Read the newspaper article. What is it about?
The article talks about the annual festival Sant Narcís. Sant Narcís saved Girona from the French troops and that's the reason why every year Girona is celebrating a very big festival.
There are over 300 activities, for example correfocs, a procession of gegants and of course the fira with a lot of attractions.
Which events/activities did you take part in? (October 2008)
I went with friends to the fira. We went to the attractions which were very funny. To eat something we went to the barraques.

Description of a person
Hello everybody!
I'd like to describe my brother Matthias, he's 15 years old.
He's got short brown hair and a slender face. His eyes are blue and half-moon shaped. His nose and lips are quite slender, too.
Matthias is the tallest one in our family. (About 1.80m, 25cm more than I am amd I am two and a half years elder.) He enjoys it to stand at my side, look down on me and joking about my shortness.
How is my brother? First of all, he's a very funny person. For all opportunities and situations he knows a suitable joke. That's one of his talents: He can joke about almost everything.
Another talent is his great memory. He remembers most birthdates, including the year of birth, from our relatives and friends.
And he knows almost complete shows of Swiss comedians by heart and is able to imitate them very good.
Without an doubt, my brother an I have a lot of fun together.
Matthias likes to do experiments an sometimes this can be a little dangerous.
And if he and the boys in the neighbourhood made any idiocy, you always know who had the stupid ideas.
He likes it too, playing soccer. He isn't in a club, but with the boys in the neighbourhood (and with our nine-year-old sister) he plays almost every day.
He gets along very well with children. One afternoon in the week, he's the baby-sitter of a three-year-old boy.
One of his hobbies is swimming. He's in a club for two years and I think he likes it very much.
Another of his hobbies is that he's in the organisation called "Jungwacht". That's an organisation just like the scouts. They meet every second Saturday an do a lot of things together. And in the summer holidays the organise a camp.
What he doesn's like is to work for school. In that case he's very lazy, altough he gets good marks.
Of course I have a lot of arguments with him. However I like it very much to spend time with him, because we can talk about almost everything and we share the same interests.
