Dear Portfolio Reader: I have started this semester with big expectations. This time was my last chance to learn and strengthen a lot of grammar, writing, speaking, reading, and listening abilities, before taking all my subjects in English. That is why I have tried to do my best. This portfolio is just a part of all the work in level 6 English classes. It contains four main essays, and I want to emphasize that each essay has a lot of effort behind, during its development. Thus, I can keep continuously growing my English skills. As a writer, I am better than before because, currently, I have a mental structure to develop a pleasant essay. This means that I do not know only about the subject, but also I know how to elaborate an appropriate thesis according to my writing proposals. I can support my ideas with details and examples from the best sources. I try to maintain punctuation and capitalization, mastery of spelling and appropriate vocabulary. All the items mentioned before make my writings express clear ideas, or at least most of the time. In the opposite side, there are still lot of things that I must improve. I want to increase my editing abilities. I hope that in the future I will be able to recognize mistakes in my own work, especially about verb agreement and verb tense. In the writing process my major effort is the correct using of tenses and logical structure to express my ideas. One think that help me to improve this process were receive feedback for the teacher
5
and classmates. It is really important listen carefully the advice for the others, they just want help us most of time. My vocabulary is good but could be better. That is one thing that I should improve in order to domain English. My major improvement is related with fluency and spontaneity in English. I can watch series, movies, etc., and recognize what about the situation is most of the time. I can interact with less problems when I speak. Also when somebody ask me something in any time, I am able to answer in English without problems. My English mode is on, so I do not need to thing in Spanish before speak or write, that make me feel satisfice with my work, but also be committed with myself to continue my learning process. I feel more confident about me and my abilities. I thing that that is the most important goal in this semester. That mean that I really have learned and internalize the language. Most of time I am making sentences in my mind to express what I feel exactly, and that is working perfect for me. I have some problems but with more time an practice I hope to be closer to excellence in language. I hope you can enjoy the essays you read below. I am convinced that you will find the topics really interesting. Many thanks for reading this portfolio and do not hesitate to contact me for any reason. Sincerely Patricia Rengel

Response Essay
Language: The key fact in human´s evolutionary success. Patricia Janeth Rengel Calvopiùa Yachay Tech University

Language: The key fact in human´s evolutionary success. Language is responsible of the developing of number skill in humans. According with biologist Mark Pagel language is a social technology. It have helped people to form links, create cooperation groups and resolve problems. Language skills furnish an essential tool in order to learn new things and avoid mistakes (Pagel, 2011). Pagel leads evolutionary laboratory at the University of Reading in United Kingdom. His work is done in the area of philosophy of biology, mind and language. (Evolutionary Biology Faculty Reading University, 2016) His speech, how language transform humanity?, made me think, that actually language is the key fact in human´s evolutionary success and it provides to humans a resource for advancement in the future. In order to begin with this response it is interesting to think about: how important is language in our social dynamic? And in the other hand, how important was it in the past? Language is an inherent ability in humans. Most of people could affirm this as a fact. But evolution of humans was a systematic process, which is linked to the construction of the language. First at all thought the language people began with construction of cooperation groups. Soon after, humans had developed lot of cognitive abilities since the groups defined an effective oral communication. Currently, it is impossible think in the interaction with other humans in an environment without language. This means that the live style, as we know, is unimaginable without communication. (Pagel, 2011) Language is the most powerful tool that humans have. In this way the most important difference between animal and people is an efficient communication. There
9
are lot of past event that shows how a good discourse transforms the society in order to change people´s minds, for example: religion, military campaigns and multinational companies’ publicity. Most of species have established a system to send and receive messages with other members of their own specie. However animals are not successful as humans, even despite the furtherance of communication system. (Gillam, 2011) Above all, it could be affirmed that language apart us from the others species and it development is correlated with humans evolution. I adopt author’s position when he describe language as “the most powerful, dangerous and subversive trait that natural selection has ever devised”. (Pagel, 2011) When somebody speak with someone else is like: one person take one idea of this mind and deposit it in others mind (Pagel, 2011). Some years ago, fiction stories reported magic techniques and innovative instruments to control thoughts and actions of people. It looks like people has been looking an artefact that we have since lot time ago. We have language that is the magic instruments. People is able to control others people minds thanks this technology. I want to underline how Mark Pagel bright to light a biblical story. He could elaborate an effective and convinced link with the proposal of speech. Basically, Babel tower was destroyed by almighty creator. God became angry with humans, when they attempted to reach sky. Humans built this glorious construction thanks effective communication. When God destroyed the tower he finished with the universal communication system. After listening this story it is unquestionable the significance of language for humans since biblical times. (Morris, 2003)
10
Other interesting idea from Pagel´s speech. I about the adoption of a universal language for all humans. If the humans have had lot of success in the evolutionary race, even when we do not share the same language, then the progress will be outstanding when all humans speak in the same language. In this point, I am skeptical. If is true that language is essential in human´s progress, it can be true that the diversity of language had contribute in the knowledge develop. I think that language reflects the multiplicity of cultures and identities in the planet. Consequently, the implementation of a single language would means the loss of ideas, which depends of idiosyncrasy. In this way thoughts about condense all knowledge around one language could be not favorable for our specie. I can say that the author convince me about the idea that language is the key in the development of human race. There are some topics that are interesting to investigate like the future of languages and the possible disappear of some languages. Without other information we can almost guarantee that the best tool that humans have is language. It had allowed group interactions, sharing ideas and knowledge accumulation. As a conclusion language is responsible for human success as race and Language is the magic tool to share ideas and develop projects. The research of Mark Pagel demonstrated that human society, as we know, has been built of language’s hand.

Literary Analysis
“The last night in the World” by Ray Blandury. Literary Analysis Patricia Janeth Rengel Calvopiña Yachay Tech University
13
“The last night in the World” by Ray Blandury. Literary Analysis There are some difficult events when it is impossible to keep calm. When somebody hearts some good or bad news, as sample then people can wait any kind of response: happiness, sadness, disappointment, madness, etc. But what would be response when you become awake that is the last day in your life? “The last night in the World” by Ray Blandury (1951) narrows about the topic in a peacefully way, even when nobody would believe in the end of the world. I think that Brandury had created a fresh and real view about acting normal and calm when people must face moments that were apparently impossible. “The Last Night in the World” shows how a couple spent their last night together. Everything begins when a husband ask to his wife “What would you do if you knew this was the last night of the world?” Brandury, R. (1951). After drinking some coffee and to discuss some causes of this event, the husband tell his wife a dream, which had a couple nights ago. Suddenly the wife confessed she had the same dream about the end of the life in the earth. Finally they seem resigned about the imminent reality and they decided say “Good Night” each other for last time. The reader could notice a melancholic and peacefully mood in the story. The principal characters keep calm and speak softly in a relaxing environment at their home, while they are going to drink coffee. The imagery “there was an easy, clean aroma of brewed coffee in evening air” transports the reader in this scene. Also we can notice the peace atmosphere because the couple had enough time to “… watch TV, put the children to bed, get to bed themselves, like always” Brandury, R. (1951). 14
The story was narrowed by a third person, which tell the reader how this family was acting peacefully. On the other hand some interesting symbols to discuss are a cup of coffee, the coffee, the blocks that the daughter play with, the dishes and the couple´s bed. Coffee symbolizes the darkness in the moment and it is contained in delicate cup that result very interesting because it represent the world. In the same way the blocks are the world that it is easy to destroy just in a second as the daughter did. The dishes represent the routine and calm, therefore the best option in difficult moments is keep calm or/and do nothing. Finally the bed represent a time to “just the closing book…”Brandury, R. (1951). This is the last moment and it is the end of the life´s story. If it is true, that the world would be destroyed like “the girls…waved their hands down their… blocks” Brandury, R. (1951). In the other side author suggests a possibility to safe somebody when the couple keep the door of girl’s bedroom “a little ajar” as the author references. In order to conclude this analysis, I think that the author uses literature elements to create a complete and deep idea of this story. Consequently the reader could be agree with the position of the author when he proposes keep calm and continue with the routine to facing an event that nobody can change. Also if this would be your last night in the world and what would you do?

Interpretation Essay
The fighting of indigenous sudamerican people is proclaimed in Guayasamin´s paintings.
Patricia Janeth Rengel CalvopiĂąa Jose Luis Revelo Orellana
Yachay Tech University
16
The fighting of Indigenous sudamerican people proclaim in Guayasamin´s paintings. The work of Oswaldo Guayasamin reflects the suffering of South American indigenous people. Guayasamin was born in 1919 in Quito and he worked as a painter and sculptor. “Hands of protest” is part of the collection “Hands”. This set of artworks represents the rupture of silence and the visibilization of indigenous problems in an era of repression. Ecuador´s story is full of regrettable events about indigenous dignity and rights. The artwork collection, which was created until 1999 by Guayasamin, tells stories of violence, misery, and anguish but this pain feeling do not interfere with the exquisite harmony in the painting (Museo Capilla del Hombre, 2016). This essay pretend make an analysis of Hands of Protest taking care about symbols and context the pain to demonstrate how Guayasamin use artworks to protest in front of abuse of indigenous fighting. The Ecuadorian indigenous battle was extended for more than 500 years, and just in 90´s begin to be respected and consider important part of the country. (Carlosama, 2000). Hand of Protest is component by two parts: hands and face. The whole painting in position of them shows anguish and impotence. Long ago in 1492 began the mistreatment to the owner of Abya Yala, when a group of Europeans “discovered” America. The Europe´s People bring with them a new social organization system and a new social dynamics, where the natives represent almost free force work. This practices were maintained until 1990, but in this time indigenous people never stop to fight. In this way when someone look at Hand of Protest he look in the past and front facing the suffer to achieve basic rights.
17
In this paragraph different components are going to be analyzed. We will understand what the symbols and colors that conform the picture mean. The picture is composed by hands and a face. In the face and from the eyes we can appreciate a type liquid falling down. Those tears represents the pain and the desperation of being nonconform. The shattered teeth in the mouth are showing an unhealthy state of the person. Also the mouth is open just like when somebody is screaming. This expression is transmitting a feeling of sadness and also sending a message of “why”, “please”. At the same time is saying “It is enough of this”, however he do not possess the force to continue in the fight. The second major symbol are the hands. Those contains many aspects to be discussed like the face. To begin for example, the fingers shows that the person have worked for many years on the crop field as a farmer. He spent his whole life cultivating and harvesting. He had put his effort until to lose all the vigor and force. Also the hands have a peculiar style. We can guess that have some diseases, maybe arthritis as the result of being worked to many time without pause. Finally some blood are present around the finger. All this elements are the result of a hard and bad remunerated work in the entire life. And this reality just finish when he ending of the life. In 60´s Guayasamin develop a set of artworks that respond to the social struggles that indigenous protagonist during hundred years. Hands of protest is part of a set of paints that reflects the problems for sudamerican indigenous people. The strong expression of desperation of Ecuadorian people around history is reflected in the painting Hand of Protest. It is important emphasize that even when the expression
18
is full of distressing feelings the paint in whole achieve the harmony and beauty. Social problems are evidence in the paint of this artist, who made story for himself in the defense of the most vulnerable groups in society.

Argumentative Essay
More stupid thanks to technology. Patricia Janeth Rengel CalvopiĂąa Yachay Tech University

More stupid thanks to technology. Everything that you want to know is a “click” away. People can have a huge amount of information thanks to the internet. Everybody surfs in internet using computers and cellphones. The power of these technological tools go so far. Some apps have replaced human task´s. The goal is to make people´s lives easier but all these advantages have increased stupidity. We are able to know everything bet we know even less, that it is why our management of technology makes people stupid. My first point is the decreasing in our technologies. According with Roberts, G “we´re not rich connections in our own mind” (2005). Smartness involves concentration capacity, memory and deep understanding of information. This abilities are decreasing because of dependence on the use of technology. According to Roberts, “digital amnesia” is one of the bad consequences of human´s relationship with technology. Therefore technology replaces activities that help people to neuronal connections like memorizing birthdays, cellphone numbers. The gadgets in our phones to do this activities are causing less intelligence in humans. As a first clear example: Smartphones. This little apparats control people´s live. The phones tell us when and where our next meeting is, or when is our mother´s birthday, movil-phones keep inside all the numbers that we need. We do not need to know how to transform a unit in physics class or how to cook pasta, these because phones have the information that we need. Professor Coppersmith from Texas University says that our dependence increases while the deep understanding decreases. This is evidence that we have become dumber. Coppersmith, J. (2015).
21
The second example is about computers. Those resolve logic and math problems much faster than the most recognized genius. Actually the mayor of people work with laptops. The organization and communication system are based on computers and when one fail become crazy. According with Dr. Coppersmith “We depend in technologies more than ever before”. As a result people even become unproductive without technology, this is a fact which make us more stupid. In contrast Dr. Genevieve Bell says that “technology help us to live smarter”. She argues that google or download apps are proofs of smartness. Robets, G. (2015). I cannot agree because more of the things that people google are not appropriated make or to find correct information a lot of times depends on luck. In the same way a lot of apps increase laziness of people, and nobody should be proud of that. It is true that life is easier but people´s mind have become out essence and dependent on technology. In order to conclude, I want to emphasize in the dependence that technology had created in humans. At the same time our memory, concentration and reflection are decreasing. The neuronal connections, that create knowledge, are not being developed. In summary we have all the knowledge in the net, but day a day less information is in people´s brains.

Long Term Problems linked to Humans Enhancements. Patricia Janeth Rengel CalvopiĂąa Yachay Tech University
Author Note This is the final paper for English Class level 6, taught by Professor Josephine Javens. 25
Long Term Problems linked to Humans Enhancements. "The sky's the limit" (Sandberg A.) Nowadays hundreds of scientists are interested in the improvement of physical and cognitive human's abilities through technology and chemicals. Human enhancements create a possibility for humans to truthfully lead the development of their own evolution (Miah, 2016). In the other hand, according to Funk, Kennedy, & Podreback, (2016) "Most Americans Fear the Worst" about this improvements. This feeling is justified with the possibility that enhancements produce an increment of inequality and unfear in society. In long term, humans could lose conscious and the consequences will have more problems related to the influence and use of these enhancements. Science is building a new generation of people, who will be able to overpass all limits. This "limits", related to humans consciences, could be easy forgettable. As well as science offers the opportunity to create indestructible humans, the specie could decide to use these enhancements to destroy the others and themselves. The advancements in bioengineer and genetic engineer allow people to transform their life and the life for next generations, but technology could take easily other directions and being used to increase differences between social classes. People feel more worried about enhancements than captivated with the odds. Here will be explained three of the most promising technologies in favor of human’s enhancements, according with the Pew Research Center. Those are brain enhancements, synthetic blood develop and gene editing and for each some misused ideas and probable consequences. The first promising improvement is brain. It is responsible for all the activities that we do conscious and unconscious, it is the operation center of humans. The improvement of the brain will significant a revolution in society due to people will have effective solutions for problem in lest time and with high impact results. This 26
improvement means for individuals a better understanding capacity and improved memory. Actually, all the efforts are focused to develop connections between computers and brain. These associations will produce good results. As sample one of the most imprisoned: A paraplegic man, thanks a chip in their brain, was able to move part of their extremities. This favorable result has increased the perspectives. Now scientists want to help even people that are in profound coma state. (Masci, 2016) But according with Funk, Kennedy, & Podreback (2016), 69% of USA interviewed people feel worry about chip in brain. Human’s curiosity is the key in human development but this curiosity could be transformed in obsession to do more and more. In this form humans could abuse their cognitive capacities and overpass natural competence of brains. This means lose control in quantity of neuronal work, overexert abilities and functions. As a result people could lose consciences, to destroy important quantity of neurons and finally to dead, in the other hand he/she abuse of others and use his capacity to become more powerful and riches, without care of life and well-being of the rest. In words of Masci (2016), “For instance, those with enhancements may lack empathy and compassion... transhumanism could very well create … new kinds of exploitation or even slavery.” (para. 11) In addiction the biggest fear is breaks the barrier between be a human and stop being one. Actually scientists do not finish understanding the origin of conscious in humans. There is the possibility to obtain a technological modification for body and minds and lose the secessions about moral and the well-being bit by bit. People could become machines in processing information but they will not be interested in the uses and applications of this information. Some author have talked about the possibilities to create virtual realities and in this form the real interactions will be less important as time goes on. (Masci, 2016, para. 56) 27
Now let's think in being able to reach every cell in the body therefore to all the human organs. Blood provide oxygen and nutrients in every cell in bodies. The development of synthetic blood means access to the whole body and solutions of many healthy problems. For example: effective solutions for scarcity of blood even the weirdest types, also to reduce danger in transplants. Scientists could develop less invasive cancer treatments applied just in maligned cell, an faster and effective identification of organs affected by virus and bacterial, and even the develop pf an undefeatable immunological system all of this thanks some additive in the synthetic blood. Therefore the access to every cell in body promises the solution of many healthy problems as a consequence to better life for everybody. (Masci, 2016, para. 46 - 53) In contrast, people think that the use of synthetic blood as well make individual better could represent a danger for the rest. As Funk et all. (2016) have noted that 63% of U.S. adults that say that they would be worried about synthetic blood. If somebody has incredible force and have developed some qualities that make him indestructible who can stop them in the case that this people use bad all the technologies. Also, to destroy an undefeatable immunological system man need superpower bacterial, that can easy kill the rest of population. It seems that the synthetic blood offers great advantages for individual persons but could detect dangers for collectivity especially those who do not have this improvement. Last but not least is the DNA modification. DNA is what people do and every single cell is controlled by DNA. CRISPR is a new and revolutionary method to accurately and efficiently "edit" the human genome in embryos and adults. Stronger muscles and bones will be produced, people might decide to have more intelligent babies with predesigned eyes and hair color, the cancellation of strange genetic illnesses that are painful and overly expensive. DNA manipulations offers to people take decision 28
to stop aging and extend their lives. That is why, if genetic information is modified, then there are no limits to control the body and mind. (Masci, 2016, para. 7) Modify DNA means to take absolute control of humans and their characteristics. There exist the possibility to develop greater variety of breeds of humans some with top senses and animal own characteristics, such as “gills or webbed hands and feet or even wings�. Nowadays the biggest concern is becoming experts in the successful edition of genetic code, some studies in animal have unexpected result. As sample, when some researches edit to part of the code trying to change special characteristic in individual, they have altered other processes and structures in the experimental subject. In this form, if the editing of DNA seems like the biggest opportunity of enhancements, but right now and for the next years would be unbelievable trouble to domain the double helix discovered by Watson and Crick in 1953, that keep the secrets of life (Masci, 2016, para. 24). In a larger social context people think that enhancements will open the difference between who are benefits and who are not. People who have some an improvement could take the decision to dominate the rest and achieve main personal advantages. In the same way they could use vulnerable people for indecent works in bad conditions. In all the cases will be there a discrimination and abuse based in who is better based in a quantity and quality of improvements. In long term and thinking a society where everybody is better, would be there enough for everybody? Actually in lot of places around the world people dead because they do not have food and other dead for obesity problems. The power of enhancement could involve a worst distribution of resources and wars in order to obtain more resources, where the winners are societies that have more enhancements.
29
Lot of people is keeping exceptional about the reach of enhancements in future. Annas G., bioethicist from Boston University says "based on our past experience, we know that most of these things are unlikely to happen in the next 30 or 40 years.” This author had referenced that people in in 70's thought that in XXI century everybody could have an artificial heart but nowadays just a small amount of heart patients have artificial hearts but these are not happened. In the same way scientist could speak a lot about future enhancements but is possible that nothing happens (Masci, 2016, para. 63). I think that science is lot of about lucky shoots. As well in this time people have not develop big innovations to transform people based in technology and drug enhancements, could be that in a unexpected moment just one of hundreds of researches attain a new and usefully result. The consequence will be that in couple of years humans take the control of evolution in their own hands. Researches make a break point between “humanity - plus” from “post humanity”. In the first group there are people with improved features, but the second group humans are not differentiable of a group of human-machine. In this form, the research develop are not limited in create solution for mobility problems or with some of their senses in people, there is the chance to change body and mind to have super- heroes abilities. Movies for example are responsible of a big impact in society about the enhancements movies as iron man make dream people in a better society and with defender of vulnerable people, but there are some movies that reflect dangers of enhancement and make people become worried. (Masci, 2016, para. 3) It is easy to want to be a superhero but what science can do in the case of cases is different. What people know since it is based on moves and series. The real science is not reachable for workers and employers around the world. It could be that the technology is less than we want or it is tremendous more than somebody imagine. I 30
think that one of the functions of academy must be bring the science closer to people. Just in this form people could add perspectives based in their necessities in the work of researches. In the other hand the society could make an analysis based in fact and not in fiction science series. Also scientists should extend the debate about enhancements to the whole society is the way to become awake and be prepare to avoid or even fight against this possible problems or maybe participate in experiments for the developing of enhancements. The age of knowledge offers people new ways of interacting with others and with the average environment. Some abilities that were considered a dream could become truth due to some bodies and minds changes. Sadly during the years humanity have observed multiples warrior, some of them more irrational than others, where groups of people seek to dominate the rest and obtain better personal benefits. I have lived 20 years and I can see how people lose their head with a little power in their hands. While there are people who believe that nothing can happen, in contrast I think that it is best to start the discussion about the perspectives that science has for the future with respect to human enhancements. The world needs to become closer to research interests and the education in principles is the best option to avoid many problems in the future. Given the points, we could reach the sky and avoid all the limits that are unimaginable, but that will happen as long as the technology does not end up killing people first.
