Next year

I only have one month for do the exams of selectivity. I will work this summer, because the next year I go to the university in Girona and I need the money for help a little my parents to pay all the expenses. I will live with two friends in an apartment in Girona. The university is also very expensive and I want to help my parents.

I really want to go live with my friends, because I want to be an independent person and not rely my parents as I have done all my life. Two years ago, my brother went to study in Barcelona, now it is my turn to be independent.

But now my priority is study a lot for approve all the exams and get a good mark of the selectivity exams, to enter in the degree that I want.


NEWS: Japan: Zoo sorry for naming monkey after new princess

The Takasakiyama Zoo, in southern Japan, put the name of Charlotte to the first female macaque monkey of the year. They put this name as a tribute to the princess of the British royal family. It is a tradition to put a name to the first newborn macaque monkey each year. And it is through a public vote.

This caused many complaints to a lot of people that they considered disrespectful to the British royal family. So the zoo has apologized on its website and they still thinking of renaming the monkey.
I think it is a beautiful tradition and anyone must not break this tradition. It is a popular vote therefore, in my opinion; the zoo must not rename the monkey, because the majority has decided in this way.
I do not think that it is disrespectful, quite the opposite. I think the people are very much exaggerated and the zoo can not to do attention to these people.

NEWS: Burnt-out passenger ferry to be towed to Valencia port

The ferry called Sorrento caught fire 20 miles from Mallorca with 156 people on board between passengers and crew. On April 28 the evacuation was a success. The captain gave the order to evacuate the ferry on lifeboats, but now the more worrying is that the ferry carried 740 tons of fuel that can represent an ecological disaster.

Now the Sorrento is it around 100 nautical miles from the coast of Valencia. The operation to transport it to port will be very risky because is necessary to try that the fuel does not leak into the sea. The Public Works Minister Ana Pastor had said that the government’s priority was to ensure that the ferry will not contaminate the Mediterranean coast.

I think that is a very important issue because in recent years in different parts of Spain, particularly in Galicia and the Canary Islands have passed similar acts that they are a very big ecological disaster.

If the fuel is spilled at the sea, apart of the destruction of the plants and animals of the sea represents an economic injury because the tourism in this affected area is very much damaged. The governments must do the necessary to find solutions to these accidents.



NEWS: Paws for thought over cryptic photo

The cat that goes stairs up or down depends on how you look.

After the photo of the dress that looked blue and black to some and white and gold the others, now a new picture has divided the opinions in internet.

The experts in animal morphology say that the body and the paws of the cat marks he goes up but if you look the construction of the stairs it can see very clearly that the cat goes down the stairs, well that's what the builders say.

First I would say that the first time I saw the picture I thought the cat climbed the stairs but after to read the news I changed my opinion and now if I set the eyes on the base of the ladder, I see that the cat downstairs.

I think that this news is very funny and the networks make everyone give their opinion on a subject so simple.

Dear Mr. Ollanta Humala,

I am writing to for inform of a injustice that happening in Peru. Peru is the sixth country global producer of gold, and a lot of families that work in mine to search gold and they risk their lives every day. They put up life awful conditions, without water and foodstuff. Moreover, work in mine is very harmful of health because is a metal very pollutant. The majority of mine workers don't have enough money for pay the material necessary for work in mines. A lot of families accept these conditions and they lives on risk because their children have to go the school. 

I look forward to hearing from you.
Yours sincerely.

Fast & furious 7

The film of Fast & furious 7 was released on 10 April 2015. It is an action film directed by James Wan. The main players are Vin Diesel, Paul Walker, Michelle Rodriguez, Jordana Brewster, Tyrese Gibson, Chris Bridges, Dwayne Johnson, Lucas Black and Jason Statham. But Walker could not finish recording all the film because he died in a car accident, so has its dismissal at the end of the film.

Is a very good action film, appear in the movie: great cars, fighting, weapons and all sorts of new technologies and the actors are very good.

At the end of the film, they do a homage very exciting dedicated to Paul Walker.

I've seen all the movies Fast and furious, and I am a fan. I like all the actors, and I liked very much the end of the film dedicated to Paul.

This is a very good film and I recommend it to all audiences.

Human rights questions

1. What are human rights?
The human rights are moral principles that describe certain standards of human behaviour, and are regularly protected aslegal rights in national and international law.

2. When and why were they created?
Human tights were created in 1948, because after spending the war, there was much poverty and many misfortunes and horrors that suffered all people, and because of this they created human rights.

3. How many human rights are there?
There are thirty human rights.

4. Which human right were you not familiar with?
I didn't know of the existence of this human right: Asylum and rest & relaxation.

Make a list of new words you hear, if any. Think of an example where this human right is respected and where it is violated.
I chose the human right of worker's rights because I think that is very important that all of people have a good job with a living wage. This human right is very important because there every countries that don't comply this right, for example in  Africa or in countries in South America.
