ORAL PRESENTATION

My english COMPETENCE

Writing 3th TERM


I choose this composition because it's what I think is best. I reflected a lot about everything I wanted to write, I tried to think how to use connectors and also a lot of synonyms to avoid repeating the same words. I also tried using phrasal verbs and new vocabulary. In the oral presentation, the best is the one about the research project, because it was more elaborated. The content was well and also the language. Moreover, I knew very well what I was talking about I could do it better than others.

My English progress from 2008-2010

- I can say that there are many differences comparing my first e-mail that I sent to the teacher and now. Maybe I don't have improved so much with grammar, because when I started Batxillerat last year my knowledge was not so different than now, it's almost the same. But when I take a look on my vocabulary, connectors, phrasal verbs, and all that things relationated with the language, I can actually see some progress and changes.

- About the oral presentations, that's where I can see more improvement. When I did my first oral presentation about some films I had seen, the content was probably poorer than my orals in the present. I didn't organize the information in so much sections, and I almost always introduced the topics in the same way. if I have said before that I had improved the language, obviously I can see the improvement in my oral presentations as well. More technical words, more phrasal verbs, more richness of vocabulary....

About the presentation I can say that it has the same quality more or less. Maybe I've learned more about the use of the power point and I can't use some resources to attract people's attention. Finally I can say that my fluency and pronunciation has also improved.

To sum up, I can say that my personal development has been adressed into everithing, but especially in language.

As you all know, the end is near. This is the last week to finish second of Batxillerat. When I started at the beginning of course, this moment seemed to me so distant, but now is right here. Five days, five tests, and the worst of all, they are the most important and decisive. What scares me most is not having material time to study for all these tests one after another, so that's why I decided not to go out this weekend to advance work. I think it's the time of my life in wich am subjected to more stress. The only thing I can think is that from here a little over a month, everything will be over.
Good luck everybody!

Writing 3th TERM

Yesterday, as every year, I decided to go to barraques and fires de Figueres. When we arrived, was evidently raining, like last year, so after half an hour of being walking, I was soaked and cold. In addition, I had been ill for a cold all the week, so I was going mad as hell. I really like the attractions, and although in Figueres they're not very exciting, I decided to ride on some of them.The rain was still jinxing everything. Luckily, the rain stopped suddenly and began the concert, that I could see close the stage. When the concert ended I ride more attractions, and the rest of the night consisted of going from fairs to barraques and the other way round. But the most important fact is that yesterday was the last day I could go out, because now is the time to study. I can not believe I'm saying that.

Is access to the internet a fundamental human right?

I just read an article that caught my attention: BBC has made a survey of more than 27 000 adults in 26 countries. The survey asked about the Internet, and what surprised me was the result: Almost four in five people around the world believe that access to the internet is a fundamental right.
What I think is that it's clear that people who have internet access are better informed, and it's an essential tool to access any type of knowledge. I think the internet is not a right, is a privilege. But consider it a right is ridiculous.
I would have thought things like food, water and shelter would be more important.
So what's next, is a TV a human right? A mobile phone, a Play Station 3?.
