Valentino Rossi was born in Urbino (Italy), and he began his career competing with Karts. Then, in 1996 he started on the World of Motorcycling into the 125cc category and he won his first championship. After winning one year and other in the categories of 125cc and 250cc, V. Rossi passed to 500cc with an Honda (Team Repsol) which he had obtained 3 World’s titles consecutives. In the year 2004, Rossi did the major challenge of his career and of his live, that it was being champion of the world and the following year, with Yamaha, Rossi won it to. Other think that characterizes Rossi, are their celebrations, because he does very surrealist things, for example he took an inflatable doll in the motorcycle up, rised to the podium with a chicken, etc.
He has won 9 world championships, and the last has been one month ago in Malaysia.
Valentino has some nicknames, for example we can see the nexts: Valentinick, Doctor Rossi, Tavullia's Goblin,... and he is for many people the best pilot of all the times, because for us, he isn't normal!
This group was formed in 2001 in Sheffield (England), but they started to play officialy in 2002; the members of "Arctic Monkeys" are: Alex Turner who is the singer and the guitar, Jamie Cook that he is the guitarist, Nick O'Malley who plays the bass guitar and finally we can see Matt Helders, the drummer. Since 2002, the group use to be in the top ten of the list, because they produce a really good music and do a lot of concerts because they would like be more famous thant actually. This year, they have gone to differents sites, and the've done 65 concerts around the world; if we would like to see them, we have to wait until the 6 of Febraury, in Barcelona. The style of this band is tha alternative rock and it is influenced by the post-punk revival, acid rock and Indie rock. Arctic Monkeys have extracted 3 albums, that they are: "Whatever People Say I Am, That's What I'm Not" (2006), "Favourite Worst Nightmare" (2007) and "Hambug", which it's published this year. For me, some of the best songs are: "Fluorescent Adolescent", "Brianstorm", "The bad thing",... all of its are into the second album, which in my opinion it's better than the first and the third.
Now, I put a video about this group, that are playing "Fluorescent Adolescent":

Now, I'm going to comment a little bit my oral presentation, which I has done with my friend called Guillem Sanz. The topic was "Youtube fun" and we explained the history of youtube, the videos' commons features that all of you can see to this page, the problems that can produce this webpage...
Now, for do the comment, I'm going to have grounds to the "evaluator's paper", which has the next structure:
Presentation:
Guillem and me used a powerpoint because for us it was be very useful, and all the times, this resource is good to follow the presentation. Other thing that we did correct had been the oral presentation's time, because we were speaking about nine or ten minutes ( approximately, five minutes per person).
Body language & eye contact:
In my opinion, I think that we should look the audience all the time, because it means that the presenter has studied, and he doesn't need read the paper. Other thing, that we should improve, is our nervousness, because the people, who are listening to us, note it.
Structure:
For me, the structure of this oral presentation was right, because we did an introduction, an explication and finally some conclusions, but we didn't use many discourse makers, and it was points against the note.
Content:
I hope that the content of this oral presentation had been entretaining and that we introduce new infotmation to the audience, because it was our goal.
To improve this part, I think we should give more examples and justify our opinions about the topic.
Language:
About the language that we used in the oral presentation was easy, because we decided to not complicate it, because for Guillem and me the english's language it's a little bit difficult, and for this reason we didn't use vocabulary rich and connectors, but we utilized a lot of fillers like "well", "for example",...
Pronunciation & Intonation:
For me, it was the worst part of our oral presentation, because our pronunciation was very poor and we didn't intonated the best that we know do; I supposed that it's for our nervousness, but I'm sure we will to improve this part, and the next mark will be better than it. ;)
The new says that some bars and restaurants located in Barcelona have begun to hire private security guards to stop that their clients being robbed, especially in summer, when teenagers steal bags or cameras in the cafes, for example.
In my opinion, I think that it's a good idea for the bar's clients, because they feel more safe, and they can stay in these sites better than time ago. I know that it's a little bit expansive, but I'm sure that it's more account than lost clients; for this reason, I hope that all the bars to Girona follow this method, because every time there are more robatories.
Slumdog Millionaire is a story of one teenager called Jamal Malik, who is poor and lives in the slums of Mumbai, and he has been arrested for police because they didn’t belive that the boy, who presented in a programe of TV, knows every answer to the questions that the presenter was doing. For this reason, the boy explain his live them because he had seen all of the answers throughout it, and for it he said:"In life is the answer"
In this film, I love the setting of the story, because I think that it's very right with the plot, and it reflects the condition of the main character and her family and friend. Other thing that liked to me was the music end, because when I listened it, I recognized it immediately, of course that the other themes are wonderful, because the film has an espectacular soundtrack. But I don't like the effects of "Slumdog Millionaire" because they are poor for my pleasure, and the character called Latika, who I think she lacks expression, and it don't convince to me. For me, this film has been one of the best film that I've seen, because it isn't the typical film and for this reason I say that all of you should be to see this film, it's brilliant, you will see it ;)
Human rights are "basic rights and freedoms to which all humans are entitled"[1], or more easy than it, could be: the rights you have simply because you are human. We can say human rights started in the UK in the year 1215, with the Magna Carta, because the people thought that the most important thing in our lives are ourselves.
Nowadays there are 30 human rights, but I think that the fifty percent or more, we don't respect, and it could be a seriously problem in a future, because this percentage could increase.
I choose the human right number 5, that say: "No one shall be subjected to torture or to cruel, inhuman or degrading treatment or punishment"", because I think that it's one of the most important for me, and in these ages it isn't respected in all the world; everyday we can see a lot of proofs of it in the newspapers for example, and now, I've just included a link about this: http://www.telegraph.co.uk/news/worldnews/middleeast/iraq/5708020/British-Army-faces-20-new-Iraq-torture-claims.html
Nevertheless in this country it is more respected that other sites, but in the past, there are a lot of people that used this method to impose, because in this way they could obtain that he wanted. For this reason, these days the people continue to use it because they feel superior, and it happens in all the world, in all countries.
Like every year, one of the most important town festival is in Girona and it happens around to the end of October or the beginning of November, and it is the famous "Barraques"! It is very amusing because you can meet with a lot of people and you can see all your friends there and then, when you explain to other people the night, you realize that you've had some memorables moments.
This time, the music didn't accompany with us, but it didn't matter, because we had been with a formidable and we made the most of the time, because we know that it happens only once time on the year.
The first day played "Els Pets", a catalan group, that are very famous here, and it was the reason why many people came; another day a lot of people went to Girona because it was the last dat, and all of us wanted to enjoy the maximum!
I can say that I enjoyed a lot this Barraques, and also I laughted very much. It often is good for us, but it isn't for our body :P
My name’s Pau Ubric, I’m seventeen years old and I live in Sant Pere Pescador. Now, I think that you know a little about me because we saw in three or four classes, but I am going to explain you other things.
First of all I'm going to tell you about my hobbies. I love playing football, listening to music and going out with my friends. Right now, I’m playing in F.C Sant Pere and I’m the goalkeeper, really enjoy playing this magnificent sport. Another thing that I like so much is when we mix friends and music, ‘cause it’s very pleasing for me, we enjoy ourselves very much.
Secondly I would like to explain a little bit about my future, because now I’m studying for one reason, that it is because I would like to devote my life in a school, if I haven’t got any problem, I will be a teacher of Physical Education.
Thirdly, I can only tell you that my friends say I'm a joker and a nice person, and really, I feel good when they say it, ‘cause it isn’t a bad thing, is it? =)
Well, I hope that you can know more about me Lourdes! I will see you in the next class ;)
