We are becoming overwhelmingly dependent on computers. Is this dependence on computers a good thing or should we be more suspicious of their benefits? With one click on the computer's key opens next of us a world full with thousands of informations, people, skills, virtual worlds, music, films................ Just one click and we travel in all over the world, we can see every floor of the planet Earth and to look what we want. Just one click and you can meet a new friend from every part of the world, to communicate with everyone. Just one click we can destroy all the geographic and cultural barriers. No limits, no waiting. That's the computer or internet "The king of communication and the floor to the world". If in the 20th century, the electricity, the phone, the automobile and the plane made the world accessible about people, the same revolutionary influence in the starting of this century exists the computer or the internet. Millions of people with same interests check informations and build organizations on internet online on websites, e-mail and different softwares. Companies communicate to eachother, the scientists check ideas, doctors help with operations in the other side of the world, brokers buy shares, newspapers from all over the world are available, making friendship, buying and selling products etc.... Communication with everyone and on every part of the world is cheap and fast like a friend from my hometown. With the internet we can buy and sell, employing the people, communicating with many organizations, countries and governments. On this window the younger population from all over the world make friendship and this world we have on our palm. With one word, we can talk that we are dependent of computers and our life is unthinkable without these. But, sometimes we must look the computer with doubt, to know that it isn't omnipotent. In the world are many teenagers who know to stay online on the computer about hours and days to navigate on this sea without limits of informations. These are the young children who know to isolate in their rooms, who don't go away, to living, to staying with friends. Some of the internet games could be infectious and dangerous for teenagers. Many users could steal informations from softwares. We, who live in the technology's epoch or internet revolutionary time, must use internet and we must don't allow their influence on our lifes.

Forests are the lungs of the earth. Should the rain forests destruction be prohibited? How is it possible to protect forests? When the people breath, they receive oxygen and emmited carbon dioxide. Without oxygen we couldn't live. This oxygen we receive from the green spaces but very a lot from the forests. The green plants when breath, receive carbon dioxide, emmited oxygen and clean the air from this gas to put the oxygen because we need for us. That's the reason the forests are lungs of the Earth. Over these big green spaces, our planet breaths and lives. But, the person doesn't have conscientious attention abour our green gold and does he knows to keep this treasure for his good? Today we are witnesses about destroying big spaces of forests about industrial needs and firewood. Every summer the fire destroys thousands hectars of forests and a big number of fires are deliberately done of negligent people and that's a big kind of criminal. Mountains and hills are empty, without forests, nobody destroys the carbon dioxide who product our cities, we are more poor about the oxygen what we're need. Because, the destruction of forests must be prohibited and it's possible to protect the forests. In the legislation must be exist rigorous penalties for all of them who illegally destroy the forests. To protect the forests we need education from small legs, it does it mean that the children must learn when they are little, because the forests are the biggest treasure to protect because are lungs of the Earth. Trimmed and Burnt forests we must change with planting new trees about new forests. Big example about this is our small country Macedonia whose these last years made many actions about afforestation of our mountains when millions of young trees planted in all over the country and Macedonia gave a good example to the Balkans and all over the world how to protect and update the forests.

Should we do more to deal with the problem of domestic violence, or is the problem exaggerated? Almost every day on TV we listen and look many kinds of violence. One of the most critical is the domestic violence, this kind what happens between four walls, inside in the family. About this kind of violence the people are silent, but in last time a lot of people have courage to report and speak publicly about the violence that is exercised on them within the family. Most victims of the domestic violence are also women and children always the old people. The women are psychologically and physically abused by their husbands or other male family members. The children are most victims of physically abusing by one or both of the parents. Also the pedophilia is in a big rise about we listen in every single day these informations in public. The old, sick and helpless people are most abused by their sons who don't help the helpless people, they take their money and even beat. For all of them like the other kinds of violence, it needs to working very hard to stop these crime's cases. The domestic violence also happens to the low social's level of people in conditions of underdeveloped economy and a low level of education. The best prevention against the domestic violence is to developing the economy, big percentage of employment and high level of education. If sometimes the people lied of shame, fear and other reasons today we should to report to the police and social organizations who help and protect the victims from domestic violence. But, here exist many SOS telephones and the victims can phone and report the violence to finding the help what they need. On these telephones, always many women and children need help.

Should drivers of automobiles be prohibited from using cellular phones? About the car accidents exist many reasons which on the first position are high speed, driving when the person is drunk, not respecting the traffic conditions and rules etc. But today exists a big reason about these accidents is the mobile phone. The driver also loses concentration when he drives and the mobile phone rings. When he talks on mobile, his concentration is low but very worse is if hears some bad news or an unpleasant conversation, because the current stress can cause losing attention, could cause material damage and especially the loss of innocent lives. Because of that when the driver sits in his car, first he must turn off his mobile phone and if we want to talk, always we must park the car forward. In a lot of countries are exist many laws what prohibite to the drivers to not using the mobile phones when they drives and is punishable by law. Because of that I think where these laws doesn't exist, thanks to the unconscientous drivers who with one hand drive the automobile and with the other hand holds the mobile phone to talking, also happen terrible accidents where many people lose their lives.

Should the cigarettes smoking be banned as heroin consumption? Today we live in one world and one period where do govern big weaknesses who destroy a lot of young lives. And other who asks himselves who are the weaknesses in this new period, really that are drug and alcohol. These two weaknesses are connected with young people, whose could open a danger dependence to destroy the organism and easily can cause a death. But, when the world "smoking" is mentioned, we think that is a little evil and causes little hurt at a person. I think that cigarettes are hurtful like a drug, but quietly, abjectly and long killer. World's statistics talk to us about millions of victims in a year in the world and the reason is smoking. Scientists talk that one of biggest reasons about the most abject sickness in the last and this century, the cancer, is smoking. Nicotine and other dangerous ingredients whose we receive from the fume, first attacks the lungs and then the other organs in human's organism. Maybe aren't very fast and effective like a drug, but slowly, abjectly and sure killers. These things slowly, but sure destroy the human's health, ever causing death. Heroin consumption and other kinds of drugs in the world are prohibited. But I think that smoking isn't a little bit dangerous and it must be prohibited. Very better it could be never producing cigarettes, but I know this produce is a big business in the world the economies would have problems with crisis and a big percentage of unemployed people, who producing and processing tobacco. Using tobacco can reallocate many other needs in the industry. The person, if wants it could do that. Because of that is nothing stronger than the man's will and nothing is valuable than the people's life whose is one and unique.

Should society assume more responsibility for pregnant teenagers and children they bear? The education of teenagers is very important thing for their lives. Because of that, the teenage's years are laziest years, the society must assume more responsibility to help them. Also, is important the sexual education and prevention, because are many pregnant teenagers who don't know the situation in future. A big part of them didn't finish high school. The not enough educated teenagers are without a diploma and they aren't responsible to hold their babies who ask for more. Teenagers are very young, are children and so that's the problem they cannot bring the babies. Because of that many teenagers decide to abort, to stop the pragnance, but that's a rysk and it could be fatal for their health. In every case the society must help the young teenagers who are pregnant and who have babies, must finish the high school, to check a diploma about employing. An important role, here plays a family, or the parents who should help their children or these young people to get over easy this period. Well, the best alternative is to working with prevention and the young teenagers must be sexually educate and inform, to not coming in situations young teenagers to bring up alone the little babies. I think that the society has a big responsibility to take care and to working with prevention about this young population.

Should the animals be used for scientific research? Is it humanly? Many scientific researches in the world are made on the animals in medicine pharmacy and chimicall industry. The scientific laboratories are full with cages where live millions of animals from a rat to monkey. These animals are experimented with many kinds of used medicines, cosmethic things etc. World's statistics don't gave a precise number of dead animals, but for example we know that in USA die about 100 millions of animals about his reason. For these problems and big numbers of died animals, the states and governements aren't interested, but the organizations protect the animals and defend the animal's rights. Because of that the live is one, unique and precious and it's for everybody, we the people don't have rights to kill the animals. To keep the animals about days, months and years without a chance to live in their natural home. And then to remove from cages, to make experiments and always to kill the animals. Altough that is made about science's progress and humanity, I think that it isn't a moral to kill the animals unhumanly. I don't understand, why we, the people say that we have a great level of development of our brain but we kill the animals to have a good life. I think that we should pantry the animals to live in the nature and we, the people must find new kinds how to make experiments in scientific laboratories.

@The 1920's was a leisurely period in history and people began spending more time playing and observing sports. Who were the major contributors to this "Golden age" of sports and what influence, if any, did they have on future athletes and the sports they played?

Education is an indivisible part of the prosperity of the nation. The more educated and cultured people there are in the country the more flourishing and thrifty the country is. Comment on this issue, argument your decision

The mass media, including TV, radio, newspapers have a great influence on people and especially on the younger generation. It plays an important role in shaping the opinions and positions of the younger generation. Argue for or against this statement.

Hobbies and sports are the best attributes of one person. But just exist the most important attribute is the work.** **The people need hobbies, sports............. My favorite hobbies are chatting, reading books, watching movies on DVD player and TV, listening to pop and rock music, explore............ Many people and teenagers have many hobbies.** **The hobbies make the people creative in their life and that's the reason. I realise my hobbies when I am free and I have opportunities to spent a lot of free time.**
 * 3. Think of something you really like doing (a hobby, sport, ...)
 * Sport** **is an activity that is governed by a set of rules or customs and often engaged in competitively.** **//Sports// commonly refer to activities where the physical capabalities. My favorite sports are football, swimming and running but I am not proffesional. I practice these sports about two reasons because I am friendly to joking with my friends and like a interest to development of the body. Sport is commonly defined as an organised, competitive and skillful physical activity requiring commitment and fair play.**


 * 4. What do you think the most serious problem in the world is? Why?

Today in the world exist many problems and many people and a big number of children ** **are without love and very poor. The 21st century is a century of informatic technology. But from another part today the people have many opportunities to realise their interests. The 21st century is century of high progress in the science, techonology etc. The technoology is used in the industry, education, laboratories, in the medicine, army etc.With the development of the human intelligence the science and technology developed. In the economy whose is the biggest problem in the world are many exchanges, where is a big number of people who don't work, in high-developed countries in Europe, USA, Russia etc.** However, all the problems can be limmitted by enormous efforts of people all over the world. In conclusion, climate changes are now so serious and have direct influences on our planet. Nevertheless, by putting energy efficiency, renewable energy and paying more attention to the environment, people all over the world will altogether reduce the contribution to global warming while creating a stronger, healthier and more secure world. **
 * Climate changes is a serious problem facing our world today.Over the last few years, climate changes have been hotly debated and become an accepted threat to our planet. **

**What are your reasons for returning to school this year?

After the finishing of every school year, also start the summer holidays. About holidays we are also relaxing without the school and studying. With one word, we pass the hot summer's days, we're going to the beach also to the sea or lake, making friendships, walking, relaxing next to when the summer finishes. But, after finishing the summer's holidays ever exist a reason to return in the school. Me, like a student I am conscious about the neccesarity and importance about the secondary education. The education and the knowledge open the walls in the life. They permit to us to step in the future with big steps. The knowledge is a force and power to resolve all the problems in our life and to work succesfully and to live a happy life. With the Secondary school's diploma we have a right to registration in all the universities in our country and abroad. In the University we are achieve with high level of education and to be intelectuals. We get new skills and knowledges of many things. We become people with high level of education when we study, to be capable for our future's proffesion. With university's diploma we will be high-educated people. This certificate could help us to working with a good job and to working the job what we prefer. Ever we need to return in school, to read and learn, because it's about a good future. We must be educate because the knowledge is our weapon, because the knowledge give to us the biggest force and power in our life.**


 * 6. If you were given one million dollars to spend how would you spend it? You cannot use it for yourself, family members, or friends.**

If I have one million dollars I will invest the money to help my country. When I would have million of dollars, I will be open a little factory in my town to decline the percentage of unemployment. For example in the vicinity of my town the farmers produce big quantities and every year they have problems with the negotiations because here isn't a organized purchase. With my money I will open a factory to produce the conservated tomato, ketchup and other tipes of products. The technology I will be buy from Italy because is a developed country about tomato products. The emaballages, bottles, metal packets and tetrapack I could buy in my country because here exist factories who product these products. With the opening of this factory I would resolve the big problem of the farmers about the negotiation of tomato. But, part of unemployers in my town can find this job and I think that it could be resolve the problem of unemployment. The rest of these money I will send like a gift about the children who are very sick to cure in abroad and to help the children without parents because it's a human gest.**
 * The economy in our country is low developed and here are a big number of unemployed people. One of the reasons is the period of transition where is our country. In the last two years in the world the world's economic crise has attacked the world. This crise has felt our country and has made the economic development very slow. Then, our country suffers pressures to change our name and national identity.

**2. Most people feel that they have "learned some lessons" in their life. They may have made some mistakes that taught them something** I will talk about an mistake in my life where I think that I made a mistake. One day after the school lessons finished, me instead to return at home like ever, I've been in the Free internet club. But I forgot to phone to my mother. My mother searched me on the mobile phone, but in the internet club was a big confusion Iwasn't listen the phone. I was ecstatic on internet in chatting with friends and searching and I wasn't see what was the time. When I returned at home I saw my mother sad and frightened. She searched me on the phone to all my friends and family then in the end she was frightened because my mobile phone ringed but I didn't phone there. When I saw my mother on the instant I've understood about my mistake, but I didn't make that intentional. I didn't was conscious that the time what I spent there finished very fast and I forgot that my mother will be worry about me. I embraced my mother and I excused and hundred times I promessed that I never be repeat the same mistake and to phone her where I am. I've understtod that the parents ever are worry about their children, and it doesn't matter that they are adults. This was a good lesson for me that where I am, I must phone at home also when I late or I couldn't phone on time. My mother has forgived me about this mistake but I can't forget her eyes with tears and her frightened face.**
 * A lot of people in their life make mistakes and feel guilty about this. But, they learn of their mistakes. This is one proverb and it does it mean: "The person who learns of his mistakes is clever and who learns the mistakes of others is happy." But, is enough to understand about the mistake and to check a moral for this, to learn the lesson of the mistake. Because in this world nobody isn't perfect and doesn't exist person who doesn't make mistakes.

Everybody have important people who love us and who help us in the hardest moments. Without them, our world will be very hardly. My life is full with many important people for me. They are my family and my friends. But for me is most important my family, my sister, my mother and my father. But If I must choose one person although helped me my parents I will choose my mother. She's with me and around me, from when I remember about me. From the first kids's days she was ever near me to help me in every moment. I was little and when I falled down she was near me and consoled me: "Don't cry!". Ever ride me when I am sick to give me hot tea and milk, to give me the medicaments and to hug me when I feel a pain. When I chided with my friends, she was here to tell me about that I am right or guilty and If I must to be first to put the hands for peace with my friends. When I had a lot for studying and tests and I was late in the night, she was always here to help me and she never cutted out me. Always she has been ride me to prepare my bags for every school trips and travelling and she put the hands up to salute me about a long time when I will travel and smile to greet me about my return.**
 * 5. Choose an important person that you have looked up to and who has helped you in your life.
 * Now, when I am an adult she is again here to wake up me to going at school not to late there, to greet me smile when I will return at home and to help me to resolve every my problem and to give me her love when I need that.**
 * I love my mother and of course is the most important person in my life.**

In the people's life exist many different periods. Good, a little bid good and bad. We like to remember the best periods when we were happy. I want to remember my childhood, because for me is the best period in my life. My childhood has started in Italy, where I was born and in myself I have a lot of good things. I remember when I was little child, with the love of my parents. I lived in my kingdom full with many toys, what I loved. Sometimes came my uncles and aunts and they sent to me many gifts and I played with my cousins. I remember all the holidays and all my birthdays when I was little. About Easter my parents bought for me a big chocolate's egg and always a beautiful toy. In Italy about Easter the children also buy big chocolate's eggs whose sometimes are football balls. Then the members of my family and friends sent to me many chocolate's eggs and the number was very big and I didn't to eat all. For Christmas always my paretns sent to me the gifts. On the morning when I woke up I runned to see what I'm waiting. Then I waited Santa Claus. He came always send to me interesting gifts and always asked me that I am good child. He had a strange voice and when I was 6-7 years old I unveiled that he was my father. For my birthdays my mother made very beautiful cakes and I celebrated my birthday with my friends and cousins. In Italy I started at school when I was 6 years old. There for all the beautiful holidays we made many theater's concerts and our parents came to see us. There I met many friends and with some of them I chat on facebook. I remember when I went in Macedonia, my friends prayed me to stay with them but I loved to study in my country with my mother language. Now, I am not a child and always with satisfaction I remember my childhood when I was a smile child and I lived in my child's kingdom.**

 * A MILLIONAIRE**

**A millionaire (originally and sometimes still millionaire) is an individual whose net worth or wealth exceeds one million units of currency. It can also be a person who owns one million units of currency in a bank account. Depending on the currency, a certain level of prestige is associated with being a millionaire, which makes that amount of wealth a goal for some, and almost unattainable for others. The word was first used (as millionaire, double "n") in French in 1719 by John Law. If I am a millionaire my first pass is to help the people, because it is a human guest for people who don't have nothing. Then, I can use these money to open a business to work honestly, to travel around the world, to visit the most beautiful places. But, to be a millionaire exist a rules. The word millionaire I can translate that it is a person who have million and millions of money who can take from millionaire quizzes, to have many and many properties and buy new locals, very expensive cars etc. i think that he character of the millionaire must to be good because he has all in his hands and he must to be honest, human, to give a work to the people, to help the poor etc.**


 * MY FAVORITE ROOM**


 * My favorite room is my living room where I spend the time for anything, there I make my homework and study.

This is a very beautiful room and I'm proud and when one person will go there he will say "Wow, that's wonderful. I don't have words" and I think that everyone is with a good impression. That's a place where I live my life, joking, having conversations with my friends, telling the humor stories, make parties etc. This room is my favorite because also I spend a time to sleep and relax when I am broken and tired. In my room I have very nice TV, computer, two beds, a little library with books of different languages and in my room I do my hobby to reading the books. To describe my room I have many words. My room is small, but very interesting and impressionable. Writing for my favorite room is nice for me. But, I don't have photos of my favorite room.**


 * MY FAVORITE FOOD**

Many cultures study the dietary analysis of food habits. While humans are omnivores religion and social constructs such as morality often affect which foods they will consume. Well, my favorite food is a Italian Pizza and I eat sometimes, when I am with my friends and my family. Often I eat Pizza Margherita and the ingredients are mozzarella and tomato sos. in Italy exist many kinds of pizza, like what are Diavola, Margherita, Marinara, Napoletana etc. My mother makes a pizza when is Christmas and other parties and holidays. But, often the people eat the unhealthy food and can cause sicks. The people must eat a healthy food because the vitamins of healthy food can destroy the people's sickness. I always eat a healthy food, because it can help to resolve the problems with the organism. Today, in the world exist many restaurants who are most popular for example Italian, American, Chinese etc. These restaurants represent their traditional food. In every country exist traditional food what can make promotions of the countries.
 * Food** is any substance, usually composed of carbohydrates, fars and proteins, that can be eaten and drunk by an animal or human for nutrision or pleasure. Items considered food may be sourced from plants, animals or other categories such as fungus or fermented products like alcohol.

CHILDHOOD THE BEST TIME OF MY LIFE

Many people say that childhood is the best time of people's life. However being a child has both advantages and disadvantages. The children are the best thing in the world and they are very clever creatures. Now, I am 17 years old. On the plus side, we like the children we have very few responsibilities. For example, we don't have to go to work, pay bills or do the shopping, cooking or cleaning. We pass the best moments in our life, playing sports, go out with friends, watching TV, playing computer games etc. But, however for every positive thing there is a negative. For one thing, we also have to spend all day, for example at school from Monday to Friday, than going out for weekends every Saturdays and Sundays. The reality is that studying usually I have and I do the homeworks and tests. one disadvantage is that we don't study much in my opinion. Today, many children still to buy things with expensive prices and parents are not always generous with pocket money. All things considered in fact.

CORRECTING MISTAKES

Dear Stephanie 05, Wallstreet, New York, USA 29.05.2009

How are you? I'm very well.I came in Dublin two weeks ago to study at a language school. I want to learn English because is a very important language. I Live with Irish family. They've got two sons and a daughter. Mr. Kendall is a teacher and Mrs. Kendall works in a hospital. The Irish are very kind, but they speak very quickly! I study in the morning. My teacher's name is Ann. She told to me that my English is OK, but I make a lot of mistakes. Ann doesn't give us too much homework, so in the afternoons I'm always sightseeing. Dublin is much bigger than my town. I like much painting and I'm very interested for modern art, so I visit galleries and museums. I've met a girl named Martina. She comes from Spain and she goes to study in Trinity College. Last night we went to the cinema, but the film wasn't very exciting. Would you like to visit me? Why don't you come for a weekend? I'd love to see you. Write to me soon. Love, Vladimir

THE EMPEROR AND HIS DAUGHTERS

There was an emperor who lived in a palace. He had three daughters but no sons. He wanted his daughter to marry before he died. He found three princes. However his daughters didn't like them. They refused to marry the princes, so the emperor became very angry. He said they must get married while they were sixteen ears old. The three daughters ran away during the night and found work on a farm. They fell in love with the farmer's sons as soon as they were working there. They married the sons where they were sixteen.

THE FARMER AND HIS SONS

There was once a old, dying farmer who has three sons. Before he died he wanted to teach his three sons how to be good farmers. So he called them to his bedside and said, 'My boys, I have an important secret to tell you: there is a great treasure buried in the vineyard. promise me that you will look for it when I am dead.' The sons gave their promise and to working very hard, they began looking for the treasure. They worked very hard in the hot sun every day. They pictured boxes of gold coins, diamond necklaces, and other such things.
