AN OPINION ESSAY Some people believe charity works are unnecessary and, in addition, they consider that they cause an increase of the conformation and laziness. However, although this may be true in some cases, it is not what happens in the most of them. Personally, I think we should participate in more charity works, such as volunteering in a social lunchroom, in order to support people who need it. Unfortunately, these days, there are a lot of families that are passing through a difficult situation because they can find a job or, even if they have one, they can earn enough money for living. Furthermore, in my opinion, most people who do charity works are more empathic and know that they have to be grateful for what they have than the ones that don’t do them. Because, I believe that, by hearing so many stories, the vast majority devastating, about the different families that ask for support, they learnt how to empathize with them. All in all, I think charity work...

Speech: Today we are here together in order to talk about a very important problem. This problem is the Bullying, the bullying verbal and physical. For you to understand the concept I will give you an example. The boy's situation would be to get to school every day and he would find the thugs. He would be afraid of the thugs, and they would begin to hit him, the boy would be get to his house injured, wounded and sad.

SPEECH Good afternoon classmates. After the misbehaviours that have been having some students, I would like to say a few words about bullying, but, first of all, I am going to explain the incident.  During the last week breaks, when we should be eating our breakfast and enjoying our free time talking to our friends, a group of students have decided to spend their time humiliating and also ridiculing one of our classmates for the simple reason that he is Muslim.  Firstly, I would like to apologize, on behalf of all of us, for allowing this kind of misbehaviours because if we had penalised before, I wouldn’t have to be doing this speech. Secondly, I want to point out the fact that, fortunately, this situation has already ended and, I wish I wouldn’t have to say that, but it can happen again at any time and we have to know how to help and defend the person that is being harassed.     To sum up, I think that from now on we have to be more respectful...

The advantages of being an outcast is a film adapted and directed by Stephen Chbosky, author of the book. The protagonists are Logan Lerman (Charlie), Emma Watson (Sam) and Ezra (Patrick). It combines several genres of drama, romance and youth. The film tells the story of Charlie, an introverted teenager after the death of his best friend. He is also blamed for the death of his aunt. Charlie starts a new course and meets two friends Patrick and Sam from a superior course with whom he will share many experiences and will stop being the shy guy. Logan plays a very good role and we observe perfectly his evolution. It is a very entertaining film because the themes of teenagers and institutes always hook the viewer. In my case they resemble reality. The criticism that would put is that Charlie's life is too tragic, with suicide there would be enough. I recommend it if you like or want to see a high school movie that has drama, romance and y...

FILM REVIEW: “THE PERKS OF BEING A WALLFLOWER” “The perks of being a wallflower” is a drama film based on the best-selling novel by Stephen Chbosky, which was also the director of the film.  The movie tells the story of Charlie, the main character, which is a shy teenager that has just joined the high-school and he is struggling to make new friends. But one day, in one of his classes, he met Patrick that introduce him to his stepsister Sam, that Charlie fall in love at first sight, and his group of friends.  What I loved about the film was the friendship between the three main characters, Charlie, Patrick and Sam. I loved to see how they support and help each other and, even when they fight, they find out the way to mutually forgive. My only criticism is that I would have loved if they explained more the depths of the main characters, like the death of the Charlie’s best friend, rather than simply scratching the surface. In my opinion, it is a very well-written ...
