Recording was sent to my parnets, Omar Arias and Jorge Seijas

3.1.5 Go over Learning Object 3 and get familiar with the way of writing a good paragraph. Now try to write one about anything you like!

I enjoy good food. I love the diversity of flavors that I can perceived in a single bite. Among my favorite meals is found the Lasagnewho is prepared using the best fresh products and cheeses, I think a great lasagne basically depends on their sauces. Also I produce a lot of satisfaction eating a good piece of meat; preferably roasted and accompanied by good conversation with my family and friends.

·         3.1.6 Based on the recording you have received, develop the writing activity on page 21: Write a formal email (not exceeding one page long) to Human Resources and report what the employee (of the recording you have received) has expressed during the interview. Take into account:

• What he/she likes about his/her job?
• What he/she does not like about his/her job?
• What he/she wants to change in the company?
