My father attends his farm every day, where he has crops

which he has to watch out for, so that they can produce a
harvest. on the other hand my mom, she is in charge of the
daily activities of the house.

3. Please write about the activities you don’t like doing

Among the activities that I do not like to do this, go shopping,

since sometimes I am not clear about what I want to buy, for
example, I usually go to buy clothes, but it happens that I do
not like the brand or the type of fabric, size, color or
sometimes I like other things which are not within my budget
or purchase option.
4. Please choose 5 two-word verbs and provide 5 examples with each one:

4.1--when I get home from work, I usually take off my shoes.

4.4 _____________________________________________________________
4.5 _____________________________________________________________

5. Please write your opinion about abortion:

I think that abortion is a practice that goes against many laws, be

they religious, norms. In the way that, a life opportunity is being
taken away from a defenseless being who has no fault in himself,
of the actions that lead to these decisions to others.
I do not agree that it continues to be practiced, since we all have
a fundamental right which is life, and we must all enjoy this
privilege, to breathe the air, to look at the blue sky.
