The Positive Effect of Hurricanes that humans create on Corals

Abstract
The subject of this research is the benefits of hurricanes that humans create because of the pollution on coral reefs. It explains that hurricanes can save the population of corals from death. The research gives three supportive points. First, the temperature of the ocean decreases when a hurricane comes; second, hurricanes relieve bleaching on corals, and finally, hurricanes’ effects on the principal cell that lives inside corals are positive.

Google

Google is my favorite technology field, because it is a complete website; I can find papers, photos, and videos; also it has its own e-mail. Gmail. Before Google I used Altavista; it is another finder. But, my problem was the language; almost every article or paper was in English, so it was complicated for me in that time, because my English was less than basic. Another advantage of Google is that every country has its own website, for example in www.google.cl (Chile). I can search for Chilean writers, articles, photos, and more. But, I also have the possibility of searching documents in other languages. Google bought YouTube, this is an advantage too, because everything is in the same site; it is easier.

Fluency #4. Facebook

A few months ago I was talking with a friend and she told me about Facebook. That same day I went to my computer and I created an account. It seemed complicated because of the language, but now it is easy. On Facebook we can do different things, such as chatting, uploading photos and videos, answering quizzes and more applications; it is not boring, because every day there is something new. The good quality of Facebook is that it is private, you have to confirm your friends if they want to see your account. I use it because it is fun, also it is more comfortable when I want to share my pictures; instead of sending my photos to all my friends I can upload them in my account and then they can see them. Moreover, now that I am not in Chile, my friends and family can know about me and my recent adventures in Carbondale. However, sometimes it is addictive, but if we have the ability to control our anxiety, it is not bad.
