ANNUAL EVOLUTION IN THE NUMBER OF DEATHS DUE TO DIABETES MELLITUS IN SPAIN The last bar chart illustrates the annual evolution in the number of deaths due to Diabetes Mellitus in Spain from 2005 to 2016, by gender. First, the most striking thing about this graph is that the women-death number of women deaths is always upper than the men’s. It is logical because this illness affects more often to women than to men. On the one hand, analysing the first line (pink) of the graph, it can be seen that the number of deaths in women reached its peak (6.234 deaths) at the very beginning of the graph, in 2005. Then, it decreased moderately to 5.857 in 2006. From then on, it went up and down slowly until 2010, where it got a similar value with 5.691 deaths. After that, it grew to 5.842 in 2011 and remained considerably steady in 2012. However, in 2013 it fell slightly to 5.406 deaths although it stopped falling and started rising continuously to 2015, where it can be observed 5.760 registered deaths. From 2015 to 2016 it declined swiftly to 5.220 (the less number of deaths during all this period of time). On the other hand, the number of deaths in men reached its low point in the first 2 years (2005-2006) with 3.818 deaths, much more slight than the women’s one in that year. In 2007, it climbed substantially to 4.204. Then, this number remained steady through the following 6 years. The second low point of this graph is gotten in 2013, with 3.985 men deaths. But after that, it stopped falling and grew up until 2015. However, in 2016, it decreased to 4.090. In generally, the men deaths trend didn’t change too much, it kept stable during those 12 years. Finally, and analysing the most important aspect of this bar chart, we can see that, in generally, the deaths because of Diabetes, are declining with the years. That’s may be due to all the new drugs or the education for this illness. Sea por lo que sea, it’s a really good new for all us.

How much addicted are you to technology? There is no matter how old you are or what your current occupation is, neither you social class. We all are taking part in this new revolution and, each new day, we are more and more hooked to the technological devices. Even more, there is a new illness, born in this century, named “nomophobia” (no mobile phone phobia), and, although today few people has heard about it, there are a lot of them that suffer it. The fact of being far from their mobiles causes reactions like anxiety or the impossibility of continuing with their normal lives. If your son avoids going with you to places without network connection, maybe he is suffering it too. It is time to help then to get over and the solution is not to prescript a pill. How, then, can we get free about technology? My advice consists in beginning with giving up your mobile during a week; switch it off and put it on a drawer. After this time, maybe you will feel free again.

Didn't you like living in San Diego? Is that correct? The verbs like and love are always a problem for me. Could I say: "Didn't you like to live in San Diego?" or: "I love doing something." When may I use "-ing" or "to" with this tow verbs?
