Interesting countries

BRAZIL...!!
I'll talk about sports,language,music, food... of my favourite countries around the world.
Brazil's food; their diet includes meat,rice,beans,cheese,and eggs. Lunch is the most important meal and brazilian use a very common recipe. Her name's Sarapatel. It consists: the liver, heart, fresh blood of pig is mixed with tomatoes, peppers, and onions!!
The famous dance is the Samba. It's the national beat. I love to see samba dancing .
In brazil speak Portuguese, I only know in this language this: "tudau" and "ate logo" means, goodbye and see you soon.
The national sport is football.

I did my report on India when I was ESO and I learned lots of cool stuff on the Indian's country. I choose the country because there is a city with my name. Sara's city is in westhern part.
For me it's very interesting! Most Indians in the northern part of India do not eat meat at all and some don't even eat eggs!! They are brahamns.
Indians in the southern parts of India do eat meat but different families don't eat certain kinds according to the kind of religion.
The traditional marriage in India is when the parents of the bride chose a man to be her husband. New Years also is one of the biggest holidays in India.
Is when the native Indians clean out their house's to invite their god to enter and cleanse them of all sins they have done during the year. The children in India wear uniforms and the kidnappers know if is a kid in the school or if it is just a normal kid.
Indian flag. It represents the union of the 16 states the middle of the flag is chakra

Opinion essay: The influence of Psychologists on our society


Every time more people go more often to psychologists. They are people who try to help people that have problems.
Psychologists have a lot of influence on people because we can find them everywhere like hospitals, schools, in the business companies and police.

Firstly they can solve our problems,they are well considered by the society because they help people and can be the answer to our psychological necessities.
The image of the psychology has changed, In the past, meant you were a big problem like to be crazy, they were not very well considered.

On the other hand I think go to the psychologist to know more about myself.

In conclusion, It's true,the psychology influences our society. I think that we have psychology dependence.It's a good way to meet and live better!

Teenage Pregnancy



My sister had a baby at the end of last year. She is eighteen years old. Life may be problematic for a teenage mother and her child. One consequence of teenage pregnancy is to drop out of high school. When education is interrupted, a teenage mother has difficulty to find and keep a job. My sister dependent on my family and on public assistance. The last week I read that a child born to a teenage mother had 50 percent more likely to repeat a course in school and drop out before finishing high school. I don't want this future for my niece!
About 4 in 10 teenage girls become pregnant at least once before age 20 a lot of developed countries it's very surprising! I have been thinking about what it means to raise a child who has no father. I am terrified. I suffer a lot about this topic.
I couldn't imagine not having a dad. We don't know where is the father but life continous, and the most important is to give a lot of love!

News: Disappearing languages



UNESCO means United Nations Educational, Scientific and Cultural Organization
This institution confirms that more than two thousand languages of the world's six thousand languages are in danger of extinction.
About five hundred are spoken by less than thousand persons. Every time that a language die, the UNESCO says the world loses valuable cultural heritage. UNESCO says government action is important if the world want to preserve its linguistic diversity. One thing needed is that people must be proud to speak their language to ensure it survives. For example in 2008, Alaska's last native speaker of Eyak died, he and her language.
The eyaks wanted to to save her people's heritage but it's late. And also only three people speak ma tike, an Australian Aboriginal language.

UNESCO says the phenomenon of dying languages appears in different regions and diverse economic conditions.

Should human rights be enforced by law or optional?

Human rights are essential for life because it talks about the freedom and respect between humans. Everybody has human rights, these are universal, unfortunately not comply in all places. Abscence of human rights creates injustice. There are a lot of things in the world that are unfair, for example murder, torture, abuse...
Human rights should be enforced by law. We can not tolerate these terrible actions.
On the other hand I believe we can not trust people to do this actions. We need the state of punishment, we ensure compliance!

Finally the society prefers welfare own that the needs that others! Unfortunately, It's reality!!

In conclusion I belive this way we can make the world a better place!
