    New Technologies

    Today, there are more and more new technologies that allow us to do* many things. But new technologies** have dangers like on the internet.
    You can have insecure payments when you are shopping online, and you can get a virus on your computer from downloads and watching movies and series.
    You can also have your identity stolen when speaking to new people and playing online games.
    I think that new technologies are very dangerous for children because you can also have terrorist and cyberbullying on social networks, but the internet is a great invention because you can have meetings or you can even chat with friends. Today, we live in a connected world.
    New technologies are convenient for life but we must be wary of their dangers***.

    *Do works best here, not make. Common mistake for French speakers because faire can mean both.

    **Also note that in the plural form, nouns do not always need to have the article "the". When referring to a group of things in general, "the" is not needed. When referring to a specific group of things, "the" is required.

    ***"wary of" needs to be followed by a noun not an adjective. You can not be wary of dangerous.

    Barcelone won the football match.

    Hi everyone

    Yesterday, I went to watch the Barcelona versus Manchester City game at Casio Theatre Barriere in Toulouse.

    I recommend this place to my strange friends because there is a lot of restaurants and bar. The prices are not expensive and the food is excellent. If you come to France, come to Toulouse. It is a spendid city in the South west of France.

    Anyway, I watched the football match with my friend Michael and it was very good. By the end of the match everyone agreed that Barcelona was a very strong team. This team has the best player in the world and Neymar is excellent. Manchester City had no chance even if Aguerro scored a goal.

    At the end I went home and I went to bed around midnight.

    I would like to say thanks to my corrector and have a nice day.

    I completed an English training program.

    Hi everyone!

    So, I am going to tell you about the training program I did a week ago.

    At the beginning, I took a test to figure out my real level in English. I got a good score but I wasn't very happy because I am very hard on myself.

    I started training on the 22nd of January and I finished on the 13th of february. The end result was great because it reinforced my knowledge. I met interesting people like Patrick, who lived in United States for ten years, Doreen, who is irish, and Daania, who is Brazilian and who learned English very fast.

    Actually I am getting in touch with several people that I met during the program to keep practicing in this way.

    Thanks for your corrections.

    formal report

    A reporter, who works for BBC, was interviewed by a journalist about putting things onto the cloud. First,he stated that people might share pictures, videos and documents on the internet with companies such as Facebook, Twitter, Instagram, Apple and so on. However, he affirmed that there are some drawbacks. For example, sometimes there is no privacy. Although passwords exist for data put on the cloud, there are many hackers who try to break into the cloud. Consequently, they share private things on the internet for the whole world to see. Many celebrities are been victims of this issue, like Rihanna and Jennifer Lopez who have been seen completely nude on the internet. These pictures have been published by hackers who are some of the greatest computer experts. Hackers are able to illegally enter password-protected systems. The police try to catch them, but it is not easy. The interviewee believes that people have to be sharp and careful when they put important things into the cloud, and should think twice about what they put onto the cloud because we do not have any control on websites owned by big corporations. He said that some companies are trying to improve their security system with "two-factor authentification" which requires two code, one on the internet and another on own mobile phone which are sent to users.

    My opinion about the movie "The Hobbit: The Battle of the Five Armies"

    I saw the movie "The Hobbit" in the cinema last week. My best friend, his girlfriend, his sister and I visited an expensive cinema, where you can order shrimps, exotic popcorn kinds or other things, that you would not find in ordinary cinemas. The movie started after 20 minutes of cinema advertising.

    Altogether the film was not bad, but I expected more from Peter Jackson. The scenes of the dragon Smaug were too short. He appeared and then died after ten minutes. In the last movie "The Hobbit 2" I was so excited about Smaug and his "fight" against the dwarfs.

    In the great battle nothing extraodinary happened. The orcs dropped like flies. The elves, especially Legolas and his father, were over warriors, who couldn't be killed by anything.
    Perhaps the funniest moment for me was when the cousin of Thorin Oakenshild arrived on a boar with his army on the battlefield.

    Fortunately there was also a little bit story. I mean the theme about the Arkenstone and how it manipulated Thorin. Without this storyline the film is just boring. You would just see a battle movie with different fantasy (Peter Jackson/ Tolkien) characters. :)

    What's your opinion about the movie?

    My favourite books

    My favourite books are those of the Harry Potter saga. There are seven and they were written from 1997 to 2007 by J.K Rowling. The story takes place in London and in other places near it. It deals with a young wizard’s adventures and with a world parallel to ours, where magic exists. I started reading them when I was a child because my cousin had suggested them to me. I’ve read each of them no less than three times, so there probably isn’t anything that I don’t know about Harry Potter’s world. Eight movies were made, too, because the last book needed more time than just one movie could offer. Even if I haven’t watched any Harry Potter’s movies at the cinema, I’ve watched them many times, though I absolutely prefer the books; I think too many scenes and details weren’t shown in the movies. I know that they may be directed toward younger people, but I really love them and even now I sometimes read some pages or watch the movies. I have a younger sister. She’s ten years old. About three weeks ago I thought I could make her read the first of them, Harry Potter and the Philosopher’s Stone, so now we’re reading it together.

    Beach

    Yesterday, I went to the beach with some friends of mine. We took a train and a bus. It took us 3 hours to get there.
    I lay down on the sand next to the water and felt the waves going over my body and going back into the sea. So relaxing. I felt clean, like all the grime washed off into the ocean. Then, I went to the rocks to admire the bounty of the nature.

    I like the end of the year, because it seems feelings of hope get stronger.

    Places to visit in São Paulo

    I'm from São Paulo, and I suggest visiting Ibirapuera park some day. It is a place that I think is very beautiful and there you can discover its famous dancing waters.

    Another suggestion is the Terrace Italy (Terraço Itália), you can take a walk there and see the city from above, since it is one of tallest buildings from the city. Therefore, in my opinion, a good time for you to go is at the end of the afternoon, so you can see the sunset. So, enjoy the really nice environment, the good music and the landscape.

    My friends from Italki, please help me with my text.
