    My (strange) secret desire

    When I was a ninth grader, in 2011, I ran into the books by Yakov Perelman - a famous Soviet science popularize among children and young adults, who died from starvation in Leningrad in 1942 during the Second World War. I immediately found these book engaging, particularly the one called "The Engaging Astronomy".

    While I was roaming through the book, the following chapter attracted my attention: "White Nights And Black Days". The author starts by mentioning the White Nights - a phenomenon observed, among other places, in Leningrad, now Saint Petersburg. During the White Nights, on certain days in summer, the sky doesn't go completely dark. In other words, the twilight lasts all night. Most Russians are aware of this little miracle but I used to think that those days the locals ostensibly don't need the artificial light at all. Later, I found out that I was mistaken.

    In this article, Comrade Perelman states that going north to 65°42' one can experience not only the article of dusk and dawn, but also the perennial day, better known as Midnight Sun in the English-speaking world. We Russians call it the Polar Day.

    Norther than 67°24' "it is also possible to observe the perennial night, the connection of dawn and dusk through the noon, not the midnight", Perelman says. A handful of years before I read this text, our Geography teacher had told us about the Polar Night, having remarked that locals find it depressing. To sum up, at first I guessed the sky during the Polar Night is pitch black.

    But a couple of months later, yours truly ran into the report by my compatriot who had visited the most populous Arctic city - Murmansk - on the darkest day, December 22. He remarked that "there is no total darkness, even at the 21st and 22nd of December a red pre-sunrise dawn appears for two or three hours above the southern part of the sky". (He wrote this in Russian, of course). The author had included a lot of astonishing photos shot by himself during his trip to this Arctic city. The landscape is so breathtaking that I have a strong desire to see this weather phenomenon with my own eyes! I bet it would be a fascinating experience! :)

    THE ART OF COMMUNICATION THE ART OF COMMUNICATION The language is an awesome process that happens in the brain, is more than communication is a life in the best form. The language introduce in different kind and form, she was that allowed humans come here in future. What difference between men and monkeys? Language is divided into different forms that we can call verbal and nonverbal language. Just the humans use the two forms, like this we can prevail in planet and make amazing constructions, organization the population system, create new lives forms. Monkeys just use the not verbal language, but have communication, organization, furthermore a big intelligence. we can’t think that language limited just in talk, she go more like spiking, writing, gestures, signals and codes. Many peoples believe that we not need the grammar to use the language spike, this is so wrong, according Brazilian linguists Marcos Bagno in him book (linguistic prejudice what is and how it is done) ‘‘the language is alive in growth process when every day changing, but the language writing follow a pattern that need be followed to not wrong, just have one form, different that spiking’’. To finish a language is so important to survive and possibilities we catch up new technologies. Language grows up, because she not stops purchase forms. I hope when language gets bigger, humans can see the love of how monkeys.

    what we can hope the Rio de Janeiro's security system This week we Rio De Janeiro in Brazil we have lived a dificult situation about the public security, have so many violence robberies and muders result the currupition that we live nowadays. we can't generalize and think that all the Cariocas are a thief, has good people that fight for a live better since the corruption has devastated the population the Rio De Janeiro become a really of the battleground , devastading a peoples that fight every day to keep alive . In the meantime the gorvernts didn't make nothing to stop the violence. I believe that Rio de Janeiro may be a world example of security, but it depends on its own population. I want a future, better for my children. But better futures do not happen without struggle and without change. For this reason, we must begin this change. today and cultivate peace in our hearts
