Is everything ok?" he shouted desperately, "Yes" he answered, "However I have very good news!","Really? And what is it?" he asked, "I won the lottery!" said Mark, "Congratulations!" said Tom, "What are you going to do with the money? asked Tom."Well, first of all I have to go and ask for it, but then I'm going to buy a new computer, even though I already have one, I want a better computer, similar to John's computer, on the other hand I want some clothes, In particular T-Shirts, notably I always use the same ones" He answered, "Well, I have to go to my mother's house so bye!" said Mark, "Bye Mark, see you later" Mark went to his house so the next day he could go and ask the price.
In the class of Language, with Andrea, we wrote a letter. In this letter we should write about: Whose responsability is it to prevent the crime? Write a letter to the editor explaining your views. Give specific examples of what the police can do to protect themselves and their neighbours.
Start the letter, "Dear editor"
Use the "useful expressions"
Introductory comments = 1 (one)
Agreeing = 3 (three)
Explaining your views = 2 (two)
Claryfing = 2 (two)

Dear editor,
I read your article about crimes and how to avoid them. I am a resident of Adrogue, I fully support the fact that there are more crimes.
For this reason I believe that the police should patrol the streets at all times. That is to say that they should be walking in the streets looking around. They should install cameras in the srteet for more safety.
I fully agree with people that say that we should protect ourselves. Therefore, I will suggest some things for people to protect their homes. People should have railings installed or maybe have a group of neighbours, in other words, neighbours should be in constant communicaiton.
As a conclusion, both, police and citizens should cooperate to make a safe neighbourhood. So, I fully recommend using one of these suggestions. Last but not least, be careful n the streets! Do not use the cellphone and avoid talking with strangers.

Oh Romeo! Oh Romeo!
The play "Oh Romeo! Oh Romeo!" is created by the students of the Newlands School. They made a collage of some parts of Shackespeare's plays. In my opinion they made a fantastic job due to the way in which they transformed bored plays in a funny and enjoyable play.
Personally I believe that they choose their favourite parts or the most powerfull in the play. However I think they should add parts from other plays.
In addition they made an awsome job in the props. From the artistic point of view, the setting was created very well.
Even though they were losing, finnaly they won. They made a funny and enjoyable play, as a result it was very succesful and original.
Adove all, it takes a lot of time to prepare, especially the costumes, props an setting. Futhermore the actors made a great job. Whereas they see the camera form time to time.
As a conclusion, they made an awesome job, and they deserved to win.
