Bryan Moises Chamorro GarcĂa. 24 Yachay Way Yachay Tech University Urcuqui, Ibarra, Ecuador December 8, 2016 Dear Portfolio Reader, My name is Bryan Chamorro. I appreciate the opportunity to present my English Language Portfolio. It represents my best work and the effort that I made during this semester, and it also demonstrates how I increased my abilities. Something that you need to know about me is that when I started to learn English I didn't like it, but during this time I could say that it was a good experience. My portfolio has a collection of my best works of English including four essay and a presentation, and the results of my final work make me proud of how far I have come. My story with English started when I was four years old. My family and I moved to another place in Quito called Carapungo. This city was a good start for many reasons. We lived in a good neighborhood, with a new dog, and we also met good friends. One of my friends that I remember in particular his was a man named Elder, I remember him in particular, because his name is directly related with the subject of English. The Elder was a missionary that taught about the gospel, my father wanted to learn English from him. Something special was to see almost the entire neighborhood in Elder’s classes of English and this is something that I remember clearly. This was my first time that I had tried to learn English. But something interesting was the fact that I have been learning English for twenty years and I never got a real interest until this day. I have learned a little English at my high school, and now I am studying English again at the university I am currently at level six and I now I understand why learning English is so important. My English Portfolio is full of how I have improved my English and the progress I have made. My beginning was terrible with many failures until I demonstrated how I improved the structure and the elements that I could use in the essays. Also, you will see how I got better during this semester, in my vocabulary, spelling and the structure of my essays .I am using a new vocabulary, at the same time I was searching how to improve my vocabulary, but something special that I learned in English at level six is the importance of the assistance and responsibility, as students we have many responsibilities and duties, but in my case I was thinking for a long time that other subjects are more important than others. My way of thinking completely changed when I realized that in the world. There are so many people that use English in all parts of the world, for this reason my efforts and discipline in English changed and it became more serious for me. The Importance of knowing English is so important, to be an excellent scientist or to have a good profession. This completely changed the way I think about it. I take more much
more seriously. First with my preparation, having an association to people that speak English as a first language. The benefits of learning English make me feel surer about expressing and developing the tools that I need to be more successful in any labor field that I choose to go into. Also the benefit of having a world opened to me. I now have more opportunities than those who don’t know the language. I am happy of my growth in English but I am especially excited to know that I can improve every day. The future of my career depends on my capacity to learn more, to get more contacts, to work in special fields around the world. If I want more knowledge I will need to do more research in books that are written in English. Something interesting is that English is a language that helps us, to communicate with one another. Wherever you may go you will be able to talk with someone that speaks in English. Please take the time to read my reflection for more details, and when you do, you will see the kind of things that show that my portfolio is based to developing more of a way in expressing my personal point of view. These kinds of exercises give the strength to search for more information and not just stay with one resource. This will Increase my knowledge on how to learn more about others cultures. This will open my mind up to other ideas, instead of just one opinion. I can say that English is fundamental, that English has the tools to make you grow in different ways. One could say that English is the key in this time to be successful .It is a big opportunity to take an advantage of the leaning this language to become more international. It is crucial to take advantage of the program that the university provides for us. One could say that it is the ticket to travel, to work, and to being happy. Thank you again for reading my portfolio. I put my time and effort into this portfolio. I hope when you see my work, it will be something that makes you happy. I have nothing else to tell you, just enjoy reading it. I am sure that you will see many mistakes but if we remember our mistakes are the step to better every day. I am becoming more proficient in English every day and am ready to use my knowledge to pursue my dreams and have a successful career.
Sincerely,
Bryan Chamorro

SELF-EDUCATION THE FUNDAMENTAL TOOL FOR ALL YOUR LIFE 0
SELF-EDUCATION THE FUNDAMENTAL TOOL FOR ALL YOUR LIFE. Bryan Moises Chamorro GarcÃa. Yachay Tech University September 29, 2016
SELF-EDUCATION THE FUNDAMENTAL TOOL FOR ALL YOUR LIFE 1
Self-Education the Fundamental Tool for all you life.
At this moment in a part of a university, there is a person that is learning by his own efforts. His necessity of learning is going more than the teachers say, the self-education is a duty, but these persons are enough prepared to do everything? Scott H. Young tell us Why Self-Educated Learners Often Come up Short. Young is consider like one of the most popular bloggers. He also is a writer and we can see many articles about him in famous magazines like Forbes.
The self-education, I firmly believe, the only kind of education there is. (Isaac Asimov). In any moment of our lives. We are searching for knowledge, more information, learn something that we really like. In many cases, we need to search and find our own answers. This description is as well meted like Self-education. Self-education appears when people wants to get deeper knowledge. For this people all the information that the instructor or teacher give is not enough. This is the principal reason that we get angry at the educational system. The educational system have big mistakes: they teach what we need to think, they focus on methods that we can´t use in the real life. Educational system have problems, while, self-education does worse than schooling. To be clearer about this, self-education requires more discipline than university, not less.
Educational system is disappointing.
Till H. Groß teaches in a ted talk on 2014 that the
educational system focus on the development of robots. The educational system just teach one way to the person and this is the reason that they don’t want to learn. The way that the schools are focused are center on to get money. The people normally thinks: if you studied you can get a job, house, money, luxurie things and more. These reasons are really common but they forget
SELF-EDUCATION THE FUNDAMENTAL TOOL FOR ALL YOUR LIFE 2
that “learning is more important to making money” (Groß). The money comes and goes, but learning is more important, have a real value, and is more usefully than we can think. Grob call real progress when you get more experience. He is really insistent in one aspect “the most important thing and serious thing is what you learn and how to learn”
The problem is when one tries to replace self-education for more formal training (Scott H. Young) In many cases the self-education is a new way and we are experimenting new things, new ways that can learn. In the most of the cases the people just use to understand a limited many topics. Scott H. Young describes this like a limitation and is a disadvantage to be prepared to the real world. “Here, the benchmark for success isn’t whether you can keep up a conversation about the ideas at a cocktail party. You also need deeper knowledge of the technical details of the field” (Young,2010). You need knowledge to resolve biggest questions. Many of the professional people found necessary to develop self-studies because they really wants to understand deeper in a fact.
As well as we know the self- education is the great idea to go to the next level. The benefits to be a self-educator are great full in special when you develop more skills. One of the skills that necessary we need to develop is convert a deeply Self-Taught. To be a self-taught requires to be more critical, search no only one response, and try to see the things in other plan. One of the ways to become deeply self-taught is search the opportunities to develop what you are and what you have, and if it is hard share what you have found so far. Groß tell us to everyone that we can be more critical if we choose what we really wants to learn
SELF-EDUCATION THE FUNDAMENTAL TOOL FOR ALL YOUR LIFE 3
Self-education have an origin more profound. When someone have the opportunity to study have terrible times when you cannot understand or approve any subject, but in my personal experience is necessary to learn by our own efforts, GroĂ&#x; says that in not necessary to be in a great university to develop more skills, you have everything at your scope, information, methods, tutorials, everything that you need to learn. GroĂ&#x; was mentioning many aspects that makes selfeducation a great and hard to develop. We need to be persistence, create good habits, sacrify, work hard and do the best in every moment. When I was student in primary, I was thinking for many years that is necessary to learn just the things that the teacher said me.
All in all, we have many aspects that was mentioned, how is the risk to self-education and the problem is when one tries to replace self-education for more formal training, the self-education requires more demand than the typical education. Requires love and dedication real passion to learn to concentrate all the efforts to investigate. Self-education is the tool, the fundamental tool to change our future, our present, If we try so hard to be a good Self-educator our future is going to be great, may we think that the real progress depends in the actions that we do every moment, our time is really short this is the reason to increase our abilities to get more and more knowledge. And this is the reason that the successful persons are busier than the common people, the great characteristic of this persons is that you need to teach yourself everything. Selfeducation means hard work and discipline.

Exploration Essay. October 13, 2016.
Bryan Moises Chamorro GarcĂa Yachay University of Experimental Technology and Research November 30, 2016
The tell-tale heart "Villains!" I shrieked, "dissemble no more! I admit the deed! — tear up the planks! — here, here! — it is the beating of his hideous heart!" (Edgar Alan Poe, 1843) .The tell-tale heart is a novel recognized in all the world written by Edgar Alan Poe. Poe was a writer of many poems, short stories and one novel. His fictions spans multiple genres, including horror fiction, adventure, science fiction. but in The tell-tale heart Poe write a big short story with details about how a old man is killed by his inquiline and how the killer explain the actions or how he try see the reasons to develop the murder. In the next paragraphs we can see the possibility what kind of person is the killer(narrator) ,and ,if he is a familiar or a man that lives in the house, but the most important why he kill him.
The killer have a great intellect and he is a persistent person but in special he is mad. “You should have seen how wisely I proceeded — with what caution — with what foresight — with what dissimulation I went to work!” (Poe, 1843)The story explain us that he every night is focus on the purpose of kill, and his patience each night. we can guess that the person is interesting every moment or work to develop and follow his irrational intentions but this man is a son. familiar or just an guest.
Many questions appears about the narrator and the old man, but in paricular that the old man could have potentially been a servant or a relative of some sort but his relationship to the narrator was never identified.”Passion there was none. I loved the old man. He had never wronged me. He had never given me insult. For his gold I had no desire.” (Poe ,1843). This fragment of the story shows that the old man have a connection with the narrator. There is love in this relationship between the narrator and old man that suggest that the old man is his father or the narrator seems him like father. So if he have a real feeling ; what is the reason, why he kill him.
“I think it was his eye! yes, it was this! One of his eyes resembled that of a vulture — a pale blue eye, with a film over it. “(Poe, 1843). This is what the narrator said when he is interrogated by the police. Just a simple eye, a simple imperfection is a reason to kill
someone or the narrator have another reason. “TRUE! — nervous — very, very dreadfully nervous I had been and am; but why will you say that I am mad? The disease had sharpened my senses — not destroyed — not dulled them. “(Poe, 1843). Why the narrator is really nervous in every moment, may the old man know something that the narrator wants to hide.
To sum up, The tell-tale heart is a story can make us think what kind of persons we are. When we describe how is the killer(narrator) may could questioned who we are. The story could have many different points of view, because if he is a familiar or a man that lives in the house change all, in special if we can see that the gender is ambiguous. But the most important why he kill him depends of the persons that reads this.For these reasons the text is really important to develop more critical point and this suggest that the reader needs to evolve in the history to understand what we are.

8 Spruce Street Paul Nicolas Maldonado Pinos Bryan Moises Chamorro García Edwin Marcelo Vásconez López Yachay University of Experimental Technology and Research November 30, 2016
8 Spruce Street “Architecture should speak of its time and place, but yearn for timelessness.” Frank Gehry
Architecture is an art because with the use of figures and shapes can express emotions. In addition, when we combine all these features with an eccentric architect, we obtain the most incredible buildings in the world. Frank Gehry is a Canadian-American architect known for creating these kind of structures. He was born in Toronto, Canada. He moved to Los Angeles as a teenager and later became a naturalized United States citizen (“Frank Gehry Biography -- Academy of Achievement”, 2016). Gehry is among the most acclaimed architects of the 20th century, and is known for his use of bold, postmodern shapes and unusual fabrications (Stanberg, 2015). Gehry’s most famous designs include the Walt Disney Concert Hall in Los Angeles and the Guggenheim Museum in Bilbao, Spain. Other famous design by Gehry is the 8 Spruce Street or the Beekman Tower. This construction is the tallest residential building in the Western hemisphere (Davies, 2008). A structure of such significant scale represents for the community social benefits, and the building means a new fresh perspective and aesthetic impact in the monotony of architecture. Forest City Ratner was the enterprise in charge to build the Beekman tower. The construction managers were Joe Rechichi and Maryanne Gilmartin, they contact Gehry to design the building. The tower was completed in 2010. The Beekman tower was built in a middle class neighborhood, and it carries some problems until now, the noise of cars and pollution, the sidewalks were reduced and some parking sides disappear but there are changes that benefit the community too. Forest City Ratner, agreed to incorporate a public elementary school into the project in the first to the fifth floor. There are places where people can enjoy with nature called public plazas, there are in the sixth floor to the tenth floor and hospital and the other floors are luxury departments. Now there are available studios and one-bedrooms
rent for skyward of $3,700 a month and three bedrooms for $11,975 and up and 60 percent of the building’s 903 units are occupied. The 8 spruce street is located between William and Nassau Streets, in Lower Manhattan, that makes the difference in the city. Gehry said that he was living a few weeks in a hotel of the city to be able to submerge in the most famous skyline of the world, to study it, to understand it and to be able to propose a building that stood out among the chaos that generates so much monumentality together, while respecting its imposing neighbors. A few weeks after the construction was ended, in The New York Times, architecture critic Nicolai Ouroussoff said the building's design as a welcome addition to the skyline of New York, calling it: "the finest skyscraper to rise in New York since Eero Saarinen’s CBS Building went
up
46
years
ago”.
The
(February

2011).
The curves of its facade can evoke countless sensations, the north face express streams of water, the west face express aluminum savannahs, east face we can clearly see the ice breaking .It is effect will stand out when the light reflects on the surface, generating shadows and clearings. It is at the discretion of the viewer to decide what sensations sinuous facade, as if it were a sculpture. And it is that one of the premises that gave Gehry in his study when designing and modeling the facade is that for the facade of the tower Beekman wanted the baroque curves of the marbles of Bernini, and not those of Michelangelo or Donatello, much More smooth and harmonious, but the sharp and forceful curves of the sculptures of Bernini. In conclusion, the 8 Spruce Street is one of the best works carried out by Gehry. This work as many others made by this architect recreates a natural environment in an architectural structure. In fact the 8 Spruce Street fulfills the mission of ending the monotony of the city due to the subtle forms that make up its appearance. In addition, this design has not only influenced the modern architecture, but also it been part of the social, economic and
environmental development of the city of Manhattan. The analysis of this building shows how important is art within a society and that there is no any specific rule to create wonderful art.

The lie we drugs

The lie we drugs Drugs, you use, you lose. At the beginning when the United States was stablished; the government wants to found a free and democratic nation. They search the real freedom and the services indispensables to live like food, housing and health to all the people. But in each beginning has risk, they see that the Chinese people use drugs to work hard. They see that the drugs makes t others dependent for this reason the government create new laws about his use. In the late 19th century, when most of the drugs that are now illegal were legal, the principal consumers of opiates in my country and others were middle-aged white women, using them to alleviate aches and pains when few other analgesics were available. But when hundreds of thousands of Chinese started showing up in my country, working hard on the railroads and the mines and then kicking back in the evening just like they had in the old country with a few puffs on that opium pipe, that's when you saw the first drug prohibition laws in California and Nevada, driven by racist fears of Chinese transforming white women into opium-addicted sex slaves. It is really interesting how the people see in different ways the legalization instead how are the effects in people, how change his mind during the use, how this people can lose everything and how they are involved in a huge marketing of dead.
So is legalization the answer? On that, I'm torn: three days a week I think yes, three days a week I think no, and on Sundays I'm agnostic. But since today is Tuesday, let me just say that legally regulating and taxing most of the drugs that are now criminalized would radically reduce the crime, violence, corruption and black markets, and the problems of adulterated and unregulated drugs, and improve public safety, and allow taxpayer resources to be developed to more useful purposes. I mean, look, the markets in marijuana, cocaine, heroin and methamphetamine are global commodities markets just like the global markets in alcohol, tobacco, coffee, sugar, and so many other things. Where there is a demand, there will be a supply. People tend to think of prohibition as the ultimate form of regulation when in fact it represents the abdication of regulation with criminals filling the void.
Legalization will increase the use of drugs if there is not correct laws to control the consumption and the trafficking. Second of all, Legalization does not take into
2
consideration drug addicts because it only give attention on the control of drugs. Whit legalization drug addicts could have more ways to obtain drugs, so this does not help them. In fact, there are many cases of death from heroin overdoses in the United States (Baum, 2016). Heroin is not a legal drug, so what would happen if we legalized it? , more people can die, we can think that. Also, there is not an organization with take into consideration the needs of drug addicts. So, if we think in legalize all drugs, we have to think in people who are drug addicts too. Third of all, legalization does not take into consideration the health of people. In fact, according the Medical University of Vienna, drugs can cause cancer. In addition, consumption of drugs can affect our way of thinking because the toxins that have most of drugs kill our neurons. People use drugs with medical prescriptions, due to this reason because drugs such as marijuana or cocaine can relax them. However, when people use more than the prescribed drugs begins health problems.
If you sell the drugs, you are guilty. If you buy drugs, you are guilty. If you don’t act you are guilty. Look at the murder and mayhem in Mexico, Central America, so many other parts of the planet, the global black market estimated at 300 billion dollars a year, prisons packed in the United States and elsewhere, police and military drawn into an unwinnable war that violates basic rights, and ordinary citizens just hope they don't get caught in the crossfire, and meanwhile, more people using more drugs than ever. It's my country's history with alcohol prohibition and Al Capone, times 50.
To sum up, as Ethan Nadelmann says “we need to turn our backs on the failed prohibitions of the past and embrace new drug policies grounded in science, compassion, health and human rights, where people who come from across the political spectrum and every other spectrum as well, where people who love our drugs, people who hate drugs, and people who don't give a damn about drugs, but every one of us believes that this War on Drugs, this backward, heartless, disastrous War on Drugs, has got to end” he is a respect man that show as ths we can live in peace and change the wrong vision and wrong war that we see in drugs, but in special that we don’t need to believe in the lie that we drug.

THE LIE THAT THE EUTHANASIA GIVES US.
1
Abstract Euthanasia is when a very sick person wants to end his life in order to relieve them of their suffering. A person who undergoes euthanasia usually has an incurable condition. But there are other instances where some people want their life to be ended. In many cases, it is carried out at the person's request but there are times when they may be too ill and the decision is made by relatives, medics or, in some instances, the courts. Euthanasia is against the law in the UK where it is illegal to help anyone kill themselves. Voluntary euthanasia or assisted suicide can lead to imprisonment of up to 14 years. The issue has been at the center of very heated debates for many years and is surrounded by religious, ethical and practical considerations.
Key words Euthanasia: The term is derived from the Greek word euthanatos which means easy death.(BBC,2014)
THE LIE THAT THE EUTHANASIA GIVES US.

Euthanasia is defined as intentionally killing a person suffering an illness or incurable disease. Euthanasia is called like assisted suicide, mercy killing, and sounds a good option if you have a real suffering this is an option to end the problem of suffering and is the option that the world give. But quoting to Nelson Mandela “there is no easy walk to freedom anywhere, and many of us will have to pass through the valley of the shadow of death again and again before we reach the mountaintop of our desires” (Nelson Mandela) and I use this words to declare that every pain, every suffer, every hard moment in our lives is just a way that will bring us to reach the mountaintop of our desires. Euthanasia is the lie that was mentioned by many people in the world and is confused like a merciful act. During this essay I will show why euthanasia is a lie, and how this represent a real problem to the precepts of religion. Another aspect that I want to show is how the world can´t see the difference between killing someone and letting die. For me is really important to share this aspects because the people that want to practice euthanasia is not requested by free people, they are depressed and have emotional and mental disorder. We would think that Euthanasia is a right, it is a good practice that will help to end the suffer but we need to think that “All human beings are to be valued, irrespective of age, sex, race, religion, social status or their potential for achievement” (BBC, 2014) if we don’t considered this argument the decision is really easy to take. In most cases euthanasia is carried out because the person who dies asks for it, but there are cases called euthanasia where a person can't make such a request.
THE LIE THAT THE EUTHANASIA GIVES US.

“People have an explicit right to die” (BBC, 2014). “A separate right to die is not necessary, because our other human rights imply the right to die” (BBC, 2014) this is the way that the man think. If god give us a life, we can do whatever what we want and this is called free will. But what if we considered that the life is a gift from God. “Human life is sacred because it's a gift from God” (BBC, 2014) that is the affirmation that the people that believes in God can say. Death is one of the fundamentals things that religions deal with. Because involve all what they say for example, all faiths offer meaning and explanations for death and dying All faiths try to find a place for death and dying within human experience. The religions provide knowledge and a feeling of peace for those who are facing death. Religions regard understanding death and dying as vital to finding meaning in human life. “Dying is often seen as an occasion for getting powerful spiritual insights as well as for preparing for whatever afterlife may be to come. So it's not surprising that all faiths have strong views on Euthanasia.”(BBC,2014). One of the verses that we can find in the bible can support this idea and we can find it in Job 30:23 that said “For I know that thou wilt bring me to death, and to the house appointed for all living.” In the conception that the religion gives is only God that have the power to take it, because He Give us this gift.
As we can see in the first part, the world and the religion have different conceptions about the dead. But something that could help us to identify what position is correct is when we
THE LIE THAT THE EUTHANASIA GIVES US.

try to see the line between killing or letting die. “The person in favor of euthanasia argues that giving everyone the right to have good death through euthanasia is acceptable as a universal principle, and that euthanasia is therefore morally acceptable.(BBC,2014)” but I am against this position and I start paraphrasing to Immanuel Kant, he said that is that only those ethical principles that could be accepted as a universal rule should be accepted. So then we should only do or accept something if we are according to do it the same thing in the same circumstances, regardless of who they are. (BBC,2014) The justification for this rule is hard to find and depends on the person. For example in the bible we can find “do unto others" as you would have them” .If I suffer really hard I want to ends my suffer immediately, or in the other hand if I want to live and Ill fight until the end. How this could be a universal law if each people is different and each one wants to do different things. How Stuart Chase said “Your liberty to swing your arms ends where my nose begins”(Stuart Chase). And well you may think that the right depends and apply to each person, and is correct but what if we see that the euthanasia might not be in a person´s best interest. Euthanasia is a lie no just defend the right to end the life in a correct way this will affects other people´s right, not just the sick people. Where is the difference killing or letting die? If we consider this we can see that Euthanasia is a lie.
As we could see the euthanasia have a mask and this is something that the people can be cheated. We can take the lies like a true and something that is recurrent is the fact that the people use euthanasia in extremely actions. What happen when the person is in coma for many years and the parents wants to end his pain, are they acting to the will of him or her?, or in the case that
THE LIE THAT THE EUTHANASIA GIVES US.

the people defend with passion is when they feel a terrible pain for long time they have the right to end his life. But quoting to Khalil Gibran “Life without liberty is like a body without spirit”. Maybe those people are free? This is not real freedom, they aren’t free. When we are alone, old, sick, paralyzed after accidental, is really easy to feel depression that makes us desire to dead. They are having the wrong options and they can focus in just one way to solve it.
In conclusion the euthanasia is other word is killing, is the same how to say murder and the people is confused with many factors that have good arguments, but if we remember “The road to Hell is paved with good intentions” (Saint Bernard of Clairvaux) this is the definition of Euthanasia. And If we remember the las paragraph, to make the use of a living will sensible we have to assume that the wishes of the person would be the same when they become incompetent as when they make the will. There is some evidence that it is much harder to anticipate the feeling and how his mind is, maybe is hard to define what is correct in many cases but If we keep in mind what cost have to do this, you will remember the cost are you.
THE LIE THAT THE EUTHANASIA GIVES US.
