The Dream

After 10 months of her mother`s death, Lucy was hoping that her mother, Susy, would tell her something very important.
Lucy was a beautiful woman, she had 25 years and she was living in Los Angeles, a house with little to do; it was small because only Lucy was there. She always remembered her mother, how sweet and how wonderful she was.
One day, Lucy saw a man who was with a motorbike. This man was getting near. He told Lucy that her mother was alive and was waiting for her in Lucy`s house.
Lucy ran into the house, went in to the living room and nothing was there. She toured all the house and there was nothing. The girl went where the man was and he disappeared. Lucy was very nervous and she had a lot of problems, one of this problems was that she couldn`t find Susy who was supposedly alive.
The night came and, when she closed her eyes, all of a sudden, it was only a dream.

Petition Letter

Dear Local Authorities from Calcutta
I am Marina Lecour and I am 14 years old. I`m studying at Newlands School.
Calcutta has a lot of problems. The Provision of services is one because the electricity, schools and hospitals are amounts of money that you spend without thinking about it. Another is the physical problems that consist of heavy rainfall that is brought by tropical storms because of the bad weather condition.
On September 1, 2011, I talked about these problems to my partners and they told me that we can reduce the electricity by putting ecological bulbs. The following day we thought that in the streets we can build pipes for water not to flood.
It is your obligation to do something for your people, they deserve a better life.
Thank you for your cooperation.

ESSAY

The CAP is the Common Agricultural Policy. The basic aims of the Cap when it was set up in 1962 in Europe were to create a single, internal market in which agricultural products could move freely; to give financial support to farmers who accept CAP and to increase the average field size, farm size and farmers income. in this Essay we are going to talk about the Advantages and the Disadvantages of it.

On one hand, with reference to the advantages, farmers don`t need to compete against other farmers. they don`t need to use their savings if they want to start farming. If they increase the size and the farmer`s income, they not only can produce more but also earn more. These are the advantages because they can increase the farm size, move freely and give financial support so this benefits them.

On the other hand, however, there were also disadvantages. for example, there isn`t any other market to sell products for them to be more expensive; if the farmers don`t accept CAP they won`t receive money; if they don`t have money, they can`t increase the farm. These are the disadvantages because if these things happen, it is more difficult to earn money.

To sum up, the CAP would have been more productive if only had benefited farmers without money.

In Britain, the best Lake District National Park

It's a beautiful place! I spent a lot of time there; I really enjoyed it. It has mountains, valleys and a lake scenery. They are wonderful.
The best thing about this place is that you can see things that in another place you can't. This place attracts the tourists, also second-home owner and retired people.
It has beautiful views and landscapes, such as mountains, lakes, etc. I like this place, it has the latest Lake District National Park Plan which identifies several special qualities such as the mixture of natural and formed landscapes, diversity of flora, spectacular scenery and a wide range of ecosystems.
So, with all this, I recommend visiting such a lovely place because you will have a nice time to spend with friends and family.
       

Glaciares, reserva de agua dulce

Actividad N°1
Un glaciar es una masa de hielo gruesa que se mueve por la fuerza de su propio peso. Son reservas de agua dulce, de recurso muy valioso. Es una fuente potencial de energía hidroeléctrica. La Cordillera esta cubierta por dos extensas capas de hielo, que contienen 47 glaciares. Al Oeste se van por el Pacifico y al Este por Ríos Patagónicos.

Actividad N°3
1- El método mas comúnmente utilizado mide directamente en terreno el cambio de masa de glaciar. Esta medición se lleva a cabo a partir de una instalación de una red de estacas (llamadas balizas, stakes) en la mayor parte del glaciar. En su sección alta, donde generalmente la acumulación supera la ablación, se excavan pozos o se hacen perforaciones donde se mide directamente la cantidad de nieve o de hielo acumulada (o) entre e inicio y el fin del año hidrológico.
Posteriormente, por densimetría es convertida (o) en equivalente de agua.
Cambios de elevacion: Topografía Superficial mediante GPS que sirve para proporcionar estimaciones precisas de posición, velocidad y tiempo.

Video Hielos Continentales

Este video fue hecho con el propósito de que el derretimiento de los glaciares no sea tan frecuente. 

Acá, lo que nos cuenta, es que hay que prevenir que esto siga ocurriendo. Ojala todas las personas puedan ayudar con este fenómeno a que no se siga derritiendo frecuentemente.

Volumen de los Glaciares

Entre 1968 y 1975 hubo una pérdida anual promedio de 13.5 km3  

Entre 1995 y 2000 hubo una pérdida anual promedio de 38.7 km3

El Glaciar Perito Moreno aporta al Río Santa Cruz por fusión. 

0,58+0.39= 0.97 km3

Una pileta de natación de 25 mts. x 10 mts. tiene un promedio de profundidad de 2 mts. 

Volumen de agua= 25 mts. x 10mts. x 2 mts.= 500 mts3

7x 13.5 km3=94.5 km3

5x38.7 km3= 193.5 km3. La suma de estos dos números es de 288 km3

En 12 años (del 1968 al 1975 y 1995 al 2000) se perdió 288 km3 

1 km3= 1000mts x 1000 mts x 1000 mts

1km3= 1000.000.000 km3 

Volumen= 288.000.000.000 mts3 equivale a 576.000.000 piletas.
