You are amazing; you are Human!
(read page 72)

You really are amazing!
The human body is a complex machine. But many people do not take enough care of their complex machines.
However just like any machines, sometimes they go wrong from old age. The better you take care of it, the longer it will last.

Tips form Anais:

1.- If you're going to Ensenada, you should visit La Bufadora. It is a blowhole in the coast near Ensenada.
2.- You should also eat seafood, especially the typical fish tacos.
3.- It is important to bring a sweater with you because the weather can change drastically.
4.- If you're going to Ensenada, you should not mess the sea. During the summer you can even swim!

 REFLECTION ON WHAT I`HAVE LEARNED:

This week I learned many elements that contain an article in the introduction, method, results and discussion.
Another important point that we saw this week was the difference between active and passive voice. Which can be found in the method (procedure).
I think this would help me, not just in English classes, so in the course of my career and my professional studies.
Exercise B, Page 110:

1.- I hope to go to the party by Karla at night.
2.- I expect to finish my degree next semester.
3.- I looking for ward to the holidays to get out of town.

4.-    MOVIE REVIEW:

''The Pursuit of Happiness''  Difficult Times in Life.

by: Karina Anais Martin's Garcia

Can you be happy without money? Money is important, but sometimes you do not need too much to make a child happy. The movie, The Pursuit of Happiness shows that love is more important, than money. In my opinion, this is a great movie and people should take the message that it shows.

This is a true story, based on the relationship between a boy and his father, and the economic problems they have. Mr. is a salesman but the situation is difficult, and the wife will not sell much. Living on the streets until Mr. Finds a job and is now an important person in the world.

The main character is Will Smith and for me, he is a very handsome and good actor. This movie is the best he has performedin.

This movie makes me cry and love my parents more. I think that it is the best movie I have ever seen.
