reacción frente a alguna situación o tema.

A: the first text (page 9) has a general English type, similar to a life diary, she
narrates about her daily routine, when she wakes up, when she has
breakfast, her work routine, etc. It can be classified as general English,
because of the language he uses, since it is a common and simple vocabulary.
It relates a simple situation that anyone could narrate.
The second text (page 10) is a scientific text whose language is academic
English, since it uses more technical language, such as sulphonamides,
polypeptides, aminoglycosides, etc. These words are not used in a casual
conversation, but in formal situations to report on a specific topic, such as a
scientific talk.

academic English (my major/field of study description). Elaborate in English.
my routine is currently not very varied by the quarantine of the city, but I still
get up in the mornings for breakfast while I give food to my cat, then I think
about the ones I'm going to cook in the afternoon and then I contact my
friends to play.
Well now with college admission you've changed the routine a little bit, now I
wake up earlier for my classes, see the homework I have to do for the next
few days and no longer play very often with my friends.
