                    YOUNG PEOPLE GENERALLY DON´T PAY ENOUGH ATTENTION TO                                          THEIR HEALTH AND FITNESS

Nowadays young people don´t take care about their bodies. For instance they prefer eating junk food, such as hamburgers, sandwiches, pasta, pizza, drink coke and alcohol, instead of eating fruits and vegetables, like apples, carrots, tomatoes, corn, pupkins, etc. 

In addition to this, most of them don´t excercise themselves due to the fact that they like playing computer games or being in bed listening to music rather than go walking or running beside the path. Only a few of them do regularly excersise and eat in a healthy way. 

So, even though young people have the facilities to be healthier and fit, I can say that they prefer playing games while eating a McDonlads´ hamburger.
Our neightbourhood money

Introduction

The purpose of this report is to think how is going to be used the money our neightbourhood has. I personally believe that we have to improve our squares and campings for families.

The squares

Our squares are nice and well cared. However, I personally believe that if we improve them our neightbourhood would be better. For example, we can add games for kids, new park benches due to the fact that the ones which actually are, are in disrepair.

Campings for families

Campings already have branches, tables and spits but in my opinion it would be a good idea to have more trees and plants and also a lake with animals, such as fishes, ducks, and aquatic plants.

Recommendation

I suggest spending the money in trees and plants because they give us oxigyn, so while making our neightbourhood nicer, we will have a better lifestyle.

Meeting someone new who became a special friend!

Our friendship started on March of 2013. First I used to hate her, I couldn't stand her presence in my job. One day, my brother in love was talking with her and I was so boring that I joined them. 

When I sat down, she was talking about her daughter and her pregnancy. Then I made a joke and we all started to laugh together. A few minutes later my brother in law left us alone, so I had to talk with her, even though I didn´t want to. Two or three hours later, I realized that she was very funny, friendly and that we had lots of things in common. 

Nowadays we are all the time together, we go to the airport riding our bikes and sometimes only with a sight I can understand what she wants to tell me. So now I have to say that that one meeting made a day I will never forget.

                                                    FAMOUS OR SUCCESSFUL?

Many people dream of being famous and others dream of being successful. If you have to choose, which one would you be? Here you have some points to help you to decide. 

If you like fame, you should think first about disadvantages. For example, you don´t have privacy. Paparazzies are always stalking you. On the other hand, being famous helps you to have interesting jobs and that gives you an excelent remuneration.



Being successful but no so well-known has advantages, such as going holidays whenever you want and nobody would be spying you and taking photos without your acquiescence. One disadvantage of being successful is that you have a lot of work to do and you might be stressed. So, I prefer to get andry a few minutes for some photos I didn´t allowed to take than being almost all day working and have headaches.

Dear Mr Alan Reid,

I have seen your advertisement on the newspaper and I am writing to aply for a summer camp job as an activities supervisor.

I am interested in doing this job because I would like to improve my English and I also like children. On the other hand, I need to save money so the job is perfect for me because on summer I am doing nothing interesting and I think it will be funny.

It would be nice if you could tell me what salary you are offering for the job and the time you give us to explore Scotland.

I am a 19 year old student from London. I am saving money for University in order to help my parents due to the fact that they can not afford all the costs of it.

Yours sincerely,

Cadmiel Velazco

Dear Caroline, 

Thank you for inviting me to the camp. Of course I would like to go but I need to know when the camp is, so as to organize my days here. 

I love the idea of studying science in order to learn about animals, I´m in love with them! Specially sea animals such as dolphins, starfish and turtles 

Could you tell me how expensive the camp is? I have to save money for it and it would be perfect if I know hoy much I need to go there. It´ll be perfect if we go on a trip. I think I will choose The Great Barrier Reef because there must be a lot of wierd fishes and plants. It will be an unforgetable experience, don´t you think?

See you soon.

Love,
Cadmiel

It was a trip I'll never forget. We were in Pichanal for my boyfriend's grandmother's birthday and we were going to pick up her sister from her house. We were on the van with my friend and my uncle in law. Obviously the house was many miles within the field and the truck was not in very good condition. 

During the trip, the van was broken and we could not do it boot. Luckily passed a bus with people that helped us make it go. When we found the farm, we had to drive about ten milles up to the house. When we arrived as my uncle was not sure that was the house, followed road in ...

And what happened next? The van got stuck in moving waters. I was so scared and so my friend! We could not make it move!! And the worst thing was that there was no phone signal so we couldn´t call anyone to get some help...We were heat transpiring in the truck and we couldn´t go out because if we go out we were going to get stuk in the moving waters and we have nothing to drink! 

Fortunately after three hours the van started to move and we could go out from there! Of course we never found her sister but after all we arrived home safety.

Mi favourite famous person


     Mi favourite famous person is Angelina Jolie. She is an actress. She was born on June 4 of 1975. Angelina got married three times. Actually she’s married with Brad Pitt and they have six children together.


     
     Angelina Jolie started her career when she was fifteen years old as a model and then started acting at the age of sixteen (1991). But her professional career started in 1993 when she made her first starring rol at Cybrog. She won a lot of prices during her career, including three Globo de Oro.
     
    First she wasn’t interested al poor people, but then that changed when she was filming Tomb Raider and saw how many poor people where in the place she was. She worked for the Alto Comisionado de las Naciones Unidas para los Refugiados and then she made a trip with Naciones Unidas. In 2006 she announced the foundation that seeks donations to Global Action for Children, each initially donating a million dollars.

   She stared a los of famous films and the one I like the most is Changeling. I think she is by far the most famous person that exist. And the most I like of her is that she cares for children.

SWIMMING LIKE A FISH

I first wasn´t interesting in swimming because I had to do it as a therapy for my back. I started doing it when I was five at Gimnacia y Tiro club. After a few months I’ve been doing it, I was kind of a water lover. Of course it took me some months to learn how to swim.

A few years after, I was taking part in competitions. I won a lot of medals and certificates as well. I loved swimming; I loved the feeling of being under the water and move like a fish.

I have done swimming since I was five until I was fourteen. One day when my mum told me that I wasn´t going to do more swimming I started to cry a lot, because I felt that the pool was my place. I felt like a fish in the water, like a dolphin which can do a lot of pirouettes, like a mermaid who can talk with fishes. Now it has passed five years since the last time I´ve been under water but I still have alive my dream of being at the Olympics; and I know I will be there someday.

I´d recommend it as a hobby because you can make friends, travel to new places, improve your skills and also is a healthy activity.

Hello Anne,

Thanks for your email. I can´t wait for you to be here! From my point of view, summer is the best time to visit Salta.

For meeting people of our own age, you can go to Balcarce street. For you to know, there are a lot of discos and pubs where you can meet boys, beautiful boys! If you don't like crowdy places we can go to a bar in 9 de Julio square or to a V.I.P. party with my closest friends. 

Don't bring too much clothes. In here, summer days are hot and at night you can wear a light jacket. so I suggest you to bring more t-shirts and shorts than lots of jackets and jeans. 

I would like to travel around with you, thank you for inviting me! We can go to Jujuy to visit La Quebrada de Humahuaca, Purmamarca, Salinas, etc.  There are wonderful landscapes you´d fall in love with. Also here in Salta there are exciting things to do, like fishing on Cabra Corral dam or going to San Antonio de los Cobres on the Tren a las Nubes. Just send me another mail to know when you're coming.

All the best,
Cadmiel

QUIRQUINCHO AN ENDANGERED ANIMAL

         Quirquincho is an animal originary from the north of Argentina, but it’s also found trough Latin America till the U.S.A. The tiniest quirquincho measured fifteen centimeters (contemplating their tail) and the longest measured a meter, without contemplating their tail. It is known for their bony armor that allows hiding. It has big ears and nasal tube with small bony plates, hands with large claws on all four fingers. Its body is yellowish gray. Quirquincho release the female have a litter of pups large, as 12 offspring in some cases.
         The quirquincho is used in different ways by humans. For example, in some parts of America is used to cure some diseases; for this, people grind their shells to make powder that pregnant women have to drink to have vitamins in their body. Their armor is also used to make musical instruments like charangos. When people kill them to make this instruments or poisons they sell their meat because is edible, or vice-versa. Some people say that it’s like chicken or pig meat.
         This tiny beautiful animal regrettably is endangered species, because people do not care about the use they give to it. But, humans don´t think about the animal, they only care for their pocket money as it is a very expensive animal. It’s important to know that hunting is only allowed to people who use it for their survival, it means, only for domestic uses.
         In Salta the Ministry of Environment asked people to become aware of what is happening. The Minister in a statement said: "Our responsibility is to conserve all wildlife; they are a critical resource for preserving ecosystems of Salta. Collaborate with this task, do not consume quirquincho".
         So, let’s help the wildlife and no more dinners with quirquincho’s meat!
