Do you agree or disagree with the following statement? One should never judge a person by external appearances. Use specific reasons and details to support your answer.

There are many people that judge other people only by their external appearance. Do you know that it can hurt you if you are this other person?

On the one hand, it isn´t good because you can make mistakes and it prevents you to meet new people who can be very nice and funny and one day you would be the best friend. For example; when you see a gipsy with his typical appearance wearing gold rings, necklaces and another pieces of jewelry, you simply cross the road and walk faster than before because you think that he can hurt you; but you don´t know who is hurting is you. This is a typical example when you judge a person by external appearances. Similarly, you do the same when you see vragants, tramps, ''kies'', petty thiefs, dirty people, drunks, foreigners (particularly an Arabian person, people from Eastern Europe like Romania...)...

On the other hand, it´s good because better safe than sorry; in other words, you can´t trust in everybody because there are really bad people in the world. For example; one of the last cases is Marta del Castillo, who was murdered by her boyfriend and the boyfriend´s friends, is still missing. It happened because she didn´t choose well; the boyfriend seems a gipsy but she loved it, and because that you should be careful.

In conclusion, you shouldn´t judge a person by external appearances, but you should choose very good your friends and you should be careful too.

DEC, a TV programm from Tele5, tried the Marta del Castillo´s case.

The public transport

The public transport is an other form to travel and move around the city without products that can produce pollution to the atmosphere. The goverment rest it because everybody things that it's a good form to look after the atmosphere and they win a lot of money too.

The main advantage of the public transport is that they look after the atmosphere. But it's have a lot of advantages more, for example you can go to the gym or to work in bus or taxi or even in bicycle here in seville, if you don't have eighteen years old to have a car or if your parents can't take you because they are working. The public transport, to fix the bicycle, is good to bargain the traffic jam and like that you can arrive early in your objetive.

But the public transport have his desadvantage too. For example is normaly that the transport that take you to your destiny will be slower that if you get your car and go here, for example you will arrive later in your work if you go in bus or in bicycle that if you go in your car. An other disadvantages that I conceived is that the public transport overcoat the taxis, are very expensive, because if you go for example since the cathedral until the Betis Stadium you can pay about fifteen euros and it's too much.

So I thing that yes , the public transport is a very good solution for peoples that don't have any form to move around the city, but if your have ,overcoat a motorcycle, other sistem to move around the city , I things that is a better option that the bus or another public transport.
