Nothing is impossible

Comment 17



We can say that impossible is the opposite of possible, adding it the prefix im-. So, morphologically, something that we consider impossible can never be possible, although this, we often listen that there is nothing impossible. That we can do everything we want if we make a real effort to do it, so we must think that we would do all we want. But, is really true that there is nothing impossible?.

Well, nowadays, we live in a society that is really pessimistic, that is our society is really negative and it affects our behaviour and our day-to-day mood. However, there are lot of people that are saying everyday that there is nothing impossible, and we only need to make a effort to achieve something we want. These people can give us some expectation, and can make us change our negative mood to a happy or positive mood, being a little more optimistic.

If we stop to think, we can see clearly that there are lot of famous or important people that come from a family like ours, and they arrive where they are thanks to all their efforts, because they didn't give up when they saw that it was very difficult and practically impossible. So, if they can arrive there with their efforts and spending lot of time in the way, we can also do it. We can achieve something we want if we really want to do it, but firstly we need to do our bit.

To draw the conclusion, one can say that I think that there are some things that are impossible to us, whatever all the effort that we make. But, it should be made clear that if we do something thinking that we can't achieve, so it make that we do it unenthusiastically, we will certainly not achieve it. So, we always need to think that we will achieve what we want.

Under pressure

Comment 16



There are some situations that we need to act or to do something with some pressure, and that's not all bad. All people can think that doing something under pressure is always bad, but it is not true, because when we do something under pressure, it can help us to concentrate in what we are doing and we even can do that better than we would do it without that pressure. So we need a certain level of pessure to do some things better.

We can see clearly what I have said in some examples like sports, work or studies. When we are studying, we need some pressure, in this case it can be an exam or bad marks to pass an exam, in this situation, you can concentrate more than if you don't have that pressure. The same phenomenon happens in sports, when a team is losing an important match or when they are playing the final, they are playing with some pressure, they don't want to lose so they need to play better to win the match.

In the field of sport, we can see it normally, for example, we have recently seen the case in tennis of the match of Rafa Nadal against Medvedev. In this match, Rafa Nadal started losing the match in the first two sets, but finally he won the next 3 sets and won the final of Open Australia. In this case we can see how Rafa Nadal won the final thanks to the pressure of thought of defeating Medvedev and finally he could come back and win the match.

Finally, as a conclusion, we can say that pressure is something that we need to do all the things better, because if we don't have any pressure we won't be as concentrated as we are under pressure. We see that playing under pressure made Nadal won his 21st important tournament, so we need to be proud of that such a good tennis player comes from our country, Spain.


What do you think could be done to reduce environmental pollution?

Composition 03



Nowadays, we live in a society that is usually polluting in all aspects. We usually go by car everywhere, all the things that we use are made of plastic from a bag to other object that we can use. And that's not all, now there is plastic even in the food that we eat.

The food we eat has plastic, and you can ask yourself, how can food, like  fish or meat, have plastic? That's easy, it is because all the world is contaminated by plastic, and some studies have discovered that there are lots of microplastics in the sea and even in the se salt that we usually add to all our dishes. So, that's a big problem and we have to do something to change this situation.

Well, world situation with the contamination is really hard and difficult. But if we have intentions of change it, it isn't impossible to improve. So, we can search for some things to do to reduce enviromental pollution. The first, the use of car must be reduced, we need to get used to walk to some places and not always use the car. Secondly, the things should be made of other materials to reduce the use of plastic. And finally, we must be rid of rubbish in appropiate places, we ought not to throw it anywhere.

Finally, as a conclusion, I think that it is a very serious problem and that there are lot of people that don't realise about the importance of the environmental contamination. It is true thatwe should have acted before to solve this problem, but if we really do our bit and try to reduce our contamination doing different things, in the future we will see some consequences.

Metaverse

Comment 14



Our world is always improving and improving in lots of aspects, for example, we can see all the improvements in the medical sector in our situation with the coronavirus, how vacinnes are made by scientist of all over the world. And we can also see all the improvements in the technological sector, which has improved a lot in the lastest years with the creation of Internet and all the things that come along with it. 

For example, now people are talking about things really different from what we are used to. Nowadays, people are talking about Virtual Reality, Metaverse or NFTs, and they aren't ordinary people, they are important scientists and professionals in this field and there are also lots of famous people who are talking and acting in this field. But what are in reality all these things, which so many important people are acting in?

I'm going to explain what metaverse is. Metaverse is something really likely to VR (virtual reality), but some people think that metaverse could be the future of Internet, and that's not something really strange because we can already see that big companies like Facebook are investing lot of money in this project. In this virtual world, you will have a 3D avatar and you will be able to go somewhere you want, for example you can go to work, or to a concert. To sum up you will be able to do all the things that you want to do in a virtual world.

Finally, as a conclusion, I think that all these things will have lot of importance in the future and that all future generations will use it. But, I don't really know if it will be as important as some people say, because there are famous people that are saying that it will be the future of videogaming and I don't think so. In the future there will be people who like playing videogames as we do nowadays.

Long live the King!!

Comment 15



Nowadays, we call king to people from all fields. We call them King in their fields because they are the best in what they do, for example you can be the king in football, basketball, tennis..., but not only in sports because we can also say that someone is a king in music or other different things or activities. 

Well, that is now, because in the past the only king that existed was the king who ruled the country. Before, there were kings in almost all countries at least in our continent, Europe. There was a king, for example, in England, in France, in Greece or in Spain. And there are some countries that still have a king like Greece or here in Spain, that we still have a king, Felipe VI, whose father is Juan Carlos I, his father was also a king, but he didn't get the crown.

In this field, we have today some problems, because there are people who want that figure, who rule the country, to dissapear because they think that he doesn't do anything. That is true in some part because now the king has a lot less power and duties, that is because the politicians have adquired some of them, so he doesn't have to do a lot of things. For this reason we are nowadays in a democracy and not in a monarchy.

Finally, as a conclusion, I think that is something good we have a king, a best person, doing something because it can motivate a lot of people to compete to try to get this title. In the case of the king in politics, I think that he still have some important things to do and that it still needs to exist the figure of a king to deal with the other countries.

Ready for the New Year?

Comment 13



A new year has already started and as usually people are doing lots of New Year's resolutions, but what is that? A New Year's resolution is like a promise that you do yourself, to do all the things that you expect to do during the year. There are people who achieve all, but there are people who make themselves lots of resolutions and don't achieve any of them. So resolutions can be good if you are determined to do them, but can be also bad for the people who don't achieve them.

2021 has finished and a new year has started, 2022, a year in which lot of people have so much expectation and confidence. They expect that all the bad things that are taking place now, like the Covid situation, which is getting worse because of all the new infections that are appearing in all places, and we can see now, better than ever, in our surrounding area, or lots of other bad things like climate change issue, will finish in this new year, but they are the same expectations as last year and they didn't achieve.

Last year was a difficult year because of different reasons, but at less for me it was better year than 2020. In 2021 I started 2º Bachillerato, which is the last school secondary year, and only in the first term I realise that it is really more difficult than last school year. Now, in 2022 I will finish this school year, but I need to improve more in all subjects to get good marks in all.

Finally, in my opinion, starting a new year can be really good, because all people recover their expectations and that they continue making efforts for what they want. For this new year I only hope that two issues will improve, on the one hand, the pandemic situation, and on the other hand, I hope that goverments do something to improve the situation with climate change, which is a really big problem.

Super Mario Bros

Comment 12



Super Mario Bros is one of the most popular games of Nintendo Company, we can say that because Super Mario saga is one of the most selling videogames sagas of all the world and the most selling videogame saga of Nintendo. The first Mario's videogame was created by Shigeru Miyamoto, who has created other famous videogames, like The Legend of Zelda or Star Fox. Miyamoto is really loved by all Nintendo fans and players, because he always directed really well all his videogames.

Nintendo started like a company producing some things really different from what they produce now. Nowadays Nintendo produces especially videogames of all genres, but at the beginning they started producing cards, in particular, Hanafuda cards. Hanafuda is a card game, originated in Japan, where the company has its main headquarters. Hanafuda cards are really beautiful because it have different draws on it.

Well, when I was a child I used to spend lots of hours playing and playing different videogames, among them I played Super Mario. The first Super Mario game I played was Super Mario Bros for Nintendo DS, what a good time I spent! I remember that I completed this videogame more than once, because it was one of my favouritie videogames. I also played more Super Mario games some time before and I still liked them.

Finally, I reckon that Super Mario saga is actually really famous. Not long time ago an interactive Super Mario theme park in Japan, and it has lots of tourist that visit it. There are also Lego's toys based on Super Mario, and they are really cool if I had these toys when I was a child, I would have been really happy. So, Super Mario is something that has marked the lives of all young people.

A cop to sort out climate change matters?

Comment 11



People think that Climate Change is a new problem, they think that it has existed for two or three years, but that's not true, because Climate Change has existed for many years, exactly for more than one hundred years. It started as a normal global heating, I say normal because the heating of our planet is something natural, but we have made that something natural becomes something really dangerous for all of us.

The problem is that before the people didn't give much importance to this problem and, even, they thought that it was false, that climate change didn't exist. Now we can see how those people were wrong, because it is already producing some changes in our enviroment and weather. For example, in the south of Spain we can see that now there are fewer rainy days than before, it rains less and climate change is to blame.

Luckily, now there are a lot of people that are worried about the climate change and its consequences. These people are looking for a solution to this problem, and in addition they aree celebrating a lot of conferences. Between them, the last conference the COP26. The COP26 was celebrated in Glasgow in Scotland, and presidents and ministers, like Joe Biden or Pedro Sánchez, from all over the world met there.

Finally, from my point of view, if we had acted before, it would have been easy to solve. But as we didn't do anything, we can't be worried about the past,but we must think about the present and the future. Because if we act now, the future will be better than how it will be if we don't act. I only wish we would do something to solve this problem and it is not too late.
