PROBLEM / SOLUTION PARAGRAPH: overfishing

Overfishing

     Overfishing is a serious problem, which is present in different seas and oceans all around the planet. Marine life is being hardly reduced because of it, and doesn't seems to stop unless we adopt inmediate actions against it. A possible solution could be the creation of more fish farms. Also, the increasing of penalties could be a solution too. However, change this situation is something really difficult, that is the simple truth.

   

     

COMPLETE ESSAY: bullfights

Bullfights

     Nowadays, many people are against bullfights, but our culture still sees it as a way of entertainment and even a sport. This "sport" should be totally forbbiden all around the world, because if you kill an animal just for fun, you have a real problem.

     Bullfights are a shame for me as a Spanish person, they not only don't represent our culture, they give an awful image to other countries. In addition, people who like them, claim that the detractors like me don't understand this kind of art. The question should be: do they (people who like them) really underdstand the suffering of the bull? Honestly, I don't think so. They even believe that a brave animal such as the bull doesn't feel any pain when it is pierced by a sword, but I find this point of view absolutely ridiculous. Also, there is something quite intringing in this issue, and is that countrieslike U.S.A. or U.K., they are seemed as a positive reference of our culture, which is embarrassing. People who like them deserve exactly the same respect as the ones who don't, but that doesn't mean we had to permit the practise of these events.

     In brief, we shouldn't see this as something beneficious for us, because it's exactly the opposite. Is possible to entertain people without killing an innocent animal.

(Sorry for the brutality of the image, but it shows reality perfectly)

UNITY AND COHERENCE: electronic devices in our life

Electronic devices in our life

     Nowadays, electronic systems play an important rol in the majority of us. They have million users all over the world, but that does not mean that they do not have any disadvatages. 

     Devices such as smartphones, tablets appeared in our life in recent years, much later than computers, to make our life easier and be connected wherever we are. As the co-founder of Apple, Steve Jobs, said "What a computer is to me is the most remarkable tool that we have ever come up with. It's the equivalent of a bicycle for our minds.". In addition, they allow us to be with our loved ones even when they are far.

     However, all that glitters is not gold.  Electronic systems have some drawbacks too, for instance, they provoke us new conerns and worries that we did not have before. Moreover, they usually make us being more conscious of virtual world than real one. Geoff Johns, writer from DC Comics, said "The truth is, we're all cyborgs with cell phones and online identities.", and here we have other problem of these devices, hacking, which put at risk our safety on Internet.

     In brief, appliances like smartphones can improve our life or ruin it, but it only depends on the way we use them.

OPINION PARAGRAPH about university stress

University stress

     

     University students usually have a constant stress due to the number os subjects and, above all, exams. We especially feel a high pressure when final exams are close, because the entire four-month period or year is at stake. This stress should not be so severe and even chronic, since we are used to be under similar pressure in previous years of our education. Honestly, it is logical to feel that in these times, but if our health is affected because of it, we have a real problem.
