A formal letter

                                                           C/ La Crónica 27 1*D
Málaga, Spain.

Town hall
Av. de Cervantes, 4, 29016 
Málaga, Spain. 

Dear lord mayor,
I am writing to complain about the few bike lanes in our city because there are a lot of young people who want to more around the city and go to different places using their bikes. 
Málaga is a big town where a lot of tourists come to enjoy our beatiful town. And there are so many places to visit and we think that the idea of building more bike lands could help people to go everywhere avoiding pollution.
I would be grateful if you could make an appointment with someone who could help us and give us information about the project. 

Yours faithfully,
Laura Cosano.

My disability

My name is Laura and I've been blind since that accident. It was two years ago and I remember it so well I had a car accident with my father and my friend. At first, when I was in hospital and I opened my eyes I only saw dark. At that moment I just wanted to cry, but later I thought that I was lucky to be alive.

My life is so different and difficult. For example, I must learn Braille to write and read well. I miss the colours and my friends' faces, but I'm happy because they're with me and they're so proud of me. Now, I need help for some thins but I have the advantage of seeing the world as it really is, and my life, maybe, is a little easier.

There are some thins which annoy me. When I walk with my friends and I can't walk at the time or, when I go to the cinema it is difficult to enjoy the film. People, respect me, because I'm not blind since I was born.

I feel so well, because, I'm alive!

Anne Frank

Annelies Marie Frank was born on June 12, 1929 in Frankfurt, Weimer Republic and died on February, 1945 at the age of fifteen in Bergen-Belsen concentration camp, Lower Saxony, Nazi Germany. She's famous because she wrote a diary where she told about her experence during the holocaust and the German occupation of the Netherlands in World War II.

After years living in Germany, Annie and her family moved to Amsterdam in the early 1930s when the Nazis gained control over Germany. They were happy again but by May 1940, the were trapped in Amsterdam and the persecutions of the Jewish population increased so, the Frankfurt family and four other people went into hiding in some concealed rooms behind a bookcase in the building where Anne's father worked.

In August 1944, the group was betrayed and transported to Auscwitz concentration camp. Anne and her sister, Margot, were tranferred to Bergen-Belsen concentration camp, where they died (probably of typhus) in February or March 1945, just few weeks before the camp was liberated in April by the British army.

I think Anne Frank is one of the most important women in history because thanks to her diary, we can know about the horrible things that the Nazis did to these people...
