Writing about a decade.

The decade from 2000 to 2010 was a decade which people remember for many reasons. There were difficult times for the big crisis that it continues now and for many wars that took place in African countries, for example in Libya. There were also good times and happy events and a lot of music festivals.
Steve Jobs invented a now brand of gadgets in apple. It was a great success and now a lot of people have an Iphone or an Imac or something of this brand.
In the world of music, now there are a lot of famous singers, not like before that there were three of four famous bands of music.
In cinemas, there were a lot of changes. The pixels ofthe TV are better, now you can watch films in 3D, the films are more real...
By the end of the decade the world was different. The technology is more sophisticated, it's incredible! But by the end of the decade a big crisis appeared around the world and it continues now. It's an important bad success for everybody and we must do everything to change this.
