MY ENGLISH PROGRESS FROM 2009-2011
My first writing of 1rst of batxillerat is different from my last writing, it’s different in the way of witting .
At the beginning my English was poor, the first writing reflected it because my level was very low: for example It was badly constructed, spelling mistakes, bad expression, serious mistakes and it was bad without connectors. This was caused because of a low level of ESO where I had had base of English.
Despite, this after two years I can see that my level has improved because now I can do well constructed phases using a few sophisticated words.
I think that the change, that I have done, is big but is isn’t enough, because my level of English is very low compared to other people but for me it’s much better because from 1rst to 2nd I had learnt more. Despite this in the last writing, for example, I have had problems with some verb conjugations and I think that I need more vocabulary for develop writings.
Before structures didn’t follow the steps and now maybe they do, I put the adjective after the name, (for example) and other mistakes.
So about comparing of my presentations, is the same as writing.
The content of the first presentation was very poor because I gave very little information about the subject; the language also needed more effort. So I think that it happen because it was the first presentation that I had done in my life and I had never spoken front of other people. The pronunciation was also bad but I think it hasn’t change from now because I know that my presentation is still bad. I hate not know how to pronounce words well but it’s my fault for not practicing and not paying attention to English conversation.
About the last oral presentation, it seems to have changed with context and language ( that it’s more less good) but pronunciation continues being bad.
Something that can influence is that before everything was new and the listeners were also new but now we have been two years together and my confidence is better. Perhaps now I’m less shy doing presentations.
In relation to this, presentation and blog, I think, it has helped me to improve English because it proposed and effort at home where we can think and develop writing while we are learning. However, when we posted writings in a blog we didn’t know our mistakes that we were doing, so we only saw mistakes with tasks. In the second of batxillerat the same has happened because the system was the same. I think that the problem has been the use of technology because if teachers request writings written by hand saw our mistakes.
The idea of blog has been good but I think that teachers, in two years, have wanted more writings, unless 30, and the result hasn’t been sufficient.
Perhaps the blog should have been less important than other things like doing more tasks and more activities in class.
To conclude, I think that in 1rst of batxillerat, the three groups of levels were perfect because everybody learnt slower o faster depending on their level. This years should have been same because in class not everybody has the same level.
MY ENGLISH COMPETENCE IN 2010
I have chosen this presentation and written for two reasons: the first because the presentation of Medieval age I prepared a lot because I wanted it to be very good and because remember that the result has been good because after doing it I thought that I could do more presentations I wouldn’t be shy. Also I chose the written: long-distance love of this year’s because I expressed my critical comment about the subject and I gave my opinion, so I liked it.
About the best written that I think that I did is (love-distance love) because it started with the expression (it’s true!) so I had never used expressions and it was original. Following I say that it’s possible to have a relationship at long distance but I’m not completely convinced because it’s difficult to have a relationship under these circumstances.
I think it’s other way of writing because it doesn’t’ follow the same structure of my other writings. Also I speak about nowadays, about situations that happen at present and finally I give my sincere opinion.
My arguments support it and also, the writings are actual at the present and it’s a subject that can attract and it’s not boring.
In the end, my final reflection is this, I think that this year has been good, I have learnt new things, perhaps I have continued in the same way and the progress has been small but I’m sure when say that I have learnt more. However all that I haven’t learnt was my fault but English subject is difficult for me.

NEW: PAKISTAN BOMBINGS: TALIBAN ADMITS SHABQADAR ATTACKS
Twuin bomb attacks on a paramilitary force academy in northwest Pakistan have killed 80 people, police say.
120 people were wounded in the blasts at the training centre for the fronter constabulary in Shabqadar, Charsadda district.
The Pakistani Taliban said that they carried at the attack to avenge the death of Obama Bin Laden.
However, the al-Qaeda leader was killed during a batlle in the northern Pakistan town (2 May)
OPINION; Several months this struggle is present on TV's it seems that this struggle will never have an end because muslim people never agree. I think that this situation is very incredible because we are in the century XXI and wars still haven't finished when the last was ( Second GM) started about 1900.
The images that journalists and news show are very shocking because only people appear bleeding or dying every day.
I also think that this war will start late because now the death of Obama, has caused anger and resignation in Pakistan. This situation is very dangerous and it can start wars with other countries.

CATASTROPHE OF JAPAN HAS MADE HISTORY
This photo affected me very much because I saw a little child being checked to see if he had radioactivity in his body. Bff… it’s hard to see because it was a little child who didn’t know what was happening,, I didn’t understand it…
I think that the big catastrophe will be the most important in life because it has had and will have a lot of problems. I also think that Japan will get better because it’s a big country and it’s a big economical power.
I’m sure that Japan has to prepare or invent a fast solution to answer this problem.
To conclude, I hope that Japan will improve and that all the families will rebuilt their new life and they won’t build any more nuclear powers.
What about catastrophe of Japan? Everybody has forgotten it already? Because that’s what it seems or what I think. A few weeks ago a giant catastrophe shocked everybody, at first everybody was sorry for the Chinese people because the problems that it caused were very serious but… when the nuclear plants started to give problems everyone started to worry seriously.
Now it seems to have finished because the big problem that caused radioactivity in Japan and in the world seems to be normal because on the news it said Japan will remain unaffected by radioactivity from nuclear plants. Everybody was upset about it.
After many days it seems that everybody has got over this catastrophe. However, the big earthquake and tsunami disaster has left a big footprint that Japan will advance with difficulties little by little.

When I knew about it I worried a lot because each time critical images appeared after the catastrophe. I feel sorry for these people because it could happen in Spain to us.

Dialogue with a farmeI’m Antonela and I’m school student and I’m going into the field where I will meet Joan, the farmer and owner of a farm. I’m interested in finding out about what the life of a farmer is like and the different tasks that he has to do.
A: I’m Antonela, hello Joan. I’d like to know about your job and what you have to do.
J: hello. Yes, I have been working as a farmer for fifteen years because I like to be with animals a lot and to cultivate different kinds of vegetables. Moreover I inherited the farm from my father.
A: With reference to this. Do you like working in the fields or not?
J: Oh yes, sure yes because you have to like his kind of job when you do it all day.
A: Of course! Do you think that nowadays agriculture is less important than other jobs?
J: It’s true that before agriculture was more important and very essential for everybody but at the moment with technology, the jobs in the fields have disappeared. However, I want to work in this practically.
A: yes, it’s true. Do you think that nowadays it’s more difficult than before?
J: yes, now it’s more difficult to continue because nowadays there isn’t a lot of help from the government.
A: So nowadays there are more facilities from technology aren’t there?
J: I agree with you because machines are more advanced than before.
A: Joan, I’m very grateful to you and I hope that agriculture will never disappear.

Dear Mrs. Richt
I’m Antonela Santillán and I’m nineteen tears old. At the moment, I’m study in the High school of Castelló d’Empúries and I want to tell you about nuclear power. I realize that there are problems related to nuclear power stations.
First of all, I thought that it would cause a standstill in the development from the people to the necessary energy. I also think that we are to blame for wanting more than we can produce.
I agree with you when you sat that it is better that the nuclear power stations start again and so be more comfortable and safe for all humanity. Although this the catastrophe was caused by an earthquake I want to know is this it could have been avoided with more control in these nuclear power stations. However looking at the positive part this has been useful to make us be more aware of the danger they can cause.
I hope that this problem can be solved and it will never happen again.
Your sincerely
Antonela Santillán

And in 50 years, in a single lifetime, the Earth has been more radically changed than by all previous generations of humanity.
This 50 years have served to see if humans have acted correctly in their lifetime.
Its true that the human evolution has been perfect for new progress like in technology, science, society and politics that has served us to improve. However, now, the lack of oil, violence, important climate change, poverty and bad economy in many countries are the consequences that people must pay to degrade the planet. It’s a time when we can see that people want more and more and they are waiting for new technologies capable of making a like easier using energy without looking at the amount.
The catastrophe of Japan has been a perfect example for people to see that nuclear power plants that we have built ourselves can ‘kill’ us.
However, the most of all is that this bad situation will not improve because we don’t know how to live without things that are now essential, but before weren’t .
To conclude, this sentence makes a lot of sense but we can’t see this or we don’t want to see it.

IMAGE YOUR IDEAL BOYFRIEND.
When I imagine my ideal boyfriend, perhaps I always describe the same description. The fact is that only I've got one important person in my life. Physically should be tall, with a little short hair and dark skin.
Phicologically I imagine my boyfriend friendly, show their feelings and be honest. One of all detail that I like he should be friend of my friends. I think that is very important because you have to have a relationship without leaving your friends.

"You make your own future"DAVID : Carnival is here!
Hi David, it’s logical that everybody likes carnival because it a funny party where you meet new people. The following day I saw you and all the boys were very happy dressed as gangsters and the girls as Charleston. Well, next week there will be another party! :)

UAB seems a good university because it’s a very big campus, there are all kinds of university courses and also there are a lot of facilities. It can be good but I think that this university is far from the centre of Barcelona city. I remember when we went to UAB and we listened to the conference of ADE. It would be good to study economy or ADE together, wouldn’t it.

Hello xavier! I agree with you when you say that fashion changes contiually and girls follow it. I think that fashion depends on each person but I don’t believe that it depends on music because sometimes people don’t like the singers clothes. In conclusion I also think tha fashion is a big industry.

Human rights
HUMAN RIGHTS
1. What are human rights?
Human right are freedoms and rights that all humans have the right to have. They can be shared rules of moralities or legal rights.
2. When did human rights start?
Human rights were created in 1948 in Eastern and western Europe but with some contributions from the USA and at in America.
3. Why were they created?
They were created to protect all people in the world and give form of organization starting with freedoms, laws and rights no matter they religion or race.
4. How many human rights are there?
There are thirty human rights.
5. Which human right were you not familiar with?
The human rights that I am not familiar with –No unfair detainment- the right to play and freedom of thought.
6. Choose one human right and discuss:
This human right that I have chosen is ‘We’re always innocent till proven swilty’ and I have chose it because I think that it’s a bad thing that someone could suffer, before or now in time. I also work with this human right because when I read this subject I felt very angry about this, perhaps because I think that it’s very unfair and living with this unfairness makes it worse.
Fortunately, Spain is a country that does not allow this injustice but unfortunately there are countries in the world where the justice does nothing when a crime occurs when there is no evidence.
The worst in that everybody knows about it but they are afraid…
I have chosen this film to comment because we can see the crime of raping but nobody says anything. The name of the film is Bordentown ( Ciudad del silencio. Mexico), based on true facts.
If in the century XXI there are some cities and countries where this happens, this means that in the past, of course, it wasn’t respected.
In conclusion, this right is not complied when government, power and laws don’t exist in a countries… they start to allow crimes without realizing it.

7. Are Humans rights relevant in the world today? why?
I think that today human rights are very relevant in the developed countries but we know that there are a lot of countries without laws or, and even more, human rights don’t exist in underdeveloped countries. Perhaps this is because of the culture, economy, history or where they are situated.

This year I want to pass batxillerat because it’s very important for me. So I think that this year will be difficult although I’ll never give up op myself. I thought that I would never be able to do the selectivity because I was a pessimist but now I’m more optimist and I want to struggle to have something in this life.
At the (this) moment I don’t know what I am going to study. Everybody or a lot of people, for example my friends already know what they are going to study.
My dream has always been to be a photographer and have a good camera to take pictures. One part of my dream is already a reality because for my birthday I was given a good camera reflex. I’m still very amused with my present. I’d like to study to be a photographer and audiovisuals technician but the best would be to take photos for magazines or documentaries. However I think that this career hasn’t got much future because a lot of people are already working at this job. It’s also very difficult to (of) find a job and be stable.
Nowadays it’s more difficult to find a job in something that we have studied. This happens in photography, architecture, engineering and other degrees (careers). I think that to fulfill our goals we need to get involved in something that we want. If we don’t help ourselves we won’t get anything.
At the (this) moment I want to go to college and try to study something that will allow (permit) me to have a good job in the future. But at the moment I have to concentrate on the Research Project and after to pass batxillerat. When this year is over it will be the moment to know what to do in my life.
