Sports (Soccer).

Actually, most of the people of the world practice some sport. The sports are considerate a way to lose weight, relaxing, and even a profession. Each country has a particular sport that our people practice, but I think that most famous is soccer. A way to see this, It is when you look the participation of the people in the recent World Cup, Brasil 2014.

When I talk about soccer, I think a lot of things. This sport is my favorite because when I was a little girl, I played it. The Sub 17 World Cup was so amazing and I think that girls played like never before. I imagine that stay in their position is so stressful, but nevertheless it is a better experience. Loos the stadium full of people saying positive things is incredible. Those situations are the ones that motivated to continue practicing this sport.

Other important event about soccer players is the World Cup, Brasil 2014. There is most important affair in this year for the soccer. The people saw the best players from different countries. In addition, they saw our experience, abilities and techniques in the match. Each one demonstrated the people why we were selected as the best. For example, the important game made by National Selection.

On the other hand, the players are considerate an important piece of the team. Most of the women watched the games to see the players. This situation turns in a Trent. After the end of this event, girls of all ages selected their favorite player. They consider things like physical aspect, color skin, nationality, age and hair. Some of the players now are more famous than before the World Cup, and the amount of their followers increased.

Finally, the importance of the sports in the world is amazing. The people need to know more about the sports, specially the one that is practiced in your country. If the people will consider the sports as a culture, the world would be healthier and the illnesses like diabetes, obesity and others would be disappear and the world would be better.

Life before and after the Internet...

This one is a video related to the topic of the essay number two. Shows clearly the situations of the daily life that have changed with the arrival of the Internet and the technology.

It is brief, and clarifies in since you are the things nowadays. Of this form we can make conscience and understand that the dependence to this is not healthy for the world; since to it facilitates the life to us in many aspects, also it damages completely.




The Life: Before and Now


Some decades ago, the world in which we were living was very different compared with the current one. The culture, the way of thinking, the tastes, the traditions, the own customs of the Costa Ricans, have suffered an important change. Even the persons, who were a part of the daily lives of those times, tell to the current generations the differences between the ways of life of the current youth, with that of the youth of those years.


If we talk about the culture of before, we can mention that the persons were much more respectful. The way of dressing, was less extravagant and simpler; on the other hand, now, that the young persons adapt ways of dressing of other cultures, instead of preserving the own gown of our country. The women for example, no longer use clothes discovered only in the warm places of the country, but also in the cold places. The simple woman of before, now does not exist, she transformed in a woman without identity; without culture.

The way of thinking of the persons now is more developed. For example, before the family parents taught their children that the home had to be respected; now the homes are the center of all kinds of activities, and the worse thing, these activities are not normal in a family. Before, the young persons wanted to have 18 years to go out maximum to the cinema; now, at least having the age, the boys and girls enter to any bar, buy liquor or drugs. In these times, the youth is very marked by the drug addiction and the delinquency.

In addition, another important factor, that influences this change, is the technology. With the years, this aspect has changed radically the way of life of the Costa Ricans. Before, the persons were living happily, relaxed and without so many problems because of its use. The familiar union, in those times, was the most important thing for the society now, 1 of every 10 families forget what is to share together. This is one of the problems that generate the technological invasion in our lives.


After this, we realize that nowadays the Costa Ricans are very different from some years ago. The necessity to have identity, culture and customs, invades us. With such a pretty country, that it is Costa Rica, we should estimate our legacy, genetics and we come wherefrom. Many countries, they do not possess everything that we have. It is important to value and to estimate what the world has given us.

Risks and Achievements!

Every person must possess goals and plans to future, already be short-term or long-term. The risks can be great, but always they are a part of any decision that takes. In cause the tests they are very easy to exceed, but different many, imply big efforts.

Every day, in the social media, we see as many persons they obtain important achievements in his life, and it uses as example all the human beings. Sometimes, when you present us difficult days, we believe that the easiest thing is to leave everything of side and to give up itself; on the contrary, in these cases the better thing is to seek for the correct solution and to confront the situation.

In this unit we had the opportunity to read several articles which are related to this topic, and that allowed us to learn new vocabulary related to these daily situations. In addition, in the grammatical part, we learned the structure of the sentences in Real Conditional, Present Unreal Conditional and Past Unreal Conditional.



Making a Living.

That we work we know the difficult thing that proves to support the calmness and especially to avoid situations of stress. The majority of the works incorporate activities that in a certain moment it generates alterations in our attitude, but for own experience, the works related to financial and countable topics, much more.

In this unit, it teaches vocabulary related to the work to us; diverse situations that they present in the labor daily life. In addition, the article that shows us on the daily grind that many persons and the future consequences live, makes us think over and see what we are doing badly, from early ages.

On the other hand, the grammatical part indicates the rules that are used with future continuous and future perfect; in addition of future forms: will and be going to. This is in use very frequently when one speaks about future goals, activities that we want to realize in the future during a specific period of time.



Obesity...


The beginning of the obesity as a health problematic increased the interest of the people in all world. This is because of many of the diseases that it generates; for example, high pressure, cardiovascular and hearth diseases. All those things could be controlled with the people; only needs more information and more control with the food habits that they practice. To combat this epidemic it’s necessary to change their lifestyle and to know more about the possible solutions that many organizations give to the people.

It´s necessary to know the real definition of obesity. The obesity is a disease generated by a big accumulation of fat in the body, and can make several damages in the health. It can be influenced by internal or external facts; for example, the genetic of the person or in the other hand the own culture of the person. Over the years, the people forgot the importance of the good eating habits. The World Organizations of Health reported millions of persons with overweight and so many with obesity. These amount excluding all of the children that suffer from it too.

Actually, the way to the people eat has changed radically, leaving the healthy food and starting consume fast food. Now, the people prefer buying food in the restaurants than cooking in their house. Obviously, the food that they sell in the majority of the restaurants is bad. In addition, people don´t do exercise because they prefer a sedentary lifestyle. Also, working in house, in offices or not working, promote this illness. Finally, the people that don´t eat healthy food; for example, fruits, water, vegetables and others; the possibility to be obese is higher.
   
The people always think about the problem but a little few of those persons really do something to take care of themselves; for example, go to the doctor to check if everything is okay, try to create good eating habits, not just stop to eat, is more like the necessary amount to eat and stop the fast food restaurants, and the most important even when you are not fat, do exercises that always helps. Sometimes the people have a sedentary lifestyle because they work, but they can try to do simple things, like drink water, take little walks, use the ladders, etc. Sometimes is about the attitude and loving yourself.


After seeing the reasons that promote the obesity and the possible solutions to this problem, I think that it is important that the people known more about this disease. To create awareness in the people that suffer this illness, it will be important for the world and especially for the future generations, because so many children are suffering. It´s not fair, that so many people are killing themselves for not make a change. It´s time to change our mentality.
