TV show: Boston Legal

Boston legal is an american legal drama-comedy.
My faborite characters are Alan Shore and Danny Crene they have an extraordinary relationship. They are the best lawyers in Boston.
The best point of this show on my view is the dialoges about vital topics like love, sex, freedom, low, human psycohology between these two characters on the balcony of Danny's office.
Boston Legal have a lot of sarcastic, intelligent and spicy humor.
I recomend this serie to anyone who want to laugh at themselves and everything in general.


I'm waiting more seasons because I started to saw Boston Legal one month ago.
I HOPE YOU ENJOY!!!

Discussion essay in class 1

Computers have made the world a better place


Obviously computers have made the world smaller tan years ago. People can talk with everyone without problems, also we can find solutions on the web (cooking, illness, math, grammar, etc). Computers help us to make our life easier and one direct consequence about that is that the world becomes a better place. The entire world is in our hands if we find the information about some topic, but now we only need a “click”. It’s look easy and normal for us, but when I think about that I see a neew world. I talked with old people that told me about how the computers change and improve the life of their generation. Nowadays they can work faster and better in their jobs.

Computer makes the earth a better place because we have all human information in the web. It helps us solve problems and learn quickly. If I need information about an exam, for example, I will find it on the internet and it will make me happier, because I won’t be nervous for the exam. This is only an easy example. Like me, all people in the world explore the web for solutions, and deep inside this is one of the better pros that computer have.

Poem:

Bridge between humans and Gods
End of the science
Light of the tunnel
Illness of the middle ages
Eternity of hope
Views of the ignorant and despreate
Everything in this world is to believe
Believe

THE EVALUATION OF THE ORAL PRESENTATION

ORAL PRESENTATION: PLASTIC SURGERY

Presentation: Our oral presentation had a lot of information on the Power Point which focused on the topic. It helped the audience. The timing of each person was similar and tha presentation lasted more o les 10 minuts. (mark 8,5)
Body language and eye contact: We were looking at our audience all the time except when we were showing the power point. Sometimes we needed to look at note because we had a lot of technical vocaburary. The body language was simple and maybe too static (I think that my body language was correct, but I felt so nervous). (mark 6,5)
Structure: we did a nice introduction to our topic, it helped the people who are interested in plastic surgery. We worked very hard to find the best structure and we could see it on the video. We asked questions doing the presentation about people or specific concerts (we couldn't see it on this part of the video). At the end people were informed about plastic surgery. (mark 9)
Content: this topic contained a lot of information but we chose the most necessary with the aim of informing our audience. We showed example about our topic and the message was clear. (mark 9)
Language: the grammar could impruve alot whrn we talk about specific concepts. The vocabulary was very specific and tecnichal about the aorld of surgery. I didn't use connectors, only "On one hand" but a lot of fillers that helped our listeners to undestand the presentation and the Power Point. (mark 6,5)
Pronunciation and intonation: the volume of the voice was correct and it helped to understand me even though my pronunciation could have been better. (mark 6)
Evaluation: I'm so proud about our oral presentation. The best part in my view was the content and the worst part was the preonunciation or body language (the typical problems when people are nervous).
GROUP MARK: 8,75 :)
PEP'S MARK: 7
(I can improve!)

CNN’S VIDEO

Chile mine captain offers good lessons

This situation is the perfect example to show what good or bad is like.

In the Chile mine there were a lot of lessons, lessons like: they lived together without fight and without problems with food for 69 days, they turned the light on and off in relation to night and day and also they never lost their nerves waiting for the rescue.

Now we can see that humanity hasn’t lost hope and pity on its fellow men. We can see it in these 69 days of work to help these 33 miners, and now the next step is help them psychologically.

BOOKS:


When I was a child my father told me every day that Reading would be an important thing for mu future. I didn’t understand those words at that time, but now I’m agree with him. My first important book: “ La vuelta al mundo en 80 dias”. After this came a lot of books about this topic like: “El palacio de la medianoche”, “La ciudad de las bestias”, “el reino del dragon de oro”, etc.
When I was 13 I started to read architecture book by Frank Lloyd Wright, Santiago Calatrava, Le Corbusie, Mies Van Der Rohe, Tdao Ando, Ero Sarinen and others. Architects and their buildings because I wanted to be an architect.
Years later my tastes grew up, when I was 16 – 17 I read poety like: “Rima by Becquer” and a book about sumerace of Spanish poetry.
At the moment I have started to read famous books but about important topic, books of philosophy. Books and text by Alejandro Jodorowsky, Fernando Arrabal, interviews of Jesus Quinetro, etc.
Also international people like Gandhi, F. Nietzsche, S. Dalí, Chinese honor, etc

Now I can understand my father words, because if you read you will be more ready for your do your own way.
