GRAFFITI 14/12/18 12:16 pm As I said the other day, there are many types of art. Graffiti is also one of them. Graffiti is a type of art that is focus on the street art section. Graffiti artist draw in street walls and others abstract and non-abstract paintings Many people are against them for many reasons. One of the reasons is that they draw in public spaces. In that aspect, I think that if an artist want to draw in a public wall, he should ask for it instead of painting it without permission. Another reasons is that some people say their drawings are awful. I don't think in the same way this time; graffiti is a different type of art that maybe don't have many fans, however, there are many drawings that are amazing. In the village next to mine, there are many graffitis in some walls that are really amazing and when I go there by car, I always like to see them. So, I think people should stop judging what other people likes to.  12:21 pm

STYLE 13/12/18 1 . Study this paragraph and underline any examples of poor style. Informal: How to make people work harder is a topic that lots of people have  written about in the last few years. There are lots of different theories etc and I think some of them are ok. When we think about this we should remember the old Chinese proverb, that you can lead a horse to water but you can’t make it drink. So how do we increase production? It’s quite a complex subject but I’ll just talk about a couple of ideas. Formal: How to make people harder is a topic which many people have written about in the last 2 years. There are many different theories that some people believe that are fine. So, we should think about how to increase production; it is a difficult subject to talk about but we could analyze some ideas.  We cannot introduce the Chinese quote due to is too informal.  2 . (3 practice) In following sentences, underline examples of bad style and...

She found that they have an average life of only 4.7 years . This is due to two main reasons; one economic and one social .

FIRST AID AND MEDICAL HELP SHOULD BE FREE 13/12/18 9:50 am In some countries, medical services are not allowed to the ones that do not live in their country but first aid. In my opinion, no medial help should be forbidden to a person that really needs it, no matter what nationality they have, all of us have the same rights in all they countries without looking at the law, obviously. Now, talking about our country, there are many surgeries that if you want to heal from a sickness, you will have to pay. I find this disgusting, all the surgeries should be free for everyone that really needs them; obviously, esthetic surgeries are not necessary and I think they should be being paid for it. 10:00 am

ARE ELECTRIC VEHICLES A SOLUTION TO GLOBAL POLLUTION? 12/12/18 10:42 pm Global Pollution is known as one of the biggest problems that this worlds has. There are many things that provoke it; such as cars, factories, etc. However, the fact that I am going to talk about today is if electric vehicles are a solution to this problem. Of course that cars are a big problem to global pollution, but the fact is that there are many years left until we all can use electric vehicles due to the expensive prize of them. Another thing we can do is to use public transport due to many of them are made for not hurt he environment. So, electric vehicles should be a solution to reduce global pollution; however, they should be cheaper. 10:52 pm

Are music and cinema art? 11/12/18 12:52 pm There are many types of art in this world. Obviously, when we say the word 'art' the first thing that comes to our mind is a paint. However, there are many types of art. Today, I am going to talk about music and cinema. Music is obviously a type of art. The way that some singers sing and write lyrics is something that not everybody is able to do. The same happens with cinema; not everyone knows how to direct a film and how to put all the types of scenarios to create an unreal worlds that actually seems very real. I think this is amazing and is consider art. So, we should give some attention to all the types of art because they deserve to be known as it. 1:00 pm

SHOULD PARENTS BE SOFT ON THEIR CHILDREN? 10/12/18 11:07 am Nowadays' parents are known to be softer than in the past with their children. I think this is a fact that is involved of the social situation; I mean, in the past, parents were more rude with their children due to some factors that nowadays do not exists. However, I think that parents should be a less softer due to raising their children in a spoilt way. Some children nowadays do whatever they want; in the past, most children didn't spoke improperly to everyone that said anything against him.  Nowadays children are more spoilt and most parents let them have it all. I think that many things of the traditional raising should be use by actual parents due to improve their children's behavior. Today's society is full of things that could influence badly on children and teach bad habits on them, so we should raise them in a healthy way so they can be happier and not behave in a spoilt way. 11:17 am

BIRTHDAYS 9/12/18 11:25 am Today I am going to talk about birthdays due to it is mine today. Birthdays are a famous celebration that all of us have and like to spend with our family and friends. You are given presents and wishes during all day. Also, is a day that no matter how sad you are, your family and friends are going to make it happier for you. Today, I am 18; maybe it is not the best year for me but I know that today is going to be amazing thank you to my friends and my family. I usually have meal with my mother's family and then eat the cake. Today I am not going to meet my friends due to my mother and I are going to go to the shopping centre. I know it is going to be an amazing day thank you to my family and friends. 11:35 am

THERE IS JUSTICE FOR ALL? 8/12/18 10:47 am Around the world there are many laws that could be fair and unfair for many people, depending on the developing level of the country. Normally, the most developed countries, have more fair laws; I mean, they are more adapted to the society that live there and their costumes and likes. However, there are any not so developed countries that have lack of justice; racial justice, woman justice, judicial justice, etc. Due to that, there is no justice for all around the world. Even in the most developed countries, there are many awful laws that should be deleted, and others that are very essential that should be added. So, at least, a country should have respect for immigrants,  respect for women, respect for others' sexuality and a fair government to make justice for I have said before. 10:57 am

TECHNOLOGY AND EDUCATION 7/12/18 7:24 pm Nowadays, technology has improved significantly. In some schools, some years ago, started to use electronic devices like electronic blackboards, individual computers, etc for the use of the students. It can have many pros but also many cons. It is okay that teachers wants to show children how to convine technology with learning; however, it could cause an addition problem in some cases. If you show to your pupils that doing everything online it is okay, in the future they will not know how to study or do some research without technology and this is very sad. So, I think that education and technology are part of a good team, but teachers should know how to use it correctly to not influence students badly. 7:34 pm

ANIMALS FOR RESEARCH PURPOSES AND CRUEL EXPERIMENTS 6/12/18 11:45 am Animals are loved by many people, but there are also hated by other people. Some people think that all the things that are not human should be experimented and put for research. I agree that animals and nature in general is very interesting but they are living organisms and they do not deserve to be experimented while suffering. I have read many articles which said that many animals are put on machines experiments to know things like where they are really from, etc. I find this disgusting and I think society should complain about this type of scientists that make animals suffer. There are many people that have study animals' science and could know many things about them without experimenting with them so I think we should leave animals living in peace.  11:55 am

THE MOST SUITABLE AGE TO HAVE A RIGHT TO VOTE 5/12/18 11:10 pm Right now, we are on the voting process of some communities and some people talk about the right age of voting. Young people that start to vote when they have their 18s, may have their ideas clear but they also may not. I mean, some young people can vote being influenced by their family or just because they read many things and social media that make them think that voting for a ruling party in particular is the best option. Due to this situation, I think that most young people do not vote while knowing what they are doing. If you ask them of what are the ideas of the team that they have voted, they do not know how to answer you correctly. However, it also happens with adult people. To sum up, I think that there is no a most suitable age to vote. Obviously, a young person has a less control of how the world is working than an adult, but there is many young people that know more than many adult people abou...

EXPLICIT MOVIES 4/12/17 12:36 pm Yesterday I talk about children listening to songs with explicit lyrics, today I am going to talk about children watching any type of movie. I think that this time, it is more complicated due to being more careful with it. In this case, I think that children should not watch this type of films. With this type of movies I am referring to horror movies or adult content movies. If a 6 years old child watch a horror film, it could cause sleeping problems or maybe that he or she feels afraid of things that do not really exists. The adult mind is more capable of knowing that monster do not exists, but not a children mind. The same happens with adult content movies, if a child starts watching this type of movies too early, his or her mind could be frustrating with things that are unnecessary at that age. 12:47 pm

ARE MODERN LYRICS TOO EXPLICIT FOR A YOUNG AUDIENCE? 3/12/18 6:23 pm There are many singers that launch many explicit lyrics songs.  However, I think that over the years, there are also many singers that have launch many songs of this type, so, is not new. Everyone listen to music to disconnect from the world and depends of the age that you have, you are going to feel more identified with many types of song's lyrics; I mean, a child is not going to listen to the same songs as you use to listen. However, society has change a lot and children want to grow up faster than they are supposed to. I have seen many videos involved by children about the lyrics of a song that talk about sex or drugs, even if the child doesn't understand what it is saying. I think that in this case, parents should look after their children if they are too young and they are listening to that type of things. However, if they are teenagers, I do not think it is a bad thing to deal with.  ...

ONLINE DATING 2/12/17 5:45 pm Meeting people online is known as something insecure and strange. Society still have in their minds that couples should meet each other by destiny and without searching it. However, technology has improved and there are many ways of meeting people online. If you can meet people as a friends, as I talked about it in some writing journals later, you could also meet people for dating. The bad thing about this is that maybe you found people that try to trick you or lie about their personal identity. In person is more difficult to lie about you but it also could happen. So, I believe that some people can meet their future couple online but maybe not all people are able to find someone.  5:55 pm

Anorexia 1/12/18 10:03 am Nowadays, there is a debate about anorexia. Should we fight against it? Anorexia is usually a girl's problem.; however, there are many boys that also have it. It is a sickness that consists on an alimentation problem; when a person has a very slow weight and she or he keep thinking that they are still overweight or they are afraid of weighting more and more. There are many symptoms that you can have if you suffer this type of sickness. For example: a very slim body, stop eating, do too much exercise, eat a lot and then puke it, lack of emotions, depression, insomnia, etc. So, society should promote some campaign against this problem to help all the people that have it. 10:13 am

CAN EVERYONE BENEFIT FROM HIGHER EDUCATION? 30/11/18 Nowadays, higher education is putting many countries in pressure due to do not wanting students to pay all the fine of university degrees. They are trying to decide if the access for the people that want to enter to university education should be restricted or open, giving costs involved. Higher education would be in danger of losing students due to the cost, citizens would have to pay more taxes and we should look at keeping university education open to clever students from poor backgrounds. First of all, if students had had to pay all the cost of the matriculation, they couldn't have dealt with all the money spent there; so they may withdraw their courses, and the universities will lose a lot of students. That is why, many people cannot afford a higher education due to their low salaries; however, they had the same right to get a degree that a richer person. For this reason, if universities want to still having a lot ...
