"I love being here, where everything seems new!"

In the middle of the picture are some tourists walking around the city. At the top is the jet of a fountain located on the right oh the picture. The fountain is half lion half "mermaid", head of lion tail of mermaid. At the bottom foreground are two women looking to the camera. In the background are many skyscrapers. This could be in Asia, because of the architecture of the fountain and the develop of the country shown in the skyscrapers and in the caption that says "I love being here, where everything seems new!", she is not from there. All the people in the picture looks like tourist walking around. The wome looks like daughter and mother. The weather it's look very nice. The city is nearly to the sea. According to the author the place is very good, " I love being here".

At the top left corner is the head painted of red. At the top right corner are two heads with powder on their hair. To the left is one of the faces painted of purple.

Speech

"there are several ways to defeat poverty and one of them is technology. People in the world disacknowledge how important is this tool in some countries".

Have you ever thought how could be your life without a cellphone? imagine how you can help people in Africa with a cellphone.

Africa is the poorest continent in the world. The people don't have money to buy food and water. Most of the countries have a lot of money but the people in those countries are poor. But they are solving this problem with technology, the cellphone.

Africa is food-scarce and the people are poor. There are ways to defeat poverty, technology. A lot of people disacknowledge how to use a cellphone or what a cellphone is.

Some countries in Africa are very rich but the natives die of hunger. The government of Nigeria has a lot of money because of the oil. they don't help the cities and most of the countries are developing. the countries don't let the people grew.

With a cellphone they can grow up, update, they are living in the past. With a cellphone they can learn, buy things like food, water, etc. And most important they can transfer money.

Now you know the importance of the cellphone in some countries in Africa. Lets use the technology to defeat the poverty in africa.

We can not live without a cellphone, its part of our lives. Life is better with technology.

cape town

In the center of the picture is a building. At the bottom right is a group of people and at the bottom left is an african child. This child is running and looking to the camera. At the bottom right in the group of people one of them look like a fireman or it could be a builther, because the buildings are in a poor condition. This looks like a poor district, you can see that in the conditions of the buildings, people and the trash in the street. The people of this picture are from africa, I dont say this because of the color of the skin or the conditions of the districts, I say this because of the caption " Nowadays coloured people in Cape flats feel discriminated by white people. In the past, this situation was a lot different", Cape Town is in southafrica. They arefrom Africa and I think they help to each other in everything. The special of that place is the union between the neighbors. I have never been to a place like that.

Diary Entry

04/11/14

  Dear diary,
                    I disagree about the use of steroid in athletes, because they abuse it. It's not fair, because there are athletes with a lot of training that don't use steroids. The steroids make athletes better, like the cyclist Lance Armstrong he wone many tour the france consecutively, but a few years ago it was discovered, he used steroids. I think that all athletes have to compete in a natural way. If I have the chance to win it all using steroids, I would prefer to not do it. I prefer to win something with my own merits and the other thing is that all of these subtances are dangerous. I heard that the steroids shrink your penis, and if younuse this subtance every day, It could be dangerouse. Watch the movies of Arnold Schwarzenegger and pay atention to his body, and comper it to how it is now. In conclusion I disagree with steroids and any subtance, to win things you have to make an effort.

Drinking

  Many adolescents hide things and one of those things is alcohol. At that age it's very common they drink, for curiousity, they want to feel older, etc.

Why do they drink?

  They are curious, they believe that it will make them feel good, they may look at alcohol as a way to reduce stress, they want to feel older. I think that an other reason why they drink is that they see their parents, old brothers, famous people drinking.

  They don't know what they are doing , the alcohol damages the brain and they do things that they will regret.

  However this is something that has happened in all the world for many years.

  At the age of 15-16 the liver is not developed and the liver is damaged. To sell alcohol to under aged people is illegal so you will ask to your self, where do they take the alcohol from? Well, they take the alcohol from their own houses.

  "According to a 2006 Australian study, people who drink are four times more likely than non-drinkers to suffer physical injuries such as falls. And binge drinkers are at an even greater risk of injury" (Steven Dowshen).

  There are different types of drinks, and the most common among adolescents is the beer. It brings negative consequences, like overweight, high blood pressure, etc. Just one regular beer contains 150 calories, each adolescent drinks five or four beers a night.

  Alcohol could bring problems to school "binge drinkers have a harder time in school and they're more likely to drop out" (Steven Dowshen) and disrupts sleep putterns, can make it harder to stay awake and concentrate during the day.

  In conclusion this hase a solution and you have to get help as soon as possible, talk to someone close to you and go to a doctor.
