My Favorite Food

Hello to all, today I'm going to talk about my favorite food, "Porotos granados". I like a lot because they have a good taste thanks to the corn which has been harvested in the season, I like the mix of flavor between the beans and corn, in addition to the other ingredients, like squash, onion and basil leaves.

I eat this meal in the summer, usually in the house of my grandparents, my grandmother can cook this dish very well, and is just in the summer when it starts the harvest of corn, fundamental ingredient for this preparation. My mom and my aunt also can cook this dish. Unfortunately I do not know to cook this food, or any other.

In addition to this dish of season (the rest of the year there are only frozen corn), there are other foods that I like very much, how “completos” (very similar to hot dogs, but with more ingredients), “churrascos” and “chorrillanas”, in all its varieties (Italian, farmer, Luco, poor, dynamic, Spanish, etc). They are ideal to share with my family and friends, I meet at least once a month with my friends to share a “chorrillana” or a pair of "Completos", sometimes met at my house and we roast, another of my favorite foods, it's great.

Thanks for reading this, I invite you to eat a couple of "completos" or better yet, a plate of "Porotos granados" You decide. What about you, what is your favorite food?

 

 

PET Practice

1. Reflect about your reading comprehension in PET activities 1 and 2:

I got good results in both PETs, my score in "Signs" was (7/7) and in "Matching" (4/5), I am very happy for this, only I'm wrong on a question of "Matching", in that some answers were very similar, that is difficult for me, and I'll read more carefully next time

2. Top 10 place to visit:

Places that I'd like to visit are Machu Picchu and Pyramids of Giza, to know the structures made for thousands of years by other human beings. I also chose Galapagos Islands by the opposite, it is a place that has been kept away from the hand of the man and nature is preserved intact.

3. Reflect on how useful can be learning English:

It is very important to know English, since it is currently a language used all over the world. In the future I can be used to attend patients from other countries, to travel the world and to chat with foreign tourists here in Chile. I'd like to learn science and health-related topics, this would provide me access to the latest scientific information and to relate to foreign patients.

 

My pet :)

Hello to all, this time I'm going to talk about my pet. I have a dog, his name is Polo, as the perfume "Ralph Lauren, Polo blue". I have my dog for almost 2 years, I have it since he was born in the summer of 2013, in Pichilemu. Currently I go to running with my dog all the weekend, I play with it and amuse myself much, it is a great pet.

I have not thought about another pet, because my dog is still pretty young, but If  I have another pet would be a dog, it is likely to adopt a homeless dog.

In general  I like animals very much, but I prefer dogs rather than cats, dogs are much more playful than  cats, also cats always leave all full of hair, and that displeases me.

There are other types of pets, a little more exotic like snakes, iguanas, alligators and some types of fish. I believe that have a exotic pets is a great responsibility, because if they escape and reproduce could endanger our ecosystem. On this type of pet, personally I'd have an iguana and breed it as if it were a dog.

And you... you have a pet? What is his name? Would you like to have an exotic pet? Thanks for reading, see you next week

My favorite Sport

Hello to all, this time I'm going to tell you about one of my favorite sports, Running. I like Running, because I compete against myself, trying to overcome me whenever I run, as well as improving my fitness and strength, allows me to prepare myself for a sport that I practice in the future, Surf.

I started running last year, when I was preparing for the run of the faculty of dentistry on October 25, after that I went to 3 more runs before the end of the year. I had thought continue to train during the summer, but was not so, since then I've not trained, the last time I ran was 7 K in Duoc UC San Joaquin run, and finished very tired. This Monday I signed up to run 8 K in Duoc UC Puente Alto run, from October 18, and already started to train, yesterday ran 7 K without problems, so I'm very happy.

I'd like to practice surfing, because I love the sea and because every year I go to Pichilemu, the world capital of surfing, and I feel that I'm missing a great opportunity to practice this sport, therefore, I will start practicing this summer.
