Today I will write about my performance in many activities to practice to next English´s Final Test.

I think that the vocabulary section is my best ability, because I get good marks, for example by the topic hobbies and leisure I get 10/10 points and for education and clothes topic I was wrong on two options from all. It´s very easy to get better in this ability.
But, on the reading activities I didn´t get a lot of points. For example, on the first test I get 3/10 points; on the second quiz I get 1/5 points and on the third test I get 6/11 points. I think that it´s is a topic that I must to improve a lot. I should be more concentrated and to put more focus on the keywords.
About my listening abilities, I get 1/6 points and 3/6 points. For this, I must to improve and practice more to watch videos and others activities. Listen more variety of sounds and be focus too.

Ultimately, about my speaking skills I think if I learn keywords about general topics and practice the tense and grammatical forms, I should be relax to my next oral interaction. Besides I must practice some dialogues with my classmate to get a good mark.

Flexiworkers and Technologies


The article that I founded is about to work outside the workday. For example when we could receive a lot of e mails and answer everything in every time. One of reasons that we feel pressure could be that we feel responsible to work even if this activity (to answer e mail) don´t meaning extra salary.
Then the article mentions the work´s experiences from differences European countries that have a 45 hours in average (UK, Greece) and put the example to France (35 hours of work) or Swedes (6 hours of workday). Also, the writer says that there are a culture of 24 hours of work that it impede us not answer.
The new show a lot of opinions about to swift off the mobiles because this equipment allow for remove the work limits. Besides it advice that we could put own limits to other about to receive work on leisure time and rest.
On the other hand the article mention about the modern economy that pressure us to compete in vary of social topics front ourselves. With this, the current economic model is incompatible with time of rest and demand more time to people. It considers to workers like every time available under the job´s transformations called as Flexitime.

I read this column because is a very important topic to sociology of work: the homeworkers and flexiworkers too. Currently there are many cases about people that work during travel home or at home. This situation is very common for all new technologies that it allow us to be connect all the time.  Sometimes the workers feel pressure about to have to responses every time to not lose the job or the boss´s confidence. This is another kind of exploitation in the capitalism model. And I ´m agree with the advices from articles about the responsibility that we have to put limits to work and our time of rest.
