Soul Surfer

Hi! I´m María and im going to speak about a film that i see this summer titled Soul Surfer

The film is based on a true story, the story of Bethany Hamilton, She live in Hawaii with her family, and like his father, her mather and their brothers she love the Surf.

Bethany is a very good surfer and with her best friend Alana Blanchard go to many competitions, in the last competition Bethany win and her best friend is third, the second is Malina, her bigger rival, Malina is a girl very competitive and dont has compassion.

One day Bethany and Alana go with Alana's family  to practice for the next competition and when Bethany was surfing a shark attack her and rips her arm, they go quickly to the hospital.

Bethany is very scared and sad because it may be that she cant surf more, but when the doctor remove her points she retorn to the water and she back to surfing for the copetition, but she fails the competition and decides not surf more, Bethany doesnt  know what to do with his life and is very sad, but the thousands of letters from her fans do that she regain confidence in herself and she back to training for competition,

Bethany listen her heart and she surfing very well, but Malina is very hard and  win unfairly, but for Bethany she win because she has worked hard and understands the meaning of life

In the real life Bethany Hamilton lost her arm when se has 13 years and now is a real professional surfer and win a lot the competitions with her best friend Alana.

I love very much this film because is very beautiful, I recommend it to everyone, sometimes is sad, but is realy nice and intereting and is the perefect film for the summer because is old the time on the beack, i like very very much.

New Tool To Fight Deadly Tsetse Fly

Hi, i'm María and i'm going to speak about  a very interesting news to save many lives in Africa

After 10 years of effort, a team led by scientists at Yale has finally decoded the genes of the tsetse fly, a bloodsucking scourge of Africa.
With that knowledge, they hope to find new ways to repel or kill the insects, whose bite transmits sleeping sickness, a parasitic disease that, like rabies, drives its victims mad before they lapse into a coma and die. The flies also carry nagana, which weakens or kills cattle and renders whole regions of Africa inhospitable to most livestock.
There are now fewer than 10,000 confirmed cases per year of sleeping sickness — formally known as human African trypanosomiasis — but the disease occurs in epidemics. As recently as 1998, the number of estimated cases was 300,000. Treatment is long and difficult, and without it, the disease is always fatal.

Exchange 2014

Hi Im Maria and Im going to speak about the exchange with France
Every year at my school ESO 3 do a exchange with France ,everyone were going to the house of a French family and  this serves to learn the language, to know more about the culture and also to learn to live with a family being a good host.

This year we go to Deauville (Normandie) is a very nice place!
during the week we did many things, we visited the city, we did a tour of le mont saint michel and advantage that we are in Normandy we work about the second world war and we visited a museum about the Normandy landing, the museum are very interesant.
All that was midweek but weekend everyone lived with his family

For me this exchange was amazing, I learned many things, I have gotten along well with my family and I have made many good friends. It was a very good experience and I'll never forget, though at first I was a little scared at the end everything went well. Everyone should do something because it's great
I really want to they come to Spain to see them all!!!

The kings

For me, the night of the 3 kings, Melchor, Gaspar and Baltasar is the best of christmas, i love this night and is the Spanish Christmas tradition, but i don't like becvause at the next day we hace school. In the night we let them chocolates and nuts to the kings and their camels and then we go to sleep. 
When we got up, running we will look for presents that are hidden around the house. When we find them, open them and "play" with them. For Carlos and Javi are two paddle raquets and for me are a jewelry and a Andy-z shoes. After breakfast and we went to play paddle at "Club Español de Tennis" 
Then we ate fish rice and for dessert the king cake, in then two figures are hidden, if ur the king you are crowned king and if you touch the aba, you have to pay the kings cake next year.
After the kings cake the day of the kings finished and wait until next year.
