This is what I learnt:


Cánovas del castillo

This statue is an honoring to Cánovas del Castillo who born in Málaga in February, 8th of August in 1828 and died in Mondragón in 1897. 
He was a politician and Spanish historian, president of the Cabinet during most of the last quarter of the 19th century. It was one of the most influential figures of Spanish politics. 
He was a member of the Liberal Union. In 1854 he was elected deputy by Málaga for the Constituent ones and, to the fall of O'Donnell, governing civilian of Cádiz. He was the secretary of Government in 1864 and of Overseas in 1865 during the reign of Isabel II before the First Spanish Republic be proclaming. After the Revolution of 1868 and end of the Bourbon monarchy it took charge preparing the return of the one that would be Alfonso XII, Isabel II's son.

Cánovas died murdered on August 8th, in 1897 in "El Balneario of Santa Águeda".

In 1975, Málaga's town hall raised a monument in honoring to this politician of Málaga and in 2009 was installed a plate in his honor.

The monument was made by the sculptor Jesús Martínez Labrador, who is from Antequera. 
It's located in Cánovas del Castillo Avenue and it's and the entrance of Málaga's Park because he was one of the promoter of this construction.

It was open in 1975 such a tribute to him, but before this date, the monument stayed almost a year enclosed in a storehouse due to the newspaper said it wasn't the time to open a monument of someone that restored the monarchy, when a dictatorship was controlling the country. 

The monument has a strange face because the sculptor was inspired by a caricature.

CAMPAIGN LEAFLET Task 9

 Poverty

Poverty is one of the most serious problems in our planet. A lot of people don't have money to have a house, for health or even for food.Even in some countries they don't have any vegetacion due to the limited rains so they don't have too much food.
We can help all this people creating ONG. This is the fastest way, when you create a ONG people give money to them and it's easier to bring that money to the families in those countries.

My Christmas Story.#Task 6

CHRISTMAS STORY 3
Martín, an unemployed father of three children has been looking for a job for over a year with little success. His situation is really desperate: he has no money to pay for his rent, or his children`s school books and clothes. If they don`t go hungry it`s thanks to some help from relatives.
One day, Martín goes to the toilet at the railway station. He then notices a briefcase propping against the wall. He picks it up and opens it. He can`t believe his eyes: the briefcase contains a lot of money. At first he thinks he is a lucky man. He thinks that all that money will solve his problems but after a few minutes he is not so sure about it all. There`s a big doubt in his head. Should he keep it? When he arrived home he decided to talk with her wife about what they should do:
-Good evening family , how are you? I... I have to talk to you, nothing important.-He looks to her wife.
-What is going on Martín?
-I have just found this, what are we going to do?
Her wife can't believe it.
-I... I don't know, well... I mean we can keep it, right? Martín we are going over a bad situation and that briefcase didn't have a name, so ... maybe it is a gift from who knows? A Christmas' gift! You decide Martín. 
-I think you are right, maybe somebody was very unselfish in this time of the year and he wanted to give happiness to someone and he did it. So let's celebrate!
