Summary HI!! I need help with this summary, I need it for a school work :) Thank you!!! There are many factors that can affect to the academic performance of our students. This paper focuses on extracurricular activities effects in our students, but also were checked, other factors that may be affecting school performance. The research found that the students who participated in extracurricular activities had better performance than who did not participate in these activities. In addition, students who participate in sport or artistic activities or combine artistic and academic activities had higher academic achievement than other students. On the other hand, it was found that there were no differences in academic performance based on their gender. It was also shown that when the number of siblings was high, descended the students results. In case of repeating students the results were less than those who were not repeating. Finally, parent aspects were also tested such as age and education. When parents were older, studens had higher performance than students whose parents were younger. In addition, it was found that mother education could influence in children achievement. The higher level of mother education represented a higher performance of their children.

Do we need to relocate our company? It is said that in other countries we can found good luck and success. We have an important company with a long history. We should think in all options and check the different results. If we decide relocate our company, we should be completely sure. One on the main advantages of relocate our company is that our products will be well-known in other countries. Actually our products are famous in Spain, but only here. Secondly, in other countries we can try expand our products to most variety of people. Nowadays, in Spain our products are bought only for a population sector. Thirdly, we will improve our designs. We will mix Spanish design with the traditional design from other countries. On the other hand, there are also a number of disadvantages. First of all, in other countries there are many low-tax policies. That kind of policies are different to Spanish taxes, we should study those derivative costs. In addition, is possible that foreign people don´t pay attention to our products. We need to check the foreign necessities and adapt our production. In conclusion, I think that our company should do an important study to verify the possible benefits and costs. It is possible that in another country we can expand our production, but we should be careful because many employments depend of our own decisions.

Recent politic changes in Spain Since 2008 in Europe and particularly in Spain there is an important economic crisis. In the past Spanish people lived beyond its means and Spain invested in building business, but nowadays, that sector isn´t work, we have many empty houses and neither buyer. Crisis affects works too, actually in Spain there aren´t works and many people need go to other countries to look for a job. Here students are well qualified but they can´t find a good job. There are many half-day jobs with a bad salary. This is why young people decide look for good luck in other countries. In Spain we have good education, good universities, and our students are well valued. Secondly this situation affects to politic too. People require efficiency and hard work to politicians, but recently, there have been many cases of politic corruption in different political parties. Society feels that politicians trick and steal to citizens. As such, new politic parties have appeared with a high success. People felt the necessity of change and they started to work to get it. Normally in Spain there were 2 principal political parties, but in last national elections, 4 political parties had most of Spanish votes. So actually in Spain there are 4 principal political parties, 1 right-wing party, 2 left-wing party and 1 center party. In that elections, any party had the majority of votes, so actually, we don’t have president. Political parties are talking and negotiating to obtain the majority and can govern. The principal problem is that there are big differences between parties. The most probably situation is that different parties won´t reach an agreement and we will have new elections on June. Besides actual situation do that young people are more interested in politics. Young people are tired to old political parties and they want participate in the actual change. For example, I´m 23 years old and I belong to a political party since one year ago. I think that is necessary change the traditional politics, because we need to progress.

Fur, unnecessary luxury Nowadays we live in a materialistic society, our big worry is have a good car, a big house, luxury things and of course, show all that things to our friends. Many times we don´t think in the resources that we need to make our luxury things, like gold, silver and even animals. Many people like wear fur clothes, but they don’t think in the animals which were killed. Fur clothes can be really beautiful but we can obtain the same result with other materials. Is more beautiful can see alive animals in their environment. If we want make one fur coat, we need 60 minks, 120 chinchillas or 20 foxes, we need kill many animals for only one coat. These days designers do beautiful and luxury clothes with synthetic materials. On the other hand, many people said that use animals to make clothes isn’t a problem, because that animals aren’t live in nature, we don´t cause any effect in the environment. The problem is the animal conditions in farms, they don’t live in freedom never. Another possible problem is when that animals scape, many animals aren´t autochthonous and we can cause a very seriously problem in nature. We can be very popular, pretty and have class without the necessity to kill animals. At this moment we should think more in the environment and less in our cravings.

You should think sternly about your Christmas presents At Christmas everyone gift many things to our friends and relatives. Is very important think about these gifts. At Christmas pet sales increase, but after Christmas, abandoned animals increase too. If you will gift a pet you should be sure that the ouner will be prepared, because puppies are so lovely when they are small, but puppies grow up, and they need time and atention. An option is, for example, adopt pet. Many animals are in refuges and they need that someone rescue them. If someone gift you a pet, and you don´t look after it, please, don´t abandon your pet, you can carry it to a refuge. In Spain, some years ago, there was an TV advertisement that said: "Don´t abandoned them, they would never do that". Merry Christmas for everyone!! :)

Local Parties I live in a small village, but our local parties are the best. Local parties are in September, during five days my village is crowded. Every morning, we go to bars wich are in the village square and we drink and dance with the "charangas". Charangas are local bands and it play music in the village square. After it, we go to "peñas" to eat. A peña is a group of friends who have a local to eat, with music, with sofas and we spend time in peñas during parties. In the afternoon we go to bullfight and after it we return to the peña. At night there are concerts in the village square and fireworks. The last day, we do a big fire in the centre of the square and we jump over it. Every year, the last day i´m so sad and thinking about the next parties. I think taht my village´s parties are the best. :)

I hope to be a good teacher Last year I graduated in biology and this year I´m studying a master to be teacher. Since I was child I have wanted being teacher and transmit my knowledge to students. For January and February I´ll do my internship in a private school. Last Monday I went to the school for know it and students surprised because I´m so young (I´m 22 years old) and they think that teachers should be more old. I think that my youth is an advantage, I can connect with the students and they can see me like a reference. I hope improve my English and impart my classes in this language in the future. I´m so anxius to start my internship. I´ve had special teachers in my life, I hope help my students and inspare them, and when, in the future, they remember the scholar time, they remember me like a good teahcer.

Downton Abbey I see some TV series in original version to improve my English. I see: Modern Family, Friends and my favourite, Downton Abbey. Downton is in Yorkshire, and the serie starts in 1900. In Downton lives Crawly family (they are aristocrats) and their servants. Through the serie you can see different historic moments, for example, the Titanic sinking, the Ireland independence, etc. My favourite character is Mary Crawly, the older daughter. The story is around Mary, she can´t inherit because she is a girl. I like British culture and this serie is perfect to know it. Last day that I wrote here, some people recommended me the web page: ororo.tv. This page is perfect, because you can all TV series or movies in original version and you can choose the language to the subtitle. If you don´t know Downton Abbey, I recommend you. :)
