Chelsea fans are furious with Eden Hazard's half-time shirt swap

Summary:
The Chelsea fans are angry with the behaviour of Eden Hazard. Eden Hazard disappoint the fans because he swap t-shirt with a player of París Sant Germain. In UK not considered correct swap the t-shirts. Also the fans of Chelsea are disillusioned with the last match because they wait for a spectacular match with a bit of blood, sweat and tears but this not happen. Some rumours said that Eden Hazard wanted to play with París Sant Germain and this is the reason why he swap the t-shirt to know what it feel.
My opinion:
The tradition of swap t-shirts is very common in the world of the football. But if in United Kindom is not considered correct it, Eden Hazard have to respect it to create a good atmosphere. But also I don't agree with the behaviour of the fans because the players are free to do what they want and this is respectable too.

Why this giant rat photo may not be quite what it seems

Summary:
The photo of the big rat create polemic in the social media. Two men find a big rat in a park near a children's playground. The men think that upload the photo was a good idea because the people doesn't belive about it. The photo create polemic because a lot of people say that the photo isin't true, because is impossible that a man take 11 kg in one hand with a picker. Some experts said that this photo is taken by a forced perspective. The forced perspective is very common and cosnsist that the animal of the photo apear more big than it is.
My opinion
I agree with the experts because is imposible to take 11 kg in one hand and also is imposible that exists one rat of this dimensions. In my opinion this photo is taken by forced perspective and this is the reson of the rat appears in this dimensions in the photo. The men who find it do this hoaxes to draw attention

The best friend of humans

A dog is the only thing on earth that loves you more than he loves himself. The people have a lot of relationships in the life, but the best of these relationships are with the dog. The dogs are always considered the best friend of humans because never fail when you need company. I consider a dog the best friend because we never can find a friend like it.
My dog is always when I need it, when I feel unhappy my dog is here, when I need company my dog is here, always is here. The dog are the most pacient and peacful animal is like a soul mate that always accompany they owner. In my opinion we never have to allow the mistratment of it. You realize what you have when you lose it so try to treat the dogs the same way that it treats us.

Cara Delevingne quit modelling because she 'lost sight' of being happy

Summary:
Cara Delevingne left modelling to be happy. She realize that do the model because she isin't satisfied. She think that the most important is not the career, because if you do something but you are not happy, you don't have to do it. Cara needs to search her hapiness. She said that what say people about what are you doing are not important and never you have to do things for the approval of the other people.
My opinion:
I agree with Cara. In my opinion the peolple have to do what makes them happy and never have to do things to get the approval of the other people. Sometimes the people have a lot of careers and studies but are not what makes them happy. If the peolple do the things them like, always do these things perfect and it's the most important.

-Accomplishments: logros
-Genuinely: sincerament

Book review: "Tres sombreros de copa"

About the book:

This book is writed to Miguel Mihura. Tres sombreros de copa mix the tragedy and the comedy. This is because the book have: characters, parts of the book, the environment that create, the humor that is search...

The strategies of humor that use the autor are very interesting, and are good to laugh at the topics and the stereos of the bourgeoisie society of this age. The mix of the characters, the environment and the language had a good result.

Finally the author include the drama on the mixture of comedy and humor and this is a good tool to create a good story.

My opinion:

I like the mixture of comedy, drama and tragedy. Because I like that style, is more interesting. And also I like the critique that do the author of the bourgeoisie society trhought a book.

I recomend this book to people who have humor, because is need a lot of humor to understand this book.

The mass media

The mass media are present in the actual society. The day to day of a person is envolved of a lot of mass media, like the radio when you are go with the car, the newspaper, the magazines, Internet, the television and others. The people use diferent mass media depending on the person, the age, de knowledge and more factors that have influence.
The most of people have a radio, can be in the mobilephone, in the car..., or a television. The availability is very important. The radio and the television offers us the proof of the information and offers us in small time. Every day and it's possible two times in a day, we can see a TV News or an informative that give us all of things are happening in the world.
To sum up the best media are the televison and the radio because Internet, magazines and newspaper offer information but sometimes are not true, or in more long time.

Self evaluation

In this presentation I used the prezi to do more visual all the information and I put images that ilustrate better the information. I did it following the correct time nearly five minutes. But I think that I focused the topic, but I explained it in general and I don't put examples and I don't go in depth in the information.
I look the audience but occasionally I read my notes because I'm very nervous. But I think that I have to improve the body language and the eye contact to get the best mark of it.
My structure was good, I can organize my ideas clearly. One thing that can make a better presentation is use markers to do it better.
The content was good but in my opinion I can do it better because I explain my Research Paper in general and I don't give examples.
The language was good but I can improve it because I did mistakes that I can correct. This is because I'm very nervous and sometimes I forget what I have to explain. But I use some vocabulary that was good like highlighted and some specific vocabulary.
I have to improve a lot the pronunciation when I was present is difficult enunciate, but I can do better in the next presentation.
In conclusion I did a good oral presentation but I have to improve in some things that are the eye contact, the pronunciation and include more linking words. I have to try to don't be nervous and get a better mark

My London experience

The last  25 of February I went to London with the high school. We did the last high school trip. We stay at London four days. We visit a lot of things: museums, markets, streets, neightborhood and more others. This trip was amazing and very special.This was the second time that I do a trip, my first time was in fourth of ESO when I went to Berlin. We are located in the Safestay Holland Park, that is a hostel located in the middle of a dog's park. I think that in this trip I walked all of I don't walk in my life. I want to repeat it, I will come back. I love London and this trip because is the best form to imporve the realtionship with my clasmates. London is an amazing city that have a very diferent culture and diferent habits of the Spanish culture. I really enjoyed that and helps me to know diferent experiencese like go in a musical.

Can the Internet make the world a better place? Discuss

The use of Internet is increasing in the recent years. Nowadays Internet is very common and popular. Internet offers you a lot of things and a lot of people of different ages use it. This can have positive and negative things.

On the one hand, Internet can make the world a better place, because it gives you a lot of information, or lets you create webs, blogs or similar things to raise money, or to inform and also a lot of diaries are digital and it offers you free news. Another example is the feet that a lot of companies have web pages and sell you their products online.

On the other hand, Internet can't make the world better place because some people don't do a good use of it. One example of that is the social networks like facebook, twiter and others, or all the advertising. When the people share their photos don't know that these will be forever on the Internnet is public and you don't have privacity when you use it.

In conclusion, if you do a good use of it can make the world a better place, but if tje people don't do a good use of Internet, the society might go backwards.

Connected

In my opinion, the media is a worldwide brand. All the people I meet use the media, that can be: facebook, Instagram, Youtube, etc. I had my first mobile when I began the high, and I only changed it when it didn't work.
One affordance of social networks is that can it gives you the oportunity to meet new people. But when Internet goes out people stay uncommunicated.

Abstract of Research Paper

My research paper consits of a study of the languages of INS Castelló d'Empúries. The intention is to get know how many foreign languages the students of INS Castelló speak and their level. The reason of this study is that we are in a territory which has linguistic diversity and there is a fusion of cultures.
I divided the research project into two parts: the theoritical part, this part is also divided into three sections: sociolinguistics, linguistics and alphabet, and the practical part. This part includes the results of the survey that I did.
