- 14. PORTFOLIO ENGLISH ADVANTAGES AND DISADVANTAGES IN THE SCHOLARSHIP Advantages For many students is one of the best experiences of their lives, although not all advantages. Get a scholarship means for many first-time independent living abroad for a year. Get a scholarship is associated with freedom of the student, with new experiences and make friends that can be forever. For a student this kind of stay abroad is a very important incentive, an enriching experience both personally and academically, as many companies’ value students have been studying abroad and have more than one language. Also, personally, helps young people to mature, forcing them to take responsibility for household chores, monthly spending or bureaucratic issues. Disadvantages The students must apply and study even more, trying to overcome the language barrier and accustomed to living away from family, friends and even their partners. It is likely that travel through the culture shock living on two occasions: When entering a new country and welcomes you when you return home. The experience of cultural change can be shocking and strong, however, is easier to handle this issue for some people than others. Take into consideration that there may be difficulties you have faced in the learning process, since they may not get used to your surroundings, especially if it's a different language you speak, and you cannot understand all that you explain. If you are at your university linked to certain activities, such as sports clubs or organizations-political, study abroad can be a hindrance to your performance in these associations, which need your support in one or another form. 13

First I love to travel with my family because they are the most important thing in my life, and in the future if I were to marry my honey moon would be in these cities. I like to travel by train and by plane because I think they are the surest mean sand is a different way to see new places and get out of everyday life. The places that catch my attention more to visit France are: Torre Eiffel, Arco Del Triunfo, Museum del Louvre, Cathedral de Notre-Damme, Palacio de Versalles The things I like to do is explore the city by bike, known as the customs and the people who live there and enjoy the journey itself to be an unforgettable experience. 14

- 17. PORTFOLIO ENGLISH ADVANTAGES AND DISADVANTAGES OF WORKING IN TEAM IN THE UNIVERSITY I N today's society it is important to work together and that this derives a fast and efficient is also an experience of social interaction with people who may be known or not. As students work in teams teaches us to recognize different points of view, enrich our thinking and judgment about different issues and different solutions according to the theme or problem to be treated within this working group can be in the academic- professional or in personal life Teamwork has a goal to achieve and members belonging to the University whether they are students, teachers and workers of the same will be convinced that this is the best way to go. The added value and wealth that distinguishes one group from another come from the diversity of what each member contributes and the communication they use. One of the advantages is the diversity of information, apart from providing various elements; the groups have heterogeneous decision-making process. This gives us the opportunity to have more approaches and to have more alternatives. Modern society appreciates democratic methods. The process of group decision making is in line with democratic ideals and, therefore, is considered more legitimate than decisions made by one person. When you take them does not consult others before reaching a determination, the fact that it has absolute power may give the impression that the decision is autocratic and arbitrary. One of the disadvantages to working in groups is that it takes time to gather a group interaction that takes place after the group meeting is sometimes inefficient. As a result the groups take longer to reach a solution that if an individual drank it. This may reduce the ability of management to intervene immediately with decisive action when needed. In conclusion when working together can achieve many more successes than working individually, and especially as students in tourism and that we will need each other well, the more people are united by a common cause, the result will be more significant. Sometimes you may submit discord between views, but if a team player, these obstacles can be overcome resulting in a final idea that unifies all the views and thereby reaching a result that can enrich increasingly. 16

- 19. PORTFOLIO ENGLISH PASSIVE VOICE The passive voice is formed with the verb to be conjugated plus participle of main verb. English is much more common in Spanish and usually appears when it is not important who performs an action but the fact itself. So he never we see not a passive, we have to translate it literally, as in Spanish sounds more forced. You can only use the passive voice with transitive verbs (verbs that take direct object). ACTIVE VOICE PASSIVE VOICE Tom writes a letter A letter is written by Tom Tom is writing a letter A letter written by Tom IS BEING Tom WAS writing a letter A letter written by Tom WAS Being Tom wrote a letter A letter written by Tom WAS Tom has written a letter A letter written by Tom Has Been Tom HAD letter written to A letter written by Tom HAD Been Tom will write a letter A letter will be written by Tom The acting subject is expressed by. However, in most cases the subject is omitted because we do not want to know who exactly is running the action. If an active sentence has direct and indirect complement, either supplements may be subject to the passive patient: ACTIVE: Someone Gives me a dog PASSIVE 1: A dog is Given to me Passive 2: I am Given a dog The passive form of doing, seeing, etc. is done Being, Being seen, and so on. ACTIVE: I do not like people telling me what to do PASSIVE: I do not like being Told what to do In times when something happens sometimes unexpected, unplanned or incidental to the formation of the passive voice is preferred to use get and not be: get hurt, get annoyed, get divorced, get married, get invited, get bored, get lost Impersonal constructions are typical of the passive and difficult to translate for Spanish speakers. This type of passive construction-used increasingly frequently in the media structure is formed with subject + to be + participle: It is Reported (reportedly) It is said (She said) It is Known (It is known) It is supposed (supposed) It is considered (is considered); It is expected (expected). 18
