The film ICE AGE 2

Ice Age two is a interesting film but is for young people, speak about a lot of animals who live in the Ice and the ice thaw. In my opinion the film is funny but have a parts or long dialogues between animals which are bore. When animals saw the thaw, they are obligated to leave the Ice into the forest. Main characters are Many a big mamoud, Diego a tall tiger and Perezoso is a strange animal and is very heavy.
Many think he is the only one of his specie but later discover another mamoud, who in the finish is her girlfriend. In the lake of the thaw life two big monsters and Many and company fight against these animals and killed him. The film is very interesant.

I have laernt: Main characters= personatges principals.
specie= Espècie. Thaw= Deshielo.

Discussion Essay: There are many arguments against being a celebrity

I’m going to write about celebrities because although they are famous and very rich, aren’ t always happy and every moment reporters ask him.

There are many disadvantages at being a celebrity, for a example this people can’ t go anywhere and usually have to have bodycards, whenever you go everybody reconizes you and ask for otographs and you can’t do anything and when you don’ t have a good work people critizices you. When you are angry with people, you are obligate to do a polite person, because your things are very important.

Finally to summarize what I said, I wouldn’ t like to be a celebrity because they doesn ‘ t live a real life. Often they are very stressed. I would prefer to be a small celebrity. Normal people have dream to be a celebrity, but this people don’t think the problems which have a celebrity person.

Transcription of my oral presentation

Scotland, scotland is situated on the north of England and in the north- east of Ireland. Capital of Scottland is Edinburg where live aaa four hundred and fifty thousand people. E The reason why Edinburg is capital is because is the sii is the most important city and the best of Great Brittain. Aaa other big cities in Scotland there are a big cities for example Glasgow and Aberdeen. Aaaa Glasgow have one point seven million of people but is a boring and industriall city and is in the centre of of the country. Aaa this is a photo of Edinbrug, the capital, aa and in the left on the left there are a important clothes shops, aa on the right the big castle of Edinburg and in the centre the most, ai the longest and most important street of city, Princes Street. And now the video! Ok aa, History, Scotland is a name from, a of an Irish tribe, Scotti who live in North East of Ireland and until twelve century Scotland was divided into provainces , into provinces, but story of Scotland is very old, it begans with the arrival of the Roman Empire in Brittain. When the Romans ocupp , ocupped the Scottland, Walles and England administering it is a Roman Province called Brittania. Aaa at the time people work in Fishing, hunting and , fishing, hunting and farming. Aaa The people are very supersticious, and the religion of this people is cristianity. Majority of people is a spoke a similar language of Latin, Gaelic, but now people speak English. In eighteen twenty nine, was born a Scottland Yard, is a metropolitan police who found the correct actitud of the people in the streets. Food, Scottissh food is different than English food, is more natural , aaa in original food aa of Scotland is fish, vegetables, fruits, cheese… I put three examples, aa Bluck Bun is a dessert which contains flour, butter, salt, lard, but doesn’t healthy, Crowdie is a cream cheese is to dessert contains blueberry, butter, honey, but it doesn’ t healthy Scottish Slamon is an original food which contains Salmon , eggs and pepper. The drink, the drink of Scotland is whisky aa, now there are many types of whisky, but I will talk about two , Malt Whisky and Blend Whisky. Malt whisky is very expensive and is better than Blend Whisky , buty is for rich people, normally. Whisky is frequently drank in Scotland, the people says: The water of life. Malt whisky, is a whisky which destilled at a single distillery and which is made completely from a single type of malted grain, normally barley. Is come in the country is imported in Scotland, Ireland and Japan, and blend whisky is a type of whisky of, is a product blending different types of whisky, is a mixing of is a mixing of different whiskys is the countries who imported are Scotland Ireland and Canada. And Whiskys production. Whisky is a great industry in Scotland. The first written record of whisky in Scotland is in fourteen ninety four and this date demostrate the old history of whisky and in the production of Scottish whisky the raw materials are barley, barley in catalan is cibada, a yeast es blat and water es aigua. And ee The process comprises five distinct stages. First, Malting, second mashing, third fermentation, fourth distillation, and fifth maduration. I thought one anecdoth in Scotland, is people when go to the pubs drink a beer and later, immendiatly , drink a a glass of whisky.
