English

What I liked about this subject was learn more English, I like learn English but I don´t know why, maybe because I think is useful for understand what people for other countries says. In the future if I have to do a travel, will be very useful know English.  Other reasons for what I like learn English is that I like understand what say the people in the English movies.

About the use of the blogs, I liked very much learn about different topics, in some blogs I had to study about different theme, for example I had to study about music groups, about books, about animals, among other things.

About my English I need learn many things: I need memorize more words, I need learn how use the tenses, I would like have a better pronunciation, among other thing.

For learn this things I will see movies in English (with the subtitle in English), I plan go to events in where be people what speak in English, in Chile exist people who plan events. In the events you learn English because you have to speak twith persons of other countries. Other thing what I will do for learn English is read a grammar English book.


Outside the English class I don´t use English so much. Sometimes I practice English with myself, to do that I talk with myself in my mind in English. Other times I see series and movies from United States or other countries (with the subtitle in English). Also I use English for understand instructions.

The good things

 

The good things that happened in my life are not related with material experiences, are related with spiritual experiences.  Those spiritual experiencies makes me a better persons, more madure and happy. Because of these spiritual experiences i lived good experiences and learned new things in my life.
 

For me was very important Kwon yoga and the budism religión. For me the budism is not a religión, is a Knowledge of the emotions and the human mind.


I think I lived dificult situations in my life (like all people) one of wich was the death of my cat named Chac, I loved him so much. He died apparently run over; I have not been recovering from that. .

My accomplishments in this year ( 2013 ) have been in a personal level, I beleve that I  grown up as a person and I have become more independent. One thing that I have not been able, is be focused on me and my studies. This is because I spend a lot of my time helping my friends and family when they have problems and support the people who I love.

This year for me was a very good year, despite the problems this year was very good . A good thing that hapeness to me was know my Cat called Shanty, he was in rehabilitating becouse he was very sick when I got home. I feel that I'm happy in general, but I feel a bit exhausted because this year a was very busy

 

 

censured books


I don´t know so much about this topic, because of that I search information about censored book and I found interesting things. For example the book “Alice in Wonderland” was censured in China because it gave humans qualities to the animals.

Other book that was censured is “
On the Origin of Species” written for Darwin, this book was censured because the church didn't accept the ideas that are planted in the book. The church considered this book was against the religious ideas. The book was censured in countries like United Kingdom, Greece and Yugoslavia. The kind of the secrets that Darwin revealed was a scientific secret. Many scientists have been repressed for show the secrets which changed the form that people conceived the world

I found others book that was censured, like “El diario de Ana Frank” or in English “Ana Frank diaries”, this book was censured in some schools in the United State for be considered very sexual and pornographic, and very depressing to be taught.
I don´t know any author who was censored or repressed for publishing a book. But Ana Frank was repressed after she wrote her diaries. She reveled secrets in his diaries about the repression that he Jude people had to live in the NAZI Germany of that time. I believe in the secrets or in the history that she lived but some people don´t believe that exist the holocaust.

How green are you


I incorporated recycling en my habits. In my house a have lots of trash can, I have a trash can for the plastic bottles, I have a trash can for the glass bottle, I have a trash can for de paper and I have a trash can for the others things. I want a trash can for the organic material (are organic material: vegetables, serviette, skin, shell and others things) but in my house I live with my mother and with my father, and thery don´t want that I recycling organic material, that is a shame because I really want a place for do “compost”.

Other things that is  habits for me is use the bike for go to the university, I think that the bike is so much better than the car, above all because is nice feel the breeze y can see a lots a places.

Other practice that I have for environmentally is use and buy worn out clothes, I do that because in general the process of the production is very contaminant, I prevent the contaminant production if I use thing that are not new. For the other side a practice the Barter, the barter permit use things that are not new.

Other thing that I would like to do, buy I don´t do every time is repair thing instead buy new things.

For reduce my carbon footprint a use the bike as I say.

I think that Santiago new more and betters track for the bicycles, new a global system of recycling .

Flora and fauna of Chile: the problematic today

Today I want to speak about two species that exists in Chile, the huemul and the pudú.

The huemul is an endangered species and is one of three species of native servants living in Chile. The main reason for their extinction are: poaching, habitat loss due to human activities, attacks by domestic dogs, lack of food because of overgrazing to  and the transmission of disease from domestic animals. 

Another servant of Chile but not in extinction, is listed as a vulnerable species is the Pudú, this animal is the smallest native deer Chile ( and indeed one of the world's smallest deer ). Within the scientific sector the species is also known from Pudu. The main threats, which are those that have contributed to, but mainly native forest felling and forest fires. The attacks by domestic their decline include poaching for meat, habitat loss due to human activities are another major cause of death of pudú . Disease transmission by domestic livestock ,do as also been identified as a possible cause of threat.

The forest industry and industrial-type livestock production are the hardest on the flora and fauna. The dominant groups must change poor legal frameworks that exist today for effective legal frameworks that aim to promote a organic farming and a forestry industry that not deforested native forests.

FARC, America's oldest guerrilla

Hello, today I have to do a summary of an article relate with the career that I study. I am studing sociology, in this career is very important to known what is happens in the politics of other countries. I think is more important known about the politic success of Latin America, for that reason today I choose for talk about an article related with government of Colombia and FARC. I found the article in internet in the page of CNN, the link of the article is:

http://www.cnn.cl/2013/10/27/world/americas/colombia-farc-american-hostage-released/index.html?hpt=ila_c2

The theme of the article is the liberation of a North American backpacking in Colombia from FARC guerrilla. The meaning of FARC in Spanish is “Fuerzas armadas revolucionarias de Colombia”, and FARC is America's oldest guerrilla. FARC began fighting against Colombia's government in the 1960s.

The backpacking name is Kevin Scott. He had more than four months in captivity. With the help of government of Colombia and other organizations (International Committee of the Red Cross) the prisoner was released. These institutions pushed to FARC for the release of Kevin Scott.


The importance of the news is that FARC, is currently engaged in peace talks with the Colombian government. Norway and Cuba are helping to mediate the talks. The conversation are taking place in Havana, but the situation is difficult.
