Description of a place

Dubai is located on the coast of the Persian Gulf. Its capital is Abu Dhabi. The Sheikh of Dubai is Mohammed bin Rashid Al Maktoum since 2006.

Dubai is the richest country in the world that has a lot of oil production. It has many architectures and artificial islands to visit. Dubai is a place where many people will travel. Luxury hotels Burj Al Arab and Burj Khalifa-the highest in the world, with 828 m-tall, artificial port of Mina Rashid and Jebel Ali, and the housing complex of artificial islands The World and The Palm Islands.
The culture and religion of Dubai are very different from other countries because they have a different attitude.

The transport is very useful and effective as they have transportation to visit many different places. It is a country with very developed technology and the buildings are the best because they are manufactured by very good material. Music and dance are very important in the country because they mean a lot to their culture.


Of course, there are many not so luxurious places I have not described in this text but I recommend going to Dubai for a good holiday.

Summary: Gap Year



This article about the Gap Year talks about a boy who looks to the future for the summer but do not know what to do. The question is: Why do not you spend a summer working in the US?
The boy returned from Australia and wanted to go there next year, but his parents told him to go to a camp to work and he wondered: Why not? For him it was a new experience, was working there like an adventure because campers are very energetic. It also says there is a magnificent swimming pool and the weather is spectacular. Since he has returned every summer, the greatest benefit is the opportunity to travel and has a great opportunity because it has been in 50 different states. At the end of the text the guy tells us that advises the latter option because it is the best to take advantage and enjoy.

Podcast: Description of a person



His name is Norden. He's a 16-year-old boy. He's a student. He lives in Riumors. In his free time he does exercise and plays computer games. His favourite hobby is playing football and always practices. Our relationship is very good. He met a girl in Barcelona and he fell in love with her. 

Norden is addicted to fashion because he likes modern clothing. He always dresses very well but sometimes he is crazy. He's got black hair and brown eyes. He's quite tall and very thin because he is active. He's a good person because it always helps others. 

He's also very extroverted because he's never embarrassed. Sometimes it's aggressive with people because they say things that he thinks are against him. But if you know, it's a great friend with whom you can always rely on. It is one of the few people who will advise on good and bad times.

Norden for me is like a big brother because he always defends me and cares for me. When something does not have what it takes to get and see me happy. We are like Mario and Luigi!

My clothes and me



I usually wear jeans, black shoes and sweatshirts because it is my style. I dislike shirts and suits because I only wear them in important occasions. I'm consider a fashion victim because I love brands and I like go shopping with my friends. I'm interested in fashion because the clothes it is important in my life. Above everything wear clothes comfortable because I'm feel light. Really wear clothes the brand not important for me because it is more important wear clothes comfortable in places for example: at school or at home. I'm not addicted to brands but I really like it. My best brand for me is Carhartt because it is a brand is high quality. 

Self-Evaluation




The theme that was talked about Dubai. We have used Prezi a simple and very effective website. The resources that we used have focused on the subject. We have supported the resources to oral explanation. The video time per person is 5 minutes. We have been looking to the audience most of the time, but sometimes not. Sometimes we read the notes because the names of the structures and important people were difficult to learn. We made few moves to keep the audience's attention, this is an area we need to improve. We have tried to introduce the subject to the attention of the audience. We have not asked any questions about it. We have organized the ideas in order of importance. We have used few markers should improve this point for the next presentation. We have not repeated the key ideas in the conclusion. It has introduced new information to the audience because in the Prezi no. The information is detailed and quite extensive. The facts are not backed by experts. Opinions are justified. We have shown many examples both structures and names of people or places. The sources are correctly because we have looked at various websites and using books. The overall message is quite clear. The grammar is quite correct since we have written. The vocabulary is quite rich and varied because we have tried not to repeat words. We used some of the phrase connectors. Non fillers have used much. For the next presentation we improve the part of language because it is the weakest part of the presentation. The pronunciation is quite understandable but must improve because there are words that are spoken of as different write. Sometimes we changed the tone and talked with few pauses and interruptions. For my part I improve pronunciation.
My note would be a 7,5.

What restrictions does the science of life?


The science of life includes all fields of science dealing with the study of living things such as plants, animals and humans.

First say that I am in favor of science because thanks to their discoveries this world can do much better. Thanks to science we have made progress on projects such as: help a disabled person to walk. There are many people who are against it because many animals are used for experiments. But science needs to experience but can not solve the problem. Currently, laboratory mice, a positive aspect in science are used because many of mice.

Secondly there are countries that use science to inadequate such experiments: the monkey experiments used to make parts. A year ago I read an article about science and thought spectacular because recounted draft a new legs to walk. There are many disabled people who have problems and need help but do not have enough money. In this article the company UNICEF helped those people so they could have those objects.

In conclusion I believe science has always been a big plus for our future and I think should be improved without putting impediments because thanks to it many people can live life normally.

Personality quiz animal

ESTP: Fox
ESTP: Fox                                                                               Source

Dramatic, charismatic, and influential — ESTPs seek the best in life and want to share it with their friends. They are active, spontaneous, fun, and foxy. They are the most adept of any of the personality types at influencing and manipulating people, and they make great salesman and can be wonderful friends if you’re looking for a good time. Read Aesop’s Fables for more information. 

OPINION:


In my opinion I am proud that I have touched a fox because I'm like that kind of person. In the description of the image makes it an active and fun person. It seems to me that I'm that kind of person. It also puts seeking the best in life and want to share with friends. I agree with this description because it details me as I am. My personality is fun and I always enjoy spending time with my friends. The good thing about being a fox is that it is a clever animal. The bad part is that it is a very manipulative animal because it can be very nice to one person but for something of interest. For example: something to eat. This animal is very nice but is found in few areas and are very little for the day. They tend to hunt at night because her nose and eyes are developed for this type of environment. In conclusion, this animal is one of my favorite because apart from being intelligent is very nice, especially the color.

GAP


SUMMARY:

In the world there are a lot of children working in bad conditions: they work a lot without reciving money and they suffer violence from Gap's workers. The brand said that they didn't know and they avoided this kind of activities. They have moved on to India, one of the potencies of child labour, where economy is depending on this. This envolves the low cost of the prices. Some celebrities have increased the fame of the brand.
But after all, Gap has been criticised these illegal contracts which they are involved forced works and physical punishment to the workers. Gap responsed to all these acusations saying that they won't allow this anymore. Athought India depends on children for their economy.

The dream



Last night I had a bright dream. It was like if I was the protagonist of a crime. I stole a bank with my friends. Everything was figured: we had to go to the hugest bank of the area at 3am and stole all the money, and we could do it, then we met somewhere. The police wasn't noticed, in the morning, the new was published on diaries, when we met we made equitative parts of the money. Once the allocation of money each went to a different place, where we would find somewhere else to give another robbery. I take the best part and it was when I met a girl and lost all his money on holiday and casinos. My dream was one of the best and I could do what I really wanted and when I wanted.

The best football match ever



The first football match of February we played a football match with the hardest adversaries, they were first at the league. The match started at 11am and we were at Girona's stadium. I was playing with the Perelada team and we were second in the league. The match was crucial because if we won we would get first. The game started very even and finished the first part in a draw. In the second part we are more excited and could win the game with a score of 2-0. Finally after the game were all for a barbecue and play a game against the parents because that day we won the league.

Carnival

234


This carnival has been one of the best. We dress bulls, there were 9 and went to all the carnivals. The best for me were Roses and Castello. Castello especially because I know much more and the party was better than last year. On Saturday night we were all at the point of information and there we went to do the cavalcade that started at 21pm. At midnight we missed all of us and we didn't see until later. When the party is over were 6 in the morning and we were still awake. Finally I went with 2 other friends to sleep over at his house and before going to bed we went to eat at McDonald's. This carnival has been one of the best experiences I've lived.
