Comparison/Contrast Paragraphs. Unit 6.

Both beach and mountain are good places for going on holiday. In these places you can enjoy fresh air and have a good a time with your friends. Likewise, you can be in contact with the nature what is something marvellous if you want to relax and forget daily life. Many activities can be done: hiking, swimming, cycling... You can train yourself if you are going for a marathon, or if you want to do some sport.

However, there are some marked differences. Mountain is usually colder than beach is. In the beach you can play with the sand, enjoy the water and a sunny day. In contrast, in the mountain you can go hiking or going for a walk in a different atmosphere: surrounded by trees and plants. 

Introduction/Conclusion. Unit 10.

Introduction: Currently, less and less people are getting married, according to a recent research done by Northwestern's University. Moreover, it explains that the rate of divorces is growing. However, it also says that married couples are more united than they were in the past. Society has changed and also its mentality with regard to the marriage. Nowadays, many people claim that it is something antiquated.

Conclusion: To summarize, the mentality of society has changed more than what we might thing compared to the existing fifty years ago. Hence, less people are getting married and more are divorcing. Even though many people says it is something antiquated, for me, it is a beautiful tradition which should be kept.

For and against. Unit 6.

In those pictures I show my reasons and my beliefs with regard to some aspects and issues which were discussed in class.

Gun ownership.                      

Globalization and changing your name.

Theatre.

Theatre is one of my passions. Not acting, but going to the theatre and watch a comedia or a drama or whatever is something I really enjoy.

Last week I went to the theatre, and I saw a play called: "TOC TOC". It was about a a psychologist who has a medical consulation. There, all the patients are waiting to the doctor. Nonetheless, nobody appears, only the secretary who told the patients that the psycho had had some complications. During the delay, they began to tell each other their problems and thoughts. 

This play was a comedia and it was really funny: all the auditorium was laughing and clapping without stopping. As all the plays, it has a moral. In this case was: not to be only concentrated on yourself and think about the rest. Avoid being selfish. 

Finally, I have to say that dispite this crisis, we have to support the art. It doesn't matter if it's the music, the theatre or painting. It is wonderful to see people acting in a scenery, trying to make many people happy with their job.
