Power of Imatges


In this photo you can see a polar bear beeing happy. The bear is white and a little bit brown.
It is in a little iceberg, watching the sea patienlly. You can see it is smiling because is happy.
In background you can see a big one white iceberg, At the bottom you can see clarity water. 
It's a very interesting scene because the polar bear is smiling.
This photo is paceful it transmits relaxing thaughts.  If you can see this photo transmits a message, water is clarity so it transmits loyal and truth. In the backgraund are a big one iceberg and it is white and white transmits pure. The bear is quiet but can be aggresive and it mean dangerous.
So the meaning of that is the bear is pure and loyal but it can be aggresive and dangerous so don't disturb a quiet bear.

News- Gold under water


About 1.3 million dollars’ worth of treasure has been recovered from a shipwreck in the Atlantic Ocean.
A deep-ocean exploration company in Florida says it has recovered nearly 1,000 ounces (28.3 kilograms) of gold from the ship which had 21 tons of gold aboard at the time of its sinking in 1857. The dive confirmed the ship had not been disturbed since 1991 when another company stopped recovery work.
“During the first reconnaissance dive, we actually picked up several gold items. We had five gold bars that totalled 1,000 ounces in weight. We also picked up two mid-1800s 20 dollar gold pieces.”
The two $20 Double Eagle coins discovered are said to fetch an average of $5,000 from collectors.
The sinking, caused by a hurricane off the coast of South Carolina, sparked a huge financial crisis in America, dubbed the Panic of 1857, which lasted several years.
Difficult words: treasure (valuable things like gold), reconnaissance (recovery), dubbed (named)

BERLIN

We went to Berlin in Holly Week and was fantastic, we visited  lot of places; consentration camp, museums -a lot of museums-. 
We walked a lot and we were very tired. The food was normal exept for dinner! I HATE that food!! Was horrible, always with this stupid sauce, and "Kartoffel"(potatos). The meat was horrible too. 
My favorite place was Alexander Platz. This place was wonderful.
We went a Turkish neighborhood  for lunch something, normally if you go in Turkish neighborhood you eat a Kebab or something like that, but no, my group and I ate a pizza! Maybe we are strange or maybe we are more intelligent than others. 
My favorite museum was about ancient civilisations. There was Nefertiti's bust, was amazing, I love that, another museum near  "Nefertiti's bust museum" there was a Greek temple and there was represented "Titanomaquia" .
We went to diferents museums who honored Jewish. We went to consentration camp, was good. 
We visited a lot of munuments too.

MAUTHAUSEN

Last week we went to a talk, they explain us their experiencies there in Catalonia.
Their fathers were republicans and they fought in the civil spanish war, but they losed the war. 
They fathers scaped to France but when they scaped to french started 2nd World War, but France knew there were a lot of catalans there and told to Spain what they should do with these catalans, Spain told they "there aren't  Spainsh people out of Spain" so Germany caught the catalans and put they in consentration camps because nobody want them. 
A lot of catalan people died in these consentration camps. 
One man brounght one of his father's letter, but he can't read the letter because he was so moved. 
An other man told us he knew his father's dead three or four years after it happen like the other man.
They visited the consentration camp a lot of times, and they know wich oven were burn they fathers. 
In my opinion this told was to emotive it's horrible what  a lot of people felt in cocentration camps, it isn't humanity.

Romeo and Juliet reflexions

Question 1. SETTING:Places Where does the classical play and the new version take place? Example: Verona vs Verona Beach . Where are they? Which century?
The classical play take place in Verona,Italy, on fourteenth century.
 And the new version  take place in Verona Beach, USA is a parody of typical city near sea in 80' more or less. 

Question 2.IMAGERY: metaphors & images :
WATER (swimming pool, beach, aquarium...) and FIRE (petrol station, fights...)
DAY and NIGHT, the MOON. What do they mean?

These metaphors and images like swimming pool, aquarium make a pacefull and romantic atmosphere these atmospheres are when Romeo and Juliet are together because they are happy and in love. But when  Tybalt die are rainnig so the rain symbolize tears, Romeo are scared because Tybalt is dead and he killed him. 
Thunderstorm appers when Mercutio die and it means a change because after this start the destrucion.
The fire, petrol station... symbolize danger always appears in fights when there are a lot of action. It can symbolize death like night, but the moon symbolize secrets because Romeo and Juliet talked on night. 

Question 3.LANGUAGE. Which characters speak in verse and which in prose? Who is the narrator?
The characters who speak in verse are Romeo and Juliet princpally but Benvolio, Tybalt and Mercutio speak in verse too.
The other characters speak in prose are the other charcaters.

Question 4. THE FANCY DRESS PARTY.What's the role of the costumes?
The role of the costumers :Juliet is a angel and symbolize innocence.Romeo is a Knight and simbolize brave and protecion, Lady Capulet is cleopatra and  simbolize power and beauty.
Lord Capulet is Ceaser and symbolize power and dictadure.
Mercutio is a  "travesti" and symbolize the show and peace.
Tyblat is a demon and symbolize the devil.
Paris is a astronaut and symbolize he is always in the moon

Question 5. ELEMENTS. To make the new version, basic elements have been changed. Example: swords for gun
They change a lot of elements like: the party costumers for the masks party
the Prince of Verona for the sherif
the cars from the horses and a lot of things more.
  
Question 6. Other differences of the classical version and the film version
The classical version isn't comical and is more serious but in the film version is more comical, for example Mercutio is a showman, Paris in the classical version is intelligent and in the film version is a little bit silly. 
The friar lawrance is strange. He isn't a normal friar, he is a modern friar

Love song- Taylor Swift

We were both young when I first saw you.- Tots dos erem joves quan et vaig veure
I close my eyes and the flashback starts:   Tanco els meus ulls i els flaixbacs començen
I'm standing there on a balcony in summer air. - Estic aqui al balcó amb l'aire d'estiu

See the lights, see the party, the ball gowns. -mira les llums,mira la festa, mira els vestits de gala

See you make your way through the crowd- miro com camines fent pas enmig d ela gent
And say, "Hello,"- I dius "hola
Little did I know... -has fet una cosa petita ho sé



That you were Romeo, you were throwing pebbles,-  Estaves aqui Romeo, Estaves tirant pedretes 
And my daddy said, "Stay away from Juliet" - I el meu papa va dir " Allunya't de la Juliet"
And I was crying on the staircase  - I estava plorant a les escales
Begging you, "Please don't go" - et vaig suplicar " Siusplau no t'envagis "
And I said...  I vaig dir....



Romeo, take me somewhere we can be alone. -Romeo, portem a algun lloc on podem estar sols

I'll be waiting; all that's left to do is run. - Estaré esperarnt, tot tot el que queda per fer és córrer

You'll be the prince and I'll be the princess, -  Sigues el meu príncep, jo seré la teva princesa
It's a love story, baby, just say, "Yes." - És una història d'amor, "estimat", només digues "si"



So I sneak out to the garden to see you. - Em vaig escapar a fora al jardí per veure't
We keep quiet 'cause we're dead if they knew - Nosaltres vam estar quiets perquè si ho sabien estàvem morts 
So close your eyes... escape this town for a little while. - Tanca els ulls, escapa d'aquest poble per una estona
Oh, oh. Oh, Oh



'Cause you were Romeo – I was a scarlet letter, Perque tu eres en Romeo- Era un estigma
And my daddy said, "Stay away from Juliet." - I el meu papa va dir " Allunya't de la Juliet"
But you were everything to me, -Però tu ho eres tot per mi 
I was begging you, "Please don't go." -et vaig suplicar " Siusplau no t'envagis "
And I said...  I vaig dir....




Romeo, take me somewhere we can be alone.  Romeo, portem a algun lloc on podem estar sols
I'll be waiting; all that's left to do is run.  Romeo, portem a algun lloc on podem estar sols
You'll be the prince and I'll be the princess. Sigues el meu príncep, jo seré la teva princesa
It's a love story, baby, just say, "Yes." És una història d'amor, "estimat", només digues "si"



Romeo, save me, they're trying to tell me how to feel. Romeo salva'm, ells esta intentant dir-me com tinc de sentir
This love is difficult but it's real. L'amor es difícil però és real 

Don't be afraid, we'll make it out of this mess. No t'espantis, ho farem fora d'aquest embolic

It's a love story, baby, just say, "Yes."  És una història d'amor, "estimat", només digues "si"



Oh, oh. Oh, Oh



I got tired of waiting Estic cansada d'esperar

Wondering if you were ever coming around. Estria sorpresa si tornessis 

My faith in you was fading   La meva fe en tu s'esvaïa
When I met you on the outskirts of town.  Quan et vaig conèixer als afores del poble
And I said. I vag dir



"Romeo, save me, I've been feeling so alone. Romeo salva'm, Em sento molt sola
I keep waiting for you but you never come. T'estic esperant però tu mai vens
Is this in my head? I don't know what to think."  És al meu cap? No sé què pensar
He knelt to the ground and pulled out a ring and said...  Ell es va agenollar a terra i va treure un anell i va dir ...



"Marry me, Juliet, you'll never have to be alone. Casa't amb mi Juliet, mai tindràs que estar sola
I love you, and that's all I really know. T'estimo i això és el que sé del cert
I talked to your dad – go pick out a white dress Vaig parlar amb el teu pare- treu fora el vestit blanc
It's a love story, baby, just say, "Yes." És una història d'amor, "estimada", només digues "Sí" 



Oh, oh, oh, oh, oh. Oh,oh,oh,oh,oh


'Cause we were both young when I first saw you.   Tots dos erem joves quan et vaig veure

I think this song explain basiclly Romeo and Juliet but is a little bit different for example: her parents want this marriage (at finally) and in the story no. 
I like this song is beauty and romantic.
