THE TERMINAL!

One of the best I've ever seen. Tom Hanks played great! He represented a confused man who had just arrived from Krakozia. He didn't know the language, and was not able to leave the airport. A Civil War had broken out in his Nation. So he was a man from nowhere! He coulnd't get a passport, so he had to stay in the terminal until the war finishes.
He made himself comfortable, he had his way to earn money, and moreover, he worked there as a constructor!
And one day, he met an impressive woman, however, she was already promised but agreed to some dinners with the poor man.

Vocabulary:

In general, more formal words to describe all the terms an aiport has. But I could understand it well, and there was nor really a special and interesting word to learn. Oh yes, I remember one: arrest.

Rate yourself :)

HUMOUR: NECESSARY TO SURVIVE?

dijous, 27 de novembre del 2008

What is humour? Humour is a message with the power to evoke laughter, and in my opinion humour is vitaly in everyday life. Our lifes are full of stress, problems, anxiety and crisis. Without humour all we have is the depressing things in life.

First of all, a person who perhaps in life has bad luck and has few material posessions, for exemple money, cars..., if they have a “good sense of homour” they are often happier than those people who are wealthy. Money does not buy happiness.

Secondly I will quote a famous English saying: “It is better to laugh than to cry” when everything in life seems terrible, what can you do? You can feel miserable and pity yourself but does this achieve anything? No, you have to feel positive, you have to laugh at the situation, not cry, being positive and happier will help to survive these problems. For example, you go on holiday to Hawaii and it rains every day, be positive and laugh at your bad luck. Being positive will help you to think of other things to do than going to the beach, possibility more interesting things!

To sum up, if more people could laugh at life and could look at problems with humour, then, in general living a happier life the world must be a happier place? Obviously there are limits, there are things in life that need to be approached with a serious attitude, for example famine, wars and natural disasters.

It is clear that the alternative to a life with humour is the alternative is a life of misery, pessimism and self pity. In conclusion I ask you, which life would you prefer?

Computer have made the world a better place


Over the last years there have been major developments concerning computers. Now almost everyone uses computers. There are positive and negative resluts of this.

On one hand computers have improved and increased efficiency in a lot of Industries, such as the engineering industry. What is more we need less paper, less space, all information can be stored on computer or discs.
In addition, through computers, communication, local or world wide, is easier.
Another reasun is students can look up informationm, organise and present their projects and even study for diplomas and certificates on the computer.
Finally, our lives are easier people can bank and shop on-line and it is another option to watching TV and fill in time.

On the other hand children fill in time on the computer instead of studying or using their imagination to invent games. Moreover, children and students are losing the skills to research information in encyclopedias, dictionaries and libraries.
Students copy the information from the computer instead of writing their own work.
Alhough industry has been improved by computers a lot of workers lose their work when computers take over the world.
We have access to a lot of inapropriate information, and in addition, our privacy is invaded, banks, employers, etc can look on about us.
Lastly, every year we get lazier, we do not need to move from the computer.

I understand there are reasons for and against computers improving our lives, but as I am a student I am for computers because it makes it easier for me to complete my studies and projects. We have so much work to do we do not have time to go to libraries, look in encyclopedies for research and then to handwrite it all.

A JOKE!! :D

A man goes on a 2-month business trip to Europe and leaves his cat with his brother. Three days before his return he calls his brother.


Brother 1: So how is my cat doing?


Brother 2: He's Dead


Brother 1: He's Dead! What do you mean He's Dead! I loved that cat. Couldn't you think of a nicer way to tell me! I'm leaving in 3 days. You could of broke me to the news easier. You could of told me today that she got out of the house or something. Then when I called before I left you could of told me, Well, we found her but she is up on the roof and we're having trouble getting her down. Then when I call you from the airport you could of told me, The Fire Department was there and scared her off the roof and the cat died when it hit the ground.



Brother 2: I'm sorry...you're right...that was insensitive I won't let it happen again.


Brother 1: Alright, alright, forget about it. Anyway, how is Mom doing?


Brother 2: She's up on the roof and we're having trouble getting her down.
