Should we do the research paper in batxillerat?

In my opinion the research paper is a good way to learn more things about the topic you have chosen.
Firstly, I have to say that for me it was interesting and also funny to do it. I think that before you choose the topic you have to be sure that you would be interested in doing it. I also have to say that Catalonia is the only place where we have to do the research paper.
Furthermore, I think that it was a lot of work because at the same time we had exams and from my point of view it was one of the reasons why I retake.
Finally, I don't think that they have to eliminate the research paper but I think that it sould not be compulsory and that it could be a way to improve the final mark.

In the picture above the text I can see a beach and a sunset which the sun goes down. It is a little bit dark. The sun is reflectes on the water. In the water there are people swimming.

Sometimes, I would like to be therewhen I have moments which I feel stressed and I feel bad, when I want to stay on my own because I have problems with my parents, friends... I think that it's a place to disconnect. This place transmit to me lots of feelings like freedom, calmless and peace.

This picture is nice, beautiful, fantastic, wonderful etc. I love places like that because the beach is one of the most beautiful places I know.

Sarah Hannity's presentation about Belfast: A comment.

In my opinion the oral presentation of Sarah Hannity was very good in all the aspects; it was really interesting, good pronounciation, no reading, good estructure and good power point with lots of photos.
I think that having a native speaker in the English classes is a very good idea because is an excellent way to practise the language, the pronouciaton etc.
