Vacaciones de verano

Summer holidays: First of all, I would like to say that these summer holidays have been different. I have done a lot of activities. For example, I have had my driving licence and I have helped my grandfather with his farming. Besides, I have travelled to Mojácar with my friends. It was only for a weekend, from Friday to Sunday, but we had a good time. I have also had private English lessons, and the teacher has helped me to learn more English because I failed my English exam. But, apart from all this, I have been able to go to the beach on Sundays with my family. In conclusion, it has been a very busy summer and I hope next summer will be as good as this one.

Hi Carlota!

I have been very pleased to get news from you and to hear you are having a great time. I can see you are not wasting your time, and the photos you sent me have made me willing to visit Ibiza. It is really hot here in Totana, so it gives me a lot of envy to see that you spend all day swimming at the beach. So I understand you don't want to come back. And I hope you will also understand that, as I haven't had time to visit you at all, you can't bring me a souvenir. Take as many photos as you can so that you can show me when you are back in Totana.

All my love and lots of kisses,
Miranda

Describing a friend

I don't have a lot of friends. I have a few very good friends. My best friend is Martina. Martina is eighteen years old. She is quite tall, and she has long, dark hair and brown eyes. She usually wears old clothes, but she is always very elegant. She lives in Totana with her father, her mother and her brother. She goes to school, and next year she wants to go to university. She wants to study English. Martina likes doing sport and reading very much. She writes me long emails. She is very intuitive and a generous person.

Formal letter

Dear Mrs Martínez,

I am writing with reference to the application for the post of English teacher for the following school year. In the first place, I would like to mention that I am very fond of teaching, apart from the suitable qualifications I have. Furthermore, I would also like to mention the experience I have had for some years. In addition, one of my interests has always been having contact with people. Finally, working with students has fulfilled me as a person, because teaching does not only involve the transmission of information from books, but you also get involved with the person and feel that you can help in many other areas, such as education and values. Last but not least, I enclose my CV to confirm my qualifications and experience. I would appreciate your response as soon as possible, and I would be willing to give any further information required. I look forward to hearing from you.

Yours sincerely,
Miranda

Climate change

Climate change

Nowadays, the world is suffering the problems and effects that climate change produces. The temperature is gradually increasing every year, and so does the sea level. Besides, the number of diseases caused by the sun is becoming more and more frequent. What can we do to avoid such an important problem? In the first place, there are some simple pieces of advice that we can all put into practice. For example, we should recycle all the rubbish, because by doing this we will be able to use the same items again after treatment. On the other hand, we ought to do our best to use public transport as much as we can instead of driving. In conclusion, I think we should do more to prevent climate change than we are doing now, in order to ensure a future for generations to come.

Advantages and disadvantages of the internet

The internet has increased a lot in recent years, and although new generations have been born with it, its growth cannot be stopped. These are some of the advantages. On the one hand, the internet makes communication simpler: we can meet a lot of people from all over the world. On the other hand, searching for information is easier, and we can share personal information and knowledge. Finally, we can also buy from shops in other countries.

These are some of the disadvantages. Despite this, we can find wrong information, which can harm young people and distract workers' attention. Students can become lazy and develop a bad habit. In conclusion, although the internet has improved many things, it has also brought up negative aspects. It also makes people lazier and less productive.

The pros and cons of having children

Having children is the most wonderful experience in the world, but it has its disadvantages as well. That is the reason why many people decide to have only one child. Raising a child is really hard work: you have less time because you have to give them so much attention. Having a baby is expensive. When something happens to them or when they get sick, parents have a hard time. It is the most beautiful experience ever: seeing your baby's first steps, hearing your baby's first word... Having a child changes your life. The feeling of love, seeing your child's progress and the satisfaction of having prepared your child to face life are unforgettable. In short, the advantages are endless. In my opinion, I am in favour of having children because it is an amazing experience.
