MY LAST SUMMER

WRITTING:


Hi, my name is Mireia, and now I'm going to talk about my last summer holidays.

First I'm going to talk about Ireland.
Second I'm going to talk about England.
And finally I'm going to talk about Platja d’Aro.

When I finished the school I travelled with my parents to Dublin, Ireland. I stayed there 3 days, and I visited lots of things. It was a good travel, but the city in general doesn't have lots of things to visit, in one or two days you can see all the good monuments. But I had a very good time there with my parents, and I think that it is a good city to visit.

Second I went to England, in a little city called Haleibury with Carla and more people from Barcelona. I stayed there for two weeks in a residence. There I did classes and activities every day. On Monday morning I did classes, and in the afternoon activities, on Tuesday I did activities in the morning and classes in the afternoon and like this every day. On Tuesdays or Wednesdays of every week we travelled to different places, like London, Cambridge... and on Sundays we had different options. I stayed very well there, but the food was horrible. I made a lot of friends from lots of countries, but mainly I did lots of friends from Barcelona and I miss them a lot.

And finally, I stayed in Platja d'Aro for about 1 month. I stayed there with my parents, my brother, and my cousin. There I did a lot of activities, but on the second day I felt sick and my cousin too and it was a bit boring because we had to take antibiotics. But we continued doing activities and we had fun. Every day there, was different. We did whatever we wanted and for me it was perfect. One day, one friend invited me to his parent’s boat in Palamós. It was a fantastic day because we went to a creek, and we stayed there all day. We swam in the sea, we ate in the boat... it was amazing. There I met another friends from Banyoles too, and we went to the beach, the disco… I love staying in Platja D'Aro, and every summer is better than the last.


In general it was a good summer, I did a lot of things and I had a lot of fun.

TAYLOR SWIFT

Taylor Swift's personal pop songs are loved by millions of fans... 
but it's fer positive attitude and generosity that make her a real star.

From the moment the 14 years old singer arrived in the city of Nashville, USA, it was clar she was destined for success. Taylor Sfwift moved to the American country music capital from her home in Pennsylvania for just one reason... she wanted to be a famous country singer. Her songs soon made an impression on music bosses... and her dream became a reality.

EARLY SUCCESS

In 2006, at age 16, Taylor released her fist single "Tim McGrwaw" about one of her ex-boyfriends. Love has een a theme of her music ever since. Taylor's public appreciated her intimate, autobiographical songs and in 2008 she was nominated for her first Grammy award. Then at the  2010 Grammy awards, she gbecame the youngest singer to win Album of the Year at the age of 20. 

LOVE LIFE

Recently, Taylor has been the subject of speculation about her relationship with One Directon's Harry Styles. She says she is embarrassed that people talk about her love life. In the past, Taylor has had lots of famous boyfriends such as Joe JOnas, Taylor Lautner and Jake Gyllenhaal. So does she always go out with famous boys? "I really don't have any rules whent it comes to height, age, career, choice" she says.

 

UNIT 9 - Speaking

MIREIA: Hey, Mònica, what on earth is that?
MÒNICA: Oh, I got it this morning. what do you think? Do you like it?
MIREIA: mmm. I'm, not convinced.
MÒNICA: don't you think it's interesting?
MIREIA: Er, sort of, but I'm not suer about the face- it's a bit mad.
MÒNICA: Oh, come on! It isn't that bad. It's really colourful. It's good to have a new picture, anyway.
MIREIA: I suppos so.
MÒNICA: Don't worry, it'll be fine. It'll grow on you.
MIREIA: OK. We'll see.


UNIT 8 - Writing

TWILIGHT

I'd like to recommend a film which I've watched recently, called Twilight. The director of the film is Catherine Hardwicke.

The film is a drama and the setting is in Seattle, EUA. The main characters are one girl called Bella, and two boys called Edward and Jacob. Bella is a human girl, Edward is a vampire and Jacob is a werewolf.

The things I liked most about the book were the characters and special effects. Some of the scenes are memorable because it's a very wonderful story and the way it is told is fantastic. 

All in all, I really liked the film, and it has got a happy ending, I wouldn't change it. It's a film that sends a good message.

 

UNIT 8- Speaking

MIREIA: Hey, Mònica, have you seen any good films recently?
MÒNICA: Yes, one or two. Have you?
MIREIA: No. What about this one? Is it any good?
MÒNICA: I'd only recommend that if you like really bad musicals.
MIREIA: No, I don't fancy that.
MÒNICA: Here  you are. You might perefer this.
MIREIA: What's that? Mission to Planet Q? No, I'm not a big fan of science fiction. I'd prefer a comedy.
MÒNICA: A comedy... er... OK, well, try this one. It's got a really funny plot. I think you'll like it.
MIREIA: OK. I'll trust you. thanks, Mònica.
MÒNICA: No problem.

Dear Sir or madam,

I represent a group called "Protecting the heard students". I am writing to you because we are concerned about plans to close a park near my town because one company wants to build a motorway.

In our opinion, building a motorway is not safe, so if there is one near our town, the residents might be in danger. If we have a motorway here, it will be a problem cause there is goint to be alot of noise. A park is better, because the babies can play in there, it's safer, and it's a grenn zone...

We have therefore decided to take action, and we are going to organize a protest. for this reason, we are sending you a poster and we hope that you will support us and help to publicize this event.

Yours faithfully,

Mireia Noguer
Group Coordanitaor
Protecting the heards students.
