Task 9
WRITE A DESCRIPTION ABOUT YOUR FAVORITE HERO OR HEROINE
Spider-Man is the quintessential Marvel character. Although a super hero, he is spared
none of the slings and arrows of ordinary life; he experiences difficulties with friends,
family, sweethearts and employers. His powers enable him to do good, but not to
improve his own lot in life, and it is his simple humanity, rather than his exotic talent,
that has won him millions of enthusiastic fans. He is one super-hero who has not lost

33. the common touch, and in fact he is frequently described as "your friendly
neighborhood Spider-Man." In his 1962 debut, Spider-Man took to fighting crime for a
reason commonplace in comc books: he was motivated by the murder of a father figure,
his Uncle Ben. Yet Spidey's driving force is guilt, not revenge; he must live forever with
the knowledge that he could have prevented the killing if he had not been so self
absorbed. Perhaps he suffers from a classic Oedipus complex; in any case he is
certainly neurotic, forever agonizing over the choices that confront him when he
attempts to do the right thing. Despite his best efforts, he is viewed with a touch of
suspicion by those in authority, and is sometimes considered little more than a criminal
himself.
Although nobody seems to understand him, Spider-Man has the spirit to be a joker as
well as a tragic figure. He is quick with a quip, appreciates the irony of his endless
predicaments, and relishes the chance to play tricks on people who never suspect that
he and Peter Parker are one and the same. as originally depicted by writer Stan Lee
and artist Steve Ditko, Peter Parker was just a bit of a wimp. Bright, imaginative, but
nonetheless an alienated adolescent, he might well have been a typical comic book
reader. Although he has matured and gained in confidence over the years. Spidey is still
all to human. He misses appointments, catches the flu when he needs to fight, forgets to
put film in his camera and has trouble paying the rent. In short Spider-Man remains
Everyman, "the super hero who could be you."

My dreams are usually weird things, but there is a real dream that I can not forget. It
was horrible. In my dream I went to a cemetery when evening fell, in the middle of it
was a large dome. Then I was addressed to her and between. There was a very long and
narrow hallway, full of rooms next to each other, were brightly lit, every room had a
coffin on the floor with the dead in, I remember that I saw everything very clear.
Down the hall was a very huge curtain of black velvet, was very thick and heavy, when
I could run a little look at some mid illuminate a living room with many windows red
and some coffins in the ground, and truth I can remember what was in those windows,
then wanted to get out of that room and could not find the exit, and there I started to
panic when he finally gets out to a long hallway and started to run.
Then I realized that the cemetery had closed the door and I could not get out, and in my
desperation I left running like crazy towards mount earth or something and this was too
high to jump the great wall of the cemetery, on top Mount had a gazebo i or as little
rusty iron construction and is there when I started to climb the little hill and this is to as
mud and I began speaking to sink my arms and legs and so was already feeling the
corpses that had there underground and could not find the way out of there and every
time is to overnight and I scared each time more, until no where appeared a friend and
helped me out of there and told me to take good care that this cemetery is very
dangerous and then I woke up and it was a dream but very ugly, tense, felt so real but I
finally woke up.
Task 15

in a rural area of the Province of Carchi. Young people brought their books tied with rope and
were rushing because they were late for their homes because they had delayed leaving the
University.
Missing about 20 minutes until the sun went down and just came to an old stone bridge that
normally crossed a shallow river but which at that time was swollen due to a storm. They were
walking normally when they noticed a strange light in the shadows of the water, zigzag
hacienda was in the river and moving slowly toward them.
When they reached the middle of the bridge could clearly see the figure of a ghost, a ghost that
floated on the water, holding a trunk, a being without a face and long black hair. Young people
fear paralyzed and do not remember anything else, just that appeared wet and books were gone.
