JUNO


The Film:

"Juno" is an American film that focuses on the life of a young girl of 16 years old, who at her young age maintains an active sex life with her best friend Bleeker, Juno becomes pregnant by his best friend and faces one of the main problems of young people in the world who are parents at an early age.

In this film act Ellen Page as Juno, Michael Cera as Bleeker, Jason Bateman as Mark and Jennifer Garner as Vanessa and others, these last-mentioned are important characters in the story because when Juno realizes her pregnancy, she makes the decision to give her child up for adoption to someone, they really want and can take care of him, but to Juno won’t be easy to live this experience, because many things happen on the way to make you reflect and mature a bit childish and immature character.

This film has a very simple characterization because they are typical people who are involved in a very common problem so the recordings are made in an area as simple as possible, but its highly structured script and the performances of their authors
that make this movie as fun and successful.

The soundtrack of this film is centered on the music of Kimya Dawson and his two bands Antsy Pants and The Moldy Peaches, which was suggested by the actress Ellen Page.

With a favorable review and a couple of prize inside, I recommend this film that is specifically directed to families and to reflect an issue that concerns us all as acceptance, respect and affection for children.



Education:

In the movie "Juno" in education we can highlight many situations, since in this context can be seen that the protagonist has a strong character, which makes her a very rebellious girl yet carefree, living with his father and stepmother, we emphasize that Juno does not have a family or a mother teaching as a reference despite the concern of his father, also in the aspect of school life, Juno must suffer the stares of her classmates of those who watch derogatory and discriminatory manner, that is why you see a lack of education with young people in school. 




On the other hand we can see in the film that not only the protagonist has an active sex life but also the other characters in the story, which is because it shows a lack of information on the subject to deal with students and how to cope with the correctly with parents.

 The problem of education in the film shows family conflicts, social and student, so that education is an important issue because the lack of the general problems and conflicts in the lives of individuals and those around us by This is why education and understanding are key factors in the development of the life of a young man who gradually develops his consciousness.

Identifying topic sentences

In the following paragraphs, identify the topic sentence and the
key words in the topic sentence that the other sentences support.




  1.   John Bookmeyer is a versatile, well-rounded boy. In
addition to singing in his church choir, he is a drummer in a
small combo. He maintains a high average in his subjects at
school and still manages to play football and run on the track
team. Although he is very popular with other young people, he
doesn't let his social life interfere with his weekend job at the
drugstore.

Topic sentences: John Bookmeyer is a versatile, well-rounded boy  
Because this is a description of the person.

  2.   The first thing I noticed about the school was the litter
in the schoolyard. Trash and paper were scattered everywhere. The
building, which could have been very attractive despite its age,
was dingy and dirty beyond belief. A window -pane was broken out
of the main door, and the door itself led into a dark, for
bidding hall. As I walked down the hall, I noticed the messy
bulletin board and, in several places, writing on the wall. No
one greeted me when I entered the outer office, although a
receptionist was sitting there noisily chewing a huge wad of gum
and putting on fingernail polish. All in all. I couldn't help
feeling that the school was poorly cared for.

Topic senteces: the school was poorly cared for.
Because this is the principal idea.

  3.   Through the fog the arc lights high above the stadium
looked like small moons from the field below. The lights were
reflected all over the marshy field in pools of water, an
accumulation of twenty four hours of steady drizzle. Despite
lengthy warm-up drills, the players now felt the cold and
dampness beginning to penetrate. They were either huddled
together or dancing up and down to keep warm-- that is, all
except our first-string quarterback and our all-state offensive
end, both of whom were out of the game with injuries. They sat
glumly on the bench wrapped in soggy woolen blankets, Conditions
could hardly have been worse for this crucial game.

Topic sentence: the cold and dampness beginning to penetrate.

General Cemetery





During the period of the republic in the early 19th century, our country was immersed in a society that was slowly growing, and which showed how people started arriving from the countryside to the city to find jobs and get a better life with good economic stability. That's why Santiago began to fill with people over the years and, during that time, the economic difficulties remained a major problem for our society, which made the deaths become higher than today.

On September 11th, 1811 a priest named Juan Flores Pretes proposes to the Senate the idea of creating a public cemetery, which can help to clean up the city of bad smells and diseases because of the excess of decomposed bodies; most of them were in mass graves.
This project was finally approved, but it took ten years to be built and the choice of the place should have a favorable location for people and should be close to all. That's how the project takes place near Cerro San Cristobal.

On December 9th 1821, president Bernardo O'Higgins inaugurated one of the largest and most beautiful cemeteries in America, which has 86 acres of land with approximately 2 million dead, among them are many important people, like some presidents, people who defended the human rights, wealthy families with great power, and also not-so emblematic people.
Benjamin Vicuña Mackenna and many others helped Cementerio General to become more advanced in its construction, and develop the idea of creating a city for the death, with several streets, avenues and many trees, but the health problem in the 19th century was still there. This Sacred Place is now Recoleta.

It's known that the bodies that were buried in that place, especially those of the emblematic people and more affluent families, were buried with snow, because the body could be kept longer before breaking down. This lets us understand why in the old cemetery there are mausoleums, which are located at a shallow depth. In the other hand, the most important mausoleums are for the most important people. There you can see not only Chilean names, but also foreign people and ones with different ideologies. Among the mausoleums that we can highlight we find different architectonic styles like the Greeks, Egyptian, Romans, Arabs and Indo-American.

This City of the Dead was created right in the center of the capital because of a reason more important than the access to it: because there are different hospitals such as Hospital San José, J.J. Aguirre, the psychiatrist, the Faculty of Medicine of Universidad de Chile..., so the dead were buried immediately.

Another important place of Cementerio General is called “Muro de los detenidos desaparecidos”, which has the name of all the dead who were killed in Augusto Pinochet's government. This place is constantly visited by all the people who see that huge mural which has a great story.

This place is important for the country, because every grave, every space has great stories to be told, and this is appreciated in every corner of the cemetery.

Jessica was the next one to disappear while looking for a CD. Then the most scaried of the group called Nicole, opened a closet on the second floor and found the bodies of all her friends, murdered in cold blood.

What I think about marriage

I think that marriage is a beautiful way to link two people forever. The most important thing is the love and confidence because these factors are essential to the relationship.
At the moment, I don´t have a relationship and the marriage is not the most important thing in my life because I want other things for my future.

This picture is so beautiful and awesome because it`s a natural place with a highway, many buildings, skyscrapers and beautiful trees and a big range of mountains.



It`s a very horrible place. In this picture you can’t see very well because it`s full smog and is very polluted  and it`s full of buildings.
