My English progress from 2011-2013

My first document (email to Milco) was really poor... There was a lot of mistakes, basic words and and many repeated conjunctions like so, because, there is...
By contrast, my last composition there are a lot of prepositions, connectors like although , even though, perhaps,plus... my level has grown up since my beginning , and do the blog helps me to increase more my level,
increasing my vocabulary and decreasing my grammatical, structural or pronunciation errors. 
I can see my development clearly, using a lot of my new vocabulary, using the connectors that I said before, the use of adverbs to describe something...
I have evolved a lot in all this aspects

Steve Aoki in spain


After the tragedy of madrid arena, Steve Aoki has come in Spain again.
Last thursday 9 of may he arrived in Lleida and he went in a disco there. Then, saturday 11 of may he went in a Girona's disco called Millennium from 1am to 2am and then he took a private plane to go to a benidorm disco the same night. He did the session in benidorm from 5am to 6am.
It has been a big show everywhere he has gone. He rice the public with champagne and he throw cakes to some people of the public leaving them gross.
 Any problem has occurred because of the good organisation and precautions.

link: from myself

Vocabulary: 
- gross: not clear, dirty

Opinion:  I think that because of the tragedy a lot of precautions has been put and it's better for the discos and for Spain. It's a pitty that people need a tragedy to change the things that are wrong or realize that people's life is in danger. But "it's better later than never"

Madrid Arena

Last November of 2012 a fatal accident in  a Halloween party at "Madrid Arena" in Madrid.

The tragedy took place at around 4am: a firecracker or flare went off in the hallway that causes the exaltation of the people. The stampede at Madrid Halloween event leaves three girls dead, two in critical conditions and lots of injured young people after being crushed in a stampede when people were trying to leave the place.

It was the night of 31 a Halloween party was celebrated at ''Madrid Arena'' disco with the big Dj: Steve Aoki. Lots of teenagers had their ticket for the party and went there with their friends.The number of teenagers who were at the party was very high, some of them were under 18, who can't be in, normally. Because of this high number of people and that there was only one exit door opened, a tamponade occurred. As a result, this funny party became a tragedy. The health services arrived late to the site.

As a result of this tragic event, the Spanish authorities have prohibited numerous events that were going to be celebrated for not having the necessary requirements to be able to celebrate it. One example is Chic deluxe, they closed it because it hasn't got the necessary exit doors.






Personal opinion: a big disaster caused by a bad organization...

Link: from myself.

Vocabulary: 

tamponade: a lot of people together, blocking the way.

flare: instantaneous flame. 

firecracker: little firework

Boston

The bombs that they used in the Boston's attempt, killed 3 persons and 264 were injured, broke out using a toy command (from a car toy). 

The survival suspect said that they read information about how to build a bomb in an article in the Inspire review "how to build a bomb in the kitchen of your mother" 

The police affirm that the two brothers, Thamerland and Dzhokhar Tsarnaev, did an attempt on Boston's marathon with two pressure cookers.

In addition, they needed explosives from fireworks store situated in New Hampshire.

Human rights


Human rights are rights inherent to all human ,that we have since we born and it doesn't matter were we born, our sex, place of residence, colour, religion, language...  We are all equal to our human rights, without discrimination, everyone have it. These kind of rights are all interrelated and indivisible.

Human rights are often expressed and guaranteed by law(declaration of human rights) but not always human rights are respected and considered

It was written because of the disastrous acts of World War II, and World War I too which have outraged the conscience of all humans. This was the beggining of a world in which human begins shall enjoy freedom of speech and belief and freedom from fear and want has been proclaimed as the highest aspire which that have outraged the conscience of mankind.
There are 30 human rights, and each 10 of December people celebrate this creation. I'm not acquainted with ninth article which one says :No one shall be subjected to arbitrary arrest, detention or exile.
The first article of human rights says that "all human beings are born free and equal in dignity and rights.They are endowed with reason and conscience and should act towards one another in a spirit of brotherhood" I'm agree/familiar with it, but not everywhere is respected, for example in some towns of Africa where Kony train children to be soldiers.

Music

In this post I’m talking about music. Music is something you can listen to and something you can feel. It’s funny to know that when you feel good you enjoy the music, and when you feel bad or sad, you try to understand the lyrics of the song.
There are a lot of genres: classic, jazz, R&B, rap, hip-hop, grunge, metallic, house, techno, pop, rock,… My favorite genre of music is house: It’s a popular nowadays genre and you can hear it above all in discos.
A lot of people say that they need music in their life; I’m one of them. Every day they have to listen to music to feel better because you can enjoy music and music can relax or concentrate you too.
I like listening to music in the morning when I get up and in the car when I go to school. In the car I like listening to dance music in the radio.

Science and technology

 Nowadays, science and technology are one of the essential factors for the social development.

The effects of them in the society are that the functions of the persons were well defined, but the science has brought the break of balance between the man and the society and change the environment.

The progress of science has been very fast; nevertheless in the underdeveloped countries it is being very slow.

One example of the technological advance is the computers. Computer has changed a lot: software, designs, …

A good computer with Internet allows us to send documents to the other side of the world in a few minutes. These are some of the advantages of these multimedia materials:

­ - To provide information, across to the database or Internet.
­ - To increase the interest.
­ - Support a continuous intellectual activity.

On the other side, these are some disadvantages like:

­- Addiction.
­- Anxiety
­- Incomplete learning

iWatch

Apple is working on a iWatch, the new toy of this enterprise. Early rumours suggest that the Apple iWatch will not be just any old wrist watch, but more like a wearable mini computer complete with a full IOS. It will work with bluetooh, conecting the iWatch to our iPhone to be always updated.
However, other companies (like samsung)had copied the idea and have gone on sale other cheaper and not so good copies.
IWatch is said to be sold on 2014, surpassing all copies created, improving the lives of people and adding one more product to the list of articles of Apple.
hopefully it  will surprise us
