WHY DO WOMEN PLAY IN SEPARATE LEAGUES?

Nowadays the only women that are known in the sport world are the wives of the professional athletes.There would not be any problem if women compete in the same categories as men.

On the one hand, in non-physical sports, like chess or poker they do not separate genders. They have the same skills, independently if they are men or women.

On the other hand, in physical sports, they play in separate leagues. If a women has the ability to play in a football team or as a tennis player, why can they not compete against men? Is it because they are not judge like men? No, it is because if a women play in the same leagues as men they would overshadow them, and in this men world they would never accept something like that.

To conclude, women are being separated from men to let them in the spotlight, but people have to be judged for what they are capable of, and not to the gender to which they belong.

AN OPINION ESSAY - DOCUMENTARY FILM: “NO ME LLAMES FOTÓGRAFO DE GUERRA”

The other day in class, we saw a documentary film called “No Me Llames Fotógrafo De Guerra” in which the principal issue was the most relevant Spanish war photographers  and the right and wrong consequences of this job.

The documentary film starts presenting the Spanish photographer Samuel Aranda, who has been passionate about photography since an early age. He won The World Press Photo with a picture that took in Yemen during a demonstration, which shows a woman protecting her son from snipers. Moreover, the documentary film shows other important photographers like Manu Brabo, who had been kidnapped on 6^th April of 2011 by the Libyan Army; Emilio Morelanti, who lost a leg during the Afghanistan war when he was with the US Army, and Álvaro Yabara Zavala.

I think that the job of these type of photographers is important and very valuable because they go through struggle so they can take those photos for us. Also, they are risking their lives and taking away their family and friends to keep on their job and let us informed in the best way: with pictures. However, I believe that we should not stay observing and ignoring these terrible situations; we have to do something against them. In the documentary film, the photographers said that many people have faith that if they are photographing them, the ONU or something will save them, but they don’t. Even though many photos come to us, there is no change and this has been happening throughout all history.

In short, I think that if there are photographers risking their lives and leaving their homes to keep us informed with the best photos and arguing what is going on, we must help those innocent people and do something to stop those misfortunes. As the  photojourlanist Fernando Moleres said: “You have to talk about this situation, publish it in the best and strongest way to be able to get the information to the high estates that can intervene”.

What I've learnt about Shakespeare

This term we have studied the life and work of the well known British author William Shakepeare.
We have watched twomovies about him; the first one was "Shakespeare in Love" , a movie based on his life and the inspiration for the tragedy "Romeo and Juliet".The second one was "Hamlet" a movie based on one of his most famous plays.

I believe that this project was very importat, because it helped us learn more about British culture and improve our nolage about this famous author.

With this project we have learnt a lot of new vocabulary with his plays and poems.However, it is really hard to understand because it's from the 16th century.In addition to that, I've learnt that when you love someone really hard sometimes you need to let them go.

SHOULD HEADING FOOTBALL BE ALLOWED UNDER THE AGE OF 14?

Nowadays, football is very popular and is loved by the majority of children. But only some people know the injures that football can make in their head.

On the one hand, people are not aware of this problem and they should be informed. The parents who want their children to become football players, join their children to academies and their children raise up training every single day. Moreover, to be a football player, you have to start playing it in a early age to have oportunities in the future. Also, football players start playing in teams at the age of 18 and the most of them finish playing it at the age of 35.

On the other hand, people have to know the damage that football can make to your brain. In football, heading the ball is important and the fans enjoy it, but it is really bad for the players, specially for the young ones. Heading the ball cause terrible things such as problems with their memory, suffer the post-concussions syndrome, that may cause emotional problems, and more. For that reason, doctors don't recomed to grow up heading a ball and suggest to start heading it until the age of 14.

In short, even thought if you want to be a football player should start training at a young age, I think that they must leave out heading balls until the age of 14. It's difficult because a football player head a ball thousands of times in his career but I believe that the health of the player is more important than the game.

WHAT DO YOU THINK ATHLETES HAVE TO GIVE UP IN ORDER TO BE THE BEST?

We all know that life of an athlete is not like that of a normal person. Until we can compare it, with the others celebrities only that in dedicated to theatre or music, is dedicated to the sport.

For these athletes to be the best they must must give up some of things. Things like stop going out clubbing, leave the alcoholic drinks, leave junk food.., in fact all those things that damage their body and their moral.

On the one hand I think that limits themselves of doing things like benefies them to improve their performance and be better. But on the other hand that could alienate them from their friends and family.

To sum up, I believe that for an athlete to be better he should avoid doing somethings but not be completly limited.

William Shakpeare

English playwright and poet. Only with his verses would he have passed into the history of literature; For his theatrical genius, and especially for the impressive portrayal of the human condition in his great tragedies, Shakespeare is considered the best playwright of all time.

Third of the eight children of John Shakespeare, a wealthy merchant and local politician, and Mary Arden. He was born in Stratford-upon-Avon on 26 April 1564 and died on 3 May 1616.

He was married to Anne Hathaway, a few years older, with whom he had 3 daughters and a son. He had no grandchildren.

In his twenties he moved to London, where he began his career as an actor and playwright.

Shakespeare's most outstanding works are: Macbeth (his shortest trgeia), A Midsummer Night's Dream (romantic comedy) and, Romeo and Juliet (tragedy)

The Buckingham Palace

Is the London official residence of the British Royal Family, since 1837. It is currently the residence of Queen Elizabeth ll.

It was built in 1703 or the Duke of Buckingham, it was later used by King George lll as a private residence. During the two world wars the palace survived in an exemplary way.

Buckingham Palace has 775 rooms. These include 19 State rooms, 52 Royal and guest bedrooms, 188 Staff bedrooms, 92 offices and 78 bathrooms. The building is 108 metres long across the front, 120 metres deep and 24 metres high.

Today, Buckingham Palace is very much a working building and the centrepiece of the UK's constitutional monarchy, serving as the venue for many royal events and ceremonies. More than 50.000 people visit the Palace each year.

Asteroids

I think isn't logical and it isn't worth spending so much, to defend our planet against the asteroids. Do not get me wrong with this.

Why?, Because suppose we spend all that to defend ourselves against asteroids, to be safe..... , but thatn does not really guarante our safety. Because we will remain at risk due to accidents (natural or artificial) ocurring on earth : an example are supernatural catastrophes such as “earthquakes” .

So I think it would be much better to spend that money on more important things like, the needs of society, starting first by poor countries.

Shakespeare in love

The story is set in the summer of 1593, a time when William Shakespeare begins to suffer a blockade in his literary production due to lack of inspiration. In search of a muse he casually meets Lady Viola (Gwyneth Paltrow), a young and rebellious aristocrat intent on interpreting the works of the author, a goal that will lead the protagonist to pose as a man so a secret romance with the beautiful Lady Viola Will make your words come out of your heart like they've never done before. But there are two secrets that he must discover about his new love … .

The film, if it is quite good and contains a beautiful love story, one who likes cinema, literature or history, should see Shakespeare in love. A charming film, with an admirable setting, a very successful wardrobe and a few more than respectable actors (we must also note the small roles of stars recognized as Rupert Everett and Ben Affleck)

Men and women should be allowed to play in the same team ? Subject.

The  century in which we live is one where people constantly fight for equality .Women have been rejected in all the areas. To start with , we have to question whether according to the fact , if can women get along with men.

On the one hand , wome, should play with men in teams ; because they have to fit in with each other. It should be said that the sportsmanship is very important in the participation of both sexes and a high self-esteem. Boys and girls can gain skills from playing with and against the opposite gender.

On the other hand , there is a significant difference in what boys play and what girls play. For example in most high schools today you'ill find most males playing football , basketball , and other various sports , girls pick out more for volleyball. Nevertheless , males biologically are faster and stronger. Women couldn't compete on a team with men.

To summarize , although women have few skills compared to men , women should to enhance their stamina and to be stronger. In the future ,women will play maybe in the same teams with men.
