This week I read this article that try to explain how the chemicals are in most of the food that we consume even in the naturals. We think that the natural food is better because it is supposed that they don't contain chemicals but thats a lie not all the natural food have chemicals but yes a plenty of them. Also I can think that the natural foods can be more cheaper but the true is that the artificial flavors generally cost less because is cheaper  to produce and finding them that the natural.

Report 2

This practice of the TOEIC exam was so helpful for me because I could realize that I really have to practice more in both things reading and listening. I need a lot of more vocabulary and improve my listening because there are some words or kind of conversations I really don´t understand so I have to work in that.

I think that I didn't get so bad results in this practice of the TOEIC exam pero obviously I can get better results.

My score for Listening was 385 and for Reading 325, with this score I could have a B1, its a little sad but now I know in what I can work on to improve this score to get B2 or more.

 

Report 3

Listening

      

For this report I did an activity in ECentral. What I had to do was to listen some parts of a video and later write some missed words.

This application is very helpful to us because we can practice the part of listening, writing and also speaking. I think that this application is good and really can help us because it is not boring and we can find a lot of videos of anything so we can practice with interesting and new topics.

Listening

The listening part of the test was a little difficult because it takes to much time and attention, I have never taken the TOEIC exam so I really don't know that there was a lot of questions. I think that I'm not so bad in the listening part but obviously I have to practice more because I know that I can be better.

Reading 

I have to admit that I get distracted very easily so I had some problems to finish this part of the exam. The first part of the test was a little difficult for me because I don´t knew some words but later I think that was easier so I was able to continue faster that in the first time. In general I think that this part of the test helped me to know what I have to practice and learn more.


Words that I learned were:

Measurement: medición

Feasibility: factibilidad

Quite: bastante

Aware: consciente

Foremost: principal

Headquartered: con sede en
