IS THERE LIFE ON OTHER PLANETS?

     Whether life exists or not in other planets has been one of the main concerns of humans throughout time. Since ancient times people has questioned themselves about the mystery of the universe and the posibility of not being aloone in it. Though not direct evidence of extraterrestrial life has been discovered, there are many reasons to believe that other forms of life, other than humans, is out there.
       To begin with, one of the main reasons to support that there is life on other planets is the univer´s immensity. Thanks to the work of scientists and the latests improvements in technology we were able to get a closer look tat how huge the universe is. We were able to find the exstence of planets with similar conditions to the Earth, other galaxies and solar systems, and that led the posibilities of finding other kinds of life to a higher  level. Moreover, scientist´s studies have proven that there are species which can survive in radically different conditions than ours, as for example without oxygen. This fact lights up the possibility of some type of life evolving ina a planet with different conditions.
     However many people argue against this possiblility by claiming that it has taken millions of years for life to evolve in the planet Earth and this was the consequence of several conditions which are present in the Earth, for example the impirtant role of the moon which satables the Earth´s axis helping control our climate, or the distance from the Sun. In addition some argue that if there was life outside our planet, then we should have already found proof, so they claim the lack of evidence to be the reason of arguing against this topic.
    To sum up, the fact of whether there is or not life on other planets can have different points of views and will still be a great concern for humans and a n inspiration for scientists to keep maaking research of the universe. Yet, in my opinion, we should keep our minds open for the possibilities since the universe is so huge that wouldn´t it be too selfish to think that life only exists on Earth and that we are alone?

essay the pudding like a night on the sea

     Essay on "The pudding like a night on the sea"

         "The Pudding like a night on the sea" by Ann Cameron, is about a father who put his sons, Huey and Julian, into a challenge, to see if he could trust them.
           Firstly the father made a pudding for his wife, later on he went to take a nap and he prohibited his sons to eat it, and he asked them to take care of it. With this challenge the father wanted to see if he could trust his sons on something little, so as he could know if he could trust them on something bigger or more important.

         Julian and Huey ate the pudding. When the father woke up he noticed what they had done and he said that there would be some beating and whipping, the two kids thought that his father was going to hit them, but actually he was talking about cooking. He wanted them to make a new pudding. In the first place it shows the children were unfair to their father, but after they regretted what they had done, the father knew that after all, they learned the lesson and he could trust them. The father's method was fair because for example if you break something it is just to repair it.

          As a conclusion the father realised that even though his sons made a mistake the kids were regretful and the accepted the punishment. The next time they won't do it, and that he could trust them.
