Written on in English with a size of 2.33 KB

Gender Inequality in Domestic Responsibilities

It is generally agreed that men and women should share family responsibilities. However, we live in a society where women handle 80% of domestic tasks. Everybody should try to collaborate in doing housework.

Many people think that if men work and bring money home, they should rest at home; that's their job. Besides, it is traditionally believed that women are better at choosing and taking care of children.

The Struggle for Gender Equality

In fact, I don't consider women equal to men because the female gender has always had it much harder than men.

Society expects women to stay at home and look after their children. La sociedad espera que las mujeres se queden en casa para cuidar de sus hijos.

It is true that in the future we will have contamination in our water. But, on the other hand, we will be able to filter the water, so it is not all bad.

We can agree that in the future, we will not have clean air because humans pollute the air.

It is very important to keep in mind that the Earth will change a lot. For example, instead of having glaciers, we will have more water in the ocean, and therefore, many animals and plants will die.

In my opinion, children will learn from our mistakes.

In fact, children will have many things because there will be less pollution.

In the future, children will not only be unable to play outside, but they will also not use paper in schools because there will be no forests.

In other words, in the future, our world... Continue reading "Future Environmental Challenges and Children" »

English Grammar: Relative Pronouns and Conditional Sentences

Classified in Spanish

Written on in English with a size of 3.74 KB

Relative Pronouns

1. WHO (que, quien, quienes)

Used to refer to people.

Example: The boy, who you met yesterday, is my brother.

2. WHICH (que, el que, la que...)

Used to refer to animals, things, or objects.

Example: The car, which you bought yesterday, is really nice.

3. THAT (que, el que, la que...)

Used to refer to people, animals, and things. There is a rule in English that says that "that" cannot be used after a comma. Therefore, we cannot use this relative in non-defining sentences, which are those sentences in which the relative clause goes between commas.

4. WHAT (lo que)

We use "what" with this meaning when it is a relative pronoun, and not an interrogative one.

Example: What you say is false! ///// I don't understand what you say.

5. WHERE (donde)
