NOISES

Hi there!
I must thank Iris and Desirée for their comments. It's a pleasure that you read my blog ♥

This new unit at school deals with the topic of noise and we have been talking about those noises that seem unbearable and really bothering for us. As I told you in class, I can't stand the noise of the tram at night. In addition, I can hear the voice of a woman welcoming the passengers to "Tranvía de Zaragoza"!!! It's as if I lived at the tram stop. Horrible, I promise.

But, I know there are more terrible noises that often make people lose their temper. I have been investigating and the result is that during the history of humanity, at least the history that has been recorded somewhere, there have been noises that have become "the loudest noises" ever. 

1. Rock concerts. The level of decibels is really worrying! 
2. Fireworks. At this point I may say that I hate them. I find them unnecessary and, sure, they are extremely dangerous for our hearing.
3. Gunfire. No words to explain this. Just imagine...
4. Space shuttle launch. WOW! This must be so shocking...

5. The blue whales. You are reading well. Researchers agree that they emit a sound of more than 180 decibels and it travels underwater.

6. Earthquakes. That's true. The quantity of noise provoked may be impossible to quantify.

I have taken all this info from this page:  http://listverse.com/2007/11/30/top-10-loudest-noises/
You may find more loud noises, as I have selected only 6. The most shocking for me.

I wish you a nice Sunday evening and...see you tomorrow!!!

Oh, la, la!!! ;)

Bonjour mes élèves!
It's been ages since I haven't written a line here. The reason is that I am extremely overwhelmed with many things, but...I am ready to start over and dedicate some minutes to make you learn a bit of English.
Today, I am pleased to announce that apart from teaching English, I am going to teach another language: le français. I feel very excited as I love all languages but French is one of my favourite ones.



French is a nice language. I really enjoy listening to someone speaking French. It seems so romantic and musical! The good news is that it is similar to Spanish in many aspects. In others, they are veeery different, unfortunately. I hope I can attract your attention in French as well as I try to do in English.

I have come across a video in French about one of my addictions: coffee. As I work so many hours, I need to overcome the day and Je bois du café trois ou quatre fois quelques jours. I know it's not very healthy but...my body begs me drinking coffee!!
I hope you like the video...it's really representative.

Bisous!
