  1. a) I disagree, because today, there shouldn't have any diference between the education of boys and girls, this kind of things is too awful, in this days everybody is the same, have all the same rights.

    b) No way, the enviroment is more important than the tecnology, because the enroment provents medicines and other important things.

    c) I agree, because they have lot more money than the other nations, and human beens should always help others human beens tah are needing.

    d) I agree and disagree on the same time, I agree that you shouldn't give money every time, because it encorages them not to work, but give just in some days and to people that really need, I think tah is right.

  4. a)I disagree, I don't understand why people want boys and grils to have diferent education.Boys and girls can learn easily so I don't think the students should have diferent education.
    b)I disagree, the progress is important, of course but the enviroment is important too, if there isn't trees we wouldn't breathe.
    c)I agree.If they are rich they would help the poor people.
    d)Well I don't think people should give them money, but whatt they need(food and things like that).With money they can buy drugs and alcohol.Beatriz

  5. a)I disagree, because nowadays, people don't have any diference both respect and rights as well as in education.

    b)The progress is important for the social development of people, but if we don't protect the environment, the society and the planet will not exist in a few years. So protecting the planet is the most important thing to think today.

    c)I agree. The rich nations have more money, jobs and more quality of life to ofeer to people.

    d)I agree, because when you give money to people on the street, they will always be there waiting for more money, and you never know in what these people are going to spend the money. So it's better to give food and say if they work, it will be better for them.

  6. a)I totally disagree,both boys ang girls are humans so I think that we must have equal education so that we can learn more with our differences.
    b)I think that without environment we can't have any progress,so we have to protect it and think in new ways to create technologies that don't damage the environment.

  8. A) I disagree, we shoudn't treat in diffent ways, we all have the same rights, more than this because in the future the jobs won't be separete for womans and mans.

    B) I disagree because without the environment we can creat lots of necessary things, like petroleum to make plastic, I wish the humans weren't so selfish.

    C)I agree because if Africa is so devasted and poor the reason in that the european settlers stole all the good things and dind't help them. I'd like to be more useless about this kind of bad situation.

    D) Depends of the case, because there are so many people that still strong but they are so lazy that they pretend to be sick. And in another cases the person can't work, because they are really sick or old, and the government doesn't help.

  9. a) I disagree. Because both us need to have the equal education, in order to have no big differences in the future.

    b) I agree but disagree to. Because we get used to take care of the two things.

    c) I totally agree. They'r so rich, why would they need more money? Help the ones that need is the mos correct thing to do in this case.

    d) I agree and desagree. Because when they ask your for money to buy food (at least, its what they tell you), they can use the money to buy drugs or to give for some other person. But when you buy something like a sandwich, you can be sure that they won't do something else with the sandwich.

  10. a) I desagree with this idea because today girls and boys can have an equal education and the same desenvolvement in their professionals life.
    b)Thats an absurd idea! If the people do that the global warming would get bad and the people die.
    c) I agree, thats a good idea! with all the rich nations help the poor ones many problems would be solved (like the poor and hungry) and the desenvolvment of the world would be better.
    d) Thats not a good idea. with the people give them a job or one diferent oportunity to study they would have a better future and it would be better for everyone.

  12. a) I disagree. Because both has the same capacity to learn things and the school have to join them to make a society more interactive.

    b) It's true that people wants to progress more and more. But we can't forget the environment in any way! So and agree and disagree.

    d)I agree. We shouldn't give money to them because they have to fight for them own money and go up on their lifes.

  17. I agree.Because if all the days you give a money of the people on the street,he don't need working.They can more money do nothing than a people who working all the days.The people who live in the street can use the money for buy a drugs,and don't help your family with food how they said for you.

  19. a) I absolutely disagree, because both have the same intelectual capacity.
    b) I disagree, because if the idea of progress is to explore the environment like it's infinite, this kind of program would never work, because soon or later there won't be more nature to explore.
    c) I agree. Nowadays it's much easier to do considering the globalization and the integration between countries.
    d) I thinks there are other ways to help people instead of it, because it really encourages people to stay on the street.

  21. a)I agree, because both are different kinds, girls are boring and care about things boys don´t, they rather boring classes with stupid taechers. Boys like funny classes, with nice teachers. That´s why the both can´t have the same education, they would learn better separated.

    b)I agree, nowadays the tecnology is more important than the enviromment, but without it the world as we know wouldn´t exist.

    c)I agree, the richer nations should help the poor ones, but doing this they would be butting in them business, if nobady here remember this created a lot of wars!

    d)I disagree, sometimes is very good to help somebody on the streets. Maybe those persons didn´t had the same oportunity than our parents or us. In my opinion, they really should look for a job and a better life, sometimes its difficult but come on!
