I suggest, the club should use another way to put the footballer in touch with THE club

not possible, I ask YOU to refund me the money. I hope, you will consider my suggestions.

This is a photo of a girl reading IN HER BEDROOM. In the photo I can see a person, she
is a teenager. She has got long and brown hair. She is wearing a pink pyjama. She is
 sitting on her bed because she is reading a book, maybe she is studying for an exam.
The bedroom is quite dark. I can only see the sunlight that enters through the window.
In the background, there is a wall, a big open window and A radiator. Finally, I can say
that the environment is peaceful.

My favourite book is The pursuit of happiness. The pursuit of happiness is one of the
best AmericaN biographical drama book of the year. This book is written by Chris
Garden and based on the true story of Chris Garden’s life. In this book, Chris Garden is
a homeless salesman turned stockbroker who became a rich man. My
recommendation is to read it now. You will be really satisfied about the story.

Nowadays, reading books is A very easy and economic WAY OF LEARNING
EXPERIENCE. since BESIDES there are different kinds of books, for example, E-books
and virtual books which you can download from internet. In my opinion, reading books
is very important because you can learn a lot about different topics. Besides, you can
develop your imagination to create youR own stories. Finally, reading books help
people to be in touch with other cultures.

Part 3 (Comparar dos fotos y dos preguntas, 45 s)

- Please compare the photos:

Both photos are about people doing exercise. In the first photo, I can see a couple, a
woman and a man. They are walking up a hill. They are wearing sport clothes and
carrying backpacks, maybe they have taken something to eat. In the second one, there
is another couple, a woman and A man who ARE walking their dog. They are wearing
summer clothes perhaps the day is hot. The girl is wearing sunglasses to protect her
eyes from THE sun.

- Why do you think these people are walking outside?

I think those people are walking outside due to different reasons, the first one COULD
BE THAT THEY LIKE likes doing exercise and breathING pure air. Perhaps, they like to
be healthy and fit for this reason they go walking on a hill. Besides, they like being in a
calm place surrounded by nature. The other couple also like doing exercise and maybe
they are also interested in walking their dog to have a healthy pet. They prefer walking
in a park because it is next home. In this place, they also can breathe pure air and talk
to another OTHER people.

- Which of these types of walking do you prefer? Why?

I prefer the first one because I love walking up hills, while I breath pure air. When you
climb a mountain, you do strong exercise since you work, specially your legs. All your
body is moving and your mind is calmed so you can’t think about any problem. When
I’m in touch with the nature, I feel so relaxed. Besides, climbing mountain helps you to
 be fit and heathy. I usually go hiking on weekends with my friends because they also
like walking.

Part 4 ( 3 preguntas, 1 min para pensar y dos para contestarlas todas)

- Tell me a time when you worked with a team.

- What were the pros and cons of working together?
- Do you prefer to work alone or as part of a team?
A time when I worked in a team was where my team of handball TEAM WAS were
preparing to participate in a competition.
On the one hand, the pros of working in a team are that the work is coordinated to be
efficient. For example, every member of the team has a special position and special
task to do, if one of them fail, all the team fail. All the players help each other, and
they encouraged you to do the best.
On the other hand, the cons of working in a team are that if one of the players is ill or
injured this situation affect the performance of the team. Besides, if someone is
working bad the results of the matches are low. If somebody is late during the training,
he or she causes problems to the coach.

I usually prefer working in a team because I like to be supported by the team. However, I love
having very good friends to talk and to go out.
