Final Reflection

I can see an improvement on my level of english this year, my vocabulary has gotten better and I've learned a lot of new words. Now I speak english more fluently. I think the best activities that show my level of english are oral presentations and writings. The same activities have helped me improve my english because they require a little bit of everything (vocabulary, grammar, verbs) so they are very useful. The activities I didn't find useful were from the grammar book and the dossier, I think they don't really matter because in real life we won't use spread sentences like in those exercices. The activities I'd like to repeat next year are oral presentations to speak more fluently and writings and readings, because we'll have to know how to write and read well in english in the future.

Three suns in Mongolia

A weird celestial phenomenon appeared in Mongolia, and it looked like there were three suns in the sky. The middle sun was the one we usually see every day (the real one), but the ones on each side were the sun’s smaller reflections. A local meteorological centre explained that the optical phenomenon it's called anthelion, which means that the reflection is caused by sunshine high in the sky and light passing through snow crystals in the air. An anthelion can appear when the temperature is lower than -30°C, and the air is filled with clouds, vapour and ice crystals.
