One of the things you need to do when you are on board you need to buckle up your seat belt and when you are going to stand up or going off board you need to UN click the belt.

Seconds thing you need to do when the bag of oxygen comes down place it over your mouth and nose it can help you breathe better,

The last thing is that you are not allowed to smoke on board, you might drop the smoke and it will burn and it might cause fire, it might cause everyone to panic.

DAY 2 ACTIVITY 2

Activity 2
One of the most popular activities in Madrid, the capital city of Spain, is called ‘Bullfighting.’ It has been a part of Spanish culture for centuries. In bullfighting people called ‘toreros and ‘matadors’ fight with a live bull. The toreros do most of the fighting and, ultimately, capture the bull and tie it up. Once it has been caught, the matador joins the fight and kills the bull. Although most toreros and matadors are men, there are some women who also compete in the sport.
Not everyone supports bullfighting in Spain. In fact, about 30% of the population want it to be banned (stopped) completely. What do you think? On your blog tell us whether or not you think that bullfighting should be banned in Spain. Please provide, at least, two reasons to support your decision.

REASONS
My reason why we should stop bullfighting is that 40,000 bulls die a year from bullfighting.

We should stop bullfighting because soon or later bulls will be extinct.
