ENGLISH COMPOSITION

THE SNOWSLIDE

It was in winter and the ski station was full of people skiing and snowboarding in the ski station. There were people who went with his family or people that was skiing for the first time. Suddenly, I saw something very spectacular and horrifying. It all started when four skiers were skiing out of the tracks of the station with a lot of new snow. Then they provoked a snowslide that pulled them into the snow. There was no trace of where they can be. I went quickly to ask for help to the rescue people with the snow motorbike. They went to the place of the accident quickly and they also call one helicopter to help them. With the help of some dogs they could rescue three of the four persons and carried them to the hospital but the other skier was died when they founded. I also liked to ski out of the marked tracks but I will never do it more!

INFORMATIVE ESSAY


THE KOALA: AN ENDANGERED ANIMAL

The koala is one of the principal endangered animals in all the world. Nowadays there are only less than 5.000 of koalas left in the wild. The population of the koala has dropped by 80% in a decade. However the people are trying to save this wonderful animal.

Why is the koala endangered? The koala only lives in the eastern area of Australia. Their habitat is being destroyed. Besides having no living place, it has lost its source of food. The koala only eats eucalyptus leaves, and not from all the types of eucalyptus, and it has a limited supply of food choice. An other reason is that the koalas have got a very soft fur that is very valued.

What can we do to save the koalas? Australian foundations called “Save the koala” an other Organisations are working with the Australian government to save this animal. They are trying to protect the eucalyptus forests of this region and they have banned their hunting.

To sum up, the Australian government and this foundations will have to work a lot if they want to save the koala that is one of the most wonderful animals in the whole world.

FINAL REFLECTION

• I am Xavi Simon and in this final reflection, I’m going to explain to you the English activities that I’ve done in this course of 3rd of ESO.

• In this year we’ve had to do a lot of work and activities related to the Comenius. Some of these activities were great and I spent a good time doing them. The activity that I liked most was the recipes activity because I really spent a good time cooking our dish that was: “sausages with beans”. It was quite difficult because I’ve never cooked in the past. An activity that I dislike was the personal presentation because I’ve never liked to introduce myself. The other activities weren’t very funny but not very boring.

• I don’t remember a lot of class activities but I remember that we watched a film, that wasn’t very good. It was called “Because I said to” or something similar. I would like to watch another film.

• My oral presentation I think that was really good. I use a lot of resources, I looked at the audience, using markers, organizing my ideas and my pronunciation was quite good. I don’t have to read almost anything. If I were the teacher I would marked myself with an excellent (9) but the real note (8) it’s ok.

• This year, because of the Comenius I’ve had to create a personal blog to put all the activities of the Comenius. I’ve put there all the activities quickly and well-done with a rich vocabulary and a correct grammar.

• In this year, in the English class I’ve learned a lot of new words, new grammar (passives) and my pronunciation have improved a little. I had to better my listening and a little more of vocabulary.

• To sum up, I think that my English has improved a lot in this year because of my classes here and my classes in the private academy. I think that I would have had to work more but I’m happy with the work that I’ve done.

DO YOU REMEMBER WHEN YOU WERE A CHILD?

I don't remember a lot of things of my childhood therefore, i'm going to relate the most important events that i've lived in the first years of my life.

The most important things that I remember are not a lot but I think that one of the most important things was the change of my old house to a new,bigger house. My brother's first Communion and mine,when I finished my days in the primary school and I had to start my secondary school and the worst event that I had to pass was my mother's accident, where she could have lost an arm.

When I whas a child, I loved to do a lot of things, I remember that I did a lot of things with my parents and my brother, and I played with them a lot of time and I loved doing activities with them. Would you belive it! I like going to school when I was a little child, I really enjoy going to school and doing things with my friend there.

To sum up I think that my childhood years have been really good and I won't never forget many of these stories, but I expect that my adolescense will be as good as it.

MY FAVOURITE SONG




I have chosen a song of Bob Marley called “Three Little Birds”. I have tried this song as my favourite but I also love other songs of Bob Marley and songs of other groups as Eminem or Drake. Bob Marley is considered the best reggae singer of all the times but he sometimes sang other types of music. His authentic name was Robert Nesta Marley and he was born in February 6, on 1945, in Jamaica and he died on 1981, in Miami. Nowadays Bob, although he is dead he has got a lot of million of fans of all the world and is one of the most famous singers in the world. His best songs are No woman no cry, Three little birds, One love, Jamming, I shot the sheriff, Stir it up, Redemption song, Iron Lion Zion, Lively up yourself and Waiting in vain, Buffalo Soldier and Red, red wine.

I like very much this song because it’s very calm and when I hear it I feel very relaxed and it’s good to listen it when you are very worried or nervous, and when you listen it you feel better. I like the general message of the song because I think the same as the author, we don’t have to worry about the things, if bad things are going to pass you don’t have to worry and live the life. For say something, I will say that the negative aspect of this song is that in the end is a little repetitive but the song is really good.

This song hasn’t got a good videoclip because it is very old and when Bob wrote the song, the videoclips weren’t popular. It has got a videoclip but it isn’t very good, it’s very simple and it’s not very popular. There are other videoclips but they aren’t singed by Bob. In the videoclip appears a woman and then with a TV, she watches different happy things and in the videoclip also appear draws of the elements that the song talk about.

To sum up, I recommend you to listen this song and the other songs of Bob Marley. They won’t disappoint you.
