I would talk to him trying to convince him not to cheat more in the exams and help him to study more before important exams. Also, if he continues cheating he will change and he will be hypocritical and I wouldn't be his friend anymore.
2nd)
First of all, I don't like going into people's issues. So if she thinks that she's doing well, she should know.

My gap-year
First of all, if I had enough time, I would like to go to all places in the world, but there's a place that I've kept dreaming about travelling there since I was a child. This place is Hawaii. But, why have I chosen Hawaii? Because I really like Hawaii's landscape; the Pacific Ocean, and its culture.
What would I learn? I would like to learn alot of things in Hawaii, but specially surfing and swimmming underwater to observe the coral reef. And obviously, I would like to practice and improve my English. Also, I would like to learn a lot of things about Hawaii's culture and traditions like moai and firebreather.
What would I eat? In Hawaii, there's a lot of exotic food, but there are three meals that I'm sure I will love if I can taste them. These are ''lomi lomi'', wich are made with vegetables adn beef, ''kalbi ribs'' made with shark rib and traditional vegetables of Hawaii, and finally; ''lau lau''' made with pig meat wrapped with ''taro'' sheet.

Dilemmas
What would you do?
- You have noticed your best fri8end cheating in an end of term exam. A lot of teens cheat, but you and your friend have always been against it, up to now. What would you do?
I would talk to my friend and ask him:Why did he cheat on the exam? Maybe he didn't prepare well for the exam? But in any case it wouldn't be something about which he was angry, just surprised.
- Your sister has a boyfriend and one day she asks you to answer the phone and tell her boyfriend she's ill and that she can't go out that Saturday night. You know she's planning to meet another boy that night. What would you do?
I would ask her if something had happened between her and her boyfriend, about which she was angry with her boyfriend and he still doesn't know about his anger? And if so, I would advise her to talk to him. And if that isn't the case, I would advise her not to do it.
- You are completely against smoking. Your brother asks you to bring him a carton of cigarettes from the Duty Free Shop when you go to London next week so that he can save some money. What would you do?
I don't know what I would bring, not only because I am against smoking, but also because taht hurts. I would advise him to quit smoking, although he may not pay attention, he would still try.

A Foreigner in Britain
- Write about what you’ve learned from the story.
A Foreigner in Britain is a good book specially if you want to get some
information of an English city or village and have a nice and organized trip.
I have learned that even though London is known as a very modern and
cosmopolitan city, it is also very traditional. For example, one of
the most distinctive traditions that we can find is the afternoon tea. At
around four o'clock, everyone in London tends to prepare a good cup of
tea at their homes or goes to a tearoom to enjoy a variety of teas and atmospheres.
On the other hand, London has a great mixture of cultures and its diversity
is what makes it a very special city. People from almost every part of
the world live there and, if eating different types of food is what you like
to do, going to London is the first thing you should do. For instance, Indian
food is especially popular and it is very easy to find good indian restaurants
around the city. Another example of its diversity is the Caribbean carnival.
This carnival takes place towards the end of August, in an area of London
called Notting Hill, where people of all cultures gather around to dance
Caribbean music, taste different foods, and overall to have a great time.
Lastly, I have also discovered that the townspeople and the Oxford
university students haven’t got on well with each other for more than 600
years because of a fight that began between two drunken students and a
tavern owner that finished with hundreds of students and townspeople deaths.
Description of Barcelona
I live in Barcelona, wich is an important city in Catalonia, Spain. It has a population
of over 1,609 million people.

My hometown is Bogota, Colombia. Known for “El cerro de Montserrate”, the most
famous lookout of the city, for being the capital of the country, and a lot of differents
points of interest like the famous restaurant “Andrés carne de res”. Bogota is a big
city, very traditional and full of nature.

The weather in Barcelona is very hot and humid in Summer, cold in winter and
warm in Spring and Autumn but normally, the weather is sunny.
warm in Spring and Autumn but normally, the weather is sunny.
It’s one of the most touristic cities because of its Mediterranean gastronomy, its
famous architecture and its history and culture. A few of the most important artists
lived here. Antoni GaudÃ, famous for his builidings and different structures like
“La Sagrada FamÃlia”; Joan Miró, the most famous painter of the city; Monteserrat
Caballé, one of the greatest sopranos of the twentieth century.

What I like best about Barcelona is that it has a lot of things to do and places to go,
and it has a very efficient and cheap public transport. When I’m bored of the city I
can go to, for example, the Montserrat’s mountain because is very close of the city.
