MY ENGLISH PROGRESS (since 2013)

1.1 Compare your first written document (email to teacher) and your last composition.

1.2 Compare your first oral presentation and your final oral presentation.

• Can you see any differences? Which? Give some examples.
• Can you give linguistic arguments to support your analysis?

  Analyze the content, structure, language, presentation, fluency, pronunciation...

Can you see a personal development in these documents?

1.2

After these years writing on my blog, I can see some differences in my posts, such as some gramatical mistakes that today I see but when I wrote the text I couldn’t see.
Besides, in my opinion, I have changed a lot my style because when I started the blog I used to put a lot of pictures and I combined the text with pictures. However, now I still put some pictures but I have a lot of posts without them, like the newest one.
The topic of my first post was a dream, labeled under the yoursay’s tag. The other is a new, which isn't complicated because if you were focused on reading the text, you can write a good post.
I think that my English changes since the first post I wrote are fantastic.

FORMAL LETTER

19 Carrer Pol Sud

17480 Girona

14th April 2015

Queen Sofia of Spain,

Carretera del Pardo s/n

Palacio de la Zarzuela

Your Majesty, 

I am writing this letter to present my complaint because my son enter the last second of April at the prison unjustly. 

I know that my son is not an angel but he is not a criminal. The last second of April he was condemned to twenty years in prison because he was found with blood in his hands and near to a died body. I wish that day he had not been there!

I am sure that he is not a guilty person because he has a lot of enemies that will cause harm to him. 

My request is you do  all is in your hand to help me. My son is not a criminal. I am sure that if the police investigate very deep in that case, they will find clues to prove him innocent. 

I look forward to your majesty finding the ways to help me.

HUMAN RIGHTS

1. What are human rights? 
2. When and why were they created? 
3. How many human rights are there? 
4. Which human right were you not familiar with? 

ANSWERS:
1) Human rights are rights that all humans have.
 2) They were created at 1948 after the Second World war by the United Nations to preserve all the people rights
3) There are thirty rights
4) I'm not familiar with the "culture and community" right

Watch the video of the right you chose.Make a list of new words you hear, if any. Think of an example where this human right is respected and where it is violated.

GUILT --> culpa
STEAL --> robar

I saw the article 11 of the human rights that are: "We're always innocent till provent guilty"

One example where this human right is violated is when somebody acuse to someone to do something and then that's false; you can't acuse the other person without prove because you broke them privacity.

Othere example where this human right is respected is at the police investigation because they can't arrest somebody without demonstrates.


Also I saw the article 19 of the humans rights that are: "Freedom of expression"

HOLD --> Tenir, agafar
SEEK --> buscar
REGARDLESS --> en qualsevol cas

EXAMPLE WHEN THE RIGHT IS VIOLATED: At 2012, a theatre company of Spain created a particular show that calls "La familia irreal" and that shows with a big part of humour sence all the troubles that the royal house have inside of the family. That show had a lot of troubles and a censor part before that could be made a debout.

EXAMPLE WHEN THE RIGHT IS RESPECTED: I think that this right is respected in all songs and all poems. Now, the singers can make them songs and can express everything they will. Also some TV programs have this right. Some examples were: SKA-P or POLÒNIA.

SELF EVALUATION ORAL PRESENTATION.

When I saw that video I think that I can do my presentation as well that.

I can see that I read in some parts of my presentation and also that was a little bit short.
I think that when I was jam, I could resolve my problems well like when I answer the teacher's final questions because I did my research project and I know a lot of thinks about that subject.
Also I think that the prezi support is complete and have a good structure.

The mark that I put to myself is a 6 because the presentation was short and I read at some periods.

DIALOGUE

Two old women that are in the hospital because they're ill, are in front of the cirurgy room. They see how people change and how many people pass into the room. Moreover they are very gossip, and criticize so many people.

G- Hey! Have you seen the last man? He was very fat and he want a liposuction and the doctor said to him that he needed a nose operation, puajajajaja

L- Sure, I've seen him. He was ridiculous.

G- Yes, he was 200kg jajaja

L- This week a women have done a nose operation, when she's gone she didn't seem the same person; I think that she’s more horrible than before. Don’t you?

G- I think so. And what about the doctor? He is operated from head to toes.

L- Oh,really? I think that he’s horrible! And when he enter with a lot of women… that’s hideous!!

G- He is very superficial, he isn’t kind or sympathetic, he is really hateful. He uses women for his interests, and then he disappears of their lives. He found girls and lowers their self-esteem to force them to be operated.

L- When he pass in front of us we can bump him into the floor.

G- But, he can be operated another time, it isn’t useful. I think we have to kill him, don’t you?..

TALK WITH NOA

Well, I think talking with Noa was a good experience because she explained us her dialy life in Sydney (Australia) and also we coul ask her some  interesting questions like how many hours she worked or if the family treated her well.
Then, she gave us some advice and the steps to contact an agency and then a good family.


I think that a gap year will be a good experience but before I will have finish my degree.

HARD AND SOFT SELL

-This are some soft sell advertisementes; hope you like!

DIALOGUE

First Saturday of March; Lizzy and John, a cuple that marry the next day, wants to sign a prenuptial agreement...

LIZZY -> Darling, we can start with the logical things.

JOHN -> Ok, first I think that my mum will come every Sunday to our house and you can make a special lunch. 

LIZZY -> Why? Your mum hates me John!!

JOHN -> No, she doesn't. She loves you like a daughter.

LIZZY -> I'm sure that's not true but if you want that, I will go every Friday with you to have dinner and then we could go to a pub. I think that 5pm is a good hour to go home..

JOHN -> Oh no Lizzy please! You know that I hate going to party.
