Essay

It is a well-known fact that relationships between people have changed because of social media. However, this changes can be considered positive.

Far from having a negative impact on human relationships, social media has developed and re-designed human relations in better ways. For example, people can now talk to people that would not have been even possible without social media. This is because through networks such as facebook, people can now not only connect but interact with people from around the world.

There are those who believe that the future will be catastrophic and really lonely due to social media since no one will get out of their houses and the world will be completely digitalised. Other argue that due to social media and their inclusion of tools like VR (virtual reality), will enlarge human potential and "take" them to places they would have never met, as well as having lots of new relations from all over the world.

All in all, even though social media helped the term "relationship" change for good, it may have a positive impact on people's life.

Un fuerte terremoto sacude el suroeste de México 

21/03/2012
El sur de México se vio sacudido por un terremoto de 7,8 en la escala de Richter, el segundo en 4 meses en sacudir México. Su onda expansiva se hizo sentir también en en la Ciudad de México a las 12:03 hora local. El epicentro del sismo se localizó en el estado de Guerrero, uno de los más pobres del país, en donde no hubieron víctimas mortales ni daños materiales considerables. Según el Servicio Sismológico mexicano habría réplicas durante las siguientes 24 horas. El Instituto Geológico de Estados Unidos informó sobre la existencia de otro sismo de 5,1 en Oaxaca, México, y otro de 6,2 en Indonesia. 

Este tema se relaciona con la geografía, con la geología y con la materia Ciencias de la Tierra debido a que se estudia un sismo. Los sismos son causados por los distintos movimientos de las placas tectónicas, estudiadas por las Ciencias de la Tierra junto a estos. Por otro lado se habla de la onda expansiva del sismo, cabe aclarar que las ondas, sus causas y características también son estudiadas por las ciencias de la tierra.

Dear Mr. Thompson,
I am writing to recommend Sarah Connor for the position of student services assistant at the English-language college you are headmaster of. Sarah has lived in London since she was twenty years old, twelve years from now, and I have known her since then
Sarah is trustworthy, experienced and skill full. She has worked in a technological institute for two years four years ago and was recognised with a two hundred pounds award for responsibility, as she never missed any of the classes she gave or absent to the hours she was haven as school technic assistant.
She went to a computer programming based school, where she graduated at the age of fourteen, 4 ages earlier than expected. She started working in a computer shop as and graduate from programming career at 18. She has worked in several schools since then and, as in the mentioned one, she was recognised for several reasons. She is a really multi-tasker, she worked at 3 schools at the same time and had different positions on each one. She can answer technology-related questions while correcting exam she from students, which also proves how well organised she is.
To conclude, I highly recommend Sarah for the position because of her amazing computer skills, working experience and multi-tasking abilities.
Yours faithfully,
Connor James

To whom it may concern,

I am writing to recommend Christian Davis for the position of art instructor, at Creative Camps. Christian is now 26 and I have known him since we started the arts career at college, when he was 21.
As I mentioned before, Christian is 26 years old, which makes him the ideal candidate, as he isn't too old nor too young. This means he will not be too strict with the children and will have a good attitude towards them. In addition, he is very creative, so he always find an interesting, fun and easy way to explain things to children that may result boring to them if explained in traditional ways. Also, Christian has fun when working with kids and is always looking forward to do it.
When talking about skills, Christian is an arts expert, he had always loved arts but it was in middle school when, with his arts teacher support, moved to an all-art institute, where he learnt all he needed to enter the most prestigious art College in America to graduate with a special mention degree in pottery, drawing and sculpture history.
I believe Christian’s specialisation in arts, his ability to explain things to kids in a way they enjoy it and his relationship with them make him the perfect and highly recommended person for the position.
Yours,
Sebastián Vázquez
