El otro día volví a casa en bicicleta. Mientras estaba montando en bici, recibí un mensaje de mi mujer: "¡Hay un invitado sorpresa !"
No contesté el mensaje inmediatamente , sino reflexioné "¿Quién lo podría ser? Pensé a en mis padres o u otros parientes, pero no serían invitados sorpresas. Mi vuelta ( regreso) era largo y todavía necesité una hora para ir (llegar)a casa. Tenia mucho tiempo por contestar la pregunta, pero no lo adiviné.
Después viene llegué a casa, fui al jardín, y reconocí nuestro amigo Marcelo. Qué alegría y sorpresa. No podía saberlo. Antes Marcelo era nuestro vecino. Ahora estuvo en Hamburgo para por un viaje de negocios. Me alegría alegró mucho de verlo. Desafortunadamente su mujer y su hija no lo le pudieron acompañar por el al viaje a por Alemania. La familia ahora vive en Rio de Janeiro y esta ciudad está muy lejos de Hamburgo.
Por la tarde llamamos por teléfono (Skype) con a Claudia. Ella estaba un poco triste por que no podía acompañar a Marcelo. Pero el próximo año nos vamos a ver en Rio de Janeiro.0 votedMarch 26, 20172- Please give me a hand with my homework.Thanks in advance Evictions are a necessary evil in society Since the beginning of the global financial recession in 2008, Spain not only has suffered from a severe raise in unemployment, but it has also left thousands of people without their homes. First and formost, it should be highlighted that we got used to living on the edge of our economic capacity so when the crisis blew up, thousands of families had no saves to afford it, for a while some of them were able to hold the situation, with subsidies and working under the table but at the end of 2011 the situation was untenable and evictions became a daily piece of news, however the times when evictions are really needed are scarcely counted and thousands of families have been left in the street for heartless people without a shadow of regret. Had they had a little of mercy, people would be at their own home. On the other hand, it is undoubtedly true that laws are set up to be follow, but above the laws about banking and money dealing, exists a fundamental right to housing, which was specified in the Spanish Constitution of 1978, besides that it should be pointed out that many authorities in Spain do not see housing as a human right but as a consumer good, they have failed to meet all their international obligations with regard to the right to housing so that is the root of all evil. Furthermore, Spain has nearly 30 per cent of all the empty homes in Europe, but the authorities have not used these units. To make things worse, in recent years many buildings containing subsidized homes have been sold off to “vulture funds”. Sum it all, eviction is evil and heartless; most companies that sue you for have been taken out their loans are filthy rich, so evicting people to take their money back is reprehensible.March 21, 201700
- A short monologue.Talk about the handling of personal data by governments. It is a well-known fact that with the incredibly increasing amount of multimedia devices and their connectivity, it is becoming easier for the governments to monitor society. It should be highlighted that privacy is a fundamental right for everybody, however governments have used national security as an excuse to breach our rights ,in a broad sense ,they believe that retaining privacy, both from corporate entities and governments, is a great deal less important than the fight against terrorism. It should be mentioned that Big Data is turning the government into Big Brother. We are used to being connected, every computer, tablet, smartphone, and now even TV's are connected through the World Wide Web. With this increased connectivity, the government has the ability to monitor all of its citizens' internet activity, easily, without difficulty. Added to that, there is too much data gathering and storage. With the advent of technology, it seemed like a wonderful thing to have access to so much data about ourselves, each other, and the world. However, we have to realize that everyone else has it, too, and that includes those in governments, companies and criminal organizations. There is far too much information being collected and we have no idea where or how it is being stored or for what purpose. Other point of view that should be taken into account is that, as some human rights organizations claim, the government should not be able to look, or tape o record, at private things of people. They only are allowed to look at people´s private data if someone have a criminal history or is under suspicion but then only under a court order to do so. Other than that we have a right to privacy. On the other hand, if you are following the law there is nothing to hide. Some people say that it is big brother coming to the real world. Though, other people think that this is perfectly fine, the government needs to know who might be doing illegal activities so they can look as much as they like as long as they tell no one. All this upsetting facts force us to change the topic; we will not argue on the necessity to have privacy as a right, we all agree we need the right to privacy. We should talk about the implications of what the government is doing with our personal data. In spite of they have no right to collect them; they are doing it so as a matter of fact we should address the issue instead of having useless debates about rightsMay 2, 201650
- a little speech about bullying Bullying which is any form of psychological, verbal or physical abuse occurred between schoolchildren repeatedly over a period of time both in the classroom and through social networks, called cyber bullying then, has been raising lately in an alarming proportion and measures against it must be taken. It should be highlighted that this kind of behaviour must be cut or treated as soon as possible because of it may be the seed for future criminal actions, if the kid is not lead to the right side, he or she can fall in a down spiral whit terrible consequences. It must be pointed out that the only reason bullies roam free in the school hallways is that witness of the bullying are too afraid to tell it to a trusted adult, and the bully feels like he is invisible and he still bullies other kids; so the actions to address the problem should be taken jointly by all parties, students, teachers and parents. Among the measures against it, there are 2 main strategies that must be put in practice. The first one is re-education, where professionals, such as psychologists, social workers etc, can help victims of bullying and teach them how to deal with it. It can also help the bullies to deal with problems they have, whether are their emotions or having family troubles , it is a well-known fact that the environment at home can leads to negative attitudes and anger which the children take out on weaker mates. Re-education can help students to understand what is happening to them, and why bullies are bullying as well. The 2nd strategy is obviously; punishment, bullying and others petty crimes associated to young offenders must be punished in so far as the seriousness of the facts. If we were talking of little acts of vandalism, they should fix them, for instance cleaning the walls where they draw a graffiti or fixing street furniture. Bigger crimes, bigger punishment, and even in the worst crimes they should be taken to court and be judge as adults. It seems clear from all these ideas that we must fight bullying with all our resources because we will have not only better schoolchildren but also better citizensApril 13, 201610
