Adventure holidays or beach holidays?

First this type of holidays depends about the person. Some people prefer one and others, the other one so:
In one hand we have adventure holidays, this type of holidays are for adventurous people, you have to be moved and it´s really exciting and funny, however you could suffer some injured or something. It is very nice, if you go with your friends, you will pass a perfect holiday because is better with more people. And for this holidays you don´t need a nice weather.

Now, in the other hand we have our beach holidays, these holidays are very funny as the other but I think these are more relaxed. You will need good weather if you want to go to the beach because if it´s very cold anybody won´t go to the beach. Nevertheless you can go alone or with your friends, you can have the sun or play with your friends.

In my opinión  I think is better beach holidays because, I prefer to be in calm and rest or swim at the sea and play with my friends.

Opinion essay, Individual sport are better than team sports

Advantages and siadvantages of individual or team sports.
First I´m going to say that play in team or alone is very different, nevertheless you will have to try the most of you in the two things.

In one hand play alone are that you are the responsability of you, you can win or lose. You don´t depend on the other peers, is only you, although is not the best idea because you are not having fun.

On the other handplay in team I think is better, because you have more fun with your friends or partners however maybe you couldn´t win when ever you want, it depends of your partners. Lastly, another disadvantage is to train, is better train in team tan alone.

In conclusión, for me is better the team sports, more funny, ejoyable and maybe it can make you win.

An opinion essay

Some people think that advertising, does more harm tan good. Maybe, they don´t think that advertising could be helpful. However the advertising is around the world.

From my point of view the advertisements are very useful, often, I could know the existence of a lot of products, that I never knew It could exist! For example, the other day surfing on the internet, an advertising of a helmet that could reproduce what you think in a TV! As same as me last Monday, my friend could find in an advertisement, one page to help third world childrens.

Finally,  for that and more things advertisements are not bad, advertisements are more useful that we can imagine. I am disagree with the idea of the ¨advertising are harm¨
