He noticed that the cat looked him  bad, that only trusted his wife, it ignored him. One day he had come home  drunk and  he decided to kill the cat with an ax, but his  wife  tried to avoid, and eventually  he killed her.
The man decided to make a hole in the wall,  he put the body and covered him as if the wall was intact,  he continued his intention to kill the cat, but he did not find it.
Soon after, people suspected of the disappearance of their neighbour, and police incriminating him as the main suspect.
One day the police came to his home to do an inspection and they found nothing, but began to hear  miaowing from the basement, the officers were guided by them and found something behind the wall, they shot it and they saw that there was a cat miaowing and a dead woman.

My special ability

Everyone has some or several abilities. One of mine is that I'm good at many sports.

I'm good at most sports that I practise, for example like football, basketball, paddle, swimming, etc.

When I was young, I always liked to play with balls. At the age of 6, I could play football very well, and slowly, any sport that I practised, I was good.

Sometimes, I played with kids, who played very well their favourite sport, and I hardly never played that sport, and I was to their level game. Some people were surprised. 

I'm so greatful to have this ability, because I can practise any sport and I know I'll be good at it. I hope this ability lasts many years.

New Year's Eve

These christmas have been perfect, but the best day was  New Year's Eve.

Well, I spent christmas in Ronda (Málaga), where all my family live. The 31st of december was the last  day of the year and Ispent that special night with my family. It was special day because it was one of few days, that all of my family were together.

That morning, when I woke up, I read a book for an hour. After that, as usual, I went to my cousin's house to play videogames.I almost always have lunch there. At four o'clock I took a nap until seven o'clock. I slept a lot!.

We spent New Year's Eve at my grandmother's house. At half past nine, all the family were already seated to eat. I ate a lot of meat, seafood, salads,etc....

At quarter to twelve, we were ready to take the grapes.And it was the first year that I did not choke on the grapes!

We spent the whole night dancing, singing and playing with my small cousins. It was wonderful! I slept at half past six.

I spent a wonderful day with my family, and I hope that next year will be better!

SONG

In the  english class, we had done a power point presentation, that  it consisted  of describing several photos that were related to the themes of  the song.

We have chosen IMAGINE, of John Lennon, because we thought that it was easy to relate photos with this song. All this  photos are related with themes of the song. We also have an activity, that you can do at the end.

These are the pictures:





     


This is the song





And this is the activity, you have to fill the gaps of the lyrics of the song:


Imagine

Imagine _______ no heaven 
It's easy if you try 
No hell _______ us 
Above us only sky 
Imagine all the people 
Living for today... 
Imagine there's no ______
It isn't hard to do 
_____ to kill or die for 
And no religion too 
Imagine all the people 
Living life in peace... 

You _____ say I'm a dreamer 
But I'm not the only one 
I hope someday ______ join us 
And the world will be as one 

Imagine no possessions 
I _____ if you can 
No need for _____ or hunger 
A brotherhood of man 
Imagine all the people 
_____ all the world... 

You may say I'm a _____
But I'm not the only one 
I hope someday you'll join us 
And the world will _____ as one.

SCARY MOVIE

We had to make a scary movie for English. We had a lot of fun and we had few problems. In my group we were: Pedro Gómez, Marta Fraile, Elena Pérez, Víctor Burgos, Miguel Paúl and me, Juan Antonio Rodríguez. 

Our idea was that the world was habited by zombies, but there were three survivals who were lost. They were hungry, they didn't have any food to eat, so they looked for it..

We recorded The second of november,  in Victor's house and  in Zaudin. We recorded in two hours.

All of us had to have make up, to transform ourselves into  zombies. You should have seen us!jajaj

We did not have any problems because all of us could record at any moment. We recorded each scene several times because we laughed a lot. 

I have worked very well with my classmates. I hope to repeat this experience again as an actor. It was AWESOME!.

Here you have the film and the script, I hope you enjoy it!

THANKSGIVING DAY

I want to say thanks for new technologies because nowadays we can do things that in the past we can't.

Right now, we can have internet out of our houses in our mobile phones. If you want to look for information when you are out of your house.

New technologies also allow us to see our friends by using a webcam and instant messaging over the Internet, through programmes like skype.

It also allows us to play games consoles, that has good graphics, and games seem very real. Many children have it at home, even adults  play with games consoles.

This is part of new technologies, which make us live better, and for this I'm so grateful! Thanks.

TENNIS


  The modern game of tennis originated in late 19th century Birmingham, England. Most historians believe that tennis started from 12th century France, (but the ball was struck with the palm of the hand). Tennis was called ‘’ Jeu de Paume’’. Tennis was created by European monks for entertainment roles during ceremonial occasions. Louis X of France was a player of ‘’Jeu de Paume’’, which evolved into real tennis, and he became notable as the first person to construct indoor tennis courts in the modern style.

In Tennis there are many tournaments. The best four tournaments are Roland Garros(Paris ,France) Wimbledon (London, England), Us Open (New York, USA) and Australian Open (Melbourne, Australia). There are other tournaments like Masters 1000 (Madrid, Rome, Miami, Shanghai, Montreal, etc).  There are three types of courts: Hard, Clay and Grass.
Now, the best players are:

 Novak Djokovic 1º (Serbia)                                                            


Rafa Nadal  2º (Spain)                                               

Roger Federer 3º (Switzerland)





Andy Murray 4º (Scotland)
