Contributing to the blog. Expressing your opinion.

The adjective "unsightly" came up in the class as did the noun "an eyesore" Is "visual pollution" important? It seems to be in Sao Paulo, one of the most atmospherically polluted cities in the world, where advertising on buildings has been banned....no giant photos of Ronaldo! Do you have any objection to advertising hoardings (there's one in Spain which has become a cultural icon and is protected from being destroyed) ugly buildings or graffiti for example? Graffiti is an particlarly interesting topic....is it art or vandalism, ugly or beautiful? Have you heard of "Banksy"? Try contributing to the blog by discussing any of the above. You won't be assessed on this but it will develop you powers of expression in English. Alternatively open up a topic of your choice.
