The language is the oral communication form that people have for expression their emotions and their thoughts.
But, in the world, each country has a different language for example; in countries like United States, Canada and others countries speak English; in Japan and Korea speck Mandarin; in Brazil and Portugal they speak Portuguese, and we Latin Americans; speak Spanish but, each country has its own language, there are dialects that is a variant of some words associated with a particular geographical area
.
In Costa Rica, we speak Spanish, but in each places we use different words to refer to something with the same meaning, for example ; in Guanacaste we say “chimpinilla” to refer a shin, “acuantá” that meaning just now. In Limon, there is a dialect that is a mixture between English and Spanish, this dialect is called “Patua”. In other places of Costa Rica like Talamanca they speck indigenous languages.
I think that the language is part of the culture's country and we must grow with globalization and learn other language like English or Mandarin because it is very important to get a good job but we shouldn´t forget our own language.
First… I think the person who practice extreme sport is very crazy and of course, very brave because this sport is dangerous.
Extreme sports are those sports or activities with a sports component, which by its real danger in this way are called.1
There are different types of extreme sport, for example:
SURFING is a water sport. Many people are hit with rocks and also drowning.2 Costa Rica has many beaches but surfing is not a sport practiced by the people of Costa Rica, for example, Guanacaste has one of the world's best beaches for surfing, but only people from other countries practice this sport.
MOTOCROSS is one of the most dangerous sports, it is very entertaining but has very terrible accidents an example is Lobito Fonseca accident, the motorcyclist was paralyzed by an accident on his motorcycle. Today, one of the most famous motorcycle is Travis Pastrana, in our country is Roberto Castro known as MUFLITAS.
SKYDIVING is a parachute jump technique, which can be done from an airplane, helicopter or hot air ballooning, recreational purposes, sport.3
There are more examples of extreme sports such as mountain climbing or ice climbing, skateboarding, rafting, canopy. To practice these sports the people need an excellent physical condition because otherwise they would have many difficulties, but above all they need an excellent mental condition, because the most power in our body is the mind.
I like some extreme sport, but only as an amateur because I can’t practice this type of sport because I get scare. The only extreme sport that I can do is canopy.
Really I admire these people who are strong and they not have fear of danger.

When the criminal steal the identity of the people is very dangerous and can be most the steal of money, because the thieves with the identity can do many things. The identity theft is a steal of personal information for example: person’s name, passport number, address, driver’s license; this information about the victim is used to open bank or for use the credit card.
The criminal has many different forms to steal the personal information of his victims, for example false phone call, false price or false advertising.
Today, with internet is easier to get personal information about anyone. For this reason, we must be careful with our information, we should save our information don’t giving our information to strangers

Dear organizers:
I write to give my opinion about the activity that took place last week which I attended.
I think that the globalization topic is very broad and very interesting because is a current topic for the world. Globalization has differents aspects like economic, technological, social and cultural, has a objectiv that is obtain the interdependence of countries and unite the markets of all countries. For this reason is important to know about companies like an INTEL because this company is the clear example of globalization in our country.
It is important to make these activities because for every college student must to know about this issue because we should advance with our country. Like all, globalization has positive and negative aspects, but in my opinion we must take the good aspects and minimize the bad aspects.
Thank you for attention and I hope a new opportunity for participate in other activity.
Cordially
