Discussion essay -Students should be allowed to take their mobile phones with them to school?

Nowadays, the teachers don't allow you to take your mobile phones with you in any school and there are many different opinions about this:

One the one hand,  children should carry the mobile with them in case  some emergency happens . In addition, they could have it but leave away from them to avoid temptation.When mobile phones are prohibited at school, students feel more eager to bring their phones. Everybody knows that things forbidden are more attractive.

On the other hand, today, there have been many problems caused by children who take photos to their teachers and other children who have stolen money, phones.. and that is why mobile phones have been prohibited at school.

To sum up, the mobile phones should be allowed but under your own responsibility, knowing what may happen.

MORE PRACTICAL SUBJECTS SHOULD REPLACE THE SUBJECTS WE ARE STUDYING NOW

Nowadays, many people are studying subjects that will be useless in the future for him or her. There are arguments for and against replacing those subjects.

On the one hand, some subjects are being studied at school and they will be useless and forgotten. These useless subjects could be replaced for more practical subjects for our future careers . If you study for the degree you want, you should choose the subjects useful for these studies and should not have to study the subjects you hate as this can be bad for you and your concentration. People always say that if you study what you like, you'll obtain better marks. This can be a good advantage.

On the other hand, many people think that all the subjects could be nice for the future. Changing some subjects could be a disadvantage for the life of someone, because many people have got problems to develop in life and those people should study the most general subjects without any possible choices. This is because you have to be trained before you can choose your subjects.

To sum up, I believe that more practical subjects should replace the subjects we are studying now because it is a waste of time to study subjects you will not see ever again in your life. I think students should be allowed to choose their own subjects  (Biology, Physics, Languages, Geography, History...). Nevertheless, some people have no idea what they like in life and this can be a problem for them. I think we do not have to live to work, but we have to work to live.

Discussion Essay

ONLY PUBLIC TRANSPORT SHOULD BE ALLOWED IN CITIES.

There are some advantages and disadvantages f having only free public transport in cities.

On the one hand, the use of public transport helps the environment to avoid the car’s pollution. It also helps to improve urban mobility avoiding traffic jam.

On the other hand, some disadvantages are: 

  

   - Sometimes, the transport is saturated so you are not allowed to get in.  

   - Poor hygiene. 

   - You have to pay if you want to use the transport wherever you go.

To sum up, I think public transport would make a better mobility in the city, despite all disadvantages, it is good for our travels.

My interview with Rihanna

Some weeks ago, a singer who I look up to, Rihanna, came to Madrid, Spain, to give a concert.  I was excited because a TV program gave me the opportunity to do her an interview, so I travelled to Madrid to meet her.

When I first saw her, I asked her how her journey was. She told me that It was really long and she was very tired in that moment. While other girls and boys were asking her some questions, I took those minutes to take her a picture with my mobile phone. When it was my turn again, I asked Rihanna if she had planned visit the city or just chill out until the concert, so she replied me that she couldn’t go back to USA without seeing the beautiful city. She also said that she wanted to visit Barcelona but she thought she wouldn’t have enough time so she would come back to Spain soon. I couldn’t believe what she was telling me, it means, I will be able to see her again.

Finally I asked her if she felt like doing the concert to make people happy which the answer was that doing concerts was the best thing she had done in all her life because for those hours people who go to listen and see her is happy and only think to enjoy forgetting problems.

Rihanna said that she loved seeing smiles from the stage.

 Street market clothes against brand clothes

Nowadays many people because of the economic problems go to the street markets to buy clothes. These clothes are little valued because they have not a well-known brand even though they are nearly identical.

On the one hand, this kind of clothes is cheaper and you can find anything, shoes, bags, dresses, trousers, etc. Another advantage of street markets is that they are very large and can be found in almost every district.

On the other hand, in  street markets there are many people and some of them are thieves who use the opportunity to get some money. In addition most of these clothes are often stolen from shops and this means that they lost money.

To sum up,  the street markets are good places to buy clothes but we shouldn't abuse them.

My interview with Don Omar

A few years ago I went with my parents to Colombia and in those days there was a Don Omar's concert . He was my favourite singer and so  we went and we could make him an interview. I asked him some questions.

First, I asked him if he could give me an autograph and he give me a signed CD. Then I asked him how he had thought in to be a singer and he answered that he always had heard reguetton and he love it.

I wanted to know if he is flirting a lot and he said to me that this was true but he only loved his wife. I was very sad because I had lost my opportunity. After that I asked him if he knew how to dance his songs and he answered that he tried  but he couldn't do got it.

Finally, I asked him if he wanted to come to live to Spain and he told me that it was interesting but he couldn't because his family lived there.

Discussion Essay.

         Single-sex schools are better than mixed schools. 

Decades ago, single-sex education was the only way to go. Then, co-education became popular as we tried as a society to strive for equality of the sexes.

One advantage to be in single-sex schools is that the effort is appreciated, there is greater competition between students and they get better marks.

On the other hand, one of the disadvantages of single-sex school is that when a student from that type of school goes to a mixed school, they can have problems with the rest of the people. For example, one student at the university who has come from a single-sex school can find it strange to fit in with the classmates and talk with the other sex because they didn't use to do it.

To sum up, I think that mixed schools are the best choice for education because students can have relations and show their point of views between them

My interview.

Last week when I went to visit my aunt in Madrid I had the chance to go to a Noel Gallagher's concert (he was a member of Oasis till they split). During the concert I saw his manager, he was sitting next to me and I asked him if I could go to the backstage and do an interview when the concert had finished and he said I could, but only for a few minutes.

First of all I asked Noel how his life had been after he decided to start a solitary career and he answered me that his life hadn't changed too much, just only that nowadays he didin't have to work under pressure like on the best days of Oasis.

I asked him that what he would have done if he wasn't a singer and he replied me that he loved music, so just definitely, he would work in a job that was related to the music.

I asked him if he thought that Oasis would be back in one future and he told me that who knew, and that it didn't depend on him, rather on fate and on all the members of the group, and maybe some years later we may have a new CD of them.

Finally, I asked him if would return to Spain soon and he said to me that maybe not in a concert but that he was sure to be back here soon and have a holidays with his family.

That was my interview with Noel and I won't forget that day because it was one of the best days of my life.

My interview with Helena Bonham

I asked her about the shooting with  actors Jeremy Irvine and Ralph Fiennes and she said that she had loved the shooting with them because they are very hard-working and friendly.

I asked her which role had been the hardest that she had ever made. She told me that her hardest role had been in the film The King´s Speech with Colin Firth.

Finally, I asked her if she had read the book Great Expectations by Charles Dickens and she answered me she had not read the book but after the film she began to read it.

Animal should not be kept in zoos

There are many different opinions about this topic.

On the one hand, many people think that having animals in a zoo is entertainment for them, because their children will be able to visit them and enjoy playing with certain animals.

On the other hand, the animals are in captivity, they are not free, and often they are not properly cared for, they live in a  limited space and if they were released, the would die because they would not know how fend themselves in nature.

In my opinion, it seems cruel to have animals locked in a room, because their place is in the wild, free, but it is also true that we all like to see exotic animals up close and not just on TV.
