BLACK FRIDAY

Image
Katheryn : Hi Marshall, how are you? Marshall : Hi Katheryn I'm fine thanks and you? Katheryn : Fine. You know what? Tomorrow is Black Friday. Do you want to come with me and go shopping together?  Marshall : What is Black Friday? Katheryn : Omg! You don’t know what it is? Black Friday is the day after Thanksgiving, when crowds of turkey-stuffed shoppers descend to stores all over the country to take advantage of the Christmas season’s biggest bargains. Marshall : Oh! It sounds good. Why not? Katheryn : Ok, perfect!! What are you going to buy?? Marshall : I always wanted to have a piano but it was too expensive for me, so tomorrow I will take the advantage of Black Friday. Pianos will be half price!! Isn't it brutal? Katheryn : Yeah, it is amazing. Marshall : And you what are you going to buy? Katheryn : I don’t know yet, I’ll see tomorrow. Marshall : Ok, so let’s meet tomorrow at this time in front of the Mall. Katheryn : Ok! see you soon. Marshall : Bye.

Love-locks

Image
Nowadays love-locks have become more popular in the most known cities, and one of them is Paris, where this order has begun. Are love-locks romantic or a menace? On the one hand, padlocks are made to protect our belongings and nothing else, but people lock them on  bridges symbolizing the love that they feel between them. Why Do people do this? After all, they don't need to do this just to show their love. On the other hand, there are padlocks that are very original and beautiful, but that doesn’t mean that putting them together with many other padlocks will look just as beautiful. Moreover, this only damages the structures of the city bridges, which is very damaging to us. In conclusion, I believe that this “tradition” should be banned in the whole world.

Dear Sir / Madam,  I am writing in response to your advert. I would like to apply for the position of  code-breaker at Bletchley Park.  I feel I am a very suitable candidate for this position. I speak four languages; Catalan, Spanish, English and Arabic, so I have an excellent translation capacity. Moreover, I got a diploma in UPC University, and now I am doing a master of technology. In addition, I have been learning two more languages since last year (French and Korean). I can keep any secret so I am a very trustworthy person. Many people told me many secrets and to this day I keep them and I couldn’t tell anyone. I hope that you will consider employing me. Please inform me if I can come to an interview. I look forward to your reply. Yours faithfully, Katheryn Lison

Paris is a breathtaking town. It's located in France. This place has a lot of museums to visit and it has a very beautiful architecure. People say thet Paris is a "romantic town", but in reality, it's more than just that. Paris is recognized by the tour Eifel.

THE BENEFITS OF VEGETARIANISM

Image
Who hasn't noticed that there are less animals on the earth? Very few people. While they make excuses for eating meat, I believe that people have to become vegetarian. First of all, eating vegetables lowers the risk of having heart diseasse, obesity, diabetes,... Moreover, if people becomes vegetarian, they could have a 8 year longer life expentancity. Secondly, vegetarians can save the planet and the animals because vegetarians only eat vegetabloes and products that comes from the animals. As a comsequence of rising animals, we spend a lot of water that can be used in one year. In coclusin, being a vegetarian is better for you, me, them and obviosly the animals.
