SUMMER!

At last I’ve decided what I’m going to do when I finish the course in the high school. As soon as I’ve finished my last exam, I will meet my friends outside the school and I will go to Figueres or Ampuria. That same night I’m going to go to some disco with all my friends and I will desconect of all the exams' problems. When I will finish the exams, summer starts, I think that summer is the best time for all the people, because we haven't to go to school and we have free time all days. On summer we can go to the beach or to the swimming pool, we meet everyday with our friends, we go shopping on the big cities like Girona and Barcelona because we will have a lot of free time for do all the things that we couldn’t do when we have school. On July, I’m going to England for four weeks, because I will need to desconect for all my typical life. When I’m going to return, here will be the village partys, like barrakas or the beach discos, I’m going to go to all of these! I think that the summer is very short, I never want summer to finish. When we return to our typical life we only want to go back on time and return to summer!

'Huge' water resource exists under Africa

Scientists say the notoriously dry continent of Africa is sitting on a vast reservoir of groundwater.

Across Africa more than 300 million people are said not to have access to safe drinking water. The researchers say their new maps indicate that many countries currently designated as reserves. They suggest that widespread drilling of large boreholes might not work. Appropriately sited and devolped boreholes for low yielding rural water supply and hand pumps are likely to be successful.

This research, which the British Government has funded, could have a profound effect on some os the world's poorest people, helping them become less vulnerable to drought and to adapt to the impact of climate change.

This is an important discovery. Because it could have a profound effecr on some of the world's poorest people, helping them become less vulnerable to drought and to adapt to the impacte of climate change. This discovery help many countries to live in better conditions, have drinking water, which can grow food resources and thus decrease mortality significantly.

Discribing of a place

EASTBOURNE

I chose Eastbourne because is a really beautiful village next to Britghon, I stay there last summer and I enjoy a lot there. I want to talk about a place that I been there and I think that Eastbourne are the most interesting site I have stayed. This place is important for me because there I met a lot of interesting people and I spent a very good time, I advise for all the people to go there.

It's an active village, very complitly clean and quiet. It hasn't got a lot of traffic because the most part of the population use pubic buses and the train, so the traffic aren't very loud or congested. The buses and the trains are rather punctual and fast, you hardly ever arrive late to sites.

Eastbourne has good connections with Brighton, Hastings and Bexhill, because all of this citys and villages are adjoining with the train. The buildings of Eastbourne aren't pretty old, but they are a little shabby because it's a fairly active villge. The village aren't old but it isn't very modern of futuristic, in my point of view it's a typical english small town. But like all the villages has some modern builds, like the casino on the Pier, of the Shopping Center. It's a touristic site,

with a lot of souvenirs shops, lots of clothes shops, fast food restaurants like Mc Donalds, KFC... The pavement is slightly dirty, for the tourists. The people are extremely simpathetic with all the tourists, very polite and nice. But sometimes the young people or teenagers don't like tourists and sometimes make face to them and a little impolite. The shops are much less expensive than here, all the fast food, chocolate, sweets are far cheaper than here, but the fruit or the rest of aliments are a bit more expensive. Because the english people buy in a Pouland, a shop on all the fat food costs only one pound. Perhaps the clothes are more expensive here, although the shops are diferent.

In Eastbourne you can do a lot of thing, in the morning you can go to the shopping center, In the afternoon you can to go for a walk for the town, go to the beach in summer or go to the pier and contemplate the overlooking the sea. You can also go to the pier's casino and spend a good time with your friends, so I think that it's an interesting place to visit or for go on holiday!
