PRACTICE 1

THE PROCESS OF ACADEMIC WRITING. PREWRITING

NARROWING:
-Technology: Wrong use of social media → Childs using phones from a young age → When should kids be introduced to technology?
-Parties: Alcohol and drug intake → Minors at parties → The effects of being exposed to alcohol and drugs from a young age

BRAINSTORMING:

LISTING:
-Fashion: 
⇒Following trends
⇒History of clothes
⇒Fast fashion

FREEWRITING:
-Racism: 
For some, racism is not as big a problem as it used to be but from my point of view, it's still present in our everyday life. It's true that, supposedly, there's no segregation, exploitation camps, or slavery but the rise of fascist parties is making people blame non-white people for issues like a crisis, the lack of jobs, or crime. These people are guided by blind hatred, leading to more and more racism daily.

CLUSTERING:




ASKING QUESTIONS:
-Literature:
➭What is considered a good text?
➭How does one start writing?
➭What are the most important pieces of literature to keep in mind?

MUSIC
⇰Describing: Music is too broad, there are many genres and opinions about it.
⇰Comparing: This topic can be compared to 'Cinema' since both have many fans and types of songs that could be compared to movies.
⇰Associating: Music reminds me of how different people are depending on what kind of music they listen to.
⇰Analyzing: The impact of music on society, and how human rights are approached by them.

⇰Arguing: As an advantage, you can learn history from how music has changed over the years.
As a disadvantage, music has caused political and ideological differences between people.

Imagen
  DESCRIPTIVE PARAGRAPH BRAINSTORMING: What does this picture make me feel? : I feel sad but also angry and furious. Why do I feel like that? : Because I feel like it's not fair that this man has to leave his family because of a war where he has nothing to do. What produces this feeling in me? : The fact that such old things as wars are still going on even though it's proven that they're useless. When watching this image all I can think of is how there are two lives being torn apart right in front of the eyes of the entire world. Wars are often filled with numbers, the number of people that have died, that have survived but when we see them in the flesh that's a different thing, seeing this couple saying what may be their last goodbye is sad and so is the fact that none of them chose to be part of this war. I also feel furious because of the injustice that's happening, thinking that you could lose a family member or a friend to war, to something pointless makes me i...

T17: A good friend

For instance, there are those that you only salute when you see each other at a party, friends from your childhood whom you do not talk to as often as you would like to but whenever you see them it seems like not a single day has gone by since you last saw them, and then there are good friends. A good friend is someone who is always there, through thick and thin. They always have the best intentions and even though you may not talk to each other every day, it is not necessary because you know that your bond can't ever be broken. I am lucky enough to say that I have many good friends that make my days worthwhile and I am proud of that because what kind of friends you have also says something about yourself.
