Formal Writing #2 [La Paz]

El articulo sobre voces de la paz. Este un día internacional de la paz en Colombia. Los colombianos les gustan preventar violencias en las comunidades y mejorar sus vidas. En la ceremonia del día internacional de la paz, el secretario toca la compara de la paz. La ceremonia celebra en 21 de Septiembre. Antes de ceremonia, el secretario pronuncia un mensaje de paz y pide que se guarde un minuto. Por concluido, los dos artículos son similares cuando sobre paz. Dos artículos quieren paz en nuestro mundo.
Pienso que el día de paz es muy importante porque todos no necesitan violencias. Necesitamos paz en todos partes del mundo. Paz es muy bien y ojala que nosotros recibimos paz en nuestra vida.
