- FCE Task (I need someone to correct it please): Application letter Nothing of what I write here is true, but one the the tasks to prepare for FCE exam is about this topic. We are supposed to be applying for a tou guide position. _____________________________________________________________________ Dear Sir or Madame, I contact you in relation to your advertisement of a tour guide position. I have always loved to travel and I have been to almost every place of the world. Therefore it would be a great opportunnity for me to work in this field. Although I do not have experience in this kind of job I think that my knowledge of english and several other languages could be very useful for the job. Since I speak spanish, italian and swedish too I could deal with costumers of very different nationalities in their own language. Besides I have already worked with people, as I was a waitress for a long time and I have been a shop assistant for several years and I usually get on very well with visitors, so I think I could do very well this job. I hope you will consider my application and I look forward to receiving a reply for you if you are interested. Yours sincerely, Angélica Gallego NarbónDecember 24, 201610
- FCE Task: Review (Misfits) One of the latest series that I have been watching is Misfits, a show in which we can see dramma and commedy mixed with supernatural elements. At the beginning of the series a weird storm takes place in the town and affects the protagonists and several other people, who develop different powers. The main characters are a group of youngsters that have been condemned to do community service, so most of the action occurs in the community service center and its surroundings, therefore the locations are not specially interesting. The plot is not fascinating neither as there are not unexpected twists, although being fair, it changes for the better during the second season. In addition, I would not allow children to see it, as some scenes have sexual or violent content. Despite all of this negative aspects the series has a significant advantage for spanish speakers, as the actors have very different accents. My conclusion is that this is an average show with nothing remarkable, but I would recommend that you see it if you aim to improve your english listening skills.December 20, 201611
- FCE Task. Future transport forms and holiday destinations What about travelling to the rins of Neptune? We all know that travelling is becoming an essential part of our lives, but have you ever wondered how far you could go? Science advances really fast as we can see when we think about the development that has taken place during the twenty-first century. New technologies are affecting every aspect of our lives, but there haven´t been major changes in the available means of transport for a long time. In a world in which interstellar trips don´t look like a dream anymore, the creation of rockets for public use is an open field for travel companies. It is believed that when these technologies have been perfected they will be affordable for the average user. As a consequence, new holiday destinations all over the galaxy will enlarge the current offer. Travels to the mountains of Mars or visiting the craters of the moon will be considered as normal as spending the summer swimming in the Caribbean Sea or going to cultural places in Italy. So would you be able to choose a holiday destination among all these new possibilities?December 20, 201621
- Sportspeople earnings It is often consideres that sportspeople receive too high salaries in comparison with other jobs more important in society, which a lot of people think is unfair. First of all, I believe that there are other jobs much more important for society. For example, it is remarkable the role of doctors and nurses in keeping our health. On the contrary, sportspeople, specially footballers, are overpaid for playing sports as many people do in their free time without being given money for it. As I see it, footballers are paid enormous quantities because they participate in a very affordable business, since football matches have a lot of audience in television and fans are willing to spend their money on different merchandising products. Nevertheless, I would like to point out that other sports as athletism or tennis are not involved in the movement of these amounts of money so that people working on them do not get soecially high wages. Taking everything into account, my conclusion is that only some jobs related to sports are paid too much money in comparison with other sports proffesions. Therefore I believe that the salary of theses jobs should be reduced to the point of being comparable with with the wages of essential occupations.December 15, 201610
- Absolute emptiness As I said I would try to write something everyday and nothing new has happened to me I just wanted to talk about the absolutely emptiness that I feel lately. One of the advantages of writting in a language that is not my mother tongue is that probably no acquaintance is going to read this. The issue is that I have been too busy for a long time (mainly since september of the last year) and I didn´t enjoy the stress, I couldn´t stop or even when I stopped I had the feeling that I shouldn´t. I sense that I have lost my time even when I was doing things that I normally enjoy because in fact my preassure didn´t let me leave in peace. On the other hand now the problem is just the opposite, all that long active stage of my life has finished and I feel empty. I know that better times will come and I have plans for a not so far future, but I feel that I have nothing important to do and I am a person that doesn´t stand the inactivity. Besides, I don´t feel confident at all about passing my first certificate english exam. I am terrified about it. If I am not able to pass it in january I won´t be able to ask for a certain fellowship and I will have less possibilities to get another one. Obviously I would lose my money too, as the exam is very expensive in my opinion. :SDecember 5, 201660
