For or against zoos as a good way of saving endangered animals


      Animal kingdom is suffering in a high degree  consequences of human actions like illegal hunting and fishing, which leads to a high number of endareged animals. Some of them are, for example, bengal tigers or snow leopards. It exists natural effects too that can produce the habitat destruction. For this reason, many people think that zoos are a good way of saving these animals, isn’t it?

       First of all, zoos are not the natural habitat of the animals, in spite of being a really good copy of them. It is very difficult to make a place as similar as some natural enclousers like penguins which are artic animals and they need a very low temperature to live comfortably. There are also animals which have to live in warm zones, like lions, for example.
Secondly, these animals are bred in captivity. Because of it, they are often not fully adapted when the breeders release them. Moreover, sometimes the animals are captured when they are puppies, what leads a very difficult adaptation to the artificial means. Therefore, it does not help endangered animals to protect their breeds.
     To continue, I will say that zoos are over-priced places. Furthermore, there are shops into zoos where cuddly teddy bears are sold, but they have a very high price too. It may seem strange, beacuse those places are supposed to help animals. Likewise, they need some money to try to conserve the animals.

       In conclusion, if I wanted to help animals, I would donate money to an animal protection charity because when I went to a zoo, I only saw zoo animals that have behavioural problems due to their life style and they seem unhappy.

comparison

Punk is a kind of music that developed between 1974 and 1976 in the United States, United Kingdom and Australia. The origin form of the punk was a type of simple rock and something noisily to express his own means and concepts. Therefore, the lyrics of their songs are a critique of the system or social critiques. Moreover, this music is very distinctive because of the clothes and the look: dark colors, torn t-shirts, hair like a comb and boots. The intruments which are used are some like electric guitar, bass and drums,  Sex pistols are a great example of it.
Otherwise, classical music is very relaxed and it helps you to keep calm. This kind of music is also earlier than punk.  It is only music, but there are some kinds of interpretations like the opera which include beautiful voices. Besides, the musicians wore fancy clothes with warm colours and patterns or suits. Another difference is that they used instruments such us violins, piano, cellos, etc. An exaple of musicians could be Beethoven.

Global issues

   At the moment, poverty is one of the most important problems in the world and we must solve it. First of all, the main cause of the problem is the human greed, which leads the humanity to an envious world. If we conitued gruelling resources from the Third world, people who live there never would have an education or a good live style.
   A possible solution to this problem could be the well-known concept of global basic income, which consits of giving to everybody a basic income of money to help them cover their necesities and their personal aspirations. Moreover, making an equative distribution of global resources, such as petrol or gold, and not trying to give everything to the same countires could be a second solution.

  To sum up, poverty is something horrible and all of us have the same rights and we should live comfortably.

opinion paragraph

The public education should be priority for the leaders of our country. From the beginning of this new legislature, the public education has been relegated to the second or third plane and it mustn’t be tolerated in a developed country like this one. The aids have not been destined to this kind of centres but to private centres. Public education is better than private because everyone can obtein a very good level of culture and it is free, so many people with economic problems can go there. Furthermore, in public centres exist a natural and really good relationships between youngsters than in other private centres. So, if you wanted a better education, you should go a public centre, where the frienddhips are forever.

Viva el Rock

   
   Muse is a British group formed in 1994. They began playing under the name of Rocket Baby Dolls and they won a competition of local bands in  Teignmouth. Then, they decided to change the name of the group and now they are Known as Muse.
   It has got three members, whose names are: Matt Bellamy, the vocalist; Christopher Wolstenholme, the bass; and Dominic Howard, the drummer. The first one has a really nice voice. It seems Mercury’s voice, so many magazines say this group is the new Queen. Morevover, their songs are very innovatives and they introduce new sounds on every new disc.
   The first one was Showbiz, in 1999, but, in my opinión, the second one, “Origin of Symmetry”, is one of the best together with the last one, “Drones”. In spite of being the last one, they and a lot of people think that it is the best, which is not normal in other big groups.

    Finally, I’m going to say that i’m expecting to go to their concert, but it is very difficult because tickets are sold in a matter of minutes. So I hope to go as soon as I can.

The person who I admire

    My grandmother is the person who I admire because she is always looking after me and all of his gransons. When I was a child, she was my second mother I love her as much as my mother.
    She is seventy two years old, so she is too young and very smart. She likes being pretty and I like very much her white hair. I admire her beause of her personallity: she is always laughing despite her hard past, when she lost her father. She also gets angry, but I don’t mind.
    Moreover, she is the best cooker in the world and I love all of her food. When I go her home, she often asks me what I want to eat. I’m very pampered and I really like it.

   In conclusión, I would like to be like my grandmother, because is the kind of person who everybody would like to have in his live.

My first travel

   Travelling is one of my hobbies. It’s the best way to learn about other cultures and to speak a better English.
   My first trip was too many years ago, when I was seven years old. My family and I went to Bari, in Italy, because of my father’s job (he is always travelling). The worst thing of the trip was the flight, bacuse it was the first time that my brother and me have taken one and it was really scared. We had to take two planes to go there, it was horrible.
   When we arrived, I was very exausted, but I also was very excited. We staid in a hotel which had a too big garden where my brother, mum and me played when my father was at the University.

Furthermore, we had a good weather and we learned a lot about Italy. 
   I think is a good place to visit and my brother and me came back very happy, so we have had too many trips after this one.

What Guernica makes me feel

    The feelings that Guernica makes me feel.
    The Guernica is a masterpiece of painting that manage to make me feel sad, impotent and helpless, hopeless and angry at the same time because of the representations of the paining. For example, the mother is crying because she has lost her baby and that manage to make me too sad. Furthermore, there is a horse whose tongue is a knife. The man who is on the right is also desperate probably because of the fire and if you see it, you’ll fell as bad as him, so i feel helpless in that case. Another thing tha impresses me is the defeated warrior, who makes me feel impotent. Finally, I’ll coment the dove, which represented the peace, but now it is out and the war win, so I feel very hopeless.

    In conclusión, I think tha this work of art is a great reflection of the pain that the war did and do in all of us and is a really good way to understand what the war means.
