  2. I would like to start this section sharing with you an extremely funny video with subtitles. It´s the last humouristic act of Jeff Duham and his puppet Achmed, the dead terrorist

    Also I have found an interesting piece of new in CNN.com about a new material called “BIOCHAR” that could cut CO2 levels in the future. It could be a good idea for our speaking exam…

    See you!
