Zero Conditional

The Dark Night Coment

I think it is about the joker asking the criminals a payment to kill the Batman, he thinks that he has the power to finish with the Batman with his own abilities. So the jokers give the criminals a proposal to take away the Batman forever.

My Opinion about the song “SHOUT” of Michael Jackson

I think the song is different from the others that many people are accustomed, it is kind of rap for me, but it does not mind that a didn´t liked. I like the message, because for me he talks about a future world that we supposed to be apart, but I think we are now in this disorder, because right now we are killing each others.

Specially I like this line “Kids are murdering other kids for the fun of it”

Use the concept discipline into my story of Sookie Stackhouse

The concept of discipline means, in general, that a person is to have a constant order with himself and with the law.

In my story the concept of discipline shows up with the protagonist Sookie, because like I said Sookie is a telepath, so because of this she has the power on the peoples thoughts, with this ability Sookie have to be responsible with the information that she gets from the people. When Sookie is at work, she uses a lot the concept of discipline, because she has to be careful and put attention with the words that people say with their mouth or with their thoughts, because like everybody Knows the people’s thoughts are private and Sookie doesn´t have the right to invade and exhibit their thoughts. In general the protagonist proves how a person can have a constant order with herself and with other people and how a person can use the concept of discipline in every moment in her life.

Another way in which my story explains the concept of discipline is with the commitment that a person has when they read a book, a person who loves to read proves that they have a lot of discipline, because they show order when they read in a constant way, so I think this is a god way to try and use the concept of discipline in their lives.

1. How to avoid problems about nationalism in México

Situation

Many Mexicans believe that privatizing the oil is like losing their autonomy and if that is said by a foreigner it is worst.

Possible solution

Hey man, if you let me tell you something about Pemex, I would tell you that in USA we believe that it would be better for you to privatize oil, but tell me what you think, because you are the most interested and you are inside of the problem.

2. Respect

Situation is

In México people respect their mom’s and sister’s a lot, but with a sister they respect and protection is even more, so in a party they always are watching who talks to her and pay attention in what someone said to her.

Solution or Advice

First ask if her brother is in the party? Then if he was, do not dance to close with the girl, also do not say bad words and finally introduce yourself to the brother very politely.
