    First of all, I want to say that it's a bit difficult to understand the journalist. It can be for the environment, I don't know. I understood the main idea, and people comments and I don't agree with them. I think that is very beautiful to have a baby (give life), but not always is a happy fact. A lot of teenagers make pregnant for a mistake and I think that is normal that they want to abort. Why do we condemn this girls to have a baby? They must be happy, and probably if one of this girls has a baby, the baby will be always with his grandmother.
    So please think in it!

  2. I don't agree with all this people and their protest.

    I think their opinions are based on a religious points of view, not on scientific evidence.

    Lot of these people have not knowledge about embriology and their opinions are not argued correctly.


    If somebody doesn't want to abort, she doesn't have to do it. So, where is the problem?!

    I prefer a less restrictive law based on science evidences and, depending about the diferents points of view (religion, ethic, education...), that each person choise.

  4. Hi Alba S.,

    Good comprehension and pretty fluent writing, but be careful with leaving out the subject (it), this-these, and verb choice (make pregnant). Also, you think ABOUT something.

  5. Hi Oriol,

    Very good expressions and comprehension. Be careful on singular-plural ideas "a religious points" and "lot of these people". Also, there are two literal translations: "science evidences" and "diferents points of view". Finally, the verb is "chooses".

  6. Hi Adriano,

    As long as you get the main idea, that´s great. Careful with misspelled words (ideia, abosorve, triyng).
