In our English classes early in the morning we have got a big problem we haven't solved so far: Certain students arrive, put their schoolbags on their desks and are out like a light as soon as Albert starts talking. After some research a fact has shed light on this problem: our students don't have enough (or anything at all) for breakfast!!! Will there be light at the end of the tunnel? I hope so. After reading this post maybe our students will see the light and stop giving no importance to breakfast. Here you've presented with 4 expressions connected with light. You can check the meaning of each of them just below in the English in a Minute section.

Rafa Nadal Parera Description
ResponderEliminarRafa Nadal is a famous tennis player from Spain. He has short brown hair, tanned skin, and a strong body because he trains a lot. He always looks very focused when he’s on the court, but when he smiles, he seems really kind and friendly.
I admire Rafa because he never gives up, no matter how hard the match is. He’s very fast, and his shots are super powerful. People call him the “King of Clay” because he has won so many tournaments on clay courts. He’s also very humble and respectful, which makes him not just a great athlete but also a great person. I think Rafa Nadal is one of the best tennis players in the world and a true inspiration.

WHY TTRAVELLING IS WORTH IT
ResponderEliminarTravelling is the best way for enjoy and learn. I really belive that travelling changes your point of view from others countries. In my opinion travelling is the best way to make new friends.
To begin with, when we travel, we learn about other cultures, and diferent lifestyles. For instance, when I visited England, I tried local dishes and I meet new friends to know their daily life.
Secondly, travelling allows us to know more lenguages from others countries and know the history from those countries.
To conclude, travelling is a wonderfull experience. From my point of view, travelling is amazing to learn and socialize.

Have you ever wondered about the lifestyle in Spain? The living standard is very good, we have a lot of traditions and tourists love this country. Also Spanish people are very friendly.
ResponderEliminarSpain has a good living standard because it has a nice climate, the Mediterranean diet and free education. Moreover, many regions has a very interesting culture, and traditions that make a social life richer. Thanks to this Spain often seen as a countru with a high level of well-being.
On the other hand, one of the most important problems is unemployment, specially for young people, beause many have economic problems or unnstable jobs. yet, there are differences between regions, in some areas unemployment is much worse.
From my point of view, Spain offers a good quality of life but unemployment is still an important problem.
