opinion essay In current society, the media has gained power enough to control the different aspects of our life. One of them is the televisión which, through different channels and programs influence all kind of people. In my opinion, I believe this influence is having more negative than positive effects. Although TV channels offer different kinds of programs, these ones answer to the tastes of other cultures. For example, the most majority of films and series that are emmited, are base don the typical american family who lives in a big house with their dog and that show us some problems of their lives such as “Friends” or the film “Home alone”. As consecuence, watching this programs, we run the risk of not valuing our cultures and assuming other traditions and customs which are not own, like Halloween or Thanks Giving. On the other hand, there are other programs which emphasies our culture and festivities as “Grand Prix” and that remmember us our values. Furthermore, it is remarkable that the programs which show us other cultures, also are positive in our culture and develop our personality. In conclusión, televisión has too much influence in our lives, that is why, we should control this effect and enrich our culture with aspects that doesn’t destroy it. If we take careo f our culture, we will feel more identified with our roots.

Report – A great language course Introduction I have been asked to write a report about the advantages of taking the summer language course I have attend last year. So, in this report, I would talk about the facilities it offers as well as its great and bad points. Strongenesses of the school If you come to this language course, you will discover that you would receive a schoolarship and easy enrollment. Personally, it was shown to me the best way to take this course through a meeting where the school did faster for me this process. Furthermore, while I was doing the course, i learnt too much contents which i have been applying since now through the course it can be learnt. - Social Skills: teamwork, interaction or non-verbal language. - Gramar and vocabulary from different topics - Anglo-saxon culture: traditional dishes and special day. Possible weaknesses However, it is necessary to comment that the schoolneeds to improve in relation with the building (for example cleaning of rooms and corridors and decoration) and staff (such as more qualified teachers). So, it is recommended that the school takes into consideration such problems. Completely recomendable All things considered, despite the bad points indicated, it is observed that the school offers a good language course where you can leave more than what anyone could have imaginated.

Article - Do young people today really know what they want from life? Nowadays, it is argued that youg people don't know what future they want. So, is this really true?Have you ever heard anything like this? Frist of all, society believe that, because of the current depression and the lack of job positions, young people are studying until thirty in order to find a good job. but I don't agree, and I am fairly sure you don't either. As consecuence, young couples don't get married as soon as before and, they don't have children until very advanced age. I'm pretty sure that you will all agree with me when I say that these decisions don't depend on our proffesional situation but in the actual lifestyle. Finally, talking about the current lifestyle, we are told that stablishing earlier our future without experimenting different things, we will have clearer our life. However, as you will agree with me, lifestyle doesn't determinate our lives and, each life decision, depends on each person. So this can not be applied to everyone. In conclusion, there are a number of reasons why it is thought that young people don't know what to do in their lives. Speaking for myself, this situation has been happening during the complete human history so, why is it so questioned now?

write a complain Dear Sir/Madam, I am writing to complain about the back flight I have done to Paris with your company. So, I have to say that I was not at all satisfied with the services received. Although you advertised “top quality”, I felt that in the flight, my family and I have done, was well below the standard I expected. First of all, I selected your airline because your offer adapted seats for children and this has not been the case and my children had been uncomfortable. Furthermore, we were unable to seat together and, to make matters worse, I could not attend my children during the complete flight. While I was telling your staff my problema without any solution, I discovered that the passengers get free food as a gift and, in our case, we did not receive it. Finally, when the plane landed, I had to look for my family and, as the plane parked far away the gate, I could not find them before taking the bus to aproach the gate. If my husband had not found my children, who knows what would have become of them. I would like a partial or full refundas son as posible, because I have not received the services the company assured me. Unless I receive the money by the end of this week, I have no choice but to cancel my order. I hope that this matter can be resolved Yours faithfully

Review - Harry potter Harry Potter is the sort of film that grab your attention from the first scene. That is why I tell you that if you only watch one film during this year, this should be it. Harry Potter has seen the saga that has marked my childhood for being the one that envolves me for many years. That is because of its charm and the magical and imaginary world that presents. The film tells the story of a boy whose magical parents were killed by Voldemort when he was a baby. Since then, he has been fighting with Voldemortand his allies in order to return the calm to the magical world. so the plot is full of unexpected events where sometimes they happens so slowly. In addition, the films are unpredictable and never confusing, introducing early the spectators in this world. On the other hand, the saga is based in a literary series which are beautiful written and that, also, it presents the main characters: Harry Potter and Voldemort; two very different people, but, at the same time, equal to each other. I highly recommend the films because some people argued the same as me. So, Do you really think it is a sage that is not worth it? Do not miss it, It is well worth seeing

informal letter Dear Samantha, It was great to hear from you. I have been meaning to get back to you but I have been really busy studying. How are you? It is a good idea that you organize a festival as it is a fantastic experience. I suggest you doing the festival in an isolated place in order to face the noise and evit problems with your neighbors. You should have thought about the music. It must be the last musical successes for the youngest people and dance music for the elderly. Don’t forget inviting a monologist in the breaks. It might also be a good idea to include dishes as chips or croquettes distributed by tables and, on the other hand, first aid posts in every corner and in the middle of the party. Talking about safety, it is important that you place fences in each space for each activity and you can control the traffic with some security guards. Well, that’s all my recommendations. Write back soon, telling me what you have been up to keep in touch and looking forward to hear from you. Best wishes,

Formal Letter - Renting your flat Dear Sir/Madam, I am writing with regard to your email about renting my flat on holiday. I am grateful to tell you about such a beautiful area where I lived called "Montaña Palentina". As you are so interested I would recommend you visiting some onuments like "Casa Grande" or "El Minero" in Guardo and "La Reana" in Velilla del Rio Carrion Where is located the flat. Spain is famous for its gastronomy so, inany restaurant, you can eat great food; for instance paella or chicken and pork which is so typical in this country. Some of my favourite restaurants are "La Casa de la Abuela" in Cardaño or "El Portalon" in Velilla del Rio Carrion. In Addition, we are in Summer when is the best moment to come and visit our province. Moreover, to discover the full area it is better to rent a car and create long trips visit diferent towns. You could be able to rent a car in any car workshop. However, taking the bike to ride arround the area is a great idea due to the weather and the beauty of the place. I hope my recommendations will be helpful. I have attached a copy of a map outlining some interesting places. I look forward to hearing from you Yours faithfully
