Final evaluation of 1st Bachillerat

In my opinion this blog is a good instrument to practice our domination of the English language and improve writings. But in a personal way, this blog had given to me more knowledge about uses of many words and the general uses of the verbal times. Before begins the blog of this year my use of English was very bad, but now I think I have improve. Moreover, writings are better than last yea, but they aren't the best, I must to improve this aspect. Also, I sometimes copy information in internet, but I put them in cursive. You think that is not the best way to improve my English, I don't think the same, but I respect your opinion and for this I won't do this never more. I know the next year we must do other blog and for this, I will to improve my English this summer going to extra classes.

 

Opinion essay

In my opinion the global pollution in our world is one of the worst problems caused by humans, in the chemical factories and industries. Furthermore, I think the rich developed countries are the main producers of pollution in the blue sea and,of course, in environment.

First, pollution is a problem of many years ago that the environmental groups of people have fought. While, the chemical factories aren't doing anything to avoid this problem, they are killing a lot of species. So, there are many endangered species. In addition, we don't know the future effects that the global pollution will do in our planet: we are killing the Earth with our waste products. For example, the Spanish linxs are at risk of extinction.

Finally, we must improve this situation to bring a better life to the future generations, because our parents had done this with us. One possible way to do this,is shutting down all the chemical and nuclear factories.                                                     

Summer 2013

This summer will be diferent of others because I will get 17 years old. Maybe you thing that I can use this expression with the others six-teen years passed of my life, but NO. I said that because this summer will be the most different in my life because I will do a lot of new thinks that I never have done:

1- I will study idioms during summer to leave Spain after university. Yes, I say that because I think the future in Spain is uncertain for the teenagers. For this, this summer I will study English and French in a language school. Problably, I will study in Figueres with Santiago, a good friend from the city.

2- Travel to England to practise my english. Maybe, if I aprove my notes of bachillerat, I will travel to London with an native family of the capital of England. For this, I will study a lot during the final exams of June to travel. If is not posible, I will upload notes also in June.

3- Do my research project during this summer. In bachillerat, on of the most important thing to do is our research project. But my project is a bit different because I must plant a seed of grass in 22 flower pots, put herbicides on them and look the results during summer. For this, I must break down my laziness and be responsible to do my reserch project.

4- Be more friendly with my friends of my little village. During bachillerat I didn't be friendly with my friends in Vila-sacra because I was studying and playing football. But this summer I want to get back and do things with my friends, for example: go swimming, play summer sports, go to cinema and parties...

 

Film: Iron Man 3

Three weeks ago I went to see the film Iron man 3. I went with two good friends, Gerard and Andriy. I met Gerard since my childhood in the village where we live: Vila-sacra. But I met Andriy only 3 years ago, when I was in ESO. We had decided to look this movie because we are declared fans of Marvel comics. Well, really I don't like much movies about heroes who save a girl with their powers, It's very surrealistic. Now I know the meaning of sci-fi movies. After look the movie, my head was already exploited, music and effects of the movie were to high. One time my head became normal, We went to the bowling of Figueres, at 100m of cinemas (we get tired). At twelve o'clock we returned to Vila-sacra, but before enter to our homes, we went to my home. There, we played games and we ate the leftover sweets of the cinema. We went to sleep at two o'clock. It was a good day with two good friends. We would repeat it!!

Rabbit Adrian's boss rang him up to work in the afternoon immediatly speeded up to his business and come in to the work. At twelve o'clock at night he broke down and he returned home. But in the way he dropped of and he had an accident. He goes to the Rabbit sky.

Breast cancer trials 'failing to save younger patients'

Summary:

A lack of clinical trials aimed at younger breast cancer patients could be partly to blame for longer-term survival problems, experts believe. The study, funded by Cancer Research UK and the Wessex Cancer Trust, analysed nearly 3,000 women under 40 in the UK with diagnosed breast cancer. It found a rapid rise in relapse after five years in younger patients with a certain type of the cancer. Breast cancer is mostly diagnosed in post-menopausal women, although those with a diagnosis under 40 represent fewer than 5% of all breast cancers treated in the UK.

 

 

Opinion:

I think the breast cancer is the most cause of kills in woman's. In my opinion, doctors and experts must research to cure this disease definitely. But especially the breast cancer in young womens because they are the future of the world and they can be an example to other womens to survive front cancers. Unfortunately, this study is bad because It says that the young womens with cancer rise relapse after five years. This type of cancer in the under 40 years old represents under 5% of all cases, but this isn't an excuse to not study the breast cancer in young women. This is a terrible problem to the young and old womens, we must help them. I have read this news on BBC news.

 

Words I have learnt:

 

- Breast cancer: cáncer de mama.

 

- Fewer: menys.



Iraq uncovers al-Qaeda "chemical weapons plot"

Summary:

The authorities in Iraq say they have uncovered an al-Qaeda plot to use chemical weapons, as well as to smuggle them to Europe and North America. Al-Qaeda in Iraq is believed the only offshoot of the Islamist militant network to have used chemical weapons. It detonated a 16 crude chlorine bombs in Iraq between October 2006 and June 2007. Chlorine inhalation made many hundreds of people sick, but no deaths resulting from exposure to the chemical were recorded, US officials said at the time. Instead, the bomb blasts are believed to have caused the fatalities.

 

Opinion:

I think that al-Qaeda has killed a lot of people around the world and It has spread terror in Irak. For this, this new is good because the police of Irak has uncovered chemical weapons to attack Europe and America. If it is true, the police that has done it will be heroes in Irak because they has stopped an global attack. But if the new isn't true, the police must be arrested and be interrogate by the government in Irak, maybe they are assistants of al-Qaeda. I have read the new on BBC news, It is a good news company.    

Words I have learnt:

- Chemical weapons: armas químicas.

- Plot: trama, complot.

- Spread: difondre.
