BEING A TEACHER....

BEING A TEACHER IS A DIFFICULT TASK NOWADAYS, SO I DECIDED TO FOLLOW THIS PIECE OF ADVICE BY BRUCE LEE:

Empty your mind, be formless. Shapeless, like water. If you put water into a cup, it becomes the cup. You put water into a bottle and it becomes the bottle. You put it in a teapot it becomes the teapot. Now, water can flow or it can crash. Be water, my friend.

Are you interested in economy? Is this an economic crisis or a slight economic slowdown?

Let's read an article about economy (Brazil overtakes UK as sixth-largest economy) as it is an important issue that may be selected for your next Selectivity exam in June. Pay attention to the vocabulary and if you find any other article, please send it to me.

  1. I'm not interested in economy at all, but I guess that these days we don't have another choise but to be in it.
    Regarding the article, I want to emphasize one reason about why is Brazil growing so much: 'its highly educated workforce and skills in growth areas from IT and services to engineering will push the economy into fifth place'
    I think education and innovation will be the thinks that the countries should find to get the economic power that they want so much.
    Really, I don't considered myself a communist, but according to Jonh Lennon's song: 'Imagine there's no countries' , 'imagine there's no possessions' , 'no need for greed'. I think that the first thing we should get, instead of science, likewise very important.

  2. I´m not an expert in economy (I don´t like it so much), or a clairvoyant, who can say what could happen in the futur according to our world economy. But what I know sure, is that our economic situation in Europe isn´t very well (and neither isn´t going to be very well). You must not be a genious for know it...jeje.
    I think that´s normal that Europe will be have more poverty in the future and that other lands will be richer, because in my opinion, our economic system, the capitalism, has got a cyclic economy, and actually Europe is getting worser and worser...
    PS: Perhaps, it would be better to emigrate to brazil... jeje.

  4. In my opinion I think the economy isn't going very well in all over the world, that is the most important thing. But it isn't the same in all over the world, one of this examples is Greece because it has got a lot ransoms and this is a problem for Europe. So we can go to Brazil :).

    In Spain is going to pass the same like Greece because there are 4.5 millions of unemployeds.

    We must do something because this economic crisis and no, a slight economic slowdown, is very important and is going to be lasting.

  5. I am interested in economy.
    When it began this economic crisis I was thinking that it was going to affect neither his me nor to any of my relatives, It was one of these things that since you do not want that it affects you you think that it is something foreign and that I was not going to notice it so nearby.
    Now I have realized that of a form or other one it concerns the whole world, because surely there will be persons who say, to me it I have many dineros and a fixed work .., but for example, before you were going to any restaurant to eat with your friends or relatives and there were great more people in the restaurant before the crisis that now.

  6. I'm not really interested in economy.
    I think the new world situation is worrying. Many people are unemployed and thousands of families can't eat. Every day the situation will get worse and young people must be prepared for a life change.
    It is important to learn languages, study, travel and take every opportunity.
    I think someday people will be more cohesive but I think there will always be rich people who only think about money and not to help.
