Test and Open Task

New technology in students academic
Thursday April 28
Has technology affected students and their sports performance?

Now a days, the techonology has been an equipment for sports, because it has been growing day by day making a chance in the training, helping the students to make better their physical and movement performance. Not also in sports has been a help, also in academic grades.

Technology these days is everywhere, there's no place were you are disconnected from it, now that the school is using this as a tool to teach better to their students, some of them aren't benefited by these changes, the tools are harder to use and the use of the brain memory isn't practiced at all, making the students addictive to this tool because of the need to an easier way to solve their problems. They are using a tool were with only a few clicks you got the correct answer. By doing this students forget the structure of the assigment, if you ask them to do it without the tool, they won't be able enough to do it or get the correct answer.  But in a certain way, now the technology is something that you must know how to use, if you wanna do something big or to get somewhere you wanna go to, to make everything easier and to not fail in something that you can do right, only clicking a couple of buttons and without stressing yourself because you don't get the correct answer. This is also happening in sports where now, for example in rugny, you get like a robot that moves in all directions and you have to tackle him, or in the t-shirt you have a chip that knows how much you run, your heart conditions and a lot of things more. The main use of technology is to make your life easier and that is passing to sports, now you can know more about what you do in the game or, how you can get better results by training with technology tools.

Finally, the technology is being a big part of our life, helpins¿g us to upgrade our things and not to affect us by using those tools, only to get off from problems that could be fixed by some clicks and in a minor time.

Section B

Today I was on my way home, listening to music on Spotify and a song of Jim Morrison was on my list, and in the photo appeared a phrase of him that said ¨Whoever controls the media, controls the mind¨, and I remembered that you used to say that phrase every time you were on the internet.

Somehow, this phrase has a lot to think of because technology now adays is basically everything. A lot of people got persuaded with the information that is on the website, and not everything you see is true. The power that a website can have is impressive, the people can be famous for only uploading a video. A lot of things can change on the website and the fake information is everywhere, it can make you think a whole different way than the real information. For example, you create Spotify and upload a playlist, by the name of the genre but you are wrong about the genre, now the people that listens to that playlist would think that that is the genre, but they will be wrong. You can play with their mind and make them think a different thing because they saw it on the internet and they think that they can trusty in every thing they see.

By telling you this I hope they make a change and don't believe or make other people believe everything they see on social media.

Speech

Dear fellows,

I summon today all of you, because the past days we have suffered hunger and over hard work, from our leader Napoleon. Tell me if I am wrong by saying this by part of all of us but we have to make a change on our farm and topple Napoleon.

Since we start our farm, bad things were happening every day, new rules were appearing and we are suffering a lot since then. First, when we suffer a insufficiency of food they want us to eat eggs of the chicken, but they refuse to do it and they hide from the pigs, by the night they threw all the eggs and broke them, a few day by then, the pigs told us they have captured the chickens and already kill them, by saying this, they create a new law, basically basing on the perfidy to all of us by refusing an order from the pigs. Second, they have us on a every day hard work, so we can rebuild the farm which was destroy with dinamite by the humans as we notice, Boxer was the one who put more effort in this assignment and never give up from doing it, which this give him consequences of health, with an insufficient of oxygen and a over work in his muscles, they tell him that they would sent him to a doctor so he can recover from the injury and health, but they finally lie to him and sent him to a slaughterhouse.

All animals fell down in their tricks, by brainwashing and make us feel like they were doing something good to us but they take advantage of our weakness and take our rations of food, they sleep in beds, basically acting worse than the humans. We didn't follow the old majors law, all the laws were change by Napoleon, making them good for the pigs but bad for us, changing all the concept of the Major, taking advantage of their power, by realizing this maybe if we were still with the farmer, we would be a lot better, boxer and the chickens will still be alive, our food would be better and we wouldn't have to work everyday.

By saying this, we have to take over the power and live a normal life and not under the laws that only qualified for the pigs, and that shouldn't disqualified us, we all have the same feelings and we all have a bit of freedom to be us and to do what we like.

Letter Correction

Dear Hassan,

I'm writing this letter to you because i'm feeling sad and guilty about the revenge I did when we were young, since that day have never seen each other again and I always think about it, because we were really good friends. It was a moment of anger and jealously, which take me to an action really stupid, but I though it would be better so I could make something to feel happy about it, but it didn't do anything, it only make it worst and not only affect me, ask Baba, who was impressed about the decision your father made, that was leaving the house in such a surprising way, that hit so hard to my father, by the relationship your father and Baba when they were young.

This revenge, did not finish the way I expected, I just want to do something that could fix the way I was feeling because of the way that Baba treated me. By that moment I really didn't care about the decision your father make, I thought it would be better, so Baba could pay more attention to me and recognize what I'm trying to do to make him proud and make him feel good of what he did and taught me. Since those days, I started my education here in America, and I got a good grade in the college, but by the past of years I start feeling bad about of me, so I didn't care about being a doctor because of Baba dream, I take seriously the role of been a science-fiction writer, it was what I want and it's the only thing that makes me happy, instead of being a doctor, something that I wouldn't be happy at all. This is what I want to be and I'm gonna take it seriously, Baba accepted to what I want and support me with this, so I start writing to make it official. By the pass of the days, I meet the daughter of our general here in America and at the moment I know her, it call my attention and since that day I went to met her and I saw her reading a book, I told her, I was a Science-Fiction writer and that someday I'll bring her a book of myself so she could see how I was writing, so I, came back one day, to gave her the book I promise her the other day, she take a look at it and seems that she like how it looks by the smile on her face but in that moment, the general appears, he take a look at the book and he throw it away and put his hand in my shoulder and told me it wasn't good what I was doing, that I should go back with Baba.
By the pass of the days, I saw the daughter of the general coming to my way and in her hands, I could see that she was holding my book, when she got right next to me, she told me that she love the book and I was a great writer, since that day we star dating, and she help me with my science-fiction novels. This past week, Baba start feeling sick and more decrepit but always with his powerful attitude that he can do everything, but we always help him in what it's harder for him, but we hope he gets better, so we can see each other again. Finally, my dear friend, I hope you get this letter soon, hope to see you soon and talk about all the things that happen since the last time I saw you, maybe one of this day I go these day I will go to visit my special friend and revive the old times.

Greetings 

Amir.

Rationale Correction

The main focus of this letter is about the regret of Amir because of the revenge he made to Amir, trying to solve that problem and to not ruin their friendship, also telling him about what was going on in his head when he did that type of revenge to Hassan and that he felt guilty and stupid about it. In the next paragraphs, I wrote about the life of Amir in America, what he was doing and when he met his love, or in another word, his current wife. 
The letter is based in the "mission" to reunite the friendship between Amir and Hassan, but it could be easily read or understood by any reader. This letter as we can see, is obviously to Hassan, his old friend that separate from his life when the father of Hassan decided to leave the house.
This mainly letter is based in different chapter of the book but always focused in Amir and his life, basically, telling his life in America and the regret of the act to Hassan, trying to fix it and to get in touch with his old friend.
