Help with checking my grammar in this abstract of my project
The literature points out that companies with better practices of corporate sustainability outperform their counterparts in several characteristics, such as better performance, lower risk and greater transparency in the disclosure of information. The disclosure of sustainable practices by companies around the world has been associated with a greater level of transparency, especially in environmental and social aspects (Siew, 2015) and a way to measure this transparency is through the earnings management (Martinez, 2008). Earnings management, according to Schipper (1989), is a purposeful intervention in the process of presenting the financial data of firms with the intention of obtain some private or personal gain. According to the literature, sustainable companies tend to do less earnings management (Kim, Park, & Wier, 2012). Considering these antecedents, the objectives of the paper are (a) to study the relationship between corporate sustainability and earnings management and (b) investigate the possible effects that the sustainability and transparency could have in the decisions making of the investors when they allocate their capital in a company in the stock market. To achieve the objective (a) there were developed tests and regressions in Brazilian open capital companies from the B3 for the period from 2010 to 2017. On the other hand, to achieve objective (b) was developed an experiment throughout an anonymous opinion survey applied to university students with knowledge and/or experience in finances and/or investments. The results of the investigation related to the objective (a) were that there are not a significant relationship between earnings management and corporate earnings. However, was found significant relationship between earnings management and size and ROA. The results of the investigation related to objective (b) indicates that sustainability and transparency do not affect the decision making of the investors. As the main limitations of the investigation stand out the disproportionality in the number of sustainable companies in the Brazilian stock market and the difficulty of treating the respondents in a homogeneous way regarding to socio-demographic factors.. For future works, it is suggested to relate other variables related to corporate sustainability as social responsibility or environmental impact to the analyses the issues previously exposed

Topic: If you could change one important thing about your hometown, what would you change?
If I could change something of my hometown, would be the garbage dropped in the publics areas. In my Hometown in many corners, streets or even on parks are trash dropped. Many times the trash got there because someone threw it or the garbage truck didn’t pick it up. Whatever the reason, have garbage in a city is very unhealthy and ugly.
The garbage dropped in the public areas are very harmful for the environment of the city and the entire world. This pollute the ecosystem and affect the biodiversity of my town. In addition, when some place have many trash this attracts rats, flies and cockroaches. These kind of animals and insects are very bad for the health of the citizens, because they bring with them many diseases. In my Hometown are neighborhoods that have a lot of trash in the street and the people there have got numerous diseases from rats as hepatitis, this deteriorate the quality of the live of the residents. In other neighborhoods have so much garbage that the whole place stinks.
Another important reason to keep clean my Hometown is for their beauty. When your town has mountains of trash in the street looks very ugly and unhealthy. Is very important to pick up all the trash dropped in streets for improve the beauty of the city, in this way many people would have the desire to visit the city. If you live in a nice and clean city more people would like to live there and this could rise the price of the properties. In addiction many people have restaurants or places to hanging out in my hometown, so they need to have many clients in their stores to earn more money. With a clean, nice and safety place attract people to their business will be easier and will rise the income of the city.
Finally, is very important to keep your hometown clean because the city looks better and the whole environment is benefited. People, animals and plants will have better conditions to develop in a clean habitat and the city will be attractive to more people for visiting.

Topic: Nowadays, food has become easier to prepare. Has this change improved the way people live
I think nowadays people have many options for prepare food easier than many years ago and that have improve the way people live. In the past, if you want to cook you needed wood or carbon to provide of energy your kitchen, whereas in the present, you can introduce an instant soup y your microwave with water and with 3 minutes there the food is ready. This change in people life is very important and became from the science and technology improvements that modify ours cooking equipment, the techniques to prepare food and the kind of food that everybody eat today.
Many years ago, for example in the time of my grandparents around the year 1960 they only could cook with fire, hence they need to search those materials that produce it such as wood or carbon. The search and obtaining of those materials took many worktime and effort. Currently you find kitchens that works even with solar energy and you do not have to spend a lot of work looking for solar energy because it is almost everywhere. In addition, in the present, you can buy some instant food that only require to be heated in a bowl or microwave to be ready for consume. For example, nuggets, soups or pastas. In the past, if you wanted to eat a nugget you should kill a chicken first and prepare the nuggets from zero. Currently you can prepare juice easier than in the past, because you only have to go to the store to buy some little package of juice in powder. In 1920s, you should take the fruit from the tree, peel it and prepare it. Even for cook food today, you do not need to take cooking classes or much preparation because it is very simple.
Those changes in people live related to the preparation of the food made that nowadays the food is more unhealthy than some years ago, therefore today the people suffer more diseases produced for the constant consumption of those easy prepare and fast food that we eat today. In the past all the food prepared in ours grandparent's home was homemade and healthy, while now the food that people prepare easily are produced in factories, with a low quality of the products and with many chemicals components that affect the people live a could create cancer. Furthermore, today are more people diagnosed with cancer than twenty or thirty years ago.

Question: Do you agree or disagree with the following statement * Parents are the best teachers *
I am agree with the statement; because I think that parents are the best teachers that we could have in ours live. That is for these different reasons.
First of all, parents are the responsible of you being in this world and they have taught almost everything that we know nowadays. For example, your parents taught to their children since the most basic things in life as eat, walk and talk until the more important things as values and the profession that you will do in your entire live. I have learned values from my parents as humble, be respectful and tolerant with other people and their way to think.
Many people that have parents that are lawyers, doctors or artists they grew up seeing their parents doing those professions and they learned it. In addition, parents have an unconditional love for their children and they will only try to teach us the best that they know and can.
Secondly, your parents can even know you more than you know yourself, because they have known you and been teaching you since you were a little baby. Parents have taught to their children many things during their completely live. When children were attending kinder garden, high school and even college, they have shown many teachings and valuable advices to their sons and daughters to face those periods of their life in the best way. Parents are always there when you need them without miss, therefore that make them 24/7 teachers, whereas no other teacher works in a schedule like that.
To sum up, parents are the best teachers that everybody could have. They know each of us better than anyone else in this world does. All the parents teachings will be the most worthy ones, because what you have learned for them you will use it the whole live.

I think that people attend to college for three main reason that are to learn, to prepare for life and for personal overcome.
The principal reason that motivates people to attend to university is to learn a profession that they are passionate and they will dedicate on it their life. In addition, to learn techniques and new knowledge to perform well in the labor market, to be excellent professionals and could live from that activity and profession learned at university in a good economic way. In my case I am studying business administration and I hope to work doing audits for huge enterprises all around the world. So, in my university I am learning about accounting, mathematics, management and many things that I need to know to develop that labor.
Secondly, I believe that being in a university is fundamental for preparing for life and beat their challenges. The people who attended to university also develop soft skills, this let them to be better in their life and work. A university student could learn about leadership, effective communication and teamwork while studying in a graduate or post-graduate course and that knowledge may be difficult to earn without attend to a university. In addition, while I was in college I take advantage of that time to be part of a nonprofit organization that does international exchanges, there I worked in the development of many projects and I learned a lot about project and team management.
Finally, attend to university is a personal overcome and a development of the human kind potential, because all the student will face many challenges on their student life that they have to affront and defeat, many academic or personal problems. At the final of the career many student will fell that they have overcome many situations and have reached many goals. All of these experiences develop the personal and professional abilities.

Question:
Do you agree or disagree with the following statement?
People benefit more from traveling in their own country than from traveling to foreign countries.
ANSWER
I am completely disagree with the statement, because for me the people are more benefit and developed more traveling in foreign countries than in their own country. In addition, I have traveled in my country and outside my country and I felt that I benefited more in the foreign trips for the following reasons.
Firstly, when you travel to anther countries you are going to another cultures, this means that you will face with new languages, accents, food, people and society. Learn about those costumes and ways to live is very important for the people, because this make us more tolerant about the different cultures all around the world and also
Secondly and very important for me as a languages lover is the possibility to learn or practice new languages. When you travel abroad, you could practice new languages that you could not practice in your home country. In addition, you will develop your skills in some languages more in that country that you traveled than in any place in your home country. I had studied portugues them I did an internship in Brazil. In my time there, I improve my portuguese a lot, because I have to talk with native speakers every day.
Another very worth reason is while you are in a foreign country you will be outside of your comfort zone and develop your skills, because you are facing to a new environment that you are not used to live. This is a big challenge because you have to do new things and get accustomed about how the other person act. During my internship in Brazil, I face many new things as languages, transportation system, food, people and everything. This experience developed a lot my soft skills.
Finally, travel in foreign countries is an excellent way for develop skills and have amazing expediencies an this benefit a lot more the people than travel in your native country.
