Beating brain tumours with a scorpion sting paint

Right now the only way to remove a cancer is surgery. But it is very dificult. Dr Jim Olson, a paediatric oncologist and researcher at the Fred Hutchinson Cancer Research Centre in Seattle, discovered a revolutionary technique, thanks to the bite of a scorpion. Tumour Paint is a drug that attaches to cells, making them glow. So, for the surgeons it is easier to distinguish the tumor from healthy cells. 

In my opinion, scientific progress is very important to find solutions to serious diseases.

Robots: Can we trust them with our privacy?

Wright is a scientist who is preparing an experiment with a robot called Noa. They want to introduce this robot between ordinary people and other places to see how people react. Noa has a face recognition program that has information on many things.

This experiment is a project called Human And Robots in Public Spaces. Hollywood has always said that the danger of robots is their intelligence and strength. But scientists say the robots of the future will live peacefully with humans. The only bad thing would be our privacy.

In my opinion, I would not like robots to have information about us. But I find it interesting that experiments are being done, to see how people react.

Only missing two weeks of school. But this two weeks the high school are the worst of the course because we have exams every day, and we're a little stressed. I want to pass it as quickly as possible. This year has gone very quickly. The summer has finally arrived. This summer I will work as every year at my grandmother's bakery. I would also focus on research work. but above all, I want to take the maximum time. But especially I want to be with friends, going to the beach, by the pool ... 

I hope to spend a good summer.

Dear Mr.Obama,

I'm writing to you to work as au pair in you house, like last year.

My plan, if you agree, is to teach your daughters another language, Spanish. I would stay in the U.S.A all July and the last fifteen days I will stay in your house.

This year I finished the Batchillerat and the next year, I'm going to start university in the U.S.A or Spain. If you would like to talk to me before I go there, we can have a video chat (InternationalSchoolIdioms@gmail.com).

I look forward to hearing from you.

Yours sincerely.

Internation school/ Jana, Adriana and Mar.

OPINION: HAPPINESS = MORE MONEY?

A lot of people think that happines is buying with money, more money and think it is the same as happiness. In my opinion, we spend too much time shopping and spending money.
If people spent less time working and had more free time, they could spend time with their friends and family and be happy. 

Fistly, people would have less money to buy things they don't need.

Secondly, people have more free time to travel around the world, and we have the things we most like.

In conclusion, people would be happiner, if they worked less and enjoyed more the life.

PINEAPPLES

This summer season will be a new fashion, stamping pineapples. As for boy as for girl. It's a style very summery because it is colorful and fresh. I like this style and colors the color white with yellow and green to pineapple combine very well. It is very modern, youthful and different. It is a style of street and beach. I think it will have much success among young people.
