The secret diary of Adrian Mole I have chosen The Secret diary of Adrian Mole to read along the third term from my language school. Adrian Albert Mole is the fictional protagonist in a series of books by English author Sue Townsend. He is a British boy. He is 13 years old and he lives with his mother, his father and an animal known only as ‘the dog’. Adrian Mole writes his secret diary, which has gone on for a year and a quarter. He lives in a closed world where he tries to ‘become an intellectual’, reading the classics and he would like a whizz future although he is worried about his parents and his blackheads. To sum up, in his diary he tells about his relationship with his parents, friends, the girl he loves, Pandora and his grandmother. All the stories have a funny and a tender perspective. It’s my belief that this book reminds me the Wimpy kids series although it´s a realistic and humorous approach to the life of an adolescent boy. Graciela Science fiction films A recent survey has shown us that science fiction films are very popular, especially with young people. Nowadays there are many science fiction films as Men in Black or Blade Runner, so I am describing what I consider to be the essential ingredients of a good science fiction film and why they are so popular among young people. In my view all science fiction films share several characteristics which will draw the spectators’ attention. One of them is the characters, they usually are real normal people who live in an unreal world and the person who watches the film can imagine that he/she is saving the world from an alien invasion or fighting enormous insects. I believe young people, in most of cases, feel as they need a change in their lives and with science fiction movies they can imagine they are saving their towns or even the world. Our 2012 ebook.

In my opinion another essential feature of science fiction films is mystery. In most cases in all these films there is always something that you don’t understand, so your imagination runs wild. It is often claimed these this kind of films??? because teenagers argue they are funny and very fast films where you could imagine what the future will be like. To sum up, these are some of the factors why these films are so popular among young people. Their imagination is generally much bigger than adults’ imagination, who are much more rational. Graciela THE OLD MAN AND THE SEA The old man and the sea is a novel written by Ernest Hemingway in 1952. The novel tells the story of Santiago, an old man who had gone eighty-four days without catching a fish but his decision to achieve his aims is not worth the effort to be done to achieve his aims, in his case to catch a big fish. Firstly the book is not classified in chapters although it might be divided in several parts: the first one corresponds to the old man’s background and his own arrangements to go out to fishing. The second part, when he goes to the sea and has his fight with the fish and the sharks. The last part of the novel, to conclude, the arrival of Santiago, the old man, at the port. The novel follows a lineal development since the succession of facts is told in chronological order. As regards the plot, Santiago is an old fisherman from Gulf Santiago who goes fishing with a boy, who has great affection for the old man, but has to leave him for other fishermen who are more fortunate in their fishing. Nevertheless, the boy continued helping him. One day the old man decides to go out to the sea with the main aim of ending his wrong squall in fishing. The boy had obtained fodder for him. After a few hours of sailing he had lost all sight of coast, and a fish had punctured the fishhook. It was an enormous fish, ready to fight up to death, if it was precise. Our 2012 ebook. EOI Luarca.
