160. PROS AND CONS OF USING A BICYCLE TO MOVE IN A CITY , by V.D (E.S.O 3)


SONG: Soul Asylum - Runaway Train


Using a bicycle is advisable as it does not pollute.

With it you can enjoy more your ride as you can stop whenever you want and take photos. It is easier to move around a city riding as there are more places where you can leave the bicycle. Another advantage of using a bicycle in a city is that it is healthy as you can do exercise.

On the other hand, you can suffer accidents on the road. It can also start to rain, and if you are riding the bicycle, you can get wet and catch a cold. Although, before, I mentioned that there are more places to leave the bicycle, it’s also true that in some of those places it isn’t safe to leave the bike as it could be stolen.

Finally, it may not be comfortable to use a bicycle in a city as there are a lot of people and cars and, unless there is a bicycle lane, it is almost impossible to ride it.


Riding a bicycle is a healthy activity, however it is a bit hard to use them in a city as Santander.

159: WHAT IS HAPPENING AROUND ME, A.F (E.S.O 3)


SONG:  Ludovico Einaudi - Primavera


I am in a park, relaxing in my free time and I can see that many other people like relaxing with their relatives in a park too.

I am in a wooden bench, near a little lake which is full of ducks and geese. Some children are trying to catch them.

I can see an old couple feeding pigeons. They are surrounded by lots of pigeons which come to eat the little crumbs of bread that the couple is throwing to the ground to feed them.

I can also see a man with his children. They are skating around the park with their roller skates, except the son, who has a cool scooter.


On the other side of the park, some people are eating ice creams as it is very hot and there is a little ice-cream parlour that sells very cheap ice-creams of all flavors. I think I am going to buy a lemon ice-cream since I want one and lemon is my favourite flavor.

158. DESCRIBE WHAT IS HAPPENING AROUND YOU, by V.D (E.SO 3)


SONG: Nina simone - Mr Bojangles


There is a lot of noise.

It doesn’t matter where you look, there are euphoric people screaming and queuing.

If you look to the right, you can see some people getting out of the roller-coaster. There is a girl who looks very frightened as she is shivering and white as the snow. A guy who could be her brother or her boyfriend is holding her at the same time that he is telling her something.

A bit more to the left, there is a baby in a baby carriage who is crying, and a very beautiful woman, who I suppose is his mother, who is talking on her mobile phone. There is a pacifier on the floor. The baby must be crying because of that. Poor kid!

I hear some shouts behind me, so I turn around to see what is happening. There are two men who are ready to start a fight whereas they shout one each other in an inhumane way. A woman is crying and asking them to stop, although it is in vane, as it is as if they couldn’t see her.

The people who are queuing to ride on the big wheel are moving.

The man who is in front of me holds a young girl, probably his granddaughter, who is watching me in a serious way. I smile at her and after a few moments, she returns me back the smile.

I stop looking at the girl to observe a group of birds that just came out of a tree. But my attention passes quickly from the birds to a frisbee that finishes in the hands of a twelve year old kid.

Next to him, there is a cotton candy stall.

My day starts well.
