the mistery of Mary Celeste


The captain's wife was nine months pregnant and started having contractions. Quickly, the other crew took her to an empty room. Few hours after the baby was stillborn and the mother passed away. The captain went mad and killed all the crew and launched the bodies overboard so nobody knew what had happened. Later, the captain put some ammunition in a lifeboat and escaped. He was rowing for two weeks without knowing what direction to take. Some sharks smashed the lifeboat and ate him.

runaway children


I feel sorry for the people who run away. I have never run aay, but I think that the people who make it have a good reason. I have a friend who ran away from home once but she returned. She ran away because she had many promblems with her parents. She's told me that it is an horrible experience but now she is ina good situation and she hasn't problems with her parents. I hope that children don't run away from their houses because in the street there are many dangers.

REFRECTING ON OUR PRESENTATION:

1. When I was starting the presentation I felt a bit nervious because I have not done many presentations. While I was takling to my fellow students I felt better, but I wasn't quiet. Finally, when I finished, I felt better and restful.

2. Our presentation was quite well. I believe that we organized very well but our Pronunciation wasn't very good. We worked as a team. I am proud of the result, but I think we could have been better.

3. -The other grous had a better pronuntation and they didn't raed much. Also they expressed best in front of colleagues.

-Our presentation was more organized. Our introduction was more explicit and our historical background was more extensive.

4. I think that in the next presentation we can apply a power point presentation or a summary with the most important things. We'll try to improve our pronuntiation and espresion.

5. I think that we deserve a six, because we have done well but could be improved.

First of all, I chose this picture because I like take photos of the sky and I think that this picture is very moving. It's a unusual and natural photo. The most striking is the black floor contrasting with the sky. I really like it! I would like to see it! I hope you enjoy it!
