Nowadays plastic is a really big problem for everyone in the world, we must take conscience and use as less as we can and i think that we should start teaching the children, and teaching them how to recycle it and where they have to throw it away. In my opinion the students should be banned from throwing away plastic products because if you start teaching something to someone since it is a child, this person takes that as a habit and gives an example to other people, like their fathers. If we do that we also incite a few people to reduce the consumption of the plastic. I think they should start with the children because it's much easier and because they are our future, and also because it’s so difficult to change a person when it’s old and has this habit integrated. To summarise, the best way to recycle plastic and reduce de consume is to start with the children because if they learn where they have to put the plastic they will take it as a habit.

5. SEEING THE WORLD BEFORE UNIVERSITY What would I do if I had a gap year before university A gap year is a period of time, usually an academic year, when a student takes a break from formal education, and what people usually do is to go forward to travel around the world or gain work experience. If i had a gap year i would try to do so many things and enjoy life. First of all I would try to travel around the world specially places where i could practice my english, for example Australia, Canada... There I would try to take a short temporary job to gain experience and meet new people easily. Also it would be easier for me to visit some not touristy but amazing places where my new friends could bring me. In this way it would be easier for me to see the costumes from these places too. In conclusion, I think I would make a lot of profit in a gap year, it would benefit me because I would be able to make new friends from other countries and I could improve my English skills and meet new cultures. 6. Should we become vegetarians? Now being a vegetarian is a very common trend, try to stop eating meat, It’s true that it consists of eating a healthy diet, but not eating meat has consequences, i know for experience, for me we would have to stop eating meat in excess. Being a vegetarian is positive in different aspects, for example, the diet is healthier and reduces the risk of contracting a disease. However, the meat consumed is positive and necessary because the meat carries a more proteins than vegetals and us need the proteins for a life saludable

In conclusion, it is true that following vegetarian diets results in many benefits such as lowering risks of getting chronic illnesses. However, I believe that meat is need for life saludable but there are a other option that is consumed a vitamins and proteins in pills.

7. An informal E-mai l Hi Júlia, How are you doing? I texted you because today when I was eating with Clara in Tagliatela restaurant you'll never know what we have heard, next to us there was Nicolas and Tom talking about your friend Martina, at the beginning of their conversation they were saying that she was organising a party, and they seemed very excited about that! But then they started criticizing her and saying really bad things about her and her boyfriend Nico, and me and Clara think that they are really bad and false friends of her and I think they just wanted to take advantage of her. In my opinion you should tell her about that, because they are really false friends and no one wants to have this type of friends around them. 9. A for and against essay: what are the advantages and disadvantages of buying food in the market For and against of buying food in the market Nowadays because of coronavirus, many of us have the costume of buying foods online on in other places than the market. Some people do it because they don't want to go to crowded places or places where people can touch what they might eat in the future.. or some other people do it just because they are too lazy and they don't want to go there and prefer. Although maybe some people think that that's better there are so many reasons why it's not. The advantages about buying food in the market are so many, but I think that the most important one nowadays is that buying things from local markets reduces the environmental contamination because you tend to buy local foods and that's good for the economy of the country too. in addition usually they are healthier and you also can choose the fruits you want and you also can choose if you want the most ripe or greenest fruits..
