urban legends,my opinion about this lesson is too short because  i dont believe in legends the majority of these lessons are false,if we think most of them are about,death people or paranormal things just to try we get afaraid,and never we find some one who had participated in this jajajaja,these are for babiesss,but we have and need to respect it,,,,,,, miguelina
the baseballl,this is one of the most important game here in the dominican republic,up to day this is  the best way to youngs guys stay out drugs or deliquency,but like always gouverment do nothing to increase sports in dominican R,i think they dont want or need heathful mind or teenegers because they are just intesred in having more and more money but if people get intelligent,study and are not in drugs or other mistake,could start to thinking better and stop the corruptions they are having with our country,sorry no our their,no dont have nothing....... miguelina
the oldest old,this is a beautyful and a sad article because we dont understand yet how people can forget about ancient people and can trying they bad as a animal or worse,in others counties old people are trying as a tresure here in dominican republic they are trying like garbages as soon as our familiars get old we forget about them,rich take them into ancients care,and poor just leave them in stranges  streets or city with no pain,,,,,,,is hard but is our reality,,,,,,,,, miguelina
the addictions ,they are some differents addictions includings internet,bb,twitters,alcohol,etc but this is not the problem,the problem is that most of human race is having an addictions whith out  know it,,,,,,,, my opinion of addiction is that it is something we cant stop doing even know that is wrong,and my question is ,how can something feels so good if we know that is wrong?    miguelina matias

My opinion about internet addiction.

Well, it is hard to recognize when you are getting addicted  to something not only about internet,  addicted never accept an addiction as a big problem.

I think as we identify that we can’t stop doing something that before was just a hobby and now turn into a habit, we have immediately look for help.

i








Sign  and  symptoms of internet addiction.

These vary from person to person. For example there are not set hours per day or number of messages sent that indicate internet addiction.

General warning signs that your internet use may have become a problem.

Losing track of time online.
Having trouble completing tasks.
Isolation from family and friends.
Feeling guilty or defensive about your internet use
Physical symptoms
Dry eyes
Sleep disturbances









internet addiction investigation


How do people become addicted to the internet?

Many people turn to internet in order to mange unpleasant feelings such as stress, loneliness, depression and anxiety. Looking for a way  to escape of problems. The internet can be an easily accessible outlet. It is important to remember that there are healthier and more effective ways to keep difficult feelings in check.

You are a greater risk of internet addiction if:
·      You suffer from anxiety.
·      You are depressed.
·      You have any other addiction.
·      You are an unhappy teenager.

Hey , Atilano, at this time , i am sending to you some remarks  about
the last lesson from  English book .
 
DID THE CHINESE DISCOVER AMERICA

   Well, infact , it talks about hints that says
Christopher Columbus was not the first explorer to
come to new world .

Leif  Ericson was the person that crossed the
Atlantic and visited North America in the seventh
century .

   A historian Gavin Menzies , has theorized that the Chinese
made the journey too. According to him, the chinese explored
Australia 350 years before and arrived on American shores
71 years before Christother Columbus did .

  Well , from my point of view . I think that those informations are
not too clear to believe. I say this ,because i did not knowledges
about it , and even the historians in college do not say, or teach
students .
 
  How strange .  that sounds weard .
 
what do you think about it .

Hello, Mr Pimentel . This is a summary of  two missing lessons.

THE UPS AND DOWN OF YO - YOS

   Well, no body knows for sure when or where YO -YOS
originated , but the best guess is China about 3000  years ago.

   But, the fisrt historical record of YO - YOS is however from
Greece around 500 BC. YO -YOS next appeared in India around
1765. Within a few decades, it really appeared in Western Europe.

   In Paris in the 1790 , this toy was called  JOU -JOU, and one
theory is that the name YO YO  comes from this term . In instance,
in England it was a symbol of  wealth . In fact , it was made of crystal  ,
jade , or ivory and were decorated with silver, gold and precious stones.


   At last ,a filipino  named Pedro Flores started building this precious
plaything , with wood and those were the first that in which string were not tied to
the axle.

yo-yo


Yo-yo


The yo-yo in its simplest form is an object consisting of an axle connected to two disks, and a length of twine (usually called a string) looped around the axle, similar to a slender spool. It is played by holding the free end of the string (usually by inserting one finger in a slip knot) allowing gravity or the force of a throw to spin the yo-yo and unwind the string (similar to how a pullstring works), then allowing the yo-yo's spin to wind itself back to one's hand; Often called "yo-yoing". First made popular in the 1920s, yo-yoing remains a popular pastime of many generations and cultures. The newest generation and culture of yo-yo participants often refer to the act of yo-yoing as "flinging".
In the simplest play, the string is intended to be wound on the spool by hand; The yo-yo is thrown downwards, hits the end of the string, then winds up the string toward the hand, and finally the yo-yo is grabbed, ready to be thrown again. Many other tricks exist, most based on the basic sleeper trick.[1] One of the most famous tricks on the yo-yo is "walk the dog". This is done by throwing a strong sleeper and allowing the yo-yo to roll across the floor, before tugging it back to the hand. English historical names for the yo-yo include bandalore (from French) and quiz. French historical terms include bandalore, incroyable, de Coblenz, emigrette, and joujou de Normandie (joujou meaning little toy).[2]

Writing and discussion questions

I am going to speak  about  types of movies, because in my french class we are watching some movies and disscuss about it.

when we were choosing a movie almost everybody prefer comics, so I asked to some one and they prefer those movies because are funny, other says that are stupid but at the end we chose the comic.


we think is funiest to talk about it, not scary or action movie. as I investigate in my class every movie has one public.

I love comics because I enjoy this kind of movie but sometimes I watch action movies because my husband likes and on weekends we use to watch tv and share for us is fantastic because we disscus the movie.

Urban legends

Since the dawn of the language have told stories.
All cultures have collections of tale handed dawn from generation to geration that are collectively known as folklore.

The name Urban legends which was invented by folklorist Ricard Dowson in the 1960s, but in some ways the term Urban legends take place in big cities.

A common feature of Urban legends is that they are always alleged tobe true.
As a mother of fact, most Urban legends are not true however, just because Urban legends is false does not mean it is a total lie. Written by Yasiri Hiciano.

Mastering the law of gravity


     Infact, this reading talks about one of the worlds top action choreographer 
named  ´´ Yuen Wo Ping´´ . He is really a veteran of more than fifty movies, that 
helped catapult action stars , such as   Jackie Chan , Sammo Hang , and 
Jet Li .

     He was born in 1945 in Guangzhan ,China . His family was long involved in Beijing
opera performances . His father , Yen Siu Tin , was an actor and  a martial arts instructor.
And four of his brothers have had carrers in the movie industry in Asia .

     The first movie Yuen directed was the well regarded  ´´snake  ´´ in Eagle s shadow 1978.
starring the now leyendary star  ´´ Jacki Chan  ´´ .

     His dazzling aerial choreography called  ´´ wire work  ´´   , that has brought him worldwide 
renown .  Yuen ,  also admired for the quality  of the swordsmanship in his films. His 
style of  ´´ sword fighting ´´ is based in part on the Japanese martial art Kendo .

     From my point of view ,  Yuen  is really  one of  the first person who bigan to introduce 
swords fights in movies . And also created the aerial choreography , called 
wirework . It gives the ilusion that actors can actually fly .

     Most of the people think , that  those tricks  are all  made by computers   , but is not like this ,
because  according to reading , in the only part that computer takes place is to conceal  the wires they use 
to fly .

 Bonao , Republica Dominicana                                                                                                                          26 de Marzo del 2012


Distinguido profesor,  Atilano Pimentel Reyes


     La presente es para saludarle, y a la ves expresarle mi admiración
y respeto que usted se merece.


     Por ser usted una persona dedicada a lo que hace , y que le impregna
amor y pasión a la enseñanza de la lengua Inglesa , que me consta de gran
manera revelar las tantas cualidades que lo alverga , ya que soy estudiante
suyo , y lo he sido desde mucho tiempo.



     A usted  , le he visto . De buen humor , de mal humor y también llorar ,
ofender y ser ofendido, criticar y también  ser criticado, orientar a sus estudiantes
con el fín de que sean mejores .



     Permitame explicarle la situación . Con relación al semestre  2011 - 2 , me
ofrecieron dos asignaturas ,  IDI - 224 , Inglés avanzado 1 .  Pero , solo pude
registrar  en la hoja de selección  una sola , porque la misma chocaba con
IDI - 228 , Composición Inglesa . Quedandome  así  con Inglés avanzado 1
en el semestre pasado , y para  aprovechar  mäs el tiempo y poder agilizar mi carrera ,
me ví  forzado de tomarla como oyente ,cosa que no me gusta ..


     Por consiguiente , a causa de todo estos inconvenientes, mi índice descenderá ,
me atrasaré en terminar la carrera , e incluso en el programa de intercambio cultural
para trabajar  cuatro meses en los Estados Unidos, se irá  a pique  , por la razón de
que ellos exigen estar vigente en la Universidad  , sin interrumpir ni siquiera un semestre .



     Le presento mi  sentida disculpa, por no haber respondidode la mejor manera posible
el semestre pasado . Reconozco que falté repetida veces los Sábados  , porque no me daban el
permiso , ya que en  la farmacia donde laboro hacían falta varios  empleados .



     Usted  mas que nadie conoce mi capacidada y entendimiento de dicha lengua , el empeño
que le he mostrado hasta ahora . Espero que cuente en algo.  Así , que  le pido  de favor
publicarme una calificacion que usted considere yo meresca .


     Sin mas , se despide un joven que no acostumbra pedir , rogar ,  ni mucho menos
mendigar calificación , porque  no soy estudiante de ese nivel . Pero en esta circunstancia en
en que me encuentro que ya he pagado el costo para el viaje del  programa . En realidad temo que me
nieguen la visa  , por aparecer retirado del semestre anterior . Por favor , reconcidere .  Y se lo
agradeceré  por siempre .


                                                                  SINCERAMENTE . José Luis Lora

Did the Chinese Discover America?

Well I`m going to write a little bit about UNITE 9 [nine]

DID THE CHINESE DISCOVER AMERICA????

*There have long been suggestions that Columbus was not the first explorer to come to the new World from the Old.

*There are claims that the Phoenicians [were trading people who lived in North Africa and elsewhere around the mediterranean Sea] The Irish [Irlandes] And the Polynesians [Polinesio inhabited Hawaii and other Pacific Islands] and others made the journey before 1492.
According to Gavin Menzies the Chinese made the trip too exploring Australia 350 years before.

questions

do you ever buy or refuse to buy products because of their names ?
Explain why product names do or do not influence you.

yes I do, because if the company is not reconize I dont have guarantee about the product so I cant buy something that I feel uncomfortable. the name is the presentation of the products.

Here are some names of actual automobiles, past and present. wich of these names do you think will attract the most buyers? why?

I think mustang because it faster than others,with 300 horses of power and is very expensive and masculine. it has singular characteristics and is made for big amount.


your company has developed a new product. the CEO has asked you to research naming companies (use the key words "products naming companies"). Write a brief description of two or three of these companies, and recommend at least one of them.

Well I consider ebay, because you can buy end sell products and is recognized around the world.is great to buy and sell because you can get new things a good price.

In fact, this firt reading is named  J.BALL.  And it  really means, Japonese Baseball.
Then , it starts talking about the great reach and acceptation from people all over the world.

At the begining , in Japan  was called  TOWN BALL ,  but in the early ninteenth
century, it started to develop in the north eastern United States.
Some thing important was the making up, of the first rule book , by´´ MR. Henry
Chadwick´´  that  from this fact helped to  spread the popularity of this game in civil war , 1861 -1865 .

As well as , the creation of standardizing field dimensions in use  today in 1840 by´´ Alexander
Cart wright´´ .
As all sports have existed many outstanding

URBAN LEGENDS

This second reading is named  URBAN LEGENDS  . That in reality, they are simply contemporary examples of folklore.
As a matter of fact , the urban legends were invented by´´ folklorist Richard Dowson´´
setting in a rural place.
The goal of the story writer is to near the legend into a real life, eventhough
it is untrue.  Thanks to tecnology , now a day we could know if a legend is true or not , due to,
they use a system of colored circles to classify them .

A red circle means a story has been proved false .
A blue one means it is univerifiable and a green one
means that it is true.

Within the reading , appear many stories , but the only one
i would like to tell you  ,   the most famous coutionary urban
legend story  .  ´´THE ORGAN THIEVES´´

The story takes place around at 7:30pm . In the village of OHI . While he was going to a business
convention to  ´´LAS VEGAS ´´
One evening , he felt tired and get into a CASINO, he met a beautiful and friendly woman .
They had a couple of drinks in the hotel  bar . In that accurate moment he started to feel funny .
That means she puts drugs in his drinks or something like that .

He was excited and very attracted by her. When she suddenly  invited him to his room .  He blacked out and came to . He was in a bahttub full of ice.

He read the sign , it used to say  : DIAL 911 . He did it and inmediately  get into the ambulance.
And , for me . I think that was the worst notice that someone could ever receive . As soon as he wakes  up and looks  around  someone is doing a surgery to him ,without  being ill  ¨¨ONE OF YOUR KIDNEY HAS ALREADY BEEN TAKEN OUT ¨¨   .      WAA HOOO.........


¨¨HOW WOULD YOU HAVE BEEN FELT IN THAT GRUESOME  MOMENT ¨
