OSCAR TORRES

The news paper was interested in giving a scholarship to a student who has all the characteristics they ask for example a majoring in journalism, good grades, someone who do activities outside the school and someone who gives his time to services to the community.
In the listening part it was said that there are two finalists. The first was Becky Stevens and the second was Ralph. The first finalist studies journalism and she has decent grades, but she also does a lot of activities at school, for example: she plays soccer, takes classes of violin and she belongs to the photography club. After school she goes to the hospital to do service to the community.
Moreover, the second finalist, Ralph, he has excellent grades, and he is also studying journalism because someday he wants to do scientific journalism. But he stays at lab almost all the time and attends local events.
According to the reading part the newspaper is looking for a student who besides having good grades also care about the community and I think the best candidate is the first finalist, Beck because apart from the activities at school she gives extra time to do service to community and i believe she deserves the scholarship because she wants to help more people than the second finalist.

childhood is the happiest time of a person life

Sometimes the people wish grew up fast because like do things that only are for the adults, maybe you hate the school or some things, but en this time you not have problems, yours parents are do for you, you only study or enjoy for this.

In the other hand when you are younger you wish are child, because miss the games, the school, when was a kid spend the time watch TV, now you working for pay your things, your school or maybe for buy shoes, clothes or other things, but when you was child you had all.

Really this time was beautiful because you enjoy of your time, nothing are important, you don’t have problems and all are funny for you, you had a lot of friends, the most simply things are wonderful. You playing with your brothers and cousins, now you remember the old times and sometimes you wishes repeat the time but this are impossible. The music are fantastic, in the garden school all are funny, you do the most crazy things.

Wherever I thing that really the best age of everybody is the childhood because nothing was important.

Madeleine Yuliana Villanueva Medina

Childhood ESSAY written by Carlos Sifuentes

Childhood is the happiest time of a person`s life?

Usually most of the people consider that childhood is the best moment of their perhaps because they think that in that age they were younger, and when you are young you think that everything is possible at least that what I have heard of my parents and other people.

In fact, I strongly disagree with this way of thinking. One of reasons I really do not believe this is because all stages of a lifetime have their ups and their downs, I mean great memories and awful ones. Although I am too young to know what is life about, the time that I have spent in life have been truly beautiful, because now I am trying to enjoy every day.

Sometimes I try to remember who I was a few years ago and I consider that in some specific things I have improved and in others I have lost the touch.

Other reason, why I refused the idea of that childhood is the best time, is because you got to know that if you were doing the activities that you really appreciate currently you must always think that today, the day in which you are reading this text, is the best time of your life.

To sum up I could state that childhood was an honestly good part of your life, but the other stages of life are as amazing as childhood was. In my case, I would say that this day started strongly disappointed but at the time I am writing this I have the energy to pursue my dreams again, because if you abandoned your dreams you undoubtedly are going to turn back time when you had it, commonly when you were just a kid.

Chilhood is the happiest time of a person´s life

Most of the people in Mexico will say "MY CHILHOOD WAS UNFORGETABLE" so the question is WHY? well some people will say because his parents were so strict when they were just a little kid , another part will say "Oh my mom or dad were so cute and nice that i never need anything" but my opinion is , i never imagine how lucky i was . Fortunately i have the best family in whole the world.
However like a normal family is natural to commit mistakes but solve it is what made you good in your own life. Since kid they teach me how in front my life , they used to tell me "when you can not do something don´t never give up try again and you will see that you do it ".
My sweetest moments as a child were when a I was in the kinder garden , my parents and I were in a carnival from my kinder garden so we had to dance , we did it and was awesome .There´s not a person who tell oss “YOU WERE GREAT” it was the attraction for my class and the girls adore me .
Then I left the kinder garden and I started a I new stage of life in my elementary school there I had my first fight , my first girlfriend and my first kiss.Oh I remember like it was yesterday the truth is I just can´t get it off my mind nobody know it how excited was I.

And my answer is yes none can´t deny that his Childhood was AWESOME .

childhood is the happiest time of a person life

I am agree with the statment because in the childhood we dont have problems and mortification our world is only the toys.
I think that is a period when your mother and father give you all their attencion and their love to you because you are little and they to keep you save of tha danger, they dedicate more time to teach you new things because I know that is the period when you learn more of your mother and father because you want to do the same and to act how they do it, that is the reason do they keep more time with us to tell us what is bad and what is correct, In the chilhood I learned to much things I learn to draw, to speak, and more things.
Childhood to my was the most important part of my live because I do not care about others things only in the game, and also I can ate a lot of things like a lot of chocolates and then i can not because of my face it can be ugly. Also when I went to a park I can not go into a game because is only for children, are many things that you can not do it now because you are in an other age.
In your childhood you have a healthy life without alcohol and does things that are dangerous for us.

Childhood is the happiest time of a person´s life.

First of all I will tell you that it depends of the person , because there are persons who had a miserable childhood and there are persons who had had a wonderful one.
For me I do think that childhood is a very important stage in life beacuse is when you learn about human and moral values and that will help you for the rest of your life.
I think childhood is a time for love and be loved, is a time for play and laugh, but also is a time for learn about cause and consequences and been responsible about what you do. I think that it is the real secret for reach happiness the rest of your life.
When a child is overprotected and no body teaches him/her to be responsible about what he does. For example if a child draws the wall no mater his age he must be explained that it was wrong and take the responsability of that why not with all your love and care take a cleaning cloth and show the child how to repair the damage that he already did, even a one year boy he can understand that it was wrong, is a baby not a fool, many people thinks that children don't undrestant and don't teach team to be responsible and those children goes trough life expecting that someone got incharge of his /her happiness.
I belive childhood is an amazing stage of life a great oportunity to learn and discover the world and use the imagination to reach the unreacheable and we also have a lot to learn from children and return ourselves sometimes to that time in order to recover that abilty to simplify the problems and smile whitout a reason, the abilty for wonder when you see a bubble all of that we loose when we grow up.
My conclusion is yes childhood is a great time but if we learn how to take our life in our hand we can be happy forever no matter the difficulties with imagination and creativity we can solve any problem and learn how to be like a child for ever.
Roxana I. Talavera Castañeda
Do you agree or disagree whit the following statement?
Childhood is the happiest time of a person´s life.

The childhood is between four and twelve years olds is when you are in the elementary school.
In my opinion the childhood is the more beautiful stage of the life, because you don have anything concern. In my personal experience when I was child I only do three things, ate, played, and slept, I don´t have obligations to do, in the childhood you need all the love of ours parents, and all the attention, that is possible.

In this age you have a lot of friends. I think that in the childhood you know your bets friend of the live, you spend all the time whit she/he, you can see in the school and then you go to her/his to do your homework and works in teems.

In the childhood you don’t think bad things, you are innocent and nobly, something you do antics but is only for fun. I remember when I was in the elementary school all the class did a joke to the teacher, we invented that we saw a killer in the place next to the school but that’s is false, and when the police arrived, they discovered that all was a lie, that was so funny.

But if the child don’t have love and their parents don’t give attention, this child would have a the most ugly childhood, and probably in the future this child will be a criminal.


So I am agree that the childhood is the happiest time of a person´s life if he/she has a good parents that give a good educations.

Childhood is the happiest time of a person´s life

Childhood is the happiest time of a person's life

I agree with the statement which says that childhood is the happiest time of a person's life because when you are a kid you don’t have to worry about adult’s problems or money issues and you just enjoy the time with your family and friends.

Another reason to agree is that when you are a kid, everything is new and everything is a new experience and you can feel that you are learning a lot of stuffs. You can really feel that everything is so easy and fun.

When you are a kid you can do whatever you want and nobody is going to argue against you because you are just a kid wanting to learn how life is and what to do in the following years.

My childhood was a great time of my life. I remember that I played with my cousins on the street all day after elementary school and we used to play soccer, hide and seek and a lot of funny games. As I am an only child, I had to go to my grandmother’s house to see my cousins. I remember the first time I ride a bike, my mom was holding me on a field and then she let me go by myself. The feelings I felt that time were a combination of freedom and that you can achieve whatever you propose if you really want to. Things like these are the ones that make of childhood the best time of your life.

Childhood is the happiest time of a person's life

In this days, we think in some activities that our fathers did with their fathers like play soccer or talking in some apointments with the members of their family and those days are really far a way.

We always think in our family like a base of the society but sometime we forget the real importance about the correct way that we have to behave. However we remember our childhood like the happiest time of our life.

In this case I always remember when my father comes at home after a complicated workday, and he told me "son come here I need to talk with you" and he always ask me about the school and if i had finish my homework, when finished my homework he gave me 20 pesos to buy something taht I want and I jumped for joy. I bought a lot of candies to share with my firends in the neighborhood.

When we are child we don't have responsabilities despite that we have to behave the best way and meet with the homeworks.

I think definitely the childhood is the happiest time of a person's life because we only live one time and our childhood is like a fairy tale.





Samuel Morales Alvear

childhood is the happiest time of a person life

I am agree with this following because i think that the childhood is the happiest time of a person life in this part of the person life , the person learn a lot of things in the house and in the other place. i think that this part is the happiest because the children don´t have a lot of shoores and the children can play all day with brother , friends, etc . In this part of the life the children are hiperactive, and also spend ther energy playing and playing . Is very happiest because the parents give them all atention and they are there when the children need anything this part is funny too because the children do bad things sometimes and the parents never said nothing. the childhood is very interesting because the childrens learn more when have a accident but this is funny too. because are things that the chil never will forget. this is very important for the child and for his parents. for example when the child go to the school there are many children that like this but there are other that don´t like this and is funny because when the people is old can remember all this things and can talk about his childhood moments , other thing is that in the childhood the children can wake up late after that they can breakfast and watch tv all day and when need anything they also say mom or dad and the parents is with them in seconds.
in my case my childhood was the happiest part of my life because i love sale clothes with my parents and all days i wake up early and i went with them to the street . there i played with my cousin all day .

Do you agree or disagree with the next statement "childhood is the happiest time of a person's life

Is childhood the happiest time of a person's life?
Well i think it is because at that age your life is easier than a life as an adult. When your a child you have no obligations, no homework, you don't have a job in other words your life is easier and perfect.

Some advantanges When you are a childis that your only obligations are: play with your friends or your toys, also with your videogames eat a lot candies and chips and sleep all the night as a baby. And when you are an adult your life is horrible you have to study at the unersity you need to do a lot of homework a lot of obligations and pay for everithing

Some people said that when you are a child you only cry all day long and suffer for everything thats not true because when you are a child your parents give you everything,besides everyone love a child because of his beauty.

Well it's a fact that a child doesn't know what he is doing, that he only act by his instinct, also is well said that you didn't remember the things you did when your were only a child.
But is doring the childhood that you discover the world the good things and bad things of it ,
then you discover your parents.

The bad thing of the childhood is when you enter to the elemanrary school, you cry all the day because you miss your parents you don't want to be in boring place you want to go home and play with your toys or videogames, the teacher look loke a monster to you.
But at the end your happy because now you have new friends .

The life as an adult is difficult,very difiicult you have a lot of problems, personal and work problems especially work problems, you need money for your family, and your stressed all the day long because of the work or the traffic or just because that wasn't the life you wanted.

Finally i think that the childhood is the best time of a life because you don't have problems you rest all the day,play with your friends soccer or with your toys also with your videogames you no obligations and because everyone loves especially your family you I meant everyone loves a child

Jesus Flores

childhood is the happiest time of a person's life?

No it doesn't. I disagree because at any age you can be happy, it depens your attitude, your goals, your lifestyle, etc. Any person have all the factors to be really happy, these factors are like: life, health,family, friends, job, etc, but we need to find the sense of our life,maybe in our way we can have difficult points, but we need continue with our goals, although possibly we can find difficulties or something like that, but the key word is: "try". if we try again and again, we can find the real happiness.
Love, friendships, stability, familiar relationships are part of happiness, so it's inside us, also motivation is part important of that, when you are motivaded you can feel like a happy person .
nowdays is some difficult to find it, because we live in a global world where the appearence, the status, the economic level,the beauty, the power, etc sometimes could affecting our view, so in these cases is necessary looking inside us, and find the great, amazing,wonderful person that exist inside us, but for reaching that is necessary falling dawn, experiment and getting mature.

childhood is the happiest time of a person's life

Do you agree or disagree with the following statement: "Childhood is the happiest time of a person's life"

I absolutly agree with these statement, because I'm 22 years old and will finish my University in may 2011 , but now i have many questions aboute my future, likes money, job, familie and other things. these situation is very dificult and new for me, because if i take a bad decision i will have many problems in the future.
i think the chilhodd is the best time , because the person don't have take a important decisions and living in a special world. In these time the most important things for the children are the games, candy and friends.
in the childhood if you take a bad decisions you don't have problems or strees, because other person take a important decisions for you , normally are the parents.
When the chilhood end, the persons have many situations in your lives for example the relationship ,with these start a new time for the person with good and bad things. In the live the person have other important decision likes university, job , money and finally the more complicade topic in your live "get married " because maybe you have children and start the best responsability in your live.
i think all time of a person's lifes are special and diferent because you can do diferent things, but i think childhood is the happiest time for my life.
