Lectura 1: El Peligro del Uso Personal de los Drones
Many people use drones for personal use to take some pictures or videos from different places and later investigate. But drones can cause hurts or injuries.
The influencer Paula Gonu was enjoying her holidays with her boyfriend in The Bahamas, while someone was taking photos and videos with a drone to make content for different social media, when suddenly, the drone lost control and caused numerous cuts on the back of the leg and the part of the buttock, leaving a bitter taste in their holidays.
The use of drones in rescue teams and/or in the hands of professionals is very good because it can be of great help, but for personal use, they should be banned because if you don't know how to drive them well, they could be dangerous.
Lectura 2: Solidaridad en la Escuela
Every year, in my school, the management of the center organizes a solidarity food collection for an association called "Cáritas".
This association helps feed a lot of people every day who haven't got enough money to live normally. There are a lot of social dining rooms all around the city where they can go to eat, but they also can go to pick up the food and cook it. Most of the people used to go to social dining rooms because they live on the street. In my school, we make a solidarity food and first-need products collection, like baby diapers, sanitary napkins, hand sanitizer, and so on.
This gesture of generosity on the part of the school makes it possible for both students and teachers to make this Christmas easier for many people who haven't got enough money.
