Forrest Gump

In this paragraph  i am going to talk about an amazing movie, This movie named Forrest Gump, It is just amazing, which taugh me a lot of things, about the life, About how to interact with persons, Take risks in life.

I realize the importance of be kind with every one in our life, know or unknown, Poor or rich, Cute or ugly, dumb or smart.

This movie a man with some special conditions, Something that could limit a perons he made it his biggest strength. does not matter if ur mind is not as fast and good as the every one. If you have a motivation and dreams, anything is going to stop you on your way to get it.

The moral is always belive in yoursef, sometimes people are going to tell you, u can not get that thing, you can not do that, you are not enough for that…….etc. Just remember, You are the only one who have the limits in your live.

Lyricstraining

Lirycstraining is a website created to practice english, but not like just listening that sometimes it is bored, it created a interactive way to practice, it woorks like: while ur listenig the song that u choose because it Works with YouTube so it have almost all the songs, while you are lsitening the song u have to complete the sentence or lirycs and it just stop while u complete it.

This a good way to learn vocabulary and practice and improve my listening skills. however, this kind of activities sometimes if you think you are not good listening, this kind of exercises could make you be mad at  yourself.

In my opinión i really liked this website to practice, it was really good to challenge myself, to see how i am at listening and comprehension, i did not do it that well but i know i gave my best so i am in a good way to reach what i want.

Coffee Talk UT



The students of B.A. In English at the University of Tolima, they made a beautiful exhibition of architectural models that reflected the ideal school for learning English in a didactic way and applying all the theories of pedagogy.

It was a pleasant experience for me because I could see my colleagues from the next semester speaking in English and explaining their schools, and the structures were full of colors and images consistent with English.

These spaces created by B.A. In English they are good for the students because they can practice the language and lose the fear of speaking in public, they also inspire the students of the first semesters to continue with their studies.

39 Steps book and the importance of respect the human beings

39 Steps is a book that highlights the danger that runs the lives of researchers and journalists when they investigate the mafia that is presented in politics and society. Although I did not like the book, I can emphasize the importance of respecting the rights of human beings regardless of race or profession, such as the right to life and freedom of expression.

This book talks about the life of a character who by chance of life is involved in a problem of the political mafia for trying to help a friend who was carrying out an investigation against the Germans and when he is killed his life is in danger what must flee in search of his safety but continues with the mission that his fallen companion was carrying out, following the clues that he had written in his notebook and running the same danger that his companion ran before being killed.

First, the right to free expression is violated because the characters who have the information about the Germans must be hidden because they have a threat of death and must flee leaving everything behind to survive, in society and in journalism is always violated the right to free expression, as the politicians or the rich people of each place manage the information in their favor so as not to be arrested or popularized, they also have the possibility of manipulating, hiring and bribing many people to keep them quiet let it be the rumors or the truthful information about the atrocious acts that you have committed.

Second, the right to life is violated because the investigator is cruelly murdered and his friend must flee to keep his life safe because he also receives a death threat. Not only have important information about the influential people of society violates the right to life, but have a difference in skin color or race, or be from another country or have another culture, as reflected in the book.

From my point of view, the book 39 steps can be an invitation to reflect as a society towards the importance of respecting the differences of race and opinion regardless of who has money and who does not, in addition each person is free to decide which profession wants to carry out in your life without having to think if your life is in danger. For example, in Colombia, the right to free expression and life is violated every day because independent journalists are threatened or killed when they investigate situations related to the corruption of the country.

TEST 3 WRITING TASK 2: MACHINES VS PEOPLE

The increase in technology and global development has allowed companies to improve their production processes and work times, therefore, they have been forced to reduce the number of employees.

For organizations this trend only has advantages, because it reduces the costs generated by hiring people and reduces the interpersonal problems that normally arise in organizations, it also allows organizations to increase their offer and the quality of the products or services they offer. Also, by improving production times they improve quality by increasing customers and therefore increasing sales.

On the other hand, the increase in the use of technology and machines in organizations has many disadvantages for employees, as it directly affects their quality of life and that of their family when they lose their job, affecting them mentally and psychologically by increasing their needs. your daily life in addition, at the social level affects the cities because it shows an increase in unemployment, thus losing purchasing power which affects the economy, because people do not have money to cover their need for leisure.

Another important point about this trend is that if the administrative organizations do not want to make use of new technologies, the competitive market forces them to do so, otherwise, they lose advantages over the competition, since the increase in use of machines in companies has become a fad and an obligation or automatically leaves the market falling into bankruptcy.

TEST 3, WRITTING TASK 1: LAMMERTOWN PUBLIC LIBRARY

The public library of lammertown reports the number of books loaned between the years 1991 and 2001; also the membership between men and women in the year 2010. It can be analyzed that the most read books are those that talk about sales and romance and the least read books that talk about language and crime.

In the chart of the cake where the membership data are shown, it can be analyzed that the women who use this service the most, may be because they have more taste for this habit than men.

The two graphs show that most women read, since most of the books borrowed speak of romance, with which it can be assumed that it is the women who borrow these books, and the pie chart shows that they are women who make the greatest use of membership. This may be because men and women have different points of view of life. Women are more emotional and men are more visual.

Test 2 IELTS, Task 2, Writing: ADVANTAGES AND DISADVANTAGES OF THE ADVENT OF ECONOMICAL AIR TRAVEL

It is no secret to anyone that traveling to other places is the dream of most people in the world, and that it is a benefit that only wealthy people had access to due to the high cost of air tickets, until this economy had a big change and the big companies followed by the small companies revolutionized the market with easy-to-access economic tickets for all people. For many people this has been a dream come true but for others it has been a big problem for society.

The people who are in favor appreciate this change since it allows them to access the opportunities that open up when traveling to another destination such as, expand cultural and social knowledge, learn a new language, get professional experience or simply know new places in the world. It also allows students of a foreign language to practice accurate language and new doors to the future.

On the contrary, there are those who affirm that this situation has allowed more violence towards humanity and nature, since it allows human trafficking, prostitution and unemployment in the countries, and it also makes countries dangerous places for their inhabitants.

For me, this growth and development favors students from all countries because they can go from theoretical to practical, being better professionals and contributing development to their native country, also allowing all people to have access to knowledge of other cultures and other places in the world.

Test 2 IELTS, Task 1, Writing: THE PERCENTAGE OF LAND COVEREGE BY FOREST

The coverage of forests in the countries of the world is very important because nature is what makes human and animal life possible. Globalization and the accelerated growth of technology have affected forests in most countries of the world.

One of the reasons why forest cover has been lost in the countries, is the high contamination and the second is the accelerated felling of trees to obtain wood, for example Australia in the year 1990 had 21.9% and in 2015 it decreased to 20%; Brazil went from 62.2% to 53.5%. On the contrary, Chile and New Zealand increased their percentage of coverage, the first went from 20.4% in 1990 to an approximate of 22.0% in 2015, and the second from 28.8% to 32.3% in the same years.
