Autana Arias, Writing para el Proyecto Escuela de Paz, muestra de solidaridad Last week , when I was going for a walk in the street where I live , I found a little girl who was suffering from hunger and cold : she was left alone because her mother had died of a terrible illness a year ago. I took her home and provided her with food and clothes. The next day I called UNICEF and they cared for the little girl and protected her from the dangers of disease and poverty. One month later, I volunteered to help in UNICEF against poverty. We were informed about some children who were dying in New York. We went there and rescued them. Since then, we often campaign against poverty. A crime at the shopping center: One day I was walking in a shopping center. Suddenly , I saw a girl running from a shop with a T-shirt in her hands. She was stealing! But there were two police men. They were chasing the girl who stole the T-shirt. I felt amazed and a bit afraid because everything happened so fast. I too a photo when the girl and the police were running downstairs. The next time I saw them , they were stopping the girl and taking her somewhere. A discussion essay The Internet has changed the world in the last 25 years. Before the Internet was invented, communication and looking for information was more difficult. These days it is easier and faster to get information you need. Books, on the other hand, are simpler. They don't use electricity, so they don't waste any energy. They are also more reliable . The Internet, however, can be very wide and addictive. All in all, I think that the Internet is a better invention , because it is more useful and in the future it will be more advanced.

Living with a disability My name's Autana and I've been in a wheel chair since I was twelve , when I had a car accident and I couldn't move my legs. Now I'm going to secundary school. My life is very different now. Before the accident , I danced a lot everyday , I love to dance. Now, I can't dance, but I've discovered that I draw very well. Every day , I have to do some exercises to keep my body fit. At school, sometimes I need help to go to my different lessons. There are one or two things which annoy me ; some kids make fun of me now that I'm in a wheel chair , but usually people want to help me. I really miss dancing , but I'm very happy to be alive.
The boy in the Striped Pyjamas Author : John Boyne. This is a story about a nine year old boy called Bruno , who lives in Berlin (Germany)with his mother, his father and his twelve year old sister Gretel , who he calls a “ Hopeless Case” (Everything happens during the Second World War). After a visit from Adolf Hitler or The Fury as Bruno callas him (Fuhrer) and his partner Eva , Bruno's father is promoted to Commandant , and the family has to move away to a place called “Out With” (Auschwitz). At first , Bruno doesn't like the place at all, because they don't let him explore. But then Bruno decides to explore anyway and he finds a boy on the other side of a fence , called Shmuel. Almost every day , they meet in the same place and sit down and talk until Bruno goes to have dinner. They do this for several months. Then one day , Bruno's mother persuades his father to take them back to Berlin, with Bruno's father staying at Auschwitz as the commandant. Bruno tells this to Shmuel and they decide they will have a final adventure to try and find Shmuel's dad, who is missing: The next day Shmuel gives Bruno a striped pyjama , just like his, and Bruno crosses under the fence . They don't find Shmuel's dad but they are taken with other people to a dark room (a gas chamber) and before they die Bruno grasps Shmuel's hand and tells him that he is his best friend for life. After a few months of searching Bruno , his father finds his clothes next to the fence and suspects that Bruno had crossed the fence. He feels very sad , and when some soldiers (Red Army) come to take him with them , he goes without complaint , still sad about the loss of his child.
My life I was born in Venezuela in 1998. When I was almost one year old I moved to Bath in England and I lived there for two years . I only spoke English. After that , I moved to Venezuela again and stayed there until I was twelve years old , that's when I came to Spain and I've been living here in Benalmadena for two years now. My earliest memory isn't very clear. I was with my dad in Bath , and we were picking berries from some bushes near our house. I also remember my first day at primary school. My teacher's name was Rose , and I met a girl in the first class who is now my best friend. I've been in Benalmadena Secondary School for one year. I haven't changed much since I was young , but I think I'm more responsible now , and I'm taller! When I finish secondary school, I will go to university but I still don't know what I want to study. Before I'm old I really want to get married and travel around the world.
A dramatic scene This was the dramatic scene of a car that fell into a hole in a common street in London this morning. The incident began when Adam Smith, a thirty-year-old man , was driving to work at a very fast speed. He was speaking on the telephone. At first, he didn't realise he was heading towards the hole, but when he realised it, it was too late. The car got really stuck. People saw what happened and called the police. After a few hours, the police finally took the driver out of the car and asked him if he was injured. Mr. Smith just said: “It was the most frightening experience of my life, I thought I was going to die�.
Writing a profile New Directions was formed in 1998 in New York. The original members are Roxie Heart (guitar), Hayley Williams (vocals) and Brittany Pierce (drums). All of the songs and lyrics are written by Hayley Williams . New Directions's first album was released in 2000. Their first best seller was their album “Loser like me” in 2002. It has sold more than twenty million copies. Since then , their albums have all been hits. New Directions play pop music. Some of their best-known songs are “Get it right” and “All or Nothing” . The band has won a lot of prizes for their music and videos. In 2005, they were nominated for ten MTV music awards and they won eight of them. The video for “Light up the world” was voted “The greatest pop video ever”, by readers of Kerrrang magazine.
Writing about relationships. I've had a problem recently. Two of my friends are going out. The problem is that the boy is really in love , but the girl isn't really interested in the relationship and she flirts with other boys. I'm angry because of her behaviour. I think that if she doesn't love him, she should talk with him and explain how she feels . That way, he wouldn't get hurt. If she doesn't talk with him , they might have a big argument. I'd like some advice because they are my friends and I don't want any of them getting hurt. Writing: An interview with Ellen Ellen said that she was feeling very good today. She's happiest when she's out with her friends, and she said that her books and music were two things which she couldn't live without. If she could be anywhere in the world at this moment, she would be shopping in a street of New Yor with some close friends.
Ellen hasn't got a great memory, and she doesn't remember the last time she went to the cinema. She remembers that she went to Australia on a trip with her parents when she was eight. That was her only time abroad. The best holiday she ever had was in Bath.
She isn't usually positive about the future. I asked if the planet would be a better place in a hundred years , and she said that it probably wouldn't. When she's older, Ellen thinks that shemight move to Australia, because she loves it. She promised that she would stay in contact with her friends in the future.

-Unit 6: A DISCUSSION ESSAY Books and Internet changed the world I think that Internet is important because it allowns to communicate over long distance and we can find information at any time. On the other hand books have been used for many years, but trees have to be cut down to get paper, and they are expensive. However, you have to be careful with Internet because through social networks, you can be bullied. All in all, I think that both of them have good things and bad things and everytime the Internet is more popular that books.
-Unit 7: A LETTER :EXPLAINING A PROBLEM I´ve had a problem recently. My parents are too strict and I have to be at home at 9:30 at the weekend.
