FINAL REFLECTION

My English progress (2008-2010)

I think I have improved my English since 2008, well, I hope this jEJje

I'm going to compare an email with "the fair" which I consider my last composition.

In my first written document, an email to teacher, there isn't any structure. Moreover, you can see that I had a lower vocabulary level and I always wrote with the same verbs. Another clear difference is that now, I know how to use the majority of the verb tenses. Besides, I have learned some phrasal verbs, for example: bring down, cut back on, stand for, take care.. and I can use more connectors than the last year.

One year ago I had a nightmare because I couldn't write fast and I needed to much time to write a composition, but nowadays I think I have overcome it.

Talking about oral presentations, the first I did isn't bad but I talked about simple topics with more easy words, constructions than in the last oral. What has been good from the bigining is the structure used in power points. Maybe in the first oral I spoke in a fluid continum enough because I had been preparing the oral, but now I can mantain an improvising conversation without too many complications. The most difficult for me is the pronunciation. It has improved but not much.

MY ENGLISH COMPETENCE in 2010

If I have to choose an oral presentation, it would be the second oral of this year where I talked about my research project. I think it is the best of all 'cause I loves the topic, it reflexes all what I know. What makes it the best of the rest is that I used some phrasel verbs like pick up, hand up... connectors, and of curse, the quantity of technical words that I had to learn. Moreover I was looking at the public ( a difficult thing for me).

Well, isn't easy choose the best composition because I believe any of my writings are perfect. I would take some things of ones and other things of another ones. For instance: a good idiom is:

"If you put your mind to it you will do it!" which you can found it in "Tell me what is one of my favourite pets". "After Cosmetic Surgery, the 'Do Over'", a piece of news, I can say it is the best if I refer to the structure even on it hasn't the best content.

Therefore I don't know what to say to you...

ThanKs for all.

A PIECE OF NEWS (video)

Meeting the world's smallest primate

Tarsiers live in Philippines and some Scientists work for preserve their habitat.
Conservationists are worried that the animal's popularity with tourists may be damaging their welfare and environment.
This animal fit into the palm of a hand, but can leap five metres in a single jump. Eyes are
the biggest part of his body and they can turn his neck more than normally.
What is sad is that they can only live twelve months.


Well, I have tried this piece of news because I have been surprised when I have seen the animal.
I had never seen a thing like that so I'm interesting about tarsiers.
I believe that the protection some gives to these animals it's a positive thing but on the other hand I think we have to leave the nature takes his own way.


I recommend to you to watch the video.

Opinion

Nowadays mind body therapies are very investigated and they seem effective but some people think they aren't. In my point of view, mind body therapies work, eventhough can't cure ilnesses.

Firstly, is clear that when somebody is suffering because of a depression or something similar, he or she goes to visit a psicologist. These kind of doctors help the patient without pills, only talking, and the most of time it works. Besides, there are ilnesses which don't need the traditional therapy like anorexy... they need mind body therapies.
But, however I believe sometimes is more effective use both the traditional and the mental treatment. It depends on the sick person.

To sum up, my opinion is that we will live better with the success of two treatments together and the mind body treatment isn't a waste of time.

THE FAIR

This weekend has been wonderfull!

Yesterday I went to Figueres because is the Santa Creu's party. There, I met Marta Grau, Fran, Pablo... and we had a good time dancing, talking, drinking and riding on the attractions.

Firstly I changed my money, before going, into coins in case any fair workers took me in. So in that way when I had to pay I had the right money.
After that, I arrived there at half past eleven. Robin drove to the place.

Now I would like to talk about las night but I would have to tell you so many stupif things that I prefer not to bring down our reputation so I'll leave it as it is.

At the end of the night some of us stayed to sleep in Figueres at Adria's house, my cousin.
It was all brilliant but today,.... everyone has swollen eyes.

HEh

Tell me what is one of my favourite pets

A lot of animals are succesfull but one of those is my favourite.

I suppose some of you, will know which is is apart from the dog.

Well, for who doesn't know it, I'm going to give you some clues;

It lives is the jungle, normally surrounded by others of its specie. Sometimes the female doesn't accept her own daughters or suns and always there is one male who is the chief of the group. These animals are similar to us butone of the difference is that they are more hairy than humans.


Can you pick it up¿



I can imagine you get it, so now I'm going to tell you what I would like to do. One of my dreams has been visit monkeys and its place of residence, but at this time it isn't only a dream, it's more than this. Is spite of that, I couldn't study veterinary, I'll spend one month minimum in Africa or Costa Rica with monkeys learning how they live. If I'm realistic, is complicated full field it but I think that If I haven't got any plans for the future I might as well not be here.

Therefore I would be delighted to look after monkeys.



Do you have any expectation which you would like to do in the future?



If you put your mind to it you will do it!

A piece of news ( Blood Test May Reduce Biopsies After Transplants)

Summary:
A company in Brisbane says that exist a text called AlloMap which consists on a blood test that analyzes genetic activity to find out if there coulf be rejection after a heart transplant. Some doctors say the test is efficient but when the new technology was aplied, it didn't give good results, so nowadays doctors continue with biopsies, even though it is more expensive and complicated. ___


Although Science is very advanced, we have problems with a lot of things yet. For instance, here you have an example. Moreover microorganisem field isn't clear, we can't discover how to stop their quick proliferation. Also Science sometimes brings disasters, so who thinks our life depends on it, he or she makes a mistake.

A little bit of everything

If it was for me this composition would be very depressive. I'm not well with myself, I'm not happy with my life at the moment because things aren't going well. But I don't feel like talking about this, so I will only say to you what I'll do in the next few hours or in the next days.

Today after I finished my extra-classes I will meet Monica, Ari, Riki... and other friends to go to have dinner to celebrate Ari's birthday. I believe it'll be good because we haven't gone out together for a long time. Then, some of them are going to the concert in Castelló, where "Els Pets" are going to play tonight.

Well, my weekend is appearing very boring, I'll stay at home studying and studying, and nothing else. Consecuently I hope to get a reword like good marks.

Usually, when the weekend come I take my hand bag and I go to Robin's house but from now on it'll be different, I'll have a change. I'm going to stay at home so it looks bad.

(I have to think a plan which makes my life better.)

Are You SUpersTicioUs¿?

Yesterday while I was watching "El hormiguero" this topic came to my mind because Sergio Dalma broke a mirror and some people of the public got scared and they shouted at him: please don't do it! You can see where my inspiration comes from.

Some people think, break a mirror minds you'll have seven years of bad luck.

Do you believe it¿? And why?

Maybe it is true but I have never checked it. The thing is I don't think it could be true.

Other superstitions are:

- if you walk through under steeps wood it can fall dawn on you.

-if you open an umbrella inside a place you'll be unlucky...

In my point of view all these thoughts are stupid things and they pull my leg because people search their own future. Not always, people get what they deserve because you can go through a bad moment and things aren't as you would like them to be.

I would like you to say something about it so I would know your opinion.

Bye.
