SMOKING IN 2015

Nowadays smoking is a huge problem in our society. In the past, smoking was a symbol of a high economic status and people weren´t aware of tobacco damaging effects. Fortunately, the situation has changed and now people are conscious of all the problems related to smoking.

In our opinion, tobacco should be forbidden in any country because it’s bad for our health and it’s addictive. Smoking for a long time can lead to different illnesses such as lung or throat cancer.

Despite all these problems, governments will never forbid tobacco because citizens spend a lot of money and that implies high taxes.

Even though there are smokers who would like to stop smoking they can’t because of the nicotine effect so they keep on smoking and spending a lot of money. One tobacco pack costs almost 5 euros, people smoke more or less one packet every day. So then they waste 1825 euros every year.

In conclusion, smoking doesn´t have any positive effect on people. Also one has to spend a lot of money on it and it causes injuries such as lung and throat cancer.

                                                         Faishon Week

Last week in New York the fashion week started, it was such a big event,and everybody was there,a lot of people few from all around the world just to see the event. The event made a lot of money.
The event started with a Miley Cyrus concert, so everybody had to dress like her. The clothes that you had to wear were a plain pink cotton dress and blue leather boots.
Everybody was very exited to see the fashion show, because a lot of famous people took part. The rest of the days were the same as the first one.
The following week Paris also organised a fashion week, but less exiting than the New York one.


                                          The First Day Of School

On the first day of school, 14th of september, everybody was very nervious, because we wanted to know about the classes and the new teachers.
The classes started at 10:30, so they explained us which subjects we would have.
This year we had a different corridor so we had new teachers.
When the school was over , we were really tired,because we were used to the summer routine.

WATER IN MARS

Nowadays all the people are speaking about that on Mars NASA has found liquid water.

It seems incredible, because the temperatures are so extreme and it is a bad factor for the creation of water in liquid state.

Nasa was searching for this phenomenon for many years, because there were possibilities, but they were very little.

It is an important discovery for all the humans, because now we know that mars it can be an “habitable” planet for the human race, also is a very important discovery because in the project Mars 1, the astronauts can convert the undrinkable water to drinkable and it will make them a simpler life.  

But the question is: Is life possible on Mars?

Smart phones in school

Nowadays in all schools mobile phones are not allowed because it is believed that students will use them badly.

Indeed students would use the phone to chat to each other but also they could work easily with it. In fact we could use phones in the same way as we use the computers, so schools would save more money than they do because most of the people, except children, already have a personal smart phone and they can use it to explore in the internet instead of using computers.

 If schools do that, they have the risk of teenagers taking photos of their teachers or they could use the phone to copy in the exams.

In conclusion, we could say that for using mobile phones instead of computers, they should look first to the pros and cons of it. 

NELSON MANDELA

“It always seems impossible until it’s done - Nelson Mandela

Nelson Mandela was born on the 18^th July of 1918 in Mvezo, El Cabo.

He studied law at the University of Fort Hare. He joined to the African National Congress (ANC), an organization that did campaigns against discrimination and exploitation of the black people of South Africa.

He organized manifestations against the system of racial segregation called apartheid but the government of South Africa killed the people that had gone to this manifestations. For this reason, Mandela create an organization called Umkhonto we Siwze.

One year later, Mandela was captured in Johannesburg and submitted him to life sentence when he was 46 years old, but his followers and governments of other countries started requiring his liberty and the abolition of the racial segregation.

In 1990, the president Frederik de Klerk gives freedom to Nelson Mandela, when he was 71 years old. A few months later they negotiate the elimination of the apartheid and in 1991 it was officially eliminated. For this, all of them received the Nobel of Peace award in 1993.

In 1994, Mandela was chosen for the president of South Africa and governed since 1999. In these years, he helped with the reconciliation of the South African people.

In 2012, his health got worse because he had a pulmonary infection. In June of 2013 his health was in critical state and on the 5^th of December of 2013 Nelson Mandela died in Johannesburg.
