A glass of wine? Space wine, please!

Comment 20


Nowadays scientists are discovering a lot about the space, and they are creating and launching a lot of types of rockets and some types of capsules with the intention of discover more about the space and all its characteristics, and they are also thinking about living in the space and in other planets in a near future, but for the moment we need to wait until scientists learn more about the space.

For these reasons, nowadays we have some strange news about the space, like the wine that has aged in space, and that is true, altough we can't believe this, because it sounds amazing and strange. And some experts say that the wine that they sent to the space has aged fast and it taste better than the wine that aged in the Earth. It sounds incredible and absurd to us, because we hadn't thought about this possibility before, we though that it aged in the same way in the space and in the Earth.

There are also some other news about the space that are really interesting, like that some beer's businesses created some types of beer to drink in the space and, that in the future the astronauts will drink it in the space, or that NASA sent food to the space, they sent pizza and ice-cream, to their astonauts. All these pieces of news really sound absurd and useless to us, and in part they are.

In my opinion, we are seeing a lot of changes related with the topyc of the space, and that can produce a very big change in all our lives, for example, one day scientists will create a capsule that it will be like a house and we will be able to live there, and we will be living in the middle of the space.

Nothing is going to stop us now!!!!

Now we are arriving at crucial moments in different subjects, for example we are arriving at the end of our school year and we must do well in all our exams and we also must do all the things that our teacher sends us to do, like works or in English we must do compositions and comments, and we need to finish all of them, to get the highest mark possible in all the subjects, because the mark that we get now it will have importance in our school records.

There are also other things that are arriving at their end, like all the sport competitions, and they are having their most important matches of all the season like the winning of Rafa Nadal in the Barcelona Open 2021 against Tsitsipás, that was a very important match that made that Rafa Nadal win this tournament. Other things are also ending, like the state of alarm and we can now do many more things than before.

And, as the thing is going well with the vaccination of the population, the people stop thinking all the time about the pandemic and they are also thinking about the climate change, that it is the biggest problem that we have at present. Now super powers, US, China..., are thinking more about this big problem and they are searching for a solution to this problem, but not only the super powers are thinking about this because there are other countries, like Denmark, that only use renewable energy.

In conclusion, we are arriving at the end of a lot of things, but we still have a very big problem and that is the climate change, but I think that in the future we will have a solution to this problem, and we will be able to live peacefully without thinking in problems like this.

I think we'd better dance now

Comment 18


With the arrival of the spring, a lot of changes come to our lives. The most important change is in the time, now at 8 in the evening there is still daylight. We have longer and sunnier days, and before at the same time it there wasn't any daylight, it was night. It can also bring other changes, especially with topics related with the nature.

The spring changes a lot of things related with nature, because it is the season when all the flowers and a lot of types of trees bloom, and it has a stunning view with all the flowers.But it also causes a lot of problems that are linked to the blooming of the plants. It can bring allergies, and there are allergies to all types of flowers, some examples could be the flower of the olive tree, the pine and also to some types of grass, for example in my case I have allergy to some grass.

Other changes are all the changes in the time with the change of hour and also the appearance of a lot of types of insects, because when it is winter there aren't any insects, but when the spring arrives they start to appear. So with the arrival of all types of mosquitoes and other bad insects that can bite us, some people may get into problems as they have allergies to some of them.

 In conclusion, I think that the spring brings a lot of good things, but there are also bad things, but we need to get used to this season, like we do all years, but we know that this year is different from the others because of the pandemic, but we can't do anything.

Our lives are like rivers

Comment 17



Nowadays we are passing through a lot of problems because of the pandemic and a lot of other problems, although we need to continue, trying to go over this obstacle, to continue living our lives in the way that we like, and with this case there is a very useful comparison, the one that the Spanish writer Jorge Manrique did in his Copla IV.

Jorge Manrique did a comparison in his most famous work that is "Coplas a la muerte de su padre" he wrote this to honor his father, Rodrigo Manrique, and that with these poems the people could remember his father forever, but with this work all the people remember Jorge Manrique instead of his father. In this work, he did a comparison, he compared our lives with rivers, and he said that our death was when the river gets to the sea.

I think that this comparison is a very good comparison, because I also think in our lives are like rivers, our lives is the route of the river, living different adventures, like obstacles or other things, and bringing live to all the places it goes through. And our death is when the river ends, when it arrives at the sea. However, I don't agree with all this comparison, because in my opinion, we can change our lives, the routes of our rivers with different choices that we can do.

Finally, I think that we should enjoy now, because we are still in the best part of our lives, of our river, so we need to enjoy and to worry less about things without importance, before it is too late.

Everyone should learn English

 Composition 04




Nowadays, everyone in Spain has to study a foreign language at school. You also have to study two languages at the secondary school, English and French. And there are also lot of people that don't like any language and they ask why it is obligatory to study a foreign language.

One point is that you must study English, because nowadays it's a very important language that almost all people know how to talk. There are also a lot of jobs that are necessary to learn a foreign language and in the future, it will increase and alnost all the jobs will require to speak English. Nowadays there are also a lot of texts in English and if you don't know you can't read them.

Another point is, that a lot of students think that learning English is unnecessary, and that they can spend more time on other subjects. And they say that if a foreigner comes to our country, he must learn Spanish, because he is in Spain, and that we don't need to talk with him in his own language.

In conclusion, there are a lot of advantages and disadvantages to learning other languages, but in my opinion, nowadays we need to learn English, because it's the most important language and we will need to speak English one time in all our whole life.

Once upon a time, 400 years ago, a writer named Cervantes...

Comment 17



Miguel de Cervantes Saavedra was born in Alcalá de Henares in 1547 and he died in 1616 in Madrid, he was a Spanish writer, and he is usually remembered for having written Don Quixote, which was his most famous novel, and in my opinion one of the best novels of all the times and also one of the best selling books in history, but he also wrote other important novels like La Galatea or The Generous Lover. Before being a writer, Cervantes had been a soldier and he participated in a lot of wars. One of these wars were the battle of Lepanto, where the writer lost his left hand, and for this we can refer to him with the name of the one-armed of Lepanto, and he had a lot of more difficulties in his life.

Shakespeare was born in 1564 in Stratford, England and died in 1616 in Stratford, England, he was an English writer, poet, and he is considered the greatest writer in the English language and the world's greatest dramatist. He is often called England's national poet and the "Bard of Avon". He principally wrote plays and sonnets, although he also wrote three long narrative poems. He is very famous because his plays have been translated into a lot of languages and his plays are performed very often in a lot of theatres. Some of his gratest plays are Hamlet, Romeo and Juliet, Othello, King Lear or Macbeth and all of them are consideredto be among the finest works in tyhe English language.

These two writers have a fact in common besides that they were writers, or that they are very famous, and is that both writers died in the same day and in the same year, they died on 23rd April, 1616, and it is a strange coincidence that two of the greatest writers of all times died on the same day. For this reason, the World Book Day is on 23 April, as a commemoration for these writers, this annual event is organized by the UNESCO to promote the reading. The first World Book Day was celebrated on 23 April in 1995, and continues to be recognized on that day.

Time to be honest

Comment 16



We arrive at the third term and now is when we must make a last effort to pass all the subjects with good marks, because we are already in bachillerato, and the average mark will be very important in the future when we will do the university entrance exam, and if we get enough mark, we will choose the degree that we want.

The truth is very important in this life, and we need always be honest also in the studies, because for example in the languages, we must do all the things by ourselves, we need to make genuine things, because if we don't do the compositions, or the comments by ourselves, because if we do it in this way we will learn how to do it, but if we copy the comments or if we don't do them by ourselves, we won't learn anything.

Being honest is also important in our daily life, not only in the studies, because we must tell the truth, but we don't need to tell the truth always, because in some occasion we will tell a lie and it isn't bad at all. It depends on the situation that we lie, because in some situations we will be better if we lie.

In my opinion, we must be honest always, because I don't like lying to anybody, I think that we don't like that anybody lies to us, so we mustn't lie. We need to be honest in the studies to improve and learn about all the things that we do.
