I, robot

I, robot is a hollywood's film with the protagonist Will Smith.

Will Smith is one of my favourites actors that did other beautiful films like I'm Legend.

I like the film I, robot because is based in the book that I readed for the school this term. It ask if it's possible the life of the androids, of electric sheeps, etc.

We can see that Will in the film hope the robots, he thinks that they can be evils. Finally it's true but he can't stop the rebelion of the androids.

My english 2007-2009

1. Analyse your work

- Compare the first written document you produced (email to teacher) and your last composition.

Comparing my first text with my last composition, The writing about the psychologists, I can see a evolution in my expression: more vocabulary, connectors, different verbs, the structure…

- Compare your first oral presentation and your final oral presentation.
Can you see any differences? Which? Give some examples.

Yes, I can. I think that I’m very better than before speaking. I can see more spontaneous when I speak, I’m more convinced.

Can you give linguistic arguments to support your analysis? Yes, now I use some phrasal verbs, difficult vocabulary (waistcoats, wealthy men…), etc.

Can you see a personal development in these documents? Yes I can.

Writing

Write about the influence of psychologists on our society. Are they well considered? Could they be the answer to our psychological necessities?

Now a days on our society psychlogists are considered as good professionals about the behaviour of humans.

But according to my opinion we could live without psychologists, we should live without psychologists. For me psychologists are the consequence of a degenerated society. If we need psychologists is because the society make a kind of human who can not live independently. If you are different from the others, the society will think that you are a bad person. And that isn't correct: the kinf of human of actual society makes the person small, weak and dependence of the others.

So, I think that psychologists are a bad indicator of the state of our society.

Writing

Think of a profession that is dying out, for example a shepherd or a farmer. Write a dialogue with one of the last shepherd/ farmers in your country. Talk about their way of life now and before.

To find a farmer and speak with him I went to a village where I lived some years ago: Fortià. The name of the farmer is Pere:

D: Hello Pere!
P: Hi.
D: Do you remember me? I’m Daniel.
P: Yes, of course! How are you?
D: Fine. Well, I’d like to speak with you about your job. It’s for a project for the school!
P: Okay.
D: I want to know what you have to do if you want to become a farmer.
P: It depends. There are different types of farmers: the farmers that cultivate wheat and other farmers like me who take care of animals…
D: And what animals have you got?
P: Now I have cows.
P: Well the most important thing is to feed the cows, of course. Also we have to clean the cows and the place, they are very dirty, boy! And the most important, we have to milk the cows!
D: Yes, this is an important part. The profit of the cows is the milk that you sell, isn’t it?
P: Yes! But it isn’t very easy. When we have the milk we have to go to the cooperative of the region. Here there are other farmers that sell their milk. Then the cooperative sells all the milk and after words they distribute the profit depending on the quantity of the milk that you put. It’s relative. Do you understand?
D: Yes, yes. But I’m thinking that if you don’t have a lot of milk, you won’t earn a lot of money… am I right?
P: Yes, it is one of the problems of this job… but I like it!
D: I know! And do you think that now it is better than some years ago?
P: It’s different. The advantage is that now there are new technologies and machines that make the work easier.
D: And before you milked the cows with your hands, right?
P: Yes, times change.
D: And do you think that before there were more farmers than now?
P: Yes, before an important percentage of the population was devoted to farming. Nowadays there are very few farmers. Moreover these farmers are old, like me.
D: So the job is dying out, isn’t it?
P: Yes, it’s a pity.
D: Why?
P: Because it isn’t only a job, it’s a style of a life…
D: Yes, it’s true. Well, I think that we’ve finished!
P: Okay. You could come again!
D: I will try. Thanks!
P: You are welcome.
D: Good bye.
P: Bye!

The film: Harry Potter and the prisoner of Azkaban

Harry Potter and the prisoner of Azkaban is the third film and book of the collection. In the film the most important is that it shows the emotions of Harry, and the principal characte not is Lord Voldemort, like the other films. Now, principally it shows the friends and the family of Harry Potter, as Sirius Black, is a family, and James Potter who finally will be the evil of the film. Also, Harry discovers secrets of his friends of childhood

I think that see this film and all the films of Harry Potter is interesting for the fantasy and the intrigue.
