Blog of the week- Advertisements

Today’s advertisements make an impact in our society. There are many advertisements that have influenced in our lives. There are many experts on advertising that transform a simple face cream in a magic cream that make people look younger. Many people believe these advertisement because you see in the advertisement a woman who tells that she has 50 years old and she looks like 30 years old because she has used that cream, so people ,mostly women, spend a lot of money in that cream that when they realised that it doesn’t work as they thought is too late. Then we have the advertisements that make the famous. The ad men hire famous people to advertise their products(perfumes, cars, shoes, razor blades, clothes, coffee…) so we see them that use those products, we like it because they have them and we want to buy it but mostly young people because it’s easy to manipulate us is we see our famous singer or actor or actress advertising a perfume. So we see many people with the hair of Cristiano Ronaldo everywhere or with the shoes of Messi.

But this is normal because everywhere we look, we see advertisements: in our TV, our computer, streets, magazines… so it’s difficult to resist temptation of buying everything we see. As a result of that we have a lot of things that we don’t use and an advertisement company is winning money for our shopping.

Blog of the week- Shakespeare

If you like reading tragedic books, you can go to the library and take a book of Shakespeare wwho was a great playwright. He shows us  his talent in plays like 'Romeo','Hamlet', or 'Otelo'. These plays have a tragedic ending.

These plays are still being represented in many theatres and also we can see them in movies. In conclusion, Shakespeare's plays still have a strong influence today because some of his plays treat current topics.

Blog of the Week- Environment

 One problem in today’s society is the contamination. Since our planet is very developed there are much air pollution because of the exhaust fumes from millions of vehicles, chemical wastes from factories, poisonous smoke from the power stations and other pollution products. That can cause unwanted changes like the climate change, the rising of the sea level and to deplete the ozone layer.

I think that people are enough concerned with the contamination and the protection of the natural environment but most of them do not want to help. Many people who don’t care the environment throw rubbish into the lakes, mountains, streets and that is very dangerous for us and animals too because if you throw rubbish into the lakes or oceans can damage to marine animals or if you throw rubbish into the mountains that can cause a fire and kill many animals and plants.

In my family we like to recycle but the one who recycles more is my father. He separates all the rubbish. For example he has a rubbish bin for the oil, another from the batteries and other for the paper and carton; the plastic and the organic rubbish. 

To embrace green politics would be a great solution in our society. Many companies of cars have created electric cars in order to avoid these exhausting fumes. Also we count with a lot of rubbish bins for each litter. The contamination can be very dangerous because of that we are changing the average temperature and we are also destroying the polar ice.

Blog of the week- The Sims

Have you ever dream of having a big house or being famous? Maxi makes it possible with the game of The Sims.

Since 2000 we can create our own life and have what we like. In the game you control a Sim which is the same that a person. You have to create it first as you want; a boy or a girl with green eyes, black hair; you can choose their zodiac sign too; their hobbies and also in the last Sims you can choose their personalities.

Once you have created you own Sim or even your Sims' family you can go to the neighborhood and choose te house where the SIms are going to live or if you want you can create the house that you want but you have to keep an eye on the money that your Sims have or they will not e able to pay the bills

When you have installed your Sims in the house the first thing you have to do is search a job because if you don't do it they can't pay the bills or they can't buy food so they will finsh witouth the house and they can die (if they don't find food).

But that is not all the things that you can do in the game because if that were all it will look like probably your real life. The Sims count with a lot of  expansion and stuffs packs: for example in the Sims 2, which is the game that I have, you can travel around the world and visit the Tiwikki Island, Three lakes and Takemizu Village, where you can discover a lot of new things. Also you can go to University, Open your own bussines, decorate you house with things of IKEA...

The best part of the game I think is that you can become a creature. In each expansion pack you can become a different creature: a vampire,  zombie, werevolve, plantsim, witch... But it's difficult that your Sim become one of that creature.

If you want to make the life of your Sim easier you can do a little of cheat. In The Sims 2 there are a lot of  tricks to do that. For example: if you want to ear money withouth work you can type the word 'motherlode' to earn 50.000 simoleons.
