ST. PETER'S BASILICA


Saint Peter's Basilica is situated in the centre of Vatican. It was built in differents etaps. All the Popes are buried there. The basilica is made of white stone. From the outside it is a big building. Inside, it has got a nice atmosphere. The pillars and the dome are good shapes. I've visited the cathedral six or seven times now, and the things which I like best are the nice and very big dome.

GIVING ADVICE

Dear Carles

One of my friends has started acting quite strangely. She’s always looking for money and she sometimes misses school. She’s going out with a guy, Steve, who I don’t know very well. Steve doesn’t speak to me when the three of us are together and he looks at me very angrily.
I don’t really know what’s happening. What’s your advice?

Clare



Dear Clare

If I were you, I would be worried about this. It’s a very complicated situation. Obviously, you should talk to them as quickly as possible. You must speak honestly to them and tell them that you are worried. Can it be that you have made something that they didn’t like?

MY OPINION

Hi people
I agree with Cesc, Comalat and Xavi becose I think that learn with the computer is very important. I think too that speaking it's very important for learn english. See films is very interesting and funny becouse we never see the films in English. The speakings are great for me. I don't like novel's exams and film's exams.
Good byee!!
Carles
