REPORT

To: University Director
From: Carolina Vásquez Ibacache
Date: December 4th, 2009
Subject: Suggestions for the Common Room


This report relates about the investigation that I did according with your intention to set up the new common room for people who are not in classes. I managed everything with some classmates. We investigate our needs and compare with the other common room.

The advantages for a new common room are as follow: the idea is to have a peaceful space where as English students can have the opportunity of an entire environment of English, with the culture in an attractive, and comfortable place, because in our own country those places do not exist and we can have our own inside of the university. As everything we are going to have some disadvantages for example, we are not going to share so much with people from others career but in my opinion we have to emphasis in our priorities.

We would suggest the second floor because it is not so far from everywhere and it is not a popular place, room can be 422 it is the biggest one. Inside of the room we can have a modern British style where we can feel as in England, also we can have some drinks and foods machines, lockers and entertainments but everything in English. And you can put just one table, small sofas from everywhere and books.

It is a fact that we need an English environment for relax ourselves and do not stop learning. For this project you have our support considering that this is going to be for us.

formal transactional letter

Dear Sir or Madam,

I am writing to inform you that I was very dissapointed with the newspaper report that appeared on Monday, about a by-pass for the town of Oldbury. There are information and details about it that are falses. I am sure about it because I attended it demonstration.

Firstly, the protest was made with one objective To protect woodland and avoid the destruction on this place there was over 2,000 people gathered all people want to defend the town of Oldbury.
Another false information published for you was about the chanted slogans on the road because our demonstration was peaceful and silent people whom participated in this demonstration are local residents and they don't want that that place change.

I don't know which was your purpose to published false information I thought that this newspaper was serious and professional. I consider that the reporters were very irresponsibles.
I and the other people can be your main source for that I available for an interview to discuss te points that you have doubts about the demonstration.

Yours Faithfully
Carolina Vasquez

What can ordinary people do to help in the fight against crime?

Crime has become in a big problem for our society. In these years, crime has been increased because of the poverty, socials environment and families’ structures, and we can evidence that in television programs, or sometimes those just appear in front of us.

What do we do against Crime? The answer is nothing, we are just passive people who are involved with this problem, but we never do anything, because we are afraid of it. We live in society and as citizens we have the duty to give the fight against it. This is not only a government’s problem it concerns to all of us.

There are many ways which can help us to stop this trouble. To educate people about this problem is fundamental because we can show all of the disadvantages that crime brings. Also create communities in the neighborhood that support to each other in case of vandalism or burglary.

Do not bear that this people leave us living in the shadows. We are part of this society and we should walk around our streets with freedom of all of this kind of crime.

COMPOSITION.

It should be illegal for parent to hit their children.

In chile is not allowed hit or give a bad threat to children, it is a illegal action and the parents of children hitted can have a big problem.
To hit children is a crime because they are indefense people they depend their parents and the parents are responsable of the life of their sons or daugthers for that in Chile this action is punished. Also the bad threat psicological is punished but it is more difficult to know although the boy tell us what happen with him.
Furtherfore we have telephone numbers where you can say or reveal the bad threat that the children suffer in this way we can help them we are not allow the parents have the responsality take care of their children because they are not able.
In additional information parents can lose your role like tutor of their children and lose the contact with them.
In conclusion we have take concience about the take care of our children and try to educate them in the best way possible.

Wine festival (vendimia)

Dear Carmen

Sorry it's taken me so long to write, but as you know I have been organizing my move to molina. In this place the wine festival is made. Do you rememeber when I said you about this festivals?well now I tell you this festival is very important for all people of molina because they celebrate the grape is ready for to pick. The last friday finished the celebrations it last the whole week. always the municipality of molina makes a lot of activities connected with the wine for all people as you imagine everyone was very drunk I think that nobody work during that days. therefore you undersatnd that it is very important for this small town.

The first day I went with my boyfriend to parade ground of molina there was 2 chilean bands called sinergia and chancho en piedra and it was fantastic this kind os events is completely free, everyday molina had singers, bands and alot of activities.

Unfortunately, people was arrested for their state of drunk and they can't enjoy of festival.But as you imagine I enjoy all activities and all concerts together my boyfriend it was the best week it was like my vacations. I would like you can enjoy with me the next festival.

Well, that's all from me. Let me know what you have been doing recently

Caro!

As I carefully entered the haunted house, the door shut behind me and....................................

I felt frightened I din't want to see what thing was behind me so I thought the wind has closed the door. I am curious to know what happened in that house I was very valient because I was alone and the house was cold and dark but I walked a few step and suddenly I felt somebody touch my shoulder in that moment I was terrified I want to shout but I have lost one's voice. I don't know what happened because I woke up in a large aisles alone.

the best way to travel in santiago

Personally, I think the best way to travel in santiago nowadays is the subway.

Firstly, the subway has directions for the whole santiago , it comes each town and it closer to people fot to arrive their homes and works.

Secondly the subway was designed for all kind of people, it means the disable people have a easy access to it this has benefited a lot their lifes. As you can imagine, before, in several years ago, we had buses fot travel into santiago and the disable people had a lot of problems because the buses didn't have comfort for to get on easy into it. Today we have buses that it was designed especially for this people and now their lifes are more easy.

Another aspect important is the BIP card we have to use for to pay the fare of the subway or the bus. Consequently the people feel less fear. Before the people suffer assaults in to the bus but now they don't need to have money in their pockets therefore the robbers know can't rob them.

To conclude the best way to travel into santiago is the subway because it has an easy access, is very fast and it is in all parts of this city.

stories!

I prefer the travel stories Swimming with turtles at pulau because is a place spectacular where you can enjoy and discovery the 2 island with a nice wheather, to sahring with animals like the turtles, species of the sea and you can know things you think that it don't exist. moreover in this islands you can rest and to have a great moment. while in the other trip the person who traveled there don't have a good moment, I think they don't enjoy because they found other culture and they had to adapt it.

advantages v/s disadvantages about to live in the town or city!

The people is always thinking about to live in other different place where we live without doubts the places expected are the town and the country because they are 2 places very different and each one have a lot advantages and disadvantages.

Firstly, the town has many places where the people can work and to receive a amount of money that maybe the person can't obtain in the country because the country doesn't have places where the people can work or it jobs are low-paid for that reason the people have to move the town.
the town has a lot of places where you can entertaining and enjoy the life in the town moreover you can have oportunities for to study and to open new doors. Also the town has more hospital where you can have easy access to it. The problem is the increase of people and the life is hard each day in consequences the relation between people is indifferent and competitive. Also the town has a lot of dangers the people here can't live in peace all people feel stress, angry and tired. Despite the town has comforts some people don't feel comfortable in this environment.
the relation between people affect a lot in the life of them for that the enviroment where you live must be comfortable.

In conclusion I prefer the country because in this place your family will live with the most whole calmly and I consider it is important I don't care the technologies that can have the town or some beneficits. Whereas in the country the life is paeaceful in all field the realtion with people is more friendly

town or country ? what do I prefer?

that depends the country is place you want a lot when you are stressed and you need to relax
is a peaceful place where you can be alone and to rest whereas the town is a place where you are in a hurry all time and you have to do a lot of things in the day and sometimes you can not do all because in the town the time flies it is very tiring. I prefer to live in the country side!

letter

Dear Sir or Madam

I am writing to express my nuisance with the shopping excursion to France with Bringhton Marina CoachesBolougne because the trip offered some activities that we couldn't enjoy.

Firstly, you said the trip on bus will be comfort with air-condicionated that day was very hot into the bus we was a lot of person and the air conditioning not working. Really it was terrible. moreover we can't drink nothing because the hypermarket was crowded with long queues at checkouts for that we can't buy nothing for to drink also here we lost a lot of time. Despite the manager people knew the day will be boiling and they don't worry for it.

After that we went to visit the Hauteville with its Charming restaurants the worse lucky all of restaurants was closed for that we was only 1 hour in this place and we can't enjoy others places we want to know. the nasty was we arrive to home at 11:30 pm you said that the return was at 9:00 pm it was very unpleasant.

I would like to know if you can give back a percent of money because I'm very discomfort with the trip it be the most suitable.

Yours faithfully

Shopaholics!

to be a shopaholics can be an entertaining activity for some people because is a time where you forget the routine and to have a fun moment but it transform in a adiction, a disease very dangerous for the life of a person or a family. I think that to go the shopping is an activity boring for the family and the people can do a lot other activities most entertainment for example to play in the park, share with the family.

HANCOOK! --------------> FILM REVIEW

HANCOOK is an action film with a lot of fantasy.

Hancook is a hero with a lot powers but he is a dissatisfied and misunderstood man, he lives in the Angeles and the people who live there are very pleased for to have a hero such near of them and he can solve their problems, but Hancook is getting to be a problem for everybody.
The film shows a city with a lot delinquency and the police can't do anything against it, then hancook is the only person to able to stop this situations. the problem is that hancook when save someone to make a lot damage in the city because he uses all his powers and he doesn't control his movements and his strength. one day hancook save to Ray, he is a executive and he wants to meet and help to hancook it will help him with his job and also the city will have a big superhero!
after they are friends and they help each other. finally in the film the life of many people to be in at risk and hancook must save them and he get to fight against the bad people and he protect the people were in danger.

The role of technology in today's society.

The computer has greatly improved our lives today.

The computer has a big importance in the life of the persons, because we use it for work, study and communicate, this device to help us, however we can have some problems if we don't know to use this.

On the positive side, the computer has a lot information about everything we want to know, each person gives differents uses to it. the computer is faster than look up information in a library. moreover everybody have a computer in your house or to have access to this.
Another advantage is that you can communicate with some people are out of the country with a low-cost, because if you try communicate with somebody is abroad the phone call can be expensive.

On the negative side the computers are a threat in a home, because the comunication between parents and sons sometimes is broken, the persons can be a lot time together with the computer and not worry for your family. Finally some parents don't have the control in the time of use the computer, moreover some parents don't take conscience about the dangers to have internet the children.

In conclusion the computers can help us in our life, just we must know to use it correctly, if we make a bad use of it, we will have consequences in all kinds of things.
