Paper

Hi friends:

Well thanks to Elias and my usual bad luck, I will write “about paper”, and that’s exactly what was wrote on the paper, so I’m going to speak of every kind of what we usually called “paper”.
First of all, the most basic thing that we (like humans) call paper is the simple, common and ordinary piece of paper. This extraordinary human’s creation is essential in our lives and is made by cellulose; we use this sheet to draw or to write something on it.
The second term that Elias could mean is the paper, like the informal form to say the newspaper. This is a mean of communication that we can read to inform us, in Chile there are a lot of papers, some of them very funny like “La Cuarta” or “The Clinic”.
Also paper can mean the documents of the people that are using to identify us. But the thing that I don’t think that Elias wanted that anyone write about is the especially meaning that this paper had regarding to the academic article.

So thanks to Elias, we had this minute of culture, and in a few minutes we find the different meaning that a simple word like “paper” can have. This work makes appear this simple question…¿How many different senses are hiding in the words that we use every day? 

See you!

Pride & Prejudice

Hello!

Today I’m going to write about one of my favorites books in the world: “Pride & Prejudice”. This is a novel made by Jane Austen that was published for the first time on 1813, is a very interesting 19th century England romantic story.
I like this book since I was 13 years old. I have read it like eight times, but always, at the final part of the book it came to me this strange feeling that I don’t want to finish it, so sometimes I went back to the beginning and I start it again.
Basically the story is based on the Elizabeth Bennet’s world, her education, the marriage in that period, the society that surrounds her and the most important: the relationship that Elizabeth have with Mr. Darcy. This man at the beginning was a proud cold man, and because of that Elizabeth started to hate him. But in the course of the history Lizzy understand the true nature of Darcy, and with a series of events they finally fall in love. The most beautiful of the history is that they have this kind of pure that I think that we all dream.

An interesting website


Hi friends:

Well, today I’m going to speak about a website that I actually like very much. This website is www.museodeodontologia.cl. This is the website of the most important museum about dentistry in Chile. Together, the museum and the website are a project of the University of Chile about dentistry’s patrimonial legacy that has been having the University since the last century.

The website has six different sections:
1-      The museum, here you can know about the museum history, and the most interesting is that in this section you can see many pictures about the museum’s collection.
2-      Projects, you can identify different plans of the museum, that they were involved at the past (like the toothbrush’s festivity) and know about projects in the future.
3-      Publications, these are the documents of the projects, so here you can have the detailed descriptions of these plans.
4-      Gallery, here are videos and photos of the educations projects of the museum
5-      Links
6-      Contact

Well I visited this website when I went to the museum, and I like it very much because you can have the explanation of what you saw at the place. I recommend you this website because it’s very enjoyable, even in the page you can see four videos of “31 minutes” that are very funny and educative.


BYEE!
