In my last post I'm going to compare my first post and first presentation with my last post and last presentation.
In my first post I talk about a topic with basic vocabulary, using basic expressions and simple and short sentences to try to make few mistakes. Besides I didn't use connectors and I made a lot of mistakes in verbs tenses. Now in my last post I could see a good improvement especially in my vocabulary and connectors. Also I improve in sentences (make it long) and now I use better expressions.
My best post I think it was my review about Captain America because I use a good vocabulary as twisted or more exotic words. Also this post have a few mistakes.
And in presentations, I could see a better improvement. I my first presentation I always watched the paper to didn't commit mistakes and because I felt very nervous. In my last presentation I didn't watch the paper but I felt nervous too and I don't know the reason about it.

Why Captain America: Civil War is better than Batman v Superman
Now that the two films have released (Batman Vs Superman and Captain America) we could know which is better. For now the reviews say that Captain America is better than Batman Vs Superman, Captain America with a punctuation of 91% and 50% Batman Vs Superman. But was Captain America that much better than Batman v Superman? Let’s find out.
The action scenes are very important in a superhero movie. Without good action scenes the movie loses all and marvel and DC know it very well. Captain America managed that I didn't look away from the movie except in the chase scene. The chase sequences in Captain America are a little boring, however the airport scene was incredible. On the other hand, Batman vs Superman scenes are well done but we didn't understand why they fight. Advantage: Captain America
The plot was convoluted basically the same in the two films with things you didn't expect. The stories of both films are pretty similar: superheroes do battle, make some collateral damages because of the hazards of the job of saving the world. Advantage: a tie
Captain America's characters are more worked and all characters are logical (the good, the bad), but Batman Vs Superman characters are difficult to understand, go against logic and the villain is just crazy. Advantage: Captain America
In my opinion:
I agree with him because I saw the couples films and I prefer Captain America because the plot is so much better, with an unexpected end, well all the movie are surprises. The film makes you choose between two different thoughts and therefore two teams. It is a very difficult choice because both thoughts have good and bad parts. And the plot of Batman Vs Superman is the typical they fight among themselves, then they are become friends and win the bad guy.

Is jealousy natural?
In my opinion, yes it is natural. It is instinctual emotion for an individual. I think that jealousy starts at childhood as a rivalry between two brothers. Since childhood we have always wanted to give us the same as our brother or sister and if they didn't give us the same thing we didn't like it. And that feeling of jealousy nobody has taught us.
The passage of years this feeling was increasing, it wasn't only with brothers also we began to be jealous of friends or anyone. For example: if a friend score more goals than us or got better marks or he was just talking to someone and we didn't.
Another proof that jealousy is natural is that animals also have them. If for example you're watching TV while you stroke your dog and suddenly you stop to pet him, he begins to give you his paw for you continue to stroking him.
To finish I conclude that the jealousy is natural but that doesn't mean it is neither good nor bad, it just means that everyone is jealous and this jealousy are natural. Some will have more jealousy and some less but everyone have it.

US basketball star Kobe Bryant shines in final game
Kobe Bryant, one of the best players in the NBA, just retired after an impressive career and an amazing last game.
Bryant played an impressive match and thanks to him they got overcome the Utah Jazz. He scored 60 points, 23 of them in the fourth quarter. Kobe has always played in the Lakers, winning five NBA titles and recording the third highest total number of points in the sport. Addressing the crowd after the game, he said it was "crazy" to end on such a high note.
He said he won the match thanks to all the fans, they motived Kobe to could win the game. That last game The Staples Center was filled by a lot of Hollywood stars, famous rappers and sports legends to saw the last game of Kobe.
In my opinion:
Kobe was and will always be one of the best players in history. It is one of the few players that we can compare with Jordan. Kobe withdrawal will be as if basketball had lost a large part of it. Basketball will never be the same without Kobe, he created a new way to play this sport. THANK YOU KOBE!!

Dispatches: US Coming to Grips on Prison Sentencing
In the United States more and more and more detainees are held sentences which are devastating to communities. because the sentences beginning to move away from harsher sentences.
They approving a series of amendments to its sentencing guidelines that increases the length of sentences for federal crimes. The Commission refrained from recommending harsher sentencing ranges for some immigration offenses.
These increases sentences aren't good for the health of a person it can cause many more diseases. There should be a way to release prisoners if there is any compelling reason. The Commission considers expanding the types of circumstances where compassionate release should be considered.
Consequence the politicians appear to be moving away from their reliance on harsher sentences. They show that the policy on longer and harsher sentences isn't good and that should be eased.
In my opinion:
I think the sentences should be fair. If someone has done something very bad and deserves a harsh sentence therefore we give it to him even if he have minor children or any other excuse. Everyone is responsible for their actions, whether good or bad. So if someone does something wrong, it will have to address the consequences

Expandable habitats may take us to Mars
'The Martian' would live here.
In Hollywood movies always see large structures on other planets. But, as they say space engineers, this would be impossible as there are problems like gravity.
If we build a space station in Earth orbit costs a lot of money. How much will cost if we want to live on Mars? So instead of building rigid metal structures, they are building flexible buildings that can be sent into space when they're deflated. That solution would be cheaper and easier.
Bigelow's Expandable Activity Module, or BEAM, it is built for the purpose of expand when it arrived into space. The module will stay attached to the space station for two years to see how it withstands the harsh environment of space. It is made of several layers of a very strong material. If something hits the first layer, it fractures and breaks up.
They say that these habitats will only probationary that in the not near future these habitats will be more complete with all the needs we want.
In my opinion:
If this that they said is possible, it would mean that someday we could live on Mars. It would be amazing because imagine one day you get bored and decides to go to Mars. It would be as if instead of going on vacation to Hawaii we could go to Mars.
After this news we could say that many movies now aren't science fiction.

Formal Letter
To... BarackObama@gmail.com
Subject: Human Rights
Dear Mr. President of USA Barack Obama,
We are writing to explain our opinion about human rights and show that many countries violate the Human Rights.
Human Rights are very important because they are the rights we have just because we are humans. If these countries violate the human rights it means that those countries treat us like we are not humans.
We think the best way to carry out the rights it is should be in the law. If the countries do not comply the law they would have to pay for it.
We also hope that you will give us your opinion about these topic and would like to know if USA is one of these countries.
We look forward to your reply.
Sincerely Barack Obama

My season in Vilafant
I have always played in Castello but this year I changed my basketball team, I was playing in Vilafant. Last weekend we lost the key game against SESE and with this loss we can't go to the finals. And now as I finish my season I want to explain this year in a different team. It was one of the best years because I met very good friends and could play at a high level.
In the beginning it was difficult for me to change my basketball way because in Castello I played against bad teams but this years players were stronger and good players. Also I could play against Tarragona, Cornellà and Caja Laboral.
The players who play in Vilafant are very friendly, they are very funny, I laugh a lot with them. Also they help me to improve and be a better player. So it was a big year with very amazing moments, with very good friends and I hope that the next years will be like this year.

Taylor Swift Explains Why She Left Spotify
Taylor Swift doesn't think music streaming services appropriately value her art and she considered to assess her effort the people have to pay enough money for it. Taylor critique streaming because it says it does reduce the number of album sales. All singers put a lot of dedication in the songs and it isn't fair that people hear those songs free.
Taylor told reporters: "With Beats Music and Rhapsody you have to pay for a premium package in order to access my albums. And that places a perception of value on what I've created. On Spotify, they don't have any settings, or any kind of qualifications for who gets what music. I think that people should feel that there is a value to what musicians have created, and that's that. I wrote about this in July, I wrote an op-ed piece in the Wall Street Journal. This shouldn’t be news right now. It should have been news in July when I went out and stood up and said I'm against it. And so this is really kind of an old story."
Spotify claims to have paid $ 2M to Universal (The people who have the rights to Swift's music) but don't know if Taylor saw that much or too little.
In my opinion:
Swift is right because singers work hard on his music to like people and if people can hear all your work without paying anything, I think this isn't fair. We also have to say that although there Spotify people can listen music for free on youtube. Also, there are more and more internet pirate music and they didn't pay anything singers at least spotify pay an amount, although not enough.

Captain America: Civil War
Last Friday I went to the cinema to watch Captain America: Civil War. I had read some reviews about the film and the people loved the film. For me, this new film is a masterpiece.
The film tells the story about one problem and two different points of view, Iron Man and Captain America. These different points of view causes a conflict between them. This conflict makes two teams (Team Iron Man and Team Captain America) and after causes a war.
I really liked the movie, apart from the visual effects ara amazing, the performance was really good too. The protagonism in the film was stolen from Black Panther and Spiderman. Also I love the plot because was very twisted. In conclusion this movie exceeded my expectations.

Prince's death: Singer cremated in private ceremony
Prince died in a lift on his Paisly Park state on Thursday. The cause of Prince's death is still unknown. Forensic doctors can't find an explanation for his death. The officials didn't find any sings of injuries on his body and no indications that he had committed suicide.
After his death his family and friends celebrated a private ceremony to say a loving goodbye to Prince. Meanwhile in Brooklyn on Saturday night, Bruce Springsteen was doing a concert and also did something at his concert in remembrance of Prince.
In my opinion:
This news blown me away because when I was a child prince was one of my favorite singers my father always put his music. So when I saw this news I was amazed. The other thing hard to believe is that they haven't known the cause of the death because we have a lot of new the technologies and how it can be possible that we ignoring the cause.

Zaragoza tournement
This easter I went to Zaragoza with my basketball team to play in a professional tournament with teams like Gran Canaria or Valencia Basket. It was my first year in this tournament and my team had gone the year before. We only won two games and lost four games, three of them we could have won because we're a better team. But the other game was against Caja Laboral it is an ACB basketball team, and we lost 92-44 but at least we faced them. They have five Russian players, two of them were more than two meters tall.
In Zaragoza we stayed in a hotel with the other teams. The first day I saw three very tall black men and I though the three were professional players but one friend told me that they were one year yonger than me. It was unbelievable because the three me were tall and very strong. The stay in the hotel was really funny because I was with my friend and I met a lot of people who play basketball very well. The last day we saw the final between Joventut and Distrito Olimpico de Madrid. And when I was watching the final I could see that they were really good basketball players. After the final, they also had a Dunk contest between all the teams and it was cool but i though it could have been better.
Well the tournament was really amazing but we didn't have time to visit the city because we were always at the basketball courts or at night in the hotel because we were tired from playing the two games that day.
