Space Debris
Nowadays, there is a lot of trash in the space. This trash is called ¨space debris¨ or ¨space junk.¨ They all travel at speeds up to 17,500 mph, fast enough for a relatively small piece of orbital debris to damage a satelite.
The researchers just have 2 misions: know everything about the space and earn money. Doing this two things they are causing pollution and damage in the space. When a small piece of debris collides with a space station of, for example, the NASA, the pieces of the station that were broken are going to enter in our orbit and probably fall into the sea, but what happened if it falls in a big city such us New York?
On the other hand, researchers help us a lot predicting when is going to collide debris on Earth and even prevent it, so we can say that they produces damages but they repared it too.
In the end, researchers are helping us to know the world we are living in, but we, the same as them, have to prevent risk of pollution and space debris because if we do not stop this, one day a big rock or a massive pollution will destroy our earth and we do not want this, or yes..?
Outline: Studies
I. I am going to write about the studies that a person need to do for being a teacher.
II. Nursery school
a. From 2 years to 5
b. Start understanding the environment
c. Become knowing the numbers and colours
III. Primary school
a. From 5 years to 11
b. Start learning maths, language, writting...
IV. Secondary school
a. From 11 years to 15
b. Start deciding what you want to be in the future.
V. A levels
a. From 15 years to 17
b. Can choose art subjects, science subjects or language subjects, depending on what you are going to study in the future
VI. University
a. From age 17 until you finish your degree
b. You are specializing on what you want to work
c. It could be the hardest period of your studies
VII. When you have finished all this periodes it means that you are ready to be a teacher, you have to spend a lot of time of your life, but if you like that, it could be wonderful to know that you did what you really wanted.

How is the universe?
A well-known scientist (some say it was Bertrand Russell) once gave a public lecture on astronomy. He described how the earth orbits around the sun and how the sun, in turn, orbits around the center of a vast collection of starts called our galaxy. At the end of the lecture, a little old lady at the back of the room got up and said; ¨What you have told us is rubbish. The world is really a flat plate supported on the back of a giant tortoise.¨ The scientist gave a superior smile before replying, ¨What is the tortoise standing on?¨ ¨You are very clever, young man, very clever,¨ said the old lady. ¨But it is turtles all the way down!¨
Most people would find the picture of our universe as an infinite tower of tortoises rather ridiculous, but why do we think we know better? What do we know about the universe, and how do we know it? Where did the universe come from, and where is it going? Did the universe have a beginning, and if so, what hapenned before then? What is the nature of time? Will it ever come to an end? Recent breakthroughts in physics, made possible in part by fantastic new technologies, suggest answers to some of these longstanding questions. Someday these answers may seem as obvious to us as the earth orbiting the sun- or perhaps as ridiculous as a tower of tortoises. Only time (whatever that may be) will tell.

Conclusion of ¨The Hazards Of Moviegoing¨
To sum up, it is much better to stay at home, you do not have to deal with the problems that society and bad-mannered people involve. And do not forget about the amount of money that you will save. By the end of the year you will be able to buy the cinema itself so nobody is going to disturb you.
Incurable diseases
Incurable diseases do not exist, that is my point of view. People who think that there are diseases that cannot be cured are wrong, but the medias make us believe that there are many of them imposible of curing. It is because the research centers do not want to show to the public the cure because of its expensive costs.For example:
¨Natural medicine has been around for thousands of years with great success. The likes of Traditional Chinese Medicine, (TCM), from China and Ayurvedic Medicine from India are two such long-standing examples. Under these healing systems the body is quite capable of healing itself. In fact, that is exactly what is encouraged most often. Radical intervention is the exception and only used as a last resort. Under this holistic model a thorough diagnosis of the cause of the disease is gathered and an appropriate attempt to remove the imbalance is procured. Disease can only be healed holistically by removing the cause, (physical, emotional, or energetic), and assisting the body back into balance.¨

Bonfire Night Origin
The Story of Guy Fawkes
Bonfire Night (also known as Guy Fawkes Night) originates from the Gunpowder Plot of 1605, a failed conspiracy by a group of provincial English Catholics to assassinate the Protestant King James I of England and replace him with a Catholic head of state.
Guy fawkes was born on April 13th, 1570 in Yorkshire. His parents were called Edward and Edith. When he was 6 years old he went to the Free School of St. Peter´s.
In 1593, he joined the Spanish Army. Fawkes was described as a man of ¨excellent god natural parts, very resolute and universally learned.¨ Others noted his religious devotion and his punctual attendance at religious ceremonies. After the army, he returned to England.
In March 1605, the conspirators hired a cellar beneath Parliament. They filled the cellar with barrels of gunpowder. Fawkes was in charge of the gunpowder. Eight months later, on the night of November 4th, the cellars of Parliament were searched after the authorities recieved an anonymous letter. They found Fawkes with matches and arrested him.
Early on November 5th, 1605, Fawked was questioned. One of his questioners was James I. Fawkers said that he wanted to blow a Scotsman back to Scotland. On November 6th, James I gave the permission for the torture of Fawkes to progress from the ¨gentler tortures¨ to the ¨worst.¨ The next day, Fawkes broke his silence. He confessed that five men were involved in the plot. On November 8th, he told them the plan, and on November 9th, he named the others plotters.
On Friday 31st January 1606, Fawkes was executed for treason.
Little is known about the earliest celebration. Nowadays, Fawkes´ effigy is traditionally burned on a bonfire, commonly accompanied by a firework display.

A beautiful day
¨There is not a cloud today
Just a sky of blue
As the sun shines bright
It feels so new
As you walk down the street
You can see smiles from all around
It looks like everyone
Came to town
To enjoy the summer´s day
And let time stand still
For a little while
Just until¨
