  2. Hi Paula¡
    . My answers to the questions are:

    1 - I think if anyone would like to thank the people would turn nasty and selfish.

    2 - I think it's important as well to thank the person who helps others, is grateful and would do more often.

    3 - I give thanks every time I help a friend or family ... to solve a problem or make a decision. when I give thanks I feel good because it means that someone helped as probablemnte when you need it also will give you the. .

    4 - yes. Thank hard times as well ask for help, pro if you do not stop to help or perhaps anything else.

    5-I am grateful to my family, my friends ... Specifically for people who are there and you will not fail.

  3. 1) It would be a bad world because nobody would not to help anyone. It would be more and everyone would feel alone.

    2) Because it’s not difficult say only two words and the person who helped you really likes to hear that you appreciate what that person has done for you. It’s important say “thank you” too because when the person who helped you is happy for listen “thank you” probably that person will help you again when you need something.

    3) I remember when my sister Paula had to do lots of homework and the next day she had two very important tests. I was very tired because I came home from playing sports and I didn’t sleep well that night. Paula had not time to study and finish her homework so she started to cry. I help her with their homework and told her different ways so she could study faster. Finally she finished everything and she thanked me for helping her. I felt good when my sister thanked me because although I was tired I was happy too because she said thank you and probably if she had not told me "thanks" I would be very angry or maybe I would be disappointed.

    4) For me, gratitude is very important because it marks the difference between feeling good about yourself after helping someone and not wanting to help anyone because those people don’t appreciate your help.

    5)

    1. I said “thank you” for gifts
    2. I said “thank you” for surprises
    3. I said “thank you” when someone calls me when I’m sick
    4. I said “thank you” when I couldn’t do anything alone and someone helps me.
    5. I said “thank you” when someone came with me somewhere
    6. I said “thank you” when people remember me when they are far away

  4. 1.) The world would be more egoist,and then peoble would reject to do favours to each other.
    2.) It is important because it permits people to express there feeling and to pay in a way for having recived a favour.
    3.) When I helped to muy best friend for her german exam, she thanked it a lot and I was satisfied whith the work I had done.
    But another time I supported a schoolfellow
    of mine and she wasn´t gratefull at all, so that I decided to help her never again.
    4.)I think that this is very important because it create a affective relation between the wan who gives and the one who becomes.
    5.) I`m gratefull for going to a school like the preu.
    I`m gratefull for having a lot of friends.
    I`m gratefull for having enough money to be able to live comfortable.
    I`m gratefull for having people around who love me.
    I`m gratefull for having a very nice english teacher.

  5. Hi Paula
    respect to the questions i´m going to write my answer:
    1 I think that now a lot of people don`t say thank you and that it isn`t very polite and if the other person says thank he or she would feel better and grateful.
    2To the other person feeling well and grateful wiht his action.
    3I was in a restaurant and to a man fall over a bank note of ten euros and i teld to the man and he picked up his money.i was feeling bad because if i was quiet i could picked up the money later.if he didn`t say thank i would have upset me.
    4yes , of course say thank is very important because the people feel better

  6. 1. What would the world be like if no one ever said "Thank you"?

    I can´t imagine a world where no one say thank you. I´m sure that is something that comes out in a very natural way. For example a child of 1 year old won’t understand you if you try to explain him that to be polite he must say thank you, if you a nice with him he will answer giving you a hug or a kiss that deepens on the child because that is the only way he knows of saying thank you.

    2. Why is it important for people to give thanks?

    Because if not they will give a negative impression with the other person and is something that anybody likes.

    3. Tell about a time when someone thanked you for something. How did you help them? How did you feel when they thanked you? How would you have felt if they hadn't said thank you?

    The last time somebody thanked me for something was my brother a few hour ago. I spented some time with him teaching some maths, because of that he is ill couldn’t go to school. I felt really good we I saw that he understood the lesson and told me thank you. I’m not sure about if I would help him again if he wouldn’t said thank you.

    4. Do you think it's important to express appreciation? Why or why not?

    Yes I think is very important expressing appreciation can bring us calm and will also help us with our family members and friends.

    2)it´s very important because it´s a form to tell to other person you´re grateful
    3)once i helped a woman with two heavy bags.I wasnt very good because if i help her the minimun is to say thanks

    5)I´m grateful for my friends,family,the posibility to be in this school...

    -The other day a friend of mine could not understand a thing he said the teacher and I learned that if I had to explain because it was so and how it was done, the truth is that you feel very well may help others, if he doesn't says thanks , he is a ungrateful

    4.Do you think it's important to express appreciation? Why or why not?

    -yes, it is very important to thank someone who helps you because it is well born to be grateful, the other person is not obliged to help.

  10. HiPaula!
    1.What would the world be like if no one ever said "Thank you"?
    The word thank is one of the most used nowadays. Young people and adults use it. This word means the gratefulness to a person that has helped us. If we did not thank for something, it would be more difficult and complicated to help people.

    2.Why is it important for people to give thanks?
    Using this word is very important because it is a way of being grateful for something! In addition we will be better seen by the everyone and it is a sign of our good education.

    3.Tell about a time when someone thanked you for something. How did you help them? How did you feel when they thanked you? How would you have felt if they hadn't said thank you? Sometimes, I take my friends to his homes by motorbycle because they live far and do not have motorbycle!They always are grateful to me for it.If they didnt do this, i would go home without them.

    4.Do you think it's important to express appreciation? Why or why not?
    It is very important because mot been grateful is a sign of weakness, not of strengt and it is a way of demonstrating that we are polite.

    5.Brainstorm a list of things you are grateful for.
    I give thanks to my parents and my friends because they have help me in many moments. THANKS
