NEWS: FIRST WOMB-TRANSPLANT BABY BORN

I choose this news because I think that it's very interesting and when I read it has impressed me. It's a beautiful news and I would like to share it with all of you. 

Summary:
A women in Sweden had a baby using a transplanted womb received from a friend of 60. Cancer treatment and birth defects are the reasons because women haven't got a functioning womb.

We don't know who is this couple but the mother's ovaries still had functioning. Doctors at the University of Gothenburg did the womb transplant. Women needed drugs to prevent the womb being rejected. A year after the transplant, doctors decided to implant one of the frozen embryos for start the pregnancy. The baby was born prematurely, with 32 weeks. Mum and baby now are well. Father said: "He's no different from any other chil, but he will have a good story to tell".

My opinion: 
What I think about this news? Well, as I say before, this news has impressed me. It's a very good example that medicine is always progressing and it's a good thing for humanity. I think that all women, with a birth defects or something like this need to have the opportunity to have a baby, because this it's one of the amazing things in women's life.

EMAIL TO MY TEACHER

Hi Anna,

My name is Sandra Alsina Prats. I’m 16 years old. I live in Torroella de Fluvià. Right now, I’m studying Social Batxillerat because in the future I would like to study economics. In my free time, I like Meeting with my friends, reading, watching TV...

I know a little bit French but I’m good at English. I haven’t got any English Certificates yet but I’m interested in First Certificate. I would like to take this exam because if I go to the University I will need it. So, my intention is to take this examination as soon as I finish Batxillerat.

BYE BYE ESO!

I think that my best post in 4th ESO is "BERLÍN'14" because it's the longest post and when I wrote it I remembered my trip to Berlín and my great experience there. I explained what I did in Berlín, what I saw, my feelings when I saw The Holocoust, the concentration and extermination camp... As well I choose this post because I like to wrote it.




The second part in this post is choose the best blog in my classroom. There are a really good blogs but for me, the best blog is the Míriam's blog named "Don't count the days, make the days count". She speaks english very well and she writes twice much better. It's a really good blog for visit!

MY WORLD: HUMAN CHAIN

Last 11th September 2013 there was a human chain for the Catalan Independence from Spain. This is the National Day of Catalonia. In 2012, people made a demonstration in Barcelona. This human chain went from "Le Pertús"  North Catalonia until "Alcanar" South Catalonia. There were 1.600.000 protesters. In some places they must make two human chains, one opposite of another because there were a lot of people. The human chain started at 17:14 reminding the year 1714 where Catalonia lost its Independence and became part of Spain. After this, people sang "Els Segadors", the hymn of Catalonia. People wore a yellow T-shirt and because it is one of the colours of the Catalan flag. People wore "l'estelada" because this is the Catalan Independent flag. The only difference from the normal flag is a blue star above. 

I'm Catalan and Independent. I would like my country in a future to get the Independece. I will be very happy. I went to the humain chain. It was a really good experience and I ejoyed this afternoon a lot. I went with my parents and the people from Torroella de Fluvià. We were in the section 624. This was in Medinyà, near Girona.

MY WORLD: DESCRIBING A PICTURE

I have chosen this picture because I think it is very funny. In this picture we can see a guy next to a panda. They are sitting on the floor and eating a meal. In the foreground what we can see is the food. There is a packet on the left and an other packet on the right. Just in the middle we can see a hamburger and a drink. The guy is looking up while he is eating a hamburger. However, the panda is looking down and drinking. Behind them there is a blue wall.

It's a very funny picture they look happy while eating their meal. I think that the funniest thing is the panda. The place seems to be a very quite room where they feel relaxed. I think that this picture is an advertisement for Mc Donalds. This advertisement tells us that Mc Donalds food can be enjoyed by everyone.

The film is etched in a post-apocalyptic version of Chicago. As I loved it when I saw, I would like to talk a little bit about the film.
