HIGHWAY MODIFICATIONS

Lately, spanish governement do some modifications for reduce gas mileage. This modifications is produce because libia export petrol to Spain but this country have problems with the dictator, so, now they don't export petrol.
Some of the reforms are: reduce highway velocity to 110 km/h.
For me, this reforms don't reduce the consumption, but increases fines and for me this is a swindle.
Finally, I say that The government would  chose another petrol.

2010 SNOWFALL

This time, a year ago there was an impressive snowfall. Was impressive because also snowed in the coastal like Castello d'Empúries.
For a mlot of people, this snowfall was very beautiful because all the places were white. But, for other people was to horrible because there was a lot of trouble and for two or three days, some towns hadn't electricity.
For me was beautiful and horrible because i like snowfalls but in my house I staied two days without light.

OPINION
In my opinion, our oral presentation isn't perfect because has a lot of mistakes, but not is fatal because we didn't read in any moment and we weren't nervous.
Also, I think that oral presentation would be longer because our oral presentation during five minuts, but would have to have lasted 10 minuts.
In cloncusion, our oral presentation is good but we improve a lot of things.

THE CURIOUS CASE OF BENJAMIN BUTTON

This movie treats of a curious case. Is a person that instead of baby is  born, grandfather is born.As the years went be, He is rejuvenating until he is a baby born.
This is a very good film because It shows an option totally different from the reality and this is very interesting.
 Though this is very nice, in the real life isn't possible because one old man doesn't fit in a belly. Also, this is false because isn't possible that when you born, you are an old person.

LIBIA PROBLEMS

Lately, Libian people protest in opposition to his life conditions. In this country are a dictatorship who wants all the things for he.
He hurts the people who don't agree with he.
Libia is a very important petrol exported and if the people don't work, The countries that have libian petrol, now don't have petrol because this country don't export it.
So, a lot of countries don't have petrol for more days. So, We will work out harmed.

MY TRIP TO PARIS

Last summer, I staied in Paris, the love city. Before that I went to Paris, the people say to me that Paris is a very beautiful city, but not for me.
I staied two days. At the first day, I visited the eiffel tower and for me was impressive because was the first time that I staied in a big tower. Also I visited PSG stadium because I staied in hotel nexto this stadium. In this place I meet Luyindula, a PSG footballer. For me, he is a crac.
The last place that I visited was palace of Versailles. This is beautiful and very big.

MY PARROT

I have two pets: a dog and a parrot, but now, I talk about the parrot. His name is Rocco and he is five years old. He is a yako, one type of a parrot. This parrots can live eighty years old.
He talks very good, but I don't teach him, he teach alone: you say another word many times and later Rocco repeat.
The words that Rocco says are hello, goodbay, good night... but in catalan.
I hate him because when I touch him, he fixes the beak to me, but when my mothers touch him, he doesn't fixes the beak to her.

DESCRIPTION

Lorena is very good friend, is like a sister. She is eighteen years old, middle-high, brown-eyed and she is got long blond curly hair.
On the one hand she seem introverted when you first meet her but when you know her, she is very extroverted. Also, she seems cool hearted but I think that she is very sensitive,
On the other hand, she can be very agressive when she is angry and for me, the worst thing about lorena is than she is very bossy. Also, she can  be a bit possessive, but I don't pay attentionto her then.
One thing that I really like about Lorena is that she is very friendly and hasn't two faced.

THE ANIMALS

In this writing I will talk about the animals, for me a very important part of our history and our life.
On the one hand scientist say that the humans are the descendents from the primates. This is the realest part. But, on the other hand, religon say that humans come from the god.
In my opinion, the humans are the later ones of the primates
because is realer than that the humans come from de god.
the scientists have found many tests that we are the descendents  primates.

MUSIC

When I was 13 years oldmy best singer was Melendi because he made  rumba music and he made the lyrics, But, now he is very repetitive and doesn't make all the lyrics.
Now I haven't favourites. I like all the music but it depends on the time I listen reggae or dance music.
But, I hate jazz and opera music because for me is too boring. Also, I hate oi music because for me this isn't music.
In my opinion the most elaborated music is reggae because they doesn't use the computer for make his music.

MY FAVOURITE DAY

For me the best day is when I get up at ten o'clock and I have breakfast in the restaurant. Later I go to Agullana with my family and friends. I have  lunch in my grandparents home.
Later this, I return in Castello and I go with my best friend with the motorbikes. When I am exhausted, I go to my home and eat some fruit.
When I finished to eat, I watch TV programmes like My name is Earl, Física o química, etc. I have dinner and finally, I watch TV until I'm sleep.
For me, this is the best day.
