My english competence in 2016

Well this two courses of Batxillerat I learnet a lot and I'm so proud of my job in this subject. Now that I finish my English class I can look back and ... FLIP OUT!


I did it a lot of things for improving my English and I think that the type of class that we did it's perfect to learn English, because are Interactive and we pay more attention than if we did regular class. I think that the English class is different to the others and I'm more ready than in another class. The good think about the subject is that we learn in different ways, for example, with songs or reading news and doing this blog.

I think that in the English class just need to improve more vocabulary and practice more the phrasal verbs in class, because it's a practical thing that the English people use a lot and in my class for example we know it but we don't use it a lot. Another think that this class can improve is the way to teach the grammatical theory, because depend of the part of grammatic it can be difficult to understand.

I can say that because I see my evolution in these years and the good job that I did it. The best examples of my improvement are the next.

My best presentation was: YouTubers. I think that It would be my best oral presentation because it was one of the final group presentation, and here I show all that I learned from the English class.

My best task: Do you believe in love at first sight?. This last task talks about a topic that I like it and I express all the things that I feel and I think of this topic.

My best news: Drug Addicts Could Fight Addiction With Memory-erasing Chemical Scientists Say. This news is one of my best news because I could summarize the new without any problem.

My best your say: HELLO LONDON!. This your say it's one of my favourites and the best your say that I did it because it's like a travelling diary of our London trip. It would be one of my best your says because I writed more than 3 thousand words expressing all that I felt during on of the best weeks of my life. 


And this is all that I improved in English, in 3 years. 

My english progress from 2013-2016

In this post I would compare my first written document on this blog, in 2013 when I was in 4th of ESO and the last post on the blog this course.

I can see a lot of differences on my evolution of English, for example: My first post on the blog was a written task that talks about my old dreams. The last post I've done is about jealousy. This is a big change because my post in the past talks about silly things that I like when I was younger and now I can talk about any type of thing that is more mature or simply more interesting.
Another example of my evolution can be the way of written and the mistake that I did in the old posts.


The part that I see more differences It would be in the oral presentations and its posts, because in this posts I could see the videos of my older oral presentations and the last presentation. I see that I improve the body language, the language and the pronunciation. In the two presentations the presentation of the work was the same, but in both is perfect and also the content isn't bad.
These are the examples:

Presentation of YouTubers that I do it with Núria and Juli this course

Presentation of "The life of the models before and after the catwalk" that I do it with Anna in 1rst of Baxillerat

I'm so happy with the great improvement that I do it in all this time beginning in 2013 until 2016. I improved a lot of things like the language, a lot of vocabulary and obiously the pronunciation.

Is jealousy natural?

Jealousy is an emotional response that arises when a person perceives a threat to something he/she considers him/herself. 



This time I will talk about jealousy in couples. Jealousy that arise between couples, usually produced when you do not have much confidence in the relationship or one partner is believed inferior to the other. When a couple does not have much confidence often think the worst on both sides, because not knowing everything that happens to him or her, or what can get to think he or she, this may influence when they communicate with other people. 

If a partner feels inferior to his partner, always thought he or she wants not enough and that he or she could be with someone better than him or her. I think it's one of the worst feelings you can have in a couple, since many times because of jealousy, many couples are torn apart or many people come to hurt their partners for this. 

I think jealousy are both boys and girls alike, is also always say that girls are more jealous than boys, but this is an urban legend. Many men come to attack their partners for them. 



Do you believe in love at first sight?


Love at first sight is a personal experience and a common trope in literature in which a person, character, or speaker feels an instant, extreme, and ultimately long-lasting romantic attraction for a stranger on the first sight of them.

Love at first sight is possible, but I think it's a superficial love because you don't fall in love with the person and their personality, they fall in love for their physical attractiveness. The love at first sight is real, but not always can be a true love. The people who fall in love at first sight have an arrogant, frivolous, with a lot of self-esteem and a selfish character. 

Also I think that love at first sight it's a cliché created by the romantic movies. Any woman who has ever watched a romantic movie will know that love at first sight is a very flattering cliché in these films. This kind of movies gets to see that love at first sight can happen to anyone, and anyone can establish a relationship, as easily as in the movies. But I do not believe it because to fall in love with a person have to know how is psychologically and also know your hobbies and defects.


Love is a feeling that blooms with time and not with just a glance. I think that this term would define it as an unrealistic and superficial love that only can "enjoy" people who have a good appeal. I do not mean a less attractive person can not fall into the trap of this love, but I think it is more complicated because people often are governed by the appearance. If I had to define love at first sight in one sentence I would say: 

Do not judge a book by its cover

Do couples need to have a lot in common? What are the essentials?

Couples do not have to have much in common, since a good partner is not one to which you both like the same things. Everyone you might like different things and not for the reason that your partner does not like anything you like you mean that you are not made for each other, but simply do not you have the same tastes but you can live together.



A couple who has everything in common, does not mean they have to be the perfect match, since one could get tired of having the same tastes than the other and break the relationship, for example. Not because of different subcultures or have any fashion or musical taste different from your partner means that you can not be together. If a couple is to not think about their tastes or their hobbies, but to maintain a stable relationship in which both partners access to the tastes of the other.

       Dear President Barak Obama,

          We are writing to complain about the lack of equality. On the one hand, we have the equality of all the people before the law and the other hand the entitled without any discrimination in violation of the protection of the law.

          Firstly we will say that a lot of people are treated differently because they are from other races. We put out that we stay in a denveloping country that have this behaviour with this discrimination in all the different races provokes our socity to go a step bock to the past.

          Secondly, we have to crack down in the difference in front of the equalities and the protection with famous and rich people to all the other people.

          We have to be equal in front of the law independet of the race and the moeny of each person.

        We are looking forward to your repley 

        Yours sincewrly

        Xènia and Núria.
