PRACTICAL SKILLS

By ALBA SÁNCHEZ #BTO2D
Some people think that teenagers nowadays only have to concentrate on academic subjects and ignore themes which teach you practical skills, such as managing money and applying for jobs, because "they're not as important as them".

First and foremost, practical skills are fundamental things that everybody should know. For example, it doesn't matter if you have excellent marks in science if you don't know how to do a curriculum vitae or do a job interview.

It is also important to consider that many academic subjects require so much concentration and, it's irritating, so you need some relax which you can find in practical skills which are not that difficult.

In conclusion, practical skills are not less important than academic subjects, and they should be taught at schools like the basic and fundamental subjects.

IS IT BETTER TO LIVE ALONE OR WITH SOMEONE ELSE?

BY NATALIA ALMAGRO #BTO2D

Independence has always been a problem for young people. Some old teenagers are said not to want to leave their houses, and others are said not to be able to do it. In fact, there are some disadvantages if you want to leave home.

Here in Spain, independence is not one of the most important things when you become an adult because you can find a job and continue living at home, so you do not need to go for a new house.

In other countries, their parents want them to leave home. It is very difficult to live alone, and you have to get used to being alone and independent, too. Moreover, you have to try not to feel lonely. Currently, I know people that no sooner have they left home than they are missing home due to their mothers' at home, for example taking care of charges.

One of the most important things of deciding if you live alone or not is to find good flatmates. However, it is very difficult for young adults to find responsible ones. For example, if you find a responsible one, you will be able to share your charges.

As a conclusion, it is very difficult to decide if you live alone or with someone else since each one has their advantages and disadvantages. However, from my point of view, it is better to live with someone else because it is cheaper and more enjoyable than living alone.

A BEAUTIFUL MIND

By LUCÍA SABAS #BTO2B

I am going to give you my opinion about a video that I saw the other day.

In that video we could see how Marx fell in love with a woman's mind who he hadn't ever met. He was in the library when he caught a book that had many notes around the book's pages. The notes showed the woman's thoughts. Fortunately, on the first page, he found her name.

Marx, the protagoinst, decided to look for the woman. Finally, They were sending a lot of letters to each other and she fell in love with him. One day, They met up at an airport, but, he didn't see the person who he was waiting for. He found a grandmother waiting for him, but it was an experiment created by the woman to check if after he saw the older woman, he still wanted to go to the restaurant with her.

In my opinion, I think that it is an incredible story because the woman didn't want him to fall in love with a face, but with a beautiful mind.

ON SCREEN OR AT HOME?

     ANDREA ASTORGA #BTO2B
Nowadays people have got many different ways to watch films, among them, we can choose watching a film at home or going to the cinema. Both of them have their advantages.

On the one hand, watching a film at home is more comfortable, because you can do things at home that you couldn´t do in the cinema, for example, lying down on your sofa. Moreover, this is also the cheapest way to watch a film as the popcorns are bought IN the supermarket.

On the other hand, watching a film in the cinema has got advantages, too. The main advantage is that there is a better atmosphere. Each time you go, you can see peope who are ready to watch the film with their popcorns and drinks.

To sum up, I think that watching a film in the cinema is better than watching a film at home because the screen is bigger than my TV, and the sound has got better quality.

NEW TECHNOLOGIES

BY ISABEL MARTÍN #BTO1D

In the world, the new technologies have caused a revolution, because our liVes are easier thanks to them.

If we talk about medicine, we can highlight the new illnesses that doctors have treated and discovered thanks to new technologies. These have helped to save many lives or have a better life.

Also, it has facilitated those people who live far away from their families and friends. With new technologies they can communicate with them easily and faster.

New technologies are also useful to search for some information faster and more efficient, although sometimes sources aren´t safe at all.

In my opinion, there are more advantages than disadvantages of new technologies. The disadvantages have caused that many children dedicate their time using these media instead of spending their free time playing sports, going out with friends, etc.

Another disadvantage is that most of these products are very expensive, and many people spend their money buying mobiles, computers,etc, when they need it for other things.

But in conclusion, I believe that the new technologies have been a good discovery for the world.

Every day I put some food outside my house for a cat. Today I saw the cat eating my bird.

Last night I was watching the news on TV. More than 20 min for sports, 15 min for the weather, and only 5 min for the dramatic situation of the refugees.

III
When I returned to Spain, I couldn't find my luggage. I went to the office. The girl smiled and said, "Don't worry, you are in good hands. Has your plane arrived yet?"

IV
I went on a trip to observe sea mammals. They guaranteed "100% whale watch", but the only thing we saw were blue waves moving the boat.

V
Last night, I thought I saw the North Star, but it was just an aeroplane in the distance.

VI
I am going out with my friends and everyone is on mobile phones on Twitter and Instagram.
