My ENGLISH PROGRESS from 2013-2016


Final reflection 


These past four years at High School have been far more than just school to me. I learned about myself, my classmate that some became my best friends. These years were so many learning experiences for me throughout High School, some were negative and other positive, the truth there been all, It was unforgettable moments.

Respect of my English progress, comparing my written in fourth of ESO and my last composition on my blog I see many differences. Firstly, regarding grammar on my writing of ESO still I didn’t dominated the pronouns “his” “her” “them” and “their”, always it confused me. Also the present simple that in the third person singular “he” “she” and “It” we added an “s” at the end of the verb. But now, I have these things clear maybe sometimes not but that just depends on my attention and concentration. Secondly, concerning vocabulary on my last composition It can see the fluidity of language is not in the broad sense but I have progressed compared to my first writing. I have learned a lot of new words or rather a technical words as “punishment” “nip-tuck” “prenups” “jokes” and other. Finally, now my writings not all but majority have a good content and structure (with introduction, body and closing), I can see a personal development.

About my oral presentation I still have difficulties, I become nervous at all. The nerves not let me look at audience and this why I read most of time from my notes. Now, I pronounce pretty well. But I should improve still more as capture my listener’s attention, use more clear examples to illustrate my points or key findings and introduce more new words.


In conclusion, the writings that I have done this year It have helped me build a rhythm that I can use the rest of my life and some of my research. The growth I have done in the class has made me confident in my writing and it’s allowing me to get more comfortable with it. Above all in my blogger, It has given me courage to write creatively, show my personality, and express my ideas clearly. The blog at first too lazy to do it because it takes a lot of work but overall with It you have more practice and learning.  It is a useful tool learning to improve your level in English.

A formal E-mail.

to: John3@gmail.com

Dear Sir or Madam,

I am writing to complain about the marriage of my sister that we had in your wedding hall. We were there on 18th August and had invited 110 people.

The trouble began in the early arrival of the guests, approximately 9 o'clock pm. We had given instructions to your employees that at nine all had to be prepared, They were still preparing the tables at 9:30. We do not know the problems of their delays but this has made us understimate your services.

Firstly, I would like to point that is unacceptable for guests to wait for one hour to seat even though we had paid to be so comfortable with the guests not inside out. Secondly, many of the guests have left badmouthing wedding and this was not what we wanted.

To sum up, I hope that you will look into this weakness of your company. Moreover, I not recommend your services to anyone before that.

I look forward to your reply.

Yours faithfully,

Yousra Labsir

Dear Sir or Madam,

A am writing to you regarding the apalling situation currently occurring in Syria.

According your information that I read in a news, more than 250,000 syrians have lost their lives in four and a half years of armed conflict, which began with anti-government protests before escalating into a full-scale civil war. By June 2013, 90,000 people had been killed in the conflict ( most of them are innocent children).

All this is happening and no one is facing the government of President Bashar A-Assad the only thing that you do is some reunion to talk  about this conflict and nothing else. According to the article three of Human Rights, everyone has the right to life, liberty and security of person so syrian people also have this right.

I would appreciate It if you take into account what I are writting and will intervene to end this because the right of life applies to all humanity.

Yours Faithfully,

Yousra Labsir.

Japan to pay Fukushima worker cancer compensation



Japan's government has acknowledged that a worker involved in clean-up work at the Fukushima nuclear plant may have developed cancer as a result. 
Officials say that  the man will be entitled to compensation for work-related illness, in the first cancer case linked to the Fukushima plant meltdown

The man worked at the damaged plant for more than a year, and was exposed to a total of 19.8 millisieverts of radiation during that period. Three other workers are waiting to have their cancer cases assessed, but more than 45.000 people have worked there.

There’s an anti-nuclear mood in Japan nowadays due to the Fukushima accident, but despite opposition, the Prime Minister wants to restart the nuclear plants.

In conclusion, cancer is a really important and worrying item to talk nowadays. Ministers are only care about their interests rather than worrying about the human health and welfare. But why they should worry about us if we are to them as his subjects.

Dubai's elusive fog phenomenon



Skyscrapers of Dubai have become icons of a futuristic city. A few times a year, if you are in the right place at the right time, you can see the beautiful city become a futuristic city in the clouds because of the dense fog of the season. 

Seeing and capture the fog is so complicated. The rarely shown this fog is so thick you can not see the ground in front of you. It can appear in summer and winter, at any time of night air meets hot days and humid.

Dubai always has been one of my favorite cities, It's truly amazing. The architecture is just out-of-this-world. It looks like something from a science fiction. These landscapes don't  have any cost  in life, It would be my dream to go there.

Syria conflict: Aleppo ceasefire extended by three days



A truce in the Syrian city of Aleppo has been extended for three days.  The Syrian army announced a two-day truce on Wednesday, after two weeks of clashes left nearly 300 civilians dead.

The truce is part of international efforts to build on a wide-ranging ceasefire introduced in February. Russia has been supporting its allies in the Syrian government with air strikes since September 2015.

Reports indicate that the short truce brought respite to Aleppo residents. Aleppo, in north-west Syria, was the country's industrial and financial centre before the five-year civil war started.

Now,  where are the mass media and where are the minutes or hours of silence? I know why, Syria is not Paris or Belgium, It is only a  strategic place where nobody lives there. Or perhaps those who live there are not human like of Paris or Belgium? 
With this I don't want to create hate or anything but seeing videos and images of what is happening in this country gives me goosebumps because I see an inequality between humanity I think that everyone has the right to life, to security, to freedom and to enjoy peace.

How important is fidelity in a relationship?


Fidelity is an act of commitment and great maturity, regardless as we are, that is, our character, is not  an excuse to go for  life breaking hearts without thinking or satisfy your desires without thinking of the consequences (in case of men).

But I think when you really fall in love you can not be unfaithful, fidelity is part of love, respect who gives everything for you, when you fall in love you don't  see anyone else, there isn't  other more important person than person that you love him/her. The character to be faithful with the person you love or with other people around you, because noot only must be faithful in love but also in friendship between brothers, in work ...etc, that  It talks  a lot about your personality.


Finally, according to a article that I've read, faithfulness gives us personal identity, internal energy, self-esteem, dignity, honesty,harmony and therefore beauty.

Can love last forever? 


When love is true, there isn't  place in the heart for anyone else, Is beautiful love as well as it was conceived by God, love each other and share everything. But love eternal depends of both  when one of the two betrays trust is lost and love is broken  because distrust is the tomb of love.

I think that It  can last a lifetime if there allegiance and  details that make love grow but this has to be by two, if they share good and  bad moments  among them and if you love the person as he is,  I believe that love doesn't why have to disappear. But there who love hurts the beloved, there's that having received true love don't  know valued it. 
In  the moment when the couple felt loved and thought that his soulmate loved him too and now just feel disappointed and betrayed, she/he never again have confidence with him/her.
