THE DRUGS

Hello everybody. Today I talk about drugs that it is a topic that is very frequent in our society.

Well I explain the definition of drugs, types of drugs, the legality…

According to the WHO (world-wide organization of the health) the drug is all substance that causes that changes the body and modifies the stale of mind, and increases or reduce the physical or psychic performance or can alter the conduct. Drugs are addictive substances.

We could make a general classification about drugs: The hallucinogenic drugs, the stimulating drugs and the depressing drugs.

-The hallucinogenic drug is a type of drug that make you hallucinate and you have the sensation of being in a trip. Sometimes it can be pleasant or unpleasant.

-The stimulating drugs are drugs that stimulate the body and the mind and produce a state of excitement and euphoria.

-And the depressing drugs are the drugs that  attenuate or they inhibit the cerebral mechanisms of the performer eve like tranquillisers or sedatives.

Now I explain eight types of drugs.

First of all I explain the design drugs: Are  pills of different colours and sizes with drawings, caught the eye. It makes you dance during hours non stop, but the next day the effects are bad and terrible. This hard drug takes effects between 3 and 6 hours. It is a hallucinogenic drug.

Now I explain the LSD: Is a small square with a drawing on the face. When you take this type of drug you have a sensation of having one’s head in the clouds. This drug hard takes effect between 6 and 12 hours. It is a hallucinogenic drug.

Now I explain the cannabis: The cannabis can turn up in the form of a brown consistent paste called (chocolate) or also as leaves of marihuana that get smoked as cigarette. People that consume cannabis used to feel more relaxed and communicative, laugh without any reason, sometimes increase the hunger… It is a depressing drug.

Now I explain the heroin: It is a white dust that are usually sniffed but it can also get smoked or injected. If it is taken in small doses provokes well-being and pleasure but if you take great doses, it makes sleep come. It is a depressing drug.

Now I explain the cocaine: The cocaine it’s the same that the heroin but it has different affections. The cocaine produces sensation of energy and security. The effect lasts 30 minutes.

Now I explain the tobacco: The tobacco consumes inhaling the smoke produced by the cremation of the tobacco. The nicotine is a stimulating drug that helps to stimulating people.

And finally I explain the alcohol: It is the most domestic drug. You can find it everywhere. It’s healthy in small doses. The alcohol causes sleep and if it is drunk in excess you can lose the knowledge. (If you drink don’t drive)jaja It is a depressing drug.

Now I talk about the legality and illegality of drugs. Only the tobacco the alcohol and the caffeine are legal drugs. The others are illegal as the heroin, the cocaine, the design drugs…

But in others countries as Holland the cannabis is legal. Many people in the world would like that the drugs would be legal but it’s still no possible because the governments don’t agree with it.

Well this has been my oral presentation. I hope you have enjoyed very much and you have found it very interesting.

Any questions?

Well this is the second oral presentation about Australia. This presentation to my personally it was not well because I was very nervous and I believe that the first presentation was better taht the second.

***************************************

Today we talk about Australia. We have chosen Australian because it’s a very beautiful country and we like a lot. And we presentation we will explain his history, his famous people, his fauna, his climate and his sports.

First we can explain his history.

This is a nation located in the hemisphere of the south, and which occupies the entire continental part of Australia.

The name "Australia" is derived from the Latin Australis, meaning of the South

The first human habitation is estimated to have occurred between 42,000 and 48,000 years ago. The first Australians were the ancestors of the current Indigenous Australians; they arrived via land bridges and short sea-crossings from present-day Southeast Asia. Most of these people were hunter-gatherers, with a complex oral culture and spiritual values based on reverence for the land and a belief in the Dreamtime. The Torres Strait Islanders, ethnically Melanesian, inhabited the Torres Strait Islands and parts of far-north Queensland; their cultural practices are distinct from those of the Aborigines.



Most of the estimated 20.6 million Australians are descended from nineteenth- and twentieth-century European settlers, the majority from Great Britain and Ireland. Australia's population has quadrupled since the end of first World War spurred by an ambitious immigration program. In 2001, the five largest groups of the 23.1% of Australians who were born overseas were from the United Kingdom, New Zealand, Italy, Vietnam and China.


The primary basis of Australian culture until the mid-20th century was Anglo-Celtic, although distinctive Australian features had been evolving from the environment and indigenous culture.
Over the past 50 years, Australian culture has been strongly influenced by American popular culture.
The traditions of indigenous Australians are largely transmitted orally and are closely tied to ceremony and the telling of the stories of the Dreamtime.
In the area of the Australian Aboriginal music, dance and art have a palpable influence on contemporary Australian visual and performing arts.
And in the area of Australian literature has also been influenced by the landscape. An author of the most important is Patrick White that he won a Nobel Prize in Literature.

Second we can explain his famous people.

Many known celebrities come from Australia.

Mel gibson: He is the director and producer of cinema
Russell Crowe:Is an actor and he won 1Oscar for his participation in Gladiator.
Nicole kidman : She is an actress and takes an Oscar as her interpretation in Moulin Rouge.
And the famous hunter of crocodiles Steve Irwin.

Now we can explain his fauna.

The fauna of Australia consists of a huge variety of unique animals;
Australia is home to two of the five known extant species of monotremes, and has numerous venomouse species. Australia has more venomous than non-venomous species of snakes.
The most famouse animal are: the platypus (ornitorringo), the tasmanian devil , the koala, the dingo, The red kangaroo…

Ok. Now we can explain his climate.

The climate it is hot and dry, continental with big contrasts. The stations in Australia are objected of those of the north hemisphere: the summer begins in December, the autumn in March, the winter in June and the spring in September. Due to his great extension, his geographical location and the lack of high mountain chains, Australia has a wide scale of climates but in general, they are not extreme.

The temperature average goes from 23º to 26 ° to the north of the Tropic of Capricorn and temperatures most moderated in the south, I hold to variations. With this, and with the fact that Australia is the driest continent of the globe, this land is a tourist wonderful destination the whole year.

And finally we can explain his sports.

Australia has important teams in cricket, hockey, netball, rugby league and rugby union, cycling, surf and swimming. To national scale, other popular sports include Australian football, careers of horses and driving.
He has been a host of the Olympic Games of 1956 and of 2000 .
The surf started become popular on the coasts of California and Australia, spreading then to other countries.

Psychology is a scientific subject. It is one of the most interesting subjects of science and for me. The mane is itself explains what the subject is about. Psycho means the human mind and the human brain and logy means the theory or the logic. There are so many questions of life, about a human being, that can be answered by understanding the human mind.

In recent years, psychology has become one of the most popular subjects for degree study.


Secondly when I was a child I was sure that I wanted to be a teacher although I still like this profession, after reading a lot about I changed my mind.

Thirdly I have very clear where I want to study I want to go Barcelona University because I like this city very much and I know a lot of people there I’ am in touch with. I can go to Girona but I prefer go to Barcelona.

In Barcelona this subject is available in different universitys as UAB, UB, Ramon Llull…etc
The course length is of four years and the average mark to entry is about 6,0.

Finally, the specialization can be archived in following areas of Psychology study like:
Clinical, forensic, social or health psychology.
I would like to work in the health area.
The career opportunities are in private and public sector.

A person with this degree can never get bored.
