 Reflection paper
Hello, my full name is Aylin Suggey Callañaupa Bautista. I was born in January 2004, I live
with my parents, sister and my cute pets in Lurin. I study Economy in UNMSM, I’m in the 1st
semester. The fact that I live in southern Lima and study at UNMSM which is located near to
Callao, make my days exhausting. Therefore, along with my parents, we have been
considering that I move closer to the university with a couple of Friends to split the rent.
I started studying english when I was 12 years old at ICPNA in kids level because at my new
high school I had 6 hours of English a week compared to my old primary school where I had
1 hour and I didn’t learn much. Due to the change of school, I was very shocked that my
grades in that course were below average and I didn’t like that at all, so I asked my parents to
take English classes. The fact that I’m still at Icpna is not because I have repeated courses but
rather that I postpone it until the last month of tolerance so as not to lose my progress.
Nowadays, it is essential to learn English because it gives you a great advantage in the
business world also in the personal World when you want to travel and they don’t speak the
same language as you, English helps you to communicate.
Focus on the topic
 UNIT 4
1. Yes, I think it is a kind of intelligence, they also understand us and can distance themselves from people as well
as wanting to show us that they can also do kind of things like us
2. No, because every animal have the same capacity but according to the situation they live, some of them
develop more than others.
3. Chimpanzees because they have a high intellectual capacity, they can do several things and reason like humans.
Elephants because they have a great memory and they are able to self-medicate recognizing which plant to
eat.
Finally, the Dolphin because the level of their communication is over up to others, they can easily communicate
with different species.
 UNIT 5
1. Yes, because if you are the type of person the love to see their family generation it could be posible to
do it. You would see more than five generations. Also you could take advantage at study majors you
want.
2. Yes, according to Harry Potter saga, everyone searched the philosopher’s Stone that grants immortality to
whoever possesses it. That’s why Dumbledore protected the stone with a lot of security.
3. Yes, I’ve always wanted to save enough money to take my parents to visit the whole World and give
them all the care they deserve for raising me, and by living twice as long I could achieve that goal.
 UNIT 6
1. I think they are planting some crops or maybe they are repairing someone’s garden.
2. They learn a lot of things about nobility, feeling grateful for having the things they have they voule it much
more, also they become more aware and empathic to those around them.
3. Not yet, but I have always wanted to volunteer at beach cleanups or animal shelters. The first one because I’m
aware of human actions those who don’t care about the enviroment knowing the consecuences of it, we have
to care our planet if it ends overexploited we won’t have other planet to live. The second one because I’m a fan
of animals, if I could give all my money to all the shelters, I would do it with pleasure, thanking those who care
for the helpless animals who are looking for another chance at life.

 UNIT 4
1. What is the main idea or thesis? What issues are discussed?
- Numerous animals have extreme perception which can help humans or surprise them with their behaviors or acts. It is mentioned about forensic dogs,
seizure alert dogs and a particular horse whose owner thought he could count.

2. Who wrote the article or passage? Who were the people mentioned in the article?
-This article was written by Temple Grandin and Catherine Johnson. It is mentioned two cases which are about Connie Standley and Wilhelm von Osten.

3. Where can seizure alert dogs and forensic dogs help?

- Thanks to their advanced perceptual abilities. Both are very helpful to humans, the first one in the health area predicting a seizure before it starts and the
second one in the security area sniffing out contraband, drugs or explosives.

4. Why did Clever Hans's owner think his horse could count?
-Because when the owner presented him a mathematical problem, even a long question, Clever Hans tapped out the answer with his hoof and got it
right.

5. When was it known that Clever Hans didn't really count?

- A psychologist demonstrated that Hans was observing subtle, unconscious cues the humans had no idea they were giving off.

6. How do the actions of both animals show a sign of high intelligence?

- The animals didn’t need to do what they were doing, but they choose to. They used their cognitive and perceptual skills to resolve a problem with their
own ways.

THE HIGH ANIMAL INTELLIGENCE
Numerous animals have extreme perception which can help humans or surprised them with their behaviors or acts. It
is mentioned about forensic dogs, seizure alert dogs and a particular horse whose owner thought he could count.
With the jobs some dogs have using their advanced perceptual abilities you will notice the approach of true cognition
that solves problems under unique conditions.

Seizure alert dogs use their advanced perceptual abilities to predict a seizure before it happens, according to their
owners; and the dogs that act once the seizure has started are known as seizure response dogs. But some of these
dogs have gone from responding to seizures to perceiving them ahead of time, indeed one study found that there are
10% of owners whose dogs had become seizure alert dogs. Both are very helpful to humans protecting them.

The case of the German horse called Clever Hans whose owner thought he could count and solve mathematical
problems, even a long question, it was demonstrated that the questioners were making unconscious movements
which only Hans could see it. Hans has in common with the seizure alert dogs is that both acquired their traits
without any human help. These animals did not need to do what they were doing but they choose to, they use their
cognitive and perceptual skills to solve a problem with their own ways.

DREAM LIFE
Waking up in this future era is awesome. The vigorous barking of my pets from my door relieves me
because, thanks to advanced science, I know that their lives will last as well as mine. Utterly
unbelievable people live until 400 years old as if we were rocks due to no disease affects us. Just
imaging to still have the people you love with all your heart and giving them all they deserve makes
me believe that universe smiled at me.
Thinking in love is this time is a lost of time. If you have trouble in love, you just must forget it,
This problem is a grain of sand on the beach that's why I don't care about it, and I have decided to
improve my career. It is better to take advantage of the time and take more about yourself. I have
studied everything related to finances and international trades as quick as a flash to know more about
global business. Thanks to that I have been traveling to every corner of this world and I have bought
houses in each country.
My life has been an endless adventure filled with immeasurable happiness and success; I can't
complain. It’s the life I’ve always dreamed of.
