Mas simple de lo que parece

Al hablar de donación de órganos, se habla de muchos temas juntos, desde la medicina hasta la sociedad y su voluntad para donar. Para estudiar un tema como este, tenemos que entenderlo desde muchos puntos de vista y uno de ellos es las fundaciones que se encargan de las listas de espera para saber qué necesidad de órganos hay. El organismo encargado de esta tarea es I.N.C.U.C.A.I esta fundación para poder tener un buen “servicio” divide sus tablas con dos ejes, el eje horizontal indicando qué órgano se necesita en cada provincia y en el eje vertical el nombre de la provincia y la cantidad de órganos necesitados. Día a día esta fundación suma y suma nuevos donadores ( lamentablemente, en su mayoría cadavéricos) también se suma gente que necesita los órganos. Encontrar el donante no es nada fácil, ademas de estar dispuesto a donar deben ser histocompatibles para que el cuerpo del receptor no rechace el órgano, aunque siempre queda abierta esta posibilidad en el futuro.

Climates

Equatorial

This climate can be found inside the 5° from the Equator. The temperature do not vary very much, only about 2 C because the sun is always overhead in this climate. Annual range of rainfall exceed the 2000mm because of the warm air causing storms. At the morning take place a temperature of 25 degrees, and then when the sun gets to the highest point it reach up to 38 degrees. High temperatures in short periods of time causes clouds to form very quickly.

Tropical Continental:

It’s found far away from coasts,in the Brazilian highlands and parts Venezuela. It has two seasons;a dry and the wet season. During the wet season rainfalls increase. During the dry season the moisture is taken away by the wind because of the position of the sun consequently the clouds can’t be formed.

The monsoon:

The monsoon is divided in two ; The southwest and the northeast. In the southwest the influence of the sea is too far away. This makes it very hot so the moisture rises and forms clouds. The annual rainfall exceed 2000mm because of the colossal storms.

In the northeast monsoon the wind blows outwards from the high pressure area, but because they originate in dry areas they give only a small amount of rain in India but in the other season wind direction changes.

Hot Desert:

This is a climate with the highest temperature records. They have almost no precipitation because the winds came from the dry land and have to go across a lot of mountains so moisture can’t be rised, because is to dry as to pick up moisture.

Cold Climate:

Winters in this climate are very long, dark and very cold. It has the lowest temperatures of the earth. It has almost no influence from the sea. Precipitation is very low because the cold air do not rise moisture

Look Before You Leap

During the Language class, the teacher Andrea Schejter told us to write a story following the title: "Look before you leap". For this task, we were asked to use connectors,examples of direct speech, 2 similes, 1 metaphor and 2 examples of past perfect.

I visited William last week. I hadn´t seen him for more than ten years. I knocked on his door. "Who is there?" he asked. "Bro, here your old friend, Michael" I answered. He got his keys as quickly as a cheetah and opened the door. We greeted and went to the living-room, he inmediately offers me a beer.

Then we started talking about our past lives. Ten years without talking to each other, an entire decade. We talked abut everything, our lives, our girls, he told me that he had a son last year. Well... he told me "a little inofensive monster" I understood it like that. As result of the theme of his son, he told me "I have seen many schools for this creature, but I didn´t like any". I understood what he was telling me since I had the same problem with my son. I told him that he had to look before he leap, because choosing a school for your son or daughter is as difficult as climbing the Himalaya. After 3 long hours talking about our lives, we decided that it was hour to finish the conversation. Finally, we past from and he told me"come when ever you want, you are as good as a psychologist to help people". I thank him, and went away.

Completá a Otra Persona

La donación de órganos es totalmente un acto social y medico, por sobre todo social ya que el donador debe aceptar o sus familiares deben aceptar para salvar la vida de otro individuo, ya que muchas veces los donantes son cadavericos. Por otra parte la parte medica de la donacion de organos se refiere al transplante, la ablacion del organo en un cuerpo y el transplante ("insercion" del organo en el otro cuerpo) del mismo en el otro cuerpo, es una operacion de mucho tiempo y riesgo muchas veces.

La obra "ponte en su lugar"(se refiere a que a la hora de donar hay que pensar en la vida de la otra persona) es muy realista en cuanto a la compatibilidad entre personas, no importa el color de piel,la raza ni el genero, esto es practicamente lo mismo que pasa en "En el lado de la vida" donde la madre despues de que su hija murio decidió donar poniendose del lado de la vida y no dejando que muriera la chica por mas que fuera de otro color de piel.

 A Frightening Experience

Last night, at 3:20 am,while I was alone in my house, something weird was happening upstairs. I heard noises coming from there, They weren't common noises, they were mysterious and terrible. I felt paranoid, as if someone wanted to hurt me. My bedroom was on the second floor, and I was frightened of going up. Later, at 4 am I was sleepy and I decided to go up and asked my self "what is going to happen? What can those strange noises be?" I took courage, got a knife and went upstairs. While i was going up, the noise came louder . I was walking fearless. However,  in the inside I was dying of fear.

 Now, I was on the second floor and I realised that something was moving in my room, it was a shadow behind the door. I felt insecure of getting inside my room as I didn't know what was going to happen. The door opened inmediately alone. I took a deep breath and went in. The door closed behind me. There wasn't anyone I could see. I raised my head and saw a malicious and scuffy creature, he went down and stood up in front of me. I was terrified, I was like a rock, I couldn't move until he said
"Let the game begin"
Who who are you?- I said stammeringly.
-It's better for you to start running- said with an arrogant voice. Without doubting it I rushed away searching for something that would save me. Fortunately his hands couldn't move faster even than a turtle. When I got to know where I was, I was already looking at the floor and I felt something grabbing my leg while saying:
"No choice, we will play" and then I realised I had no way out.

Carácter hostil

No fue hace mucho que paso,Javier era un detective, de los mejores, siempre atento y abierto ante cualquier crimen, un día se encontró ante el asesino mas implacable, el cual, como era tan astuto, no dejaba pistas por error, sino por querer jugar con quienes lo buscaban, por cada cadáver, el asesino dejaba un papel con una dirección, en cuanto el papel era leída, las luces de todo el barrio se apagaban y surgían unos caníbales, que perseguían al detective y al grupo, quienes no alcanzaban la llegada eran asesinados y quienes llegaban a la dirección dada se salvaban y encontrarían aun mas pistas que los llevarían al siguiente cadáver. encontrado el siguiente cadáver, serian dadas otra dirección a la cual tenían que llegar, fue lo mismo una y otra vez hasta que en un cadáver estaba escrita una dirección desconocida, ninguna luz se apago, ningún caníbal apareció, pacientemente, los peritos se armaron y se dirijieron a la dirección dada con las fuerzas especiales.
Cuando llegaron a la dirección se encontraron con una sola casa en ciento de kilómetros baldíos, el detective, acompañado por un reducido grupo de policías, se atrevió a entrar a la casa, en la cual increíblemente se encuentra con un niño jugando con un cadáver, al darse cuenta el niño de que alguien habia entrado en su casa, gira su cabeza, pero en cuanto realiza ese gesto, su cabeza fue perforada por una bala.

Este hipertexto da a conocer ciertas huellas del hipertexto "La Casa de Asterion", tales como el detective, quien representa a Teseo, el cual muchas veces entraba encubiertamente al laberinto de Asterion, el detective entra en un laberinto cada vez que se encuentra con un cadaver. en La Casa de Asterion tambien se muestra a Asterion como una bestia hostil, tal como puede ser un niño.
