Halloween

Halloween is celebrated on the 31^th of October. It's mainly celebrated in America, Ireland, UK, Australia,..but nowadays it's an international day, so it's celebrated in a lot of countries. On this day people are celebrating the day of the deads. 

It's a tradition to wear a costume of a monster, a vampire or a mommy and to go around the houses and ask for a ''trick or treat''.

Halloween is a very old celebration: it all began on the Celts, they celebrated the end of the harvest season and the start of the time when the ghosts and the deads become awake and it was also the end of the Celtic year.

Are you for or against using animals for medical research?

At the moment, it is legal in some countries to research with animals, although there are arguments both for and against this practice.

One of the arguments for using animals is that if we just use the nesessary, the experiments are safe and people control them it's good because human and animals bodies are simillar and we can see if the experiments are going to be good or no.

On the other hand, a lot of scientists abuse of animals and a lot of them die. Some people think that animals doesn't have feelings and it doesn't happen nothing if they kill them.

All in all, I'm in favour of using animals for medical research but just if scientists do it with control and the experiments are safe.

Hi Sheldon!

I've been in a party in L.A and I just met a girl called Penny. She's very nice and I think thet I fancy her. But I'm not sure how I feel about her.

I met her in a party and we were chatting all night. Both of us were laughing and we said that we should meet again. But then she started flirting with another boy and she didn't tell me nothing. But when I was leaving the party she came and we went for a walk near the beach.

I've been thinking about her since I had known her. We'll probably meet again. But I don't know what I want with her. I need your help.

The last decade was a one that a lot of people is going to remember because it was the first of the millennium. It was a time of change because a lot of things appeared like the EURO (€).

There were some tragic events, for example the Civil Wars in Africa that they’re still during.

In the world of music, with the new technologies people started to create music with computers and things like that, but the good music was and it is still remaining. But what has changed a lot was the cinema, because they had improved the graphics, the visual effects and a lot of different things.

I think that there weren’t a very important invention, but they had improved all the invents. And one memorable moment was when they could took photos of Mars.

Godzilla

The first Godzilla monster film was in 1954. Since then, there have been 28 films, plus novels, video games, comics and TV series. Godzilla was created as a metaphor for nuclear weapons.

LAST SUMMER

MY LAST SUMMER

Hi, my name is Albert and now I'm going to talk about my last summer. 

In June, I was in the organization of a music festival called (a)phònica here in Banyoles. I had to prepare the backstages, help the musicians, prepare the concert area, and a lot of other things...it was very cool and I met some famous artists!

Then, on July I went with my father and two other friends to see the Tour de France in the Pyrenees. First we ride up the mountains on our bikes and then we wait for the race and we followed them 4 days. It was hard but exciting! 

And finally, with my family like all the years we went two weeks to Llança. We couldn't go to the beach every day because the weather wasn't good, but we did some other things like go Karting, go fishing or do some excursions.

The rest of the summer I passed here in Banyoles with my friends.

Thanks for your attention.
