Language



Language

Language is very important; because it’s the way to communicate with other people. Around the world, there are many kinds of language; for example, English, Spanish, Catalan, Portuguese and some others, it depends on the country and your culture.

However, exist a dialect, this is a form of language with grammar, pronunciation and vocabulary that difference from other forms of language; for example, it’s not the same meaning of one word in Colombia than in Costa Rica, this is part of a dialect of each country. For that is the phrase “separated by the same language”

Another important aspect is the accent; this is part of the culture of the person, because the accent shows the native country; for example the people of U.S.A have a different accent than the people of Italy.

We have to preserve the language because its part of our culture and our identity, the language distinguishes us from other people.

Extreme Sports



Extreme Sports


Extreme sports are dangerous activities that are practiced in extreme conditions. The people practiced these sports should take into account the physical condition, because it’s important to have strength to practice any sport. For example, to skate boarding is necessary to have strength in the legs, but to climbing, it is necessary to have the strength in the hands and legs. But, also it’s very important the emotional strength, because sometimes it’s difficult to finish the challenge, then its here when the athlete needed the motivation like an “I have to finish this, because I can to do” and I think that it’s more easy if you have motivation or if you want to achieve this.
Obviously, each sport has a technique to practice successful. And this technique only can be achieved if the person trains so hard.

There are many kinds of extreme sports; for example, surfing, kite surfing, “rapids”, rafting, kayaking and more; sky diving, parachuting, motocross, supercross, drifting and motorcycle rally; bungee jumping, parachuting; ice and rock climbing and also are the boards sports like a snowboarding, windsurfing, skateboarding and more.
For me, it’s very dangerous to practice some of these sports; in my case, I never will to practice this, because I am scare about that.

Fraud!!!




Anybody can be victim of fraud; we have to be careful with our personal identification, because the thieves can steal our name, address, and things like this and with this information they can open credit cards and make accounts in the name of a victim, and then the victims have to pay for something they didn’t buy; in this case, the fraud is called identify theft.
There are so many ways to steal personal information; for example, we have to take into account: never give personal information to strange people, when somebody call you because allegedly you won a prize and then ask for personal information. It is better ignore these kinds of calls or when you receive an e-mail that ask you to deposit money in a bank account, you have to be sure who is the person, if you aren’t sure you don’t deposit anything, these are some examples of fraud.
Now, is easy to steal personal information with the internet, only you have to write the name of the person and the computer give us some information, for that we have to be careful. And the people not only can be victims of economic fraud, but also the thieves use personal information to false married.
Now, the people feel paranoid, because are exposed to fraud; they are afraid because in any moment can be victims of a fraud.
