This package of measures is to combat this kind of deforestation. The Brazilian government says that the amazon zone is the more important vegetable, and natural zone around of the world and for this reason they will make lots of laws penalizing the illegal deforestation. The Brazilian government tries to set up efforts, to form a group of people who will work to achieve a common goal.

Human rights.

Human rights

Looking in the net I read a new that in this time unfortunately is really common.

This news article speaks about a man that mistreats his wife, and after the judge ordered him to stay away from her, but finally the man goes to his house and has an argument with his wife and kills her.


This kind of behaviour violates the human rights because nowbody has the right to ill treat other or kill anybody. The murder is penalizing for the law of every different country. And murder violates the list of the human rights.
This kind of assassinates (the husband or boyfriend kills his lover) I think that the law must be harsher.

The computer is a work machine wich was invented last century. It's evolution was fast as same as the technology of the fist world.


The computer have made the world a better place for differents reasons, the most importants are for the people who need get the work quickly, so computer do the work fast. It's importan emphatized that with the computer we can do lots of things that wasn't possible 20 years ago. For exemple we can send a letter in 1 second! Internet have a lot of advantages, with it you can search all the information that you need, you can send your work at the same time that you have it finish, and you can meet and speak with people arround the world. The computers favorized the globalization of our world. But there is bad points of view too. You should operate consequently with this machine, you can depend all of your time on it. We can say that computer can be addictive and in internet you can find lots of rubbish material...


In my opinion with the computer have made the world a better place but also have bad thing that can improve it.

Oral presentations.

Life in XIX century!

I did the oral with two good friends of the english class: Iñaki and Bernat.
We talks about the society, the food, the technology, the housing, and the clothing of the XIX century. But first we did an introduccion of our-selves.
We justified all of this parts in the society of XIX century with the film Pride and Prejudice that's show us an espectacular point of view of this period.

We wanted that the oral wasn't monothonus and for this reason we put a finally video of a fight between Peter Griffin and the chicken. We thought that maybe could disincrease our nerviosism.

Is humoru necessary to survive?




From my point of view, without humor we can't survive. Why? It's so easy, because the "humor" is the easiest form to solve our problems. If in your life the humor, the irony, and the laugh aren’t present in our life this will become grey, sad, and pessimist.

Humor is a method of create welfare, well-being. The humor makes you happy. Is a therapy too, if you laugh your body dispose of the stress and the bad-feelings of your mind. You can enjoy better your typical life
The people perhaps think that the humour isn't necessary but you can organize your life without humor, it's an unimaginable type of life.
