5 UNCOMMOM ADJECTIVES TO SOUND NATIVE

DO PARENTS AND CHILDREN AGREE WITH BILINGUAL SCHOOLS?

BY LOURDES REINA, ESO4D

Today, education is so important, and almost all shools want to improve their students marks, and with them children can learn a lot of English.

In my opinion, bilingual schools are not bad although my friends and more people think so. In these schools, you don't learn only your language, but you can learn two languages at the same time. You'll learn a lot of grammar, vocabulary, expreSSions, and even you can travel to foreign places in which you can understand everything.

So finally, I advise you a bilingual school for your children and their great education.

SHOT ME DOWN, BY DAVID GUETTA

Enjoy this great music with lyrics by David Guetta and Skylar Grey:

LYRICS:

I was five and he was six
We rode on horses made of sticks
He wore black and I wore white
He would always win the fight

Bang bang, he shot me down
Bang bang, I hit the ground
Bang bang, that awful sound
Bang bang, my baby shot me down

Seasons came and changed the time
When I grew up I called him mine
He would always laugh and say
Remember when we used to play

Bang bang, I shot you down
Bang bang, you hit the ground
Bang bang, that awful sound
Bang bang, I used to shoot you down

Music played and people sang
Just for me the church bells rang

Now he's gone I don't know why
Until this day, sometimes I cry
He didn't even say goodbye
He didn't take the time to lie

Bang bang, he shot me down
Bang bang, I hit the ground
Bang bang, that awful sound
Bang bang, my baby shot me down

WHAT IS SAINT PATRICK DAY?

SAY NO TO JUNK FOOD

BY BLANCA BESTEIRO, BTO2A

I think people´s health all over the world is getting worse, because everybody is eating more and more junk food. A lot of people eat at work, and this is not comfortable, and people decide to eat something quickly, normally fast food. But the junk food could have some advantages, for example its taste. It is cheap and easy to buy.

On the other hand, it´s true that most of the aspects related to fast food are negative.

Advertising is responsible for the increasing of junk food.

Finally, as a conclusion, i think that it is convenient to invest in sports and in a good nutrition to have a healthy country. You will also feel good and pleased with yourself.

According to experts, one TIP for everybody is walking everyday and doing many other activities such as using stairs instead of lifts, walking to work or school, drinking a litre of water every day, and deciding what type of food we want to eat carefully.

PEOPLE WHO DON'T RECYCLE SHOULD BE FINED

BY DARÍO CALA, BTO2C

Many people ought to be fined for not recycling. In my opinion, policemen should fine those people who don´t look after the environment.

In the past, people didn´t recycle because they weren´t aware of the importance of recycling. Furthermore, people didn´t throw so much rubbish and they used to reuse bottles or clothes. To my mind, this implies that in the past there was less pollution. Today, people are throwing more rubbish than before, but they recycle more and more because it´s essential to get a better environment.

In conclusion, I agree with recycling paper, plastic and glass. I also think that people shouldn´t throw so much rubbish.

ABORTION: MY OPINION

BY VIC DOS SANTOS, BTO2D

In mi opinion, the new law of abortion that the goverment wants to impose is incredible. With this new law, only raped women can abort. I can’t believe a law like this can be in democracy! Aborting is a decision that only women can choose, not the government, because it’s their life. People who have aborted are not killers. Even sometimes, abortion is the best option. For example, if a mother knows that her future son is going to be born with a rare disease and they both are going to suffer. Maybe aborting is the more appropRiate option. Aborting is a right, and the government mustn’t deny it, because we live in a democratic country.

THE GOLDEN BALL

BY MARTA MARTINEZ, BTO2C

Once again, the AWARD of the Gold Ball creates controversy. This year it has been awarded to Cristiano Ronaldo, who competed with Messi and Riveri (two other great players).

Some complain about the adversiting campaign for Cristiano, but the truth is that all the players have their own campaign, so they can not say that Cristiano took advantage of it.

Futhermore, Riveri won everything or almost everything with his team, making a perfect season. However, people who choose them have their own liking and preferences, they rate things concretely and reach a conclusion or opinion which is the key to say who´s the winner.

Football is a sport with millions of fans, and it´s very difficult to reach an agreement, so this award will still be controversial no matter who wins.

BULLFIGHTS: MY OPINION

BY SOL PACHECO, BTO2D

Bullfights are known throughout the world. In that way ,  enough people coincide that it is a mistreatment to animals: they're cruelly humilliated.

They consider the bull strong and dangerous, and the one that the bullfighters say to face in equality of conditions. However, it already comes disoriented and stunned to the bullring, surely because it has been submitted to a confinement in a small place and in the dark. It is often abused before heading out to the bullring to lose some of its strength from the horns, bumps, etc..

All these actions are done to debilitate the bull. Though, when it goes out to the bullring, it seems to be full of fierceness. It tries to jump the barrier because it sees itself dazzled by the light and disoriented by people's shouts.

In the bullfights, bulls are murdered, but they are not alone: the ill-treated animals, the horses that the horsebreakers use, also suffer pain with the onslaughts of the bulls. In fact, these animals die after taking part in 4 or 5 bullfights.

The most common argument that is given for the survival of the bullfight is to give the bull a worthy death.

I was saying to myself, and I say to myself, that if the bull made sense of dignity, he might not agree that his death makes an amusing show. I understand that bulls, as the rest of the irrational animals, may not make sense of dignity, since they may not have sense of either the good or the evil, either the justice or the cruelty. But what undoubtedly they have is an aptitude to suffer and to feel pain, and with this capacity, if they could choose the way of dying. They would choose without hesitation the death that was causing neither pain nor agitation, nor suffering. That is to say, everything opposite to death that is given to them. By this way, that I believe it is an indecent argument on the part of people who support bullfighting.

I believe that it should disappear in the whole world. I respect the culture, but this seems to me that it exceeds to any manifestation of custom.

NEW TAXES ON CULTURE

BY EDUARDO CASTELL, BTO2A

Some months ago, I read in the newspaper that the GOVERNMENT had decided to increase the taxes ON some cultural products, such as the cinema, theatre or any live show. The Minister of Culture said that in that period of time all the economical sectors had to contribute to get out of the economical crisis. From my point of view, this measure is absolutely wrong, like REDUCING BUDGET FOR the education system. If you want to have a developed country, you can't make the accesS to the materials that help improve the education more difficult for people. If I were the Minister of Culture, I would subsidize all the things that contribute to the develOpment of the mentality of people because it is a investment that will return more money in the future.

FAMOUS CHILDREN

BY CANDELA MARTÍN, BTO2C

Lots of children dream about being famous. We can watch on TV lots of kids who are actors or singers who live an enviable life. But are they really living a dream or a nightmare?

On one hand, you have everything you want. You are just a child and you can buy expensive clothes, travel around the world, and everybody lookS up to you.

But on the other hand, children are not mature enough to deal with all the stuff that fame supposes. You must work pretty hard, and that could be very stressful for children. That is the reason because some famous kids don’t have a happy ending and they finish with alcohol and drug problems and out law. Another problem is that some people still see you as a child even when you have grown up.

To sum up, I think that being famous when you are just a child is not easy, and if you are not very careful about what you do, your career can be over too early.

THE NEW ABORTION LAW

BY ALBERTO JIMÉNEZ, BTO2B

A few weeks ago ,  the Spanish government presented a new abortion law. From now on, Spanish women won't be able to abort if they want to.

Abortion has always been a contentious issue: it has been a political weapon for the conservative parties and the progressists , plus it has been a social question with no clear answer, which is a serious problem.

In my opinion, every woman should be free to do whatever she wants with her body. People who are against abortion say that it is a murder, but murder is the action of killing some person, and what a six weeks pregnant has in her belly is not a person - it is a fetus. A fetus is still considered a part of the woman.

Now either a raped woman, or a woman that can't afford a child, or just a woman that doesn't want to have children will have no choice but have the children.

In conclusion, we are getting back in time to the seventies because of a conservative government that attacks basic civil rights.

THE SECRET LIFE OF WALTER MITTY

BY JAIME IBÁÑEZ #BTO2C

@2Cenfurecidos

Perhaps some of you have heard about a new film in cinemas which is called “The secret life of Walter Mitty”. This film is about a day-dreamer who is always thinking about a world of fantasies filled with heroism, romance and action instead of living his real life. One day he decided to embark on a global journey that will make his fictional world disappear.

I enjoyed watching this movie very much because it’s an inspirational story of a man who decided to make his dream come true. After watching it, I can swear to you that you will feel like fighting for your dreams like never before.

Nowadays, because of the circumstances people have stopped dreaming and thinking about a better life because they aren’t able to find what they really want. I’m sure that if you watch this film and you enjoy it as much as I did, you will feel like the most powerful person in the world, wanting to fight for your dreams.

ABORTION

BY: JAVIER SANTOS, ESO4D

NOWADAYS, this is a famous topic around the world. Many countries have already allowed the "abortion law". When I listen to the word "abortion", I can't think in other thing apart from death. Many people say "I have the right to choose!". Yes, it´s true. But we must think about THE baby. Why? Because he has the right to live just like you and me. You must imagine that If your mother had aborted ,  you wouldn't be alive IN THE present. I don´t understand why people do this. I'll BE ALWAYS against abortion
