BBC news:


Men's skin cancer of laying too many hours on the beach has doubled in over 30 years. This cancer can bring even the death if it's not controled. Womans also may get this cancer more often, to prevent this we should put on a t-shirt and a hat to protect against the sun, or sunscreen. It depends of the age of the people to know if they will probably die of this cancer or not. I think that we should respect more our skin, and always try to put on some clothes , to not get burnt or absorb too many ultraviolated radiations. In my own case I try to put on the sunblock or a hat, because this isn't a joke, everyone could die from this.

Oral presentation - Racism









Observation of oral presentation:

For my oral presentation I used internet to look up the info. I think the information was good summarised and attractive, and the audience laught in some cases. I tried to keep the eye contact, and don't read everything from my notes, but some definitions were difficult so I looked a bit. To keep my audience paying attention, I tried to change my voice into higher or funnier, also including funny photos and examples.
Between that, I organised well my information in order of importance, and I had to include more discourse markers.
My information was new and relevant, so they paid attention while I was explaining it to them. This helped me to concentrate and keep with the exposition. My grammar was fine, but it was bit poor and I had to use more linkers and fillers.
My pronounciation was good enough and I tried to change my voice, including some breaks to get started next point. Well In my opinion I think I'm worth of 7. =)

Robot arm controled by the mind


People with amputeed part of body like arm can now feel his hand moving again and live much better.
I think it's a very good idea to help theese people who lost the hope, beeing able to touch somethink by his hand , or walk with his own feets. This technology is just a prototype to a future one which will change sad lifes to a hopefull one.
I think that is good idea to control your hand by the mind and be able to grab or touch things that you've couldn't before.

Summer time

I'm waiting the last day of third term, so after this I'll go right to the beach and take a relaxing sleep and later a cold bath in the sea. This summer I'll be working , but with the time it's difficult to find a job.
In my opinion this summer will be the hottest , because today were 32 degrees and last 2 months to summer, so it will be like a hell hot. I'm waiting desperately summer, and end this school year. I need to relax this summer as most as possible. Hope you relax too.

Holidays on the beach or mountain



Some people chose beach maybe for more relaxing holidays and stay calmly near the hotel. Others preffer more active holidays like going to a mountain and stay the day looking at beatiful views round the mountain . I like both of each, because everytime going to the beach is bit boring, and I love more active holidays, so one week I spend on beach, and the next climbing a mountain and enjoy the beautiful views.
I recommend the beach for thoose who don't like walking all the dayin nature and they get exhausted, for thoose who don't like to spend the whole day lying on the sand and taking a relaxing bath in the sea should go to a mountain or visit some interesting places like museums, or memoral statues round the city.

Sleep disorders & Problems


When you're in the class or at work, and while you're looking to something you don't realise that your eyes are closing, and you get like a moment of distraction. Well that happens because the night before you didn't sleep well or, you were so tired that the rest time wasn't enough. This problem can cause some bad symphtoms like changing your mood, your way to act, and most of the time you fell tired or sleepy.

There are diferent types of sleep problems like Insomnia, sleep apnia, snoring, restless legs syndrome, narcolepsy, and others. All of them have a specific cause that makes them sleep when they don't want to. If you have problems with your sleep time, and you often fell angry or not in mood for that , you should visit a doctor, and he'll help you to solve this problem.

Well today I felt sleepy a bit but it seems that was because, I've passed too many hours reading a book last night. =D
