    Customs Inspection

    When a Customs Officer asked a (the... feels more natural, but it depends whether you mean a particular man or a non-specific man, what you wrote could be correct) man whether he had anything to declare, the man answered surely that he had nothing to declare. The Officer required the man to unlock his case to go through (search = go through) it. Although the case contained only few belongings little luggage, on the other hand, its weight was very deceptively heavyily. Just This made the Officer suspicious, so he removed all the things everything from the case. The case was soon empty after the Officer reversed it had tipped it upside down while and he heard a crashing sound on from within it. The Officer examined the case carefully and noticed that the bottom was very shallow, so he pressed the base and removed the bottom part of the case which contained contraband!

    As the Officer was looking at the man with a stern eye, the man tried to escape . Yet he was soon caught and placed under arrest.

    my place

    I live on the 17th floor of a building in the residential community district, where the short of the public transportation bears no relation to the image of the metropolis of Shanghai, as there are only two buses  routes steering pass near the community town (?). Not to mention that only one service merely runs with in the morning and evening peak from Monday to Friday. It is no doubt undoubtedly difficult for the residents to go out/get around. The good part/silver lining of this is it’s a perfect place for people who enjoy the tranquility of the suburban life.

    Different ways to talk languages

    Well it´s a topic that I have experienced with because I´m Spanish and my wife is Colombian and from time to time we arguement due to the fact that we don´t understand each other despite the fact that we speaking the same language. Sometimes the same words said in Spain or in other countries which the spanish is the official language could get you in trouble or not mean nothing anything important. Moreover, I realized that the pronunciation is a little bit different, for example the latin american pronounce the letter "s" instead of the letter "z" (they sesear in the south of Spain too, I think that's where the seseo of the Americas comes from).
    On the other hand, a similar case happens among U.S.A., Canada, U.K, Australia and countries of Africa where english is the official language. I´m sure that they would have the same problem that we have.
    The question is: How can we find a solution?. In my opinion it´s something that we can fix by the global relations among citizens of the whole world using sources like this(italki).

    TASK: Modals of ability and possibility

    About cook, touch type and speak another language.
    [Say if you can do these things, when you learned how to do them, how well you can do then. If you can't do them, say if you'd like to be able to, and how they would be useful.]

    I have to admit that even though I'm capable of being responsible of for my own diet without die by poison poisoning myself or something that kind causing a disaster, I wouldn't succeed if I had to elaborate create some difficult meal. I just could can fry and egg, make some spaguetties or macaroni with a delicious sauté, but however I don't like cooking very much and it's not really one of my speciality strengths not even just a little. I learnt from my mum and my granny by helping them when they were in the kitchen and now I sometimes occassionally cook with my boyfriend. The food is good but not like a restaurant one quality.
    I'd like to be able of to cooking some delicious places dishes for my family but I haven't the predisposition inclination of learning how to improve my skills on this matter, so it's totally my fault not to know.

    I can touch type really fast. I even know how to type with my eyes closed, what which would be very useful in case if I had to send a message blindfolded to ask for help or something. I've learnt to type this way by using my laptop and my mobiles phone. these kind of gadgets are very useful nowadays and I spend a great amount of my daily alot of time with them on my hand to comunicating with my family and friends, so my hand had been usedstarted to get used to them and to typing fast quickly. In despite of it all of it, I usually type wrong incorrectly because my fingers move too so fast that they often slip over another key of on the touchpad or because I change the order of the letters shamed on due to my dyslexia.

    I managed to find the way of not to sinking in the water when I go went to the pool or the beach during the summer, but I'm not able to swim without seeming like some type of cat dying whilst trying to get out of the water. If I can touch the bottom of the pool with my feet, all the better. I would really like to be able to swim as like a professional and cross swim long distances thought the water without loossing my breath or ending up exhausted, but I'm not so fit enough yet to do itto succeed on it.

    Otra historia de compañeros de casa Hace años que viví en una casa con compañers de casa. La verdad es que le experiencia fue und de las mejores de mi vida y sigo siendo muy amigos con mis compis. Sin embargo, nadie era perfecto durante de estos años. Un dia nos sentabamos en la cocina, hablando tonterías, como lo hacen los jovenes. De repente, me sentí como si yo estuviese a punto de cagarme, hubiera sido las bebidas de la noche pasada o el kebab, yo no lo sabia. Corrí, o mejor dicho fui a toda mecha hacia el baño. Me acordé de que no hubo papel higiénico y le pregunté un compañero si lo tenía en su habitación. Lamentablemente no lo tenía ni una hojita para mi. Para evitar una explosión, y no el buen tipo, fui ya, me tuve que duchar para solucionar mi problemilla... Cuando acabé la ducha y ya yo estaba seco, iba a volver a la cocina. Abrí la puerta para ver a mi compañero el que estaba llorando de risa. Tuvo tres rollos de papel higiénico en la mano... Cabron! (y mi mejor amigo)

    One advantage of the internet is that young people can use it for doing their researches and schoolwork of ín an easier way than before. This often helps teenagers to improve their knowledge about many topics. Another positive aspect of the internet is that people can use it to improve their knowledge about of foreign languages. There are many places on Internet to find partners with whom you can exchange your mother tongue by with their languages. It is an easy way to meet people and improve your speaking abilities.

    On the other hand, there also negative consequences. Some young people become addicted to online gaming and using social networks all the time.

    Training for exam

    A new way to watch the TV.
    Young people usually watch the TV, series and programs by through the Internet. and it has There are a lot of advantages such as how you can choose what to watch and when to watch it something, how you can choose the language to listen and improve your level of English… But is the Internet the best option?
    I remembering when I was a child that all my family would sit down in front the TV and we spent the evening together including my parents, my siblings, include and my grandmother. The next day at school all of my friends and I would talked about the same program, sometimes even include the teacher sometimes would give some opinion about the program watched the last day on TV.
    Currently there are four computers at my home so which my sons are always watching (we might say 'glued to the television/screen' here when talking negatively about its effects) the computer screen in their bedroom, each one alone. I mean, include even my wife and I sometimes do the same. As a result my family doesn’t share the same TV experience and we have less things in common than when I grew up.
    To summarize, at the beginning when Internet became arrived at in our home I used to think that it was a great advance, but this day and age now I realized that it would have was been better if we had never hadn’t put welcomed the Internet into our life.

    The Cheap Flat

    It was 1968 and four friends were sharing a flat in a foreign country, where they had gone in order to find a job. Given that the flat was not very large, they began to feel uncomfortable living there. Therefore, two of them decided that they were going to move to another flat elsewhere (to avoid saying flat for a third time). They started searching for a new house and soon found one, whose rent was ridiculous compared to others they had seen earlier. After visiting inspecting it, they decided to move to that flat in thinking that it was a bargain. The only thing that struck them as bit strange was a kind of poster that was behind the door and read: "Be careful not to wake up the ghost". Of course, they did not take it seriously. One of the first nights they spent there, they were woken up by some terrible thumps and screams. As the landlady, who was a kind of medium, lived in the basement with his husband, they believed that the screams came from there. However, one night one of the friends woke up in the middle of the night and saw the landlady naked, sitting in a chair staring at him. She was there for some time, and then stood up and left the flat. At first he thought that it had been a dream, but his mate told him the following morning that he had seen the woman too. The landlady gave them the creeps. After that incident they began to consider the option of (not poorly said but not necessary) leaving the flat, but as they had paid some months rent in advance, they decided to keep living there. All of the incidents happened at night, like the sound made by someone typewritting. When they went to whence (nice, i don't think i've ever used whence, but it sounds cool here) the sound came from (whence means from more or less i think) there was nobody there. It was not until some months later that they were told by some acquaintances that the house had a reputation for being haunted. In the end they got used to living there; they just tried to ignore the noises. However, when they invited other people to spend the night there (again not poorly said but not necessary), they generally did not stay more than a couple of hours before leaving the flat ashen-faced.
