HUMAN RIGHTS

1-What are human rights?

Human rights are moral principles or norms that describe certain standars of human behaviour, and they are regularly protected as legal rights in municipal and international law.
They are commonly understood as inalienable. People have these rights just because they are human being, it doesn't matter their nation, language or location.

2- When and why were they created?

In 539 B.C., the armies of Cyrus the Great, the first King of ancient Persia, conquered the city of Babylon. He freed the slaves, declared that all people had the right to choose their own religion, and established racial equality.

3- How many human rights are there?

There are actually 30 human rights.

4-Which human right are you going to dig deeper?

The right to life. I think that this is the most important right.

DOES HUMOUR PLAY AN IMPORTANT ROLE IN LIFE?

Humour is a very important thing in life. Humour makes you laugh even when you're angry, sad or tired. Laughing is good because it makes you feel good and relaxed.

In my opinion, not all humour types are funny but I like some of them, like Dark humour. Humour plays a very important role in life nowadays because everyone gets sad or bored some days and humour is definitely a great solution. Everyone can enjoy humour because it is free. It connects you to other people because laughter is very contagious.

Humour is not essential in life, but it is sometimes very important to feel good and stay in a good mood.

Boxing in a hijab

A 16-year-old Muslim girl has become the first person in America ever to wear a hijab during a competitive boxing match. She ended up losing the match but later said that it was about much more.
She felt that she had a purpose in fighting for what she believes – that all girls should have a chance. She now has her sights on changing the international rules as well, so that she can compete at the Olympics in 2020 in her chosen attire.
The teenager hopes that others will be inspired by her story and keep fighting for what they believe in.

I think that this girl has been very brave because she hasn't been afraid of what people could think or say about her.
Words learned: attire.

Bomb in Baghdad

A car bomb exploded outside a popular ice cream shop in Baghdad. The place was full of people at the time of the explosion. Thirteen people died and 30 more were injured.
The attack took place at midnight when some Muslims break fasting during Ramadan. The Islamic State Group, which sees Iraq’s Shia Muslims as heretics, claimed responsibility for the attack.

The islamic state group kills a lot of people every week in Baghdad, but the think I don't like is that the tv news in Europe don't show this, they only inform about white people things and that's bad because Baghdad people are humans as european people.

Words learned: Fasting, heretic and claim responsability.

Tiger kills zookeeper

A tiger patrolling a perimeter in a zoo in England killed a zookeeper when it entered an enclosure with her. The zoo described it as a ‘freak incident’ and offered its sympathy to family and friends.
People evacuated visitors to the zoo and called an air ambulance to the emergency. Police assured the public that they are safe and that no animals escaped, and an investigation has begun to establish more detail about the tragic incident.
I feel sorry for the zookeeper but tigers are wild animals and I think that zookeepers never have to get into their zone because it's very dangerous.
Words learned: enclosure and freak.

Fight on a plane

At Burbank, California, passengers were leaving from a plane when a fight broke out between two men. Someone recorded it with a mobile phone as other passengers and crew members tried to stop the brawl. Afterwards, police arrested one of the men.
Southwest Airlines reported that its flight crews have training on how to de-escalate conflicts. The airline did not say what started the fight.
I think that it's a good idea that the flight crews learn how to stop a fight because a fight on a plane can be very dangerous.
Words learned: Brawl and de-escalate.

Mesut Özil

Mesut Özil is a German footballer who plays for the english club Arsenal and the German national team. He was born on the 15th October of 1988 in Gelsenkirchen, Germany. He gained international attention during the FIFA World Cup in 2010 and was nominated for the Golden Ball Award. He signed for Real Madrid in 2010 and there he showed to the world that he was one of the best attacking midfielders. He is acclaimed for finesse and improvisation as an attacking midfielder. His style and ability for providing assists to his teammates makes him one of the best football players. Several Real Madrid players were dissatisfied when he left the club, including Cristiano Ronaldo because he said that Özil was the player who best knew his moves in front of goal, that's why he got angry when Özil left the club and joined Arsenal. I like his style of playing football because he is very clever and he has got a lot of agility with his legs and he has got a lot of skills.
