Religion is a beautiful lie.

I agree that because I think that religion is something that one person invented in the past for control people, it's like a sect where someone say to you what you have to do, how you have to think and more.

In fact, I know that religion is a well help when you're in a bad moment, for example when someone who you loved has died.

In the past, I thought in religion but when my grandfather died I left to think in every thing that I can't see. It's a way to protect me of the pain.

I don't know, it's a strange topic that I don't like it because in English I can't say everything I'd say in Spanish, sorry.

Task 10

Biography:

Henry Ford (July 30, 1863 – April 7, 1947) was the American founder of the Ford Motor Company and father of modern assembly lines used in mass production. His introduction of the Model T automobile revolutionized transportation and American industry. He was a prolific inventor and was awarded 161 U.S. patents. As owner of the Ford Company he became one of the richest and best-known people in the world. He is credited with "Fordism", that is, the mass production of large numbers of inexpensive automobiles using the assembly line, coupled with high wages for his workers. Ford had a global vision, with consumerism as the key to peace. Ford did not believe in accountants; he amassed one of the world's largest fortunes without ever having his company audited under his administration. Henry Ford's intense commitment to lowering costs resulted in many technical and business innovations, including a franchise system that put a dealership in every city in North America, and in major cities on six continents. Ford left most of his vast wealth to the Ford Foundation but arranged for his family to control the company permanently.

What did he do?

He invented the Model T was introduced on October 1, it was very simple to drive, and easy and cheap to repair. Then, the successful Ford Model A, introduced in December 1927 and produced through 1931.

Ford, like other automobile companies, entered the aviation business during World War I, building Liberty engines. Ford's most successful aircraft was the Ford 4AT Trimotor.

Then, Ford maintained an interest in auto racing from 1901 to 1913 and began his involvement in the sport as both a builder and a driver, later turning the wheel over to hired drivers. He entered stripped-down Model Ts in races.

Task 8.

I've chosen Monsoon, by Tokio Hotel. Why? Because I've been their fan since they've started their musical life. They came to Spain four times and I saw them three times. First on the MTV Day, later in "La Gala de los 40 Principales" and then, in the Rock In Rio, this year. The last time I saw them is the best moment in all my life. I was in first line, I waited more than six hours to see them. When their show started I just could scream and cry. Other time was in May. I'd slept in the street for four days to see them, but finally, they didn't do the concert because Bill was ill. They've been the first band of rock music in my life. Later, I've evolved, now I love listening metal and hardcore music.

The activities are funny, but I've already known this song. And the vocabulary... the same.

Monsoon speaks about love, it's beautiful, but they've got better songs.

CU!
