Internet

Internet is a resource that has advantages and disadvantages:
Principally, It’s a quick and easy way of looking for information’s, but It always isn’t the correct information. Likewise Internet is an easy searching of information. Many students depend on It and they don’t try and work on other things too. In the computer, by means of Internet, you can download information and sofwares, but you put at risk that somevirus come in to your computer.

With Internet you can find the nomadays news. You can buy and study a degree. However, all these things can create a dependence or internet’s addiction for some people. It is also possible to meet people because the comunication is easier by Internet. But it has a problem, too: It’s dangerous because everybody can know you.

In spite of the fact that Internet has advantages for a lot of things, there are countries, like Spain, where Internet is very expensive in comparation to other countries, like England.

Finally, all people must use Internet in a free way but with carefully.

Eclipse

Eclipse is a book of the twilight's saga, written by Stephenie Meyer. This book was published in 2007 by Atom.Stephenie Meyer was born in 1973, 24th December in Hartford (Unites States). Meyer studied in Brigham Young University and she graduated in English literature. Now, she lives with her husband and three sons in Arizona. Stephenie Meyer is a famous writer from her first novel Twilight and the sequels New Moon, Eclipse and Breaking Down that are international Best Seller.

In this episode, Temper, Edward went with his brothers to hunt while Bella had to be with Alice in the Cullen's House in a slumber party with the vampires. The next day, when Bella and Alice arrived to high school, Bella found Jacob there, and they went to La Push. There, they start to remember old times and Bella told him that she will be a vampire in few weeks. They discussed and Bella come back to Cullen's house. There, in the night, Edward comes back and they talk about themselves, Jacob and Edward told her a part of his life in Denali.

My opinion: I picked this episode because it is one of my favourites, because there are a lot of important things in the story, such as: Bella tells Jacob that she will be a vampire; Edward accepts that Bella can go to la Push with werewolf... And because there is love, friendly, humour... And I read this and a part of Nature's episode, because it appears one of my favourites sentence in the book:

<< I'll de back so soon you won't have time to miss me. Look after my heart –I've left it with you>>.
I like this sentence because it is very beautiful and also it caught my attention because Edward said that his heart left with Bella, like if he hasn’t heart.
Also, another paragraph that caught my attention is that:

<<Finally, exasperated at myself more than the magnets, I pulled them from the fridge and held them together with two hands. It took a little effort –they were strong enough to put up a fight –but I forced them to coexist side-by-side. >>
Here, Bella tries to put magnets in the fridge, and never she has got it. But in this moment she gets it.

In my conclusion I think that as in the end of the books, there is a war, where vampires and werewolfs have to work together for protecting the Forks and Bella. And finally, they work together thank to Bella, occur the same with the magnets.
Also, in this episode appear words that I don't know, as:

-No reason for fresh panic.
- …If it wasn't a little foolish.
- We'd never allow...
-Why Edward drag me to Florida?
- …Edward is just the teeniest bit prone to overration.
- …Other things almost as stress to dwell.
- It took a little effort.
- …Charlie's blatant preference unfair...
- Jacob chuckled once...
-. He hesitated for a moment.
- He turned to stare to me.
-She of all people might feel that way.
- I sound really creepy…
- I traded a life time.
- He was a good and a furnace.
-The treaty is meaningless.
- He glared sourly al my forehead, not meeting my shamed gaze.
- I felt none of his weight.
- I can handle.
- I ditched school.
- I was interested in something much more pressing.
- I was unable to squirm even an inch.
-Her hair is strawberry blonde.
- I scowled.

I picked this books because in the Twilight’s saga is with Twilight my favourite book.

Moondial

Moondial is a Helen Cresswell’s book. She was born in 1934 in Nottingham (central England) and she started to write stories when she was 7 years old. She studied at London University, and was a teacher before of she was a children’s books writer. She writes two kinds of stories: one of them about magical words, like: Where the Wind blows; another is about funny stress about real life, like: Jumbo Spencer. Her first book was The Piemakers, she combined both types. She continued writing books in the 60s and the beginning 70s. Then in 1973 she wrote the vey popular Lizzie ripping stories. Since them, she has adapted and written some more stories for the television, like: Lizzie Dipping, The Bagthorpe Saga, The secret world of Ply Flint and Moondial. In Moondial (1987) she returns to write for the world magic, with witches and evils. The idea of the story came from the Belton House, a National trust house and garden in Lincolnshire, It can be visited by the public.

In the book, the garden is described as it is in the real life, with its paths and trees, and the sundial statue of Chronos and Eros. In 1988, this book was adapted in the television. In Moondial, Helen Cresswell tells the story of Minty. She went to the village Belton for the summer holidays with her aunt Mary, because Kate, her mother, works in the hospital. Minty is a witch, and when she says the word Moondial, she can travel in the past time. There, Minty must release Sarah with the Tom’s help. And she will meet Miss Raven, a writer of ghost books, who hides a mysterious secret.

My opinion: this book likes me from the story. The story is very interesting. Helen Cresswell describes the stands and the story very well and it likes me too. In the book thee are pictures is describing the scenes with sentences important for the story. Also, the word Moondial caught my attention. In the beginning, I don’t know what is the relation with the novel, but after appear an interesting paragraph:

<< ‘A sundial’ she sad softly, and then, without knowing why – ‘Moondial’ As she spoke the word, a cold wind went past her, and her ears were filled with thousand frightened voices. She shut her eyes and put her hands over her ears - and the voices and the wind went away. Minty opened he eyes… and knew she was in a different morning, not the one that she had woken up to. >>.

I think is a magic word. But, I don’t know, and in the novel doesn’t appear, if Minty always knows this word or she says this word because she is in the appropriated stand.

There are paragraphs that caught my attention, as:

<< ‘Minty’ told him. ‘It’s short for Araminta.’ ‘An unusual name for an unusual person.’ He said. ‘Am I right? You’ve come to meet the children, haven’t you? ‘Are the children living in the House? She said, surprised. ‘I didn’t say anything about living.’ He spoke quietly and watches her carefully. ‘Yu mean… ghosts?’ she said. ‘I didn’t say that. But when I saw you, I thought, “That’s the one to let those children free!” I hear their voices in the wind. They’re asking me to help them, but I can’t do anything. But now you’ve come. ’‘Yes, I’ve come’.She did not really understand what the old man was saying, but she knew for sure that something strange, and perhaps dangerous, was waiting for her. >>.

This conversation is very important for the story, because it explains what happened, what happen and what will happen. But I didn’t understand, because the old man knows what happen and how he knows that Minty can speak with the past ghosts.

Also, there is another sentences that caught my attention:<>.

I don’t understand what mean this phase.

Also there is word that I don’t understand and there is another that remembers me what it means. I didn’t know:-

-She had woken at night to see shadowy.
-Her eyes looked wild and shocked.
-See if world is there, at the lodge.
-gave the door a push.
-There were paths.
- I want to be a footman.
-He was standing with his back against into him.
-Minty saw the dark purple birthmark.
-Sarah looked round wildly.
-She could reach Tom and sarah.
-Were Kate lay.-
Minty! Minty’ came a whisper

This is a part of the words, but those, I didn’t know.
I like his book very much.

With the train we were in the mountain. After we arrived in another station and we took another train, for going to the port and there, we went up a boat that took us to Saclobra, a small village, where we ate good food in a restaurant. We walk to the village until that the turistic’s guide said us that we had to come back. The bus, for going to an exhibition, we went past from a dangerous road in the mountain.

Apart of this, , I went to Granada, 11th and 12th July, We were in Colomera’s village. We were there only two days with my dad’s family. And we were in a beautifull acommodation. When we arrived, we saw a part of the village and later we ate with the family, 50 people. When we finish, I went with my sister and my cousins to the swimming pool and rested in the bedroom. In the evening, we went to dinner in my great-aunt’s house. The next day, we went to Granada and saw the city, a market and the Alhambra, but only from out, because we hadn’t time. After we went a restaurant for eat. We ate the typical food. And we came back to Valencia.


My opinion: I like these villages because I hadn’t been there: Mallorca and Granada. I saw new things. But I prefer to travel to north..

The Eight

The Eight was published in 1988 and It was written by Katherine Neville. She was born in 1954, 4th of April, in San Luis (Missouri). Katherine Neville’s worked as an international computer executive and consultant, principally in finance and energy; she has lived and has worked in six countries on three continents and half of the states in the U.S. She worked for the IBM, the Bank of America, OPEC, and the US Department of Energy.
Katherine did her post-graduate studies in African Literature. She has worked as a commercial photographer, portrait painter, busboy, waiter, and model.

After, in the eighty, she started to write. Her first novel is A Calculated Risk. The others novels that she has written were The Eight, the Magic Circle. Every of her books are bestsellers in more than thirty languages.
On December, she published the Fire, the continuation of the Eight.

The Eight is a mystery’s novel. Katherine mixes times, places and characters. The book is divided in two stages. The first part is focused in 1972. The main character of this part is Catherine Velis. The other part was in 1790 by Mireille de Remy. The principal story is the mysterious Montglane’s chess.

Sypnosis

New York City, 1972. Catherine Velis works as computer science expert for the Fulbright, Cone, Kane & Upham Company. This company, assigns her to Algeria, but, before of go there; a clairvoyant warns her that she is in danger. After, an antique dealer offers her an offer: a client of him, is interesting in collect some old chess’s pieces, the Montglane’s chess. Cat accepts it. But, She doesn’t know when arrived to Algeria, is that her life changes absolutely, that she is going to discover the secret of the mysterious Montglane’s chess, because she has entried in the game.

The South of France, 1790. Mireille de Remy and her cousin Valentine are young novices at the Montglane Abbey. The French revolution is starting and between their projects want to finish with the Church and get its treasure. In the Abbey, for thousand years, are the Montglane’s peaces chess, once it was own Charlemagne. Who gets collect it, where is a mysterious formula, this person gets a power. And, these girls, Mireille and Valentine must to hide, these pieces, for the world.

My opinion: The eight’s book I surprise me because Katherine Neville mixes history, places, time, characters and fictitious characters. Also, I like that in each episode of the book there are quotes and paragraphs of poets, writers and Scientifics famous.As Lewis Carroll and his work: Through the Looking-Glassin.

The story there are extracts in the novel that caught my attention, as:

-You have to convert the mathematics in music…its magic!
-The mathematics is music… and vice- versa

this is an important topic in the book. The first time that I read it, I didn’t understand it, but while you read the novel, you discover that it’s true. Also the book’s title caught my attention: The Eight. In the story, there are references to this number: in the chess, in the Cat’s hand…. And the form as Katherine Neville sets out the life, as a chess game. I like the story very much, for the topic, the story… and everything.

C L I M A T E C H A N G E

The atmosphere is formed for a lot of gases. The gases that are abundant in the atmosphere are nitrogen and oxygen. The rest of the gases are called “of greenhouse”, such as the carbon dioxin, the methane…
The gases of greenhouse are very important for the life. When the energy of the sun arrived to the earth, such as light and heat, these gases make that a little part of the energy arrived to the earth, and it send the rest to the space. These gases are called of greenhouse and help us with the temperature; because it make that the temperature is good for the life. But, with the temps, the human activities, such as the industry, the automobile…, have provoked that there is an increase of these gases. For this reason the temperature of the earth has increased and it is called “the Climate Change”.

The climate change is a change that the earth is experimenting. This is provoking a lot of consequences:

The temperature of the earth will increase.

There will be more heat wave.

The droughts and floods will be stronger than now and there will be more hurricanes.

There will be more rainfall, but it will rain few days and more heavily.

The North/ South Pole, with the heat, they are starting to thaw and it can provoke an increase of the sea’s level. And many coastal cities would be under water.

Many animals’ specie will wipe out.

But, everything isn’t lost yet. Now we can solve it. Everybody should begin to use renewable energy, not use cars so much, and not waste energy and water… Use Energy Saving Light Bulbs. We can increase the natural places, such as plant a tree, recycle…
But the most important is: “be conscious of our activities”, We think that these activities are very important for our life, but it is damaging the earth. We are damaging it.

My opinion: I have decided to make this blog about this matter because I consider it very important and we should start to do something to prevent that this situation can be worse in the future.
