Homework n1

Objective: Write an article about the importance of reading in English

"Reading" (reading) is a very important section for learning English and we could
not leave it aside in English. We wanted to think of something that first creates
interest and motivation because many times in class they give us little
interesting readings that only make us bored and away from creating a habit of
reading. One reads better when it comes to something that is interesting for and
that arouses passion. There is no doubt that reading is fundamental to learning
English. Let's see the reasons for you to realize the benefits that it brings to read
in English.
Vocabulary
Having made it clear that reading has more effect when you read something that
interests you, reading in English increases the vocabulary. Most importantly, we
have our brain manage to deduce new words from the context before even using
a dictionary (of course it is English-English).
Grammar
By reading not only identify structures but also the context, they reinforce the
use of such structures. They manage to understand a message through structures
learned in class but in a fluid and natural way. Many times when studying
different grammatical structures we read only subjects related to the objectives
of a unit.
Writing
In my classrooms writing is the least expected section in which many students
have more problems. Reading helps a lot in writing since reading various phrases,
the brain takes them as models to reproduce in the future. If they read, for
example, business emails in a row, you will find that writing an email will be
easier.

Kevin Durant sees why LeBron James offended by Phil Jackson's posse remark

9:57 PM COT
BOSTON -- Include Golden State Warriors forward Kevin Durant as another
high-profile player who didnt approve of Phil Jacksons use of the word
posse when describing the business partners of Cleveland
Cavaliers forward LeBron James.

I see why LeBron took offense to it, Durant told ESPN. He doesnt just work
on the basketball court; he puts his work in [off of it, as well]. Hes trying to set
himself, his kids, his kids kids up forever. So doing it for 10-plus years, to not
associate what hes done with being an empire, I understand why he took offense
to it.
Jackson made the statement during an ESPN Q&A with Jackie MacMullan in an
attempt to dissect what might have led James to leave the Miami Heat to return
to the Cavaliers in the summer of 2014. James said he lost all respect for the
"Zen Master" after hearing about Jackson's comment.
GOLDEN STATE WARRIORS
Childhood friends Maverick Carter and Rich Paul serve as
James business manager and sports agent, respectively.
Carter takes care of James off-the-court ventures, while
Paul represents James as his agent via his company Klutch
Sports Group, which also represents Philadelphia
76ers rookie Ben Simmons, Washington Wizards AllStar John Wall, and Cavaliers players J.R. Smith and Tristan Thompson, among
others.
James and his successful business associates believe posse has a negative
connotation toward young African-Americans.

I dont think Phil is racist, Durant said to ESPN. I think he just used a bad
word; and he shouldnt be talking about other players, anyway, on another team.
But I dont think Phil -- I dont think he meant it in a bad way, but it sounds like a
downgrade to what they really are. I understand why [LeBron] was upset.
Durant said there are a number of ways of empowering those close to you, but he
also said he believes its important to provide opportunities to those capable of
doing the job.
Thats what leaders do. You put people in position to be successful, whether
thats on the basketball court or off the court, Durant said. So the people I
really care about -- whether its my mom going out and telling her story to other
single moms and helping them; my godfather who raised me and taught me how
to play the game of basketball and running my AAU program and impacting lives
in my neighborhood; and my dad [being a] high school coach.
So it doesnt matter if its a top CEO of a corporate business, as long as youre
impacting the youth or impacting people, I think thats putting them in position.
One of my best friends [Charlie Bell] is starting his career off in sports
management. So its just having that opportunity to know that you can be in this
position, you can impact so many lives, and I think thats the most important
part.
