CELEBRITIES INFLUENCE ON YOUNG PEOPLE

BY MARIANA MÁRQUEZ #BTO2B
Nowadays, we live in a world where, especially thanks to social MEDIA, we can know what all our FAVOURITE stars are doing daily. Are young people being influenced by celebrities because of that? In my opinion, of course they are.
First of all, we can take the example of their wardrobe because we are inspired by singers looks in their videoclips, or by actors in galas to be always up with the lastest trends.
Although we can name celebrities like Miley Cyrus, whose provocative twerking has been copied by girls all around the world.
Moreover, they launch styles, like the one of the "selfie", which started with the photo taken at the Oscars ceremony in which we can see actors like Brad Pitt or Jennifer Laurence. Besides, in other occasions it can do us join supportive MOVEMENTS, as the ice bucket challenge to promote awareness of the disease ALS, or the recent "je suis Charlie" (I'm Charlie) for the defense of the right of expression freedom.
In conclusion, it is true that celebrities influence young people nowadays, so we have to choose our role model carefully.

EXTREME RELIGIOUS, MY OPINION

BY DANIEL DE ASÍS #BTO2C
Last 7 January, there was a horrible attack in the office of Charlie Hebdo in Paris. Two masked-men killed twelve employees of the magazine. The terroristS were muslim origin. Possibly, they were anNoyed because of the publication of many drawings making fun of Alá, the muslim god.
In my opinión, I think that we can't be MUCH too extreme. You can be religious , but you should be tolerant.
On this case, it is very hard because you can't kill anybody for doing his job, that in this case it is drawing in a magazine.
Muslim are very radical with their religion. They always have wars because of religious issues.
The government should take action in that events. We can't allow people who make the religion a reason to murder.
In conclusion, it hasn't any justification. Government should make PEOPLE aware about the values of people's life.

THE CONSPIRACY OF THE ELECTRONIC RUBBISH

 BY NACHO GUERRERO #BTO2C

As time goes by, technology is even more present in one'S everyday life. Every year, new models of all technology ranges come up, and the old ones are replaced.

So, where do all these old devices end up? 

Even though there are strict rules about exportation, the electronic rubbish mostly endS up in Ghana or China. The most developed countries produce about 50 million tons of these residues, which the 75% of them dissapear ilegally. Furthermore, just in the UE, one third of electronic rubbish is recycled appropriately.

Therefore, the 'lost' rubbish is accumulated in poor countries, like Ghana, where toxic chemicals of all of those old and broken devices are a huge health risk. Inhabitants bet there lives just for some materials they can find like gold, silver, neodymium... These risky jobs and the illegal exportation from developed countries conform a bigger business than drugs.

Finally, speaking for myself, we should think more about getting a new smartphone every year, because this consumerist tendence we all have is destroying and polluting the Earth, our home.

#SAFATINIES 8

#1
I am in the bus, which is full, a woman gets on and the only one who offers her a seat is me. How impolite are these persons. 

#2
I was walking on the street and I stumbled on the only hole in the great way. What a shame! 

#3
I am drinking water and my brother makes me laugh. Guess what… I am soaking.

#4
My brother calls me shouting, I run upstairs. He tells me he wants me to bring him up a bottle of water. 

#5
I am singing with my earphones on, I think I am doing it fine, but the people around are looking strangely at me. 

#6
All the neighbors have spectacular orchards, but mine… I can be compared. 

#7
 I try to pull a joke on a friend when I stumble and fall. 

#8
I am in the classroom, paying attention all the time, I say one phrase and… I fail. 

#9
I am on the street with people looking up and down at you. How awkward! 

#10
I WAS in my house, when someone called the door. I WENT to open it. When I openED the door, I see that the dog HAD RUNG.
