For and against essay

                                    
Travelling by plane

Did you know that planes are one of the most used and safe means of transport? Now it is possible to fly from one place to another. We can also fly to space. Is it better to travel by plane?

Although planes there are some disadvantages to travelling by plane, some of the advantages are that it is faster than travelling by car or boat, it is safer, you have someone who attends you the hole jouney, there is a bathroom and it is biggen than a car so you can walk around.

However; there are many disadvantages to travelling by plane. It is more expensive, you can feel trapped, your ears can hurt and although it is safer, if the plane falls down you may die

To sum up travelling by plane has its advantages and disadvantages. But we believe it is better than travelling by car or boat as there are less accidents, and the journey is shorter.

Literary Essay


In the class of L/L Writing we were asked to write a literary essay in a group of two, explaining the themes, simbolysm, etc, of the book: The strange case of Dr. Jekyll and Mr. Hyde. here is my literary essay:

                       The Strage Case of Dr. Jekyll and Mr. Hyde


"The Strange Case of Dr. Jekyll and Mr. Hyde", written by Robert Louis Stevenson is about a doctor called Henry Jekyll that is interested in double personality, so he creates a potion with the objetive to separate them, and Mr. Hyde emerge, this one is hs dark side, who makes hm commit suicide . The essay will explain some themes, the duality of human nature, the importanca of reputation, and violence.

In conection to the duality of human nature Jekyll claims, "man is not truly one but truly two." this represents Jekyll thoughts, people had a bad and a good side, a devil and an angel. In this case, his good part is the dominant part. However, he has bad desires but he dos not fullfill them because he is a prestigious man of Victorian times. With the potion he separates his two sides in different people, emerge Hyde, troglyodite,  hairy, he takes Jekyll until he died.

A situation of the story that explain the important of reputation is when the narrator describes utterson 
"Mr. Utterson the lawyer was a man of rugged contenance that was never lighted by a smile, cold, scanty and embarrassed in discourse, backward in sentiment, lean, long, dusty, dresry and yet somehow lovable". This represents that in Victorian era reputation was very important, people like Utterson have good reputation and avoid gossipin when he is suspicious of Jekyll of being blackmailed and then of sheltering Hyde from the police, and he does not told anyone to preserv Jekyll`s reputation 

An example of violence is " well sir the two run into one another naturally enough at the corner, and then came the horrible part of the thing, from the man trampled calmly over the childs body and left her screaming on the ground" Most of the violence scenes Hyde is the guilty and the victims are innocent people, for example when hyde hurts the girl, or when he kills Mr. Carew. Hyde’s finals victims are both, himself and Jekyll in the moment in wich he commit suicide, so neither victims are innocent crearly Hyde is guilty of many crimes and Jekyll is guilty because he creates Hyde and let him free.

For a conclusion I can say that in Dr. Jekyll and Mr. Hyde, the author explains how a prestigious doctor can become in a horrible person. This book makes me realise the power of ambition, for example, this doctor is always interested in duality of human nature and his ambition is to separate the human soul, and because of that ambition he becomes in a horrible person

Having changed that, he never got to meet his friends, and those horribles things never took place. This strange illness in his head was called the butterfly effect, and it was hereditary.

review of the buterfly effect


The butterfly effect, written and directed by Eric Bress and J.Mackye Gruber is an amusing science fiction thriller that takes place in the United States. The film tells the story of a man whose name is Evan Trevor who suffers from an odd illness called Butterfly effect.

When Evan was a child, he was depressed and he had a hard life until the momento he turns 20 years old and he discovers that he has the ability to travel back to his own past. In the past, he changes things with the aim of changing his friends traumas during their childhood but there are awful consequences for all of them.

The film is rather confusing, but it is moving. It has an unexpected ending. The script is exciting because you never know what is going to happen next.
I highly recommend it because It is a different story that connects this film, the evil of the world and science fiction.

cuento quiroguiano

Más rutas más muertes
 Estábamos caminando mi amiga Sol y yo por la ruta 1, planeamos ir de mochileras a recorrer America central, pero de pronto se escucho un llanto desde muy lejos. Sol no quería ir pero le insistí. Era un hombre sentado en el medio de la ruta vestido de payaso, sus ojos eran enormes, eran tan oscuros que no se le notaba la pupila, se le notaban los huesos de las manos, tenia sangre en la boca y un cuchillo ensangrentado en la mano. Tenia un cadáver junto a el, era un hombre de mas o menos 17 años, había un agujero enorme en su estomago cubierto de sangre, estaba todo cortado y tenia los ojos huecos.
 Nos quedamos mudas, y de pronto nos vio, corrimos pero Sol se tropezó, y la atrapo, agarre la botella de vino que habíamos tomado la noche anterior y rápidamente se la partí en la cabeza. Se desmayo sobre el estomago del cadáver y empezaron a salir bichos asquerosos de su estomago. 
Corrimos lo mas rápido que pudimos y logramos escapar. Cuando ya era de noche, armamos la carpa escondida en algunos arbustos que había al lado de la ruta e intentamos dormir, pero el mismo llanto se escuchó, me desperté y Sol ya no estaba.
 Salí de la carpa y grite su nombre una y otra vez pero nadie contestaba, agarre la linterna y cuando la prendí vi que estaba nuestra pulsera en el suelo y tenia una mancha de sangre, me fije si era mi pulsera la que se había caído, pero mía no era. Junte todas nuestras cosas y empece a buscarla.
 Amaneció y me pareció ver un rastro de sangre en el piso, lo seguí pero en un momento se corto mire para arriba y era un letrero que decía que faltaban 10 km para la ruta 2.
 Estoy segura que era una señal de Sol diciendo que se dirigian allí, decidí ir para allá, era mi mejor amiga y arriesgue mi vida por ella. Luego de mas o menos 7 km escuche el llanto y cada vez que me acercaba a la ruta 2 lo escuchaba mas fuerte. Llegue al letrero de la ruta 2 y estaba el mismo payaso con dos cadáveres una era sol.
 Entonces comprendí RUTA 1 un cadáver RUTA 2, 2 cadáveres, RUTA 3... YO y dos mas, me miro con la misma mirada de antes era escalofriante, de un psicópata. Me agarro y me ato a un árbol cerca de Sol, su cuerpo estaba pálido, y tenia los ojos abiertos, pero estaba muerta. El payaso me vio llorar y empezó a imitarme agarro su cuchillo y se corto una gota enorme en su mejilla. 
Empece a gritar desesperadamente y siguió imitando me hasta que en un momento paro. Me miro fijamente, serio y fue caminando hasta Sol, la miro a los ojos sonrió como si estuviera contento por su muerte, Me miro a mi "tienes los mismos ojos" dijo pasándome el cuchillo por debajo del ojo izquierdo y se fue caminando hacia Sol la arrastro hacia mi y la ato junto a mi. Nos mojo con alcohol y luego agarro un fósforo que tenia Sol en su mochila, lo soltó lentamente.
 Todo se empezó a prender fuego, mis piernas ardían, lo que el payaso no se dio cuenta era que la soga se empezó a quemar entonces yo la pude romper Lo empuje hacia el fuego, en el momento que el se ditrajo vigilando que nadie apareciera . Escuché su llanto corrí lo mas rápido que pude sin mirar hacia atrás. Pero mis piernas no daban mas, tuve que parar en un rio a mojarme y cuando mis pierna pararon de arderme, segui corriendo hasta que llegue aquí,  hasta que llego un policia dio el agua, y la quemadura calmo. ¿Que piensan hacer? "Nada" dijo el oficial Gomez Y se marcho. Pero luego entro vestido de payaso entonces comprendí tenia la misma marca en la mejilla, tenia los mismos ojos y tenia una quemadura en su espalda. Como no me di cuenta el oficial era el.
