

Dear Ángela, I'm going to start talking about your topic sentence: I think that it is a good topic sentence because it is the main idea and from this you have written the supporting sentences. In relation to the supporting sentences I think that are good because there is a diversity of arguments. In my opinion the concluding sentence isn't bad because it doesn't  give new ideas, but I think that it isn't too striking. For me a concluding sentence must impact readers. The extension of the text is correct, in that a good paragraph must have approximately among five and ten lines. In general I think you have done a good work! 

DESCRIBE SOMEONE

I want to describe my mother because she is one of the most important people in my life. She is the person who has taken care of me during all my life. She is very funny and I always do a lot of things with her, for example, going shopping, watching series, cooking, etc. We tell the other all our things and problems and she gives me always good advices and helps me a lot. I love how my mum cooks although I'm trying to cook as her. We do delicious cakes, muffins and biscuits, between other things. In short, my mum is the person in whom I trust more because she has never disappointed me.

Extreme sports

It is thought that extreme sports are dangerous but as far as I'm concerned, I think it is a matter of courage. Practicing sports gives you the oportunity not only to get a goal, but also to keep fit. Most people face the daily problems as if they were practicing a dangerous sport. I stopped practicing these dangerous sports because I wasn't strong enough to bear the tiredness. Although I like them, it doesn't make sense to join if you are afraid of heights or depths, besides, neither I have time enough to join a sport center nor money enough to afford it.

Guernica, Picasso

This picture created by the painter Pablo Picasso represents Bombing of Guernica. In the picture we can see the pain and sadness represented by the drawings of the characters. Picasso resigns the colour so as to acentuate the drama. If we look the picture carefully, we can see  desesperate women screaming in pain. We can see also some animals, like a horse, a bird or a bull. In my opinion, all the characters represent a feeling. For example, the women represents the desesperation, the horse represents the inocence, the bull represents the strength and the bird represents the weakness. In short, with this picture Picasso wanted to express the pain and the suffering that people felt when Bombing of Guernica took place.
