FACTS ABOUT HEALTH AND EATING.


Hi, how are you? I´m fine, ok. Today I´m going to talk about what we should eat and what we should do to be healthy, since I read an article and it seemed very interesting to me, in this article I read that we should eat soya because it help us to keep our healthy skin, as well help us to keep our healthy heart, and it helps people who suffer from osteoporosis and cholesterol, in the same way is recommendable to eat many fruits, vegetables and whole grains because it help us to prevent the age-related macular degeneration (ARMD) by 35%, since it affects 1.75 millon americans and is one of the most important causes of blindness in older adults.

Likewise is advisable not smoking, not drinking in excess, do exercise, and maintaining a healthy weight, and to have also a balanced diet, since if we follow those advises we will get reduce the risk of heart disease by 87%. On the other hand, as you know we shouldn´t eat fatty foods because it has a negative impact on our health, but if we take a brish walk after a meal, we can reduce some of the risk of eating too much fat. In the same way is recommendable don´t consume too salt, since it affects seriously our health, and also is very important you drink tea, because it not only replaces fluid but also is rich in disease- preventing antioxidants, one to six cups of tea daily can lower you risk for heart disease and increase your antioxidant status, ok... that´s all for today, have a nice day and follow these important recommendations. Bye.

ANOREXIA


Hi, how it’s going! Today I´m going to talk about a topic which I believe is very interesting, this topic is called “anorexia”, and I think can be of great importance for you, ok.. Anorexia is a nourishing disorder which begins to develop between ages 12 to 14, or later in adolescence, at about age 17, the cause is unknown, I think this illness could be caused by lack of affection, attention, and love on the part of their parents, and person who suffer it, try to attract attention of any way.

The main symptoms are unnatural or obssesive preoccupation with food, dieting and weight, distorted body image and intense fear of gaining weight, cessation of menstrual periods, excesive exercising,inability to concentrate, lack of energy, weakness, fatigue and depression among others, what is more we can find two types of anorexia. The restricting type, it is when the sick lose weight through of the diet, and she/he does excessive excercise, the other type is the binge- eating purshing and it´s more complicated because can be confused with bulimia. The main symptoms in this type are purgue after eating only small amounts of food, and misusing laxatives, diuretics among others, in the same way there are two important points about the treatment for anorexia, first, denial what is usually up to a family member or close friend to recognize the problem and get the patient into treatment, second continued treatment and monitoring is crucial because anorexia is often a chronic and recurring condition.

Finally I think is very important parents give them all his love, attention, and warmth, in this way anorexics will feel better and will have a great success in his/her treatment.

A LAW TO HELP PROTECT EAGLES.


Many species are now in danger of becoming extinct. One of the most importants is “the eagle”, because many people pursue, shoot, poison, wound, kill, capture, to set a trap, collect, molest o disturb, sell, import or export their eggs.

I think a good way to control the problem would be prohibit the sale, possession, export or import of this specie, and I also think that should increased civil penalties, or in other words people who attack these beautiful birds should get a punishment, I believe penalties could include a maximum of six years in prison, laws should be more stricts, in this way people who commit this kind of crimes will learn the lesson and will think before do it. Unfortunately most of people are unconscious and don´t realized they are ruined their natural habitat, depriving them of food and shelter. And is sad to see how a specie disappear, by this reason if you are interesed in helping the eagles you can help them include making monetary donations and supporting groups that help the eagles. I think their situation will improve because of these efforts and with each person who helps, and I believe their chances of surving will be better.

LAST NIGHT I FINALLY DECIDED TO ASK ELISA TO BE MY GIRLFRIEND.


We’ve been sharing so much time together at school and I’ve come to the conclusion that she’s the one, I’d like to get to know in another level. I thought about it for quite some time because if she says “no” I think that’s going to hurt our friendship, but I’ll take the risk.
I love the way we get along, she seems to understand what I think even before I mention it, and exactly the same happens to me when it comes to her thoughts.
We both have been without a significant relationship for some time now and that gave us the opportunity to share time together until I found she was very important to me.
This happened the day we all had a party. Everyone was there when I arrived but not her I felt lonely without her, I suddenly realized I felt incomplete and that´s when I decided to ask her out on a date, I don’t know what her answer is going to be, but it’s going to happen the same If I don’t ask, so, tonight is the night.

Finally I arrived to her house and I gave her a bunch of flowers, she told me “oh, thanks, the flowers are beautiful”, she was very surprised and I tell her “you are the more beautiful of all the flowers”, I felt embarrased and she was blushed, in that moment she realized of my real intentions, after that I ask her if we could go to my favorite restaurant and she told me “yes, of course, let`s go”, I opened her the door of my car and she told me “how nice of you”, after a while we arrived to my favorite restaurant, it was a elegant restaurant,we sat, and we ordered chinese food, the waiter told us “their orders will be ready in a minute”, I was getting very nervous, I spoke in a trembling voice, my hands and my legs were trembling all the time, I didn’t know how to express her my feelings, we were talking about our families, our job and the school, I took to her house, that night I couldn’t express what I feel for her.

After two days she celebrated her birthday in her house, and I brought some chocolates and a teddy bear for her, then I found the time to declare my love to her, I took her by the hand, I couldn’t take my eyes off her, finally I told her what I felt and she told me “I had been waiting this moment a long time ago, after that give us a kiss and now we are very happy together.

ADVANTAGES AND DISADVANTAGES OF WATCHING TV.


Hi!, how are you?, I´m fine, ok.. Today I´m going to talk about some advantages and disadvantages of watch TV. I think is a very interesting topic for us, since television to play an important part in our life despite influence of the internet and other technologys of information.

I think one of the most important disadvantages is wasting time, since some people to spend long hours watching tv programmes what are not useful for them, I like to watch tv, but I don´t spend much time in front of this, I spend one or two hours daily when I have time and when I feel bored and I want to see interesting things what happen around the world, but on the other hand I think people who spend long hours in front of the television could do another kind of activities in that time, for example they could practice any sport as for example to play volleyball or to play football, or they also could read books or going to the theatre, among other things, in the same way I think to watch tv is harmful to our eyesight, since our eyes get tired and after we have to wear glasses, I think also people become tv addicts, in the same way I think another disadvantage is when children to see violence acts on the television because it affect their phase of growing, they also try to imitate to the characters.

On the other hand one of the most important advantages of watching tv is that we improve our knowledge, since for example when we watch news or when we watch scientific channels, we have the opportunity of to be well informed about what´s happening around the world, in my personal opinion when we watch news we learn new vocabulary, in this way we improve our cultural heritage. Another advantage is that we get entertainment, many competitions can be watched, I remember when I watched the Olympic Games, I felt really very excited and I could get a lot of fun. I also think with the help of tv it´s possible to learn foreign languages, another advantage is that we can select programmes what we want to see, but I think one important advantage is that we can provide our creativity, because for example when I watch tv I can imagine a lot of things and it help me when I do my homework, ok that´s all see you the next week.
