Problem/Solution paragraph

Question 5. Should schools have a common core curriculum? If so, what should it include? What does every student need to know?

Problem: The low English level at school.

The level of English among students in Spain is rather low. Even though children start learning English at the age of three, once they have finished high school, most part of them isn’t able to maintain a basic conversation. Therefore, they need to take up English classes in the afternoon, because speaking English is essential to get a job nowadays.

One solution to overcome this problem is to change the contents and the way English is taught at school. English subject can too repetitive, because every year we study the same and with the same studying technique: memorising. In fact, learning languages by memorising is unnatural. Languages should be learnt by listening, reading or speaking. Changing the contents would imply making the classes more dynamic and funny, instead of never-ending lectures as they are now. 

Government Surveillance

Although it may sound like the plot of a dystopian book, the government would be able to place a camera at the corner of every street, recording whatever we do, in order to keep everything under control. It would be an invasion of our privacy, and the government would have to spend a lot of money on it, because, apart from the installation, CCTVs would probably have to be constantly fixed because of vandalism. In addition, the information recorded by these cameras could be stolen by hackers who might use it to blackmail people.

A poem

Shall I compare you to a cloud?
I can see you from the ground
But as I search for you on the crowd
You are nowhere to be found.

Tears try to run from my eyes
As the drops that fall from you.
Though I am trying them to disguise
You know that they are true.

I am trying to reach for you again and again
But the closer I get, the farther you seem.
I am trying to get you out of my brain
But the longer I try, the darker my gleam.

Living in a big city vs in a small town

Living in a big city is very different from living in a small town. I have always lived in a small town, but this year I have moved to Murcia, which has been very difficult for me. That's why I think I am experienced enough to compare both of them.

On the one hand, big cities as are more crowded, there are more things to do. For instance, here in Murcia, there are a lot of shopping centers, etc. This also means that you don't know everyone, and that there is always someone new to meet. However,there are alarming levels of pollution in big cities because of the cars, industries, etc.

On the other hand, as small towns aren't so crowded, there is nothing to do and you already know everyone. Moreover, in smal towns there aren't as many cars and we can actually feel how the air is cleaner.

In conclusion, they both have advantages and disadvantages. But as I said, living in a big city is more interesting since there are more things to do.
