Corrida should be banned




We all know that play someone’s life was a very inhuman act, even to animals or plants. However until now, Some brutal sports such as corrida continuous appear all over the world.

To fighting with a cow and kill it at last, maybe some people think that was a great way to show matadors’ brave and strong, while, the audiences will feel very exciting from watch this bloody duel. I don’t know when they watched that,did they ever thinking about this question : will you be very happy if someone put you into a cage and let you fight with an animal or a human to kill them or be killed by them? Will you feel good if someone continually hurt you by a sword or a spear? Why should we do that to other lifes? Nevertheless, a kind and righteous person will not enjoy himself in a bloody fighting or watch that, no matter the fighters are human beings or any kinds of animals. The brutal sports like corrida are the desecration of life, they should be stop and disappear from the world.

If I have enough power, I will ban all kinds of brutal sports without any hesitation. Life should get highest deference, we should not put any lifes in danger and death just for entertainment.

I’m not a vegetarian. Sometimes we need to kill animals for food.Even though, we should learn to valued their life. Never play their life like a toy, because all of us are part of natrue.



smoking : should be banned in public places



Nowadays many people smokes in a public places such as (airport,restaurants,streets,etc) but actually they dont know the dangers of this habit.




Firtsly they damage their selves by doing it and what is more they damage other people life , whereas other people want a healthy life. Secondly they waste their monies on it . How ever we can put our money in a good works such as ( charities,or in positive way).
people who smoke makes their life shorter it`s a kind of suicide, on the other hand people who dont smoke they enjoy healthy long life.


A study prove that people who smoke they increase thier chance of having cancer and other disease more than the others who dont .

Thirdly, to have a clean fresh environment we should stop smoking in public . In my poinion the government should do smokings rooms where it`s allowed to smoke in it. How ever if some on smoke in public should pay a fine.


Also there are many reasons . But For these reasons many people would welcom a ban on smoking in public where they might irritate other.

Smoking Should Be Banned In Public Places


No one has doubt that the smoking is harmful to health, In addition, it is a waste of money, For this reason, some religions ban the smoking, such as Islam, inspite of all these thing too many people are still smoking.

Many people have mixed feelings about the smoking in public places, Although the decision of banning the smoking in public places will get mixed reactions, a lot of non-smoker people say it is a wisdom decision.

In general a lot of countries ban the smoking in public places, However, some people persist in breaking the law, especially in the developing countries where you can find the smokers smoke inside the trains, buses, building, they hurt themselves, Furthermore, they hurt other people.
While I was on the train in some country, there were tow people arguing loudly, and the reason was one of them was smoking and blow his smoke towards the other, the security officer came to fine the smoker? No, because there is no law for smoking on trains, he came to take the non-smoker to an other trailer, whta is more, the smoker person did not stop smoking, eventhough several peole complained about that.

On the other hand, the smokers in that country say ' we travel for a long time in non-stop travel, therefore we need a private place for smoking', For this reason, the government promised to set up new laws about smoking.

Non-smoker people complain about the unacceptable behaviour of the smokers, Nevertheless, they still suffer from inhaling nicotine them and their children.

Libya, which is a country in north Africa, is located on the Mediterranean sea , has a celebration which a lot of people consider to be the hugest in north Africa .
The celebration, is a happy occasion for Libyan people, who consider it as a way of saying thanks and expressing gratitude to the Libyan leader " Muammar Al-Gaddafi ", a lot of children and young people call him "Baba Muammar" which means a father while the rest of Libyan people call him brother Muammar. It takes a place on the first day of September.
A lot of countries, which have ties with Libya and Libya's allies attend this, and participate in their armies and equipments as well as Libyan preparations. ??

The highlights of the festival are, when the parade starts with the Libyan troops where the Libyan leader stands at the honour poduim with many important personalities, the participating countries in the procession, ordinary Libyan peole with their own show about Libya and its history.





The national day in Saudi Arabia




In Saudi Arabia, the national day celebration takes place in September every year.
King Abdulaziz established the Kingdom of Saudi Arabia on 22nd of september 1932 . In this celebration people celebrate by singing national songs and painting their faces with green and white which are the colours of our flag, and go on the streets , driving their cars after they painted them green and carry Saudi flags and the police every where giving stickers of king abdullah who is the king of Saudi.
(our country in our heart) and similar to these words. And this celebration no matter who you are you can celebrate which is one of the most amazing celebrations we have . Looking back , what I remember best was seeing people happy and dancing every where . On the whole it`s extremely impressive which is nice to share with other people. Al Jnadriya is a place in the east of Riyadh where you can see the traditional dance with swords and sing tradtional songs organized by the government and it`s a nice show to see .

eid alfite

A festival I can't forget is (EID ALFitr) which is a festival that means fast-breaking after the end of Ramadan (a period of fasting). It is a happy occasion when you are with your family and friends. Three years a go I was driving my car home after a very long joureny from the south to the middle of Saudi Arabia to be with my family for the first day of the Eid-ul-Fitr celebration . So I arrived on time. my mother was preparing food and drink and every body were busy doing something and you could smell all of kinds of perfumes. any way we went out to visit some cousins. Older people and friends congratulated us and children are often given gifts or money. After that I went out with my friends to celebrate. I met an old friend of mine who was very close to me who I hadn't seen for a long time. Usually we go to many places where we can see all the organised shows like the government palace, aljnadrih, albath and finally my favorite one it is a horse sutable?? where we had got a horse and spent vere lovely time .

Please make sure you use CAPITAL letters after a full stop, and 'I' is always a capital letter.















In Autumn, one of the biggest festivals of the year is called Hangawi, which is on August 15th in the lunar calender, and is the Korean thanksgiving day.


We have a three-day holiday and most people who make trips to their hometown get stuck in traffic jams in order to celebrate it with their family. A type of rice cake called songpyeon, whose shape is like a half-moon, is made by all families.


In the morning of Hangawi, families go to the their relatives gravesides to remember their ancestors and perform memorial rites, with foods prepared for the rites.


On that day, children who dress up in traditonal costumes enjoy playing traditonal Korean games such as kite-flying, playing yut.

Korea, the centre of Easter Asia
















Have you thought of coming here to Korea? It's a good idea to come to my country to study oriental history.

Korea is in the middle of East Asia and is a peninsular between China and Japan. So you can get a large amount of information about the ancient times of Eastern Asia and experience the culture and life style of Asian people.

What's more, it is very convenient to go other Asia countries to collect some information by plane or ship from Korea

In addition, Korea is famous for one of the world's most advanced IT countries. If you want to get materals from other Asian countries, you can use a wide rage of data bases and an electronic news paper from the past to now.

If I were you I'd choose Korea to do some research about our oriental history without hesitation.

JUST IMAGINE LIFE WITHOUT TECHNOLOGY

JUST IMAGINE LIFE WITHOUT TECHNOLOGY


Nowdays , many people could not live without technology , because they know the benefits of technology in their life. Also they are in an age when all people need to do every thing quickly.
In fact, there are many outstanding technology machines that are essential for everybody such as the internet, mobile phones, air counditioning, cars, etc.

One of the thing I always find amazing is how the internet has completely changed our lives . If we did not have it our lives would be boring also we would not be able to contact each other easly. Secondly I could not imagine life without my mobile phone because I feel safer with it especially at night and I can text message all my friends any time or any place cheaply. I really admire this invention. thirdly, I think air conditioning is important especially in all the hot countries.
For example; the weather in Saudi Arabia is boiling the temperature reaches 49 c so people could not love without it.

Finally , I think all people in the world need technology in their lives. They need technology in education or job or home or hospitals and all the companies in the world depend on technology.
My advice for everybody is use the technology in the right way in order to improve themselves .








OMAR AL-MOKHTAR 'THE LION OF THE DESERT'



Have you heard of this name , or have you seen an " Omar Almokhtar film? " If you have not, do not worry here is a summary of Omar Almokhtar's life .
He had many nick names like The lion of desert , The master of heroes .

Fact File

Omar Al-mokhtar was born on the 20th of August 1861 in Janzour, in the east of Tobruk city in Libya. His mother's name was Eisha Ibnat Moharib.
He died on 16th of September 1931 where the fascist Italians execute him .

Early life :
Omar Almokhtar was an orphan , his father died when he was on his way to Mecca , in the meantime Omar was 16 years old , Omar had learnt Quran and became an Arabic and Quran teacher .

From a Teacher to a Leader :
When the Italian troops invaded Libya , Omar Al-mokhtar decided to start consultations with all the Libyan tribes in the east of Libya. Meanwhile Salem Bin Abdunnabi had started to collect Libyan resisters in the west part of Libya .
The Italian policy in Libya was to kill all Libyan people, or make them servants to the Italian settlers, and the Libyans lived in slums during the Italian imperialism .
Omar Al-mokhtar started defending Libyan people's rights to live in peace in their country and the only chance was to start fighting against the troops that had invaded Libya.
He changed his career, and he became the leader of Libyan fighters, as he knew this was important.
He won each time and became skilled in the strategies and tactics of desert warfare , the Italian army did every thing to prevent supplies arriving to him , they planted landmines everywhere in Libya. Most Libyan people were either shepherds or farmers , a lot of them died because of the landmines .
Furthermore, Italian troops deprived people of food in order to make them surrender , whereas in fact Omar Al-mokhtar believed in his people , and his people believed in him .

Italian troops captures Omar Al-mokhtar
It was a great happiness to the Italian troops when they captured the hero (Mokhtar), and they immediately decided to judge him , it was clear they wanted to dispose of him as soon as possible. After one day Mokhtar was in the court .

The Trial :

They asked him a lot of questions, and he answered all the question with yes except for one question when the so-called judge asked him "were you responsible for killing the captives '', Mokhtar said "no , we do not kill the captives ", Mokhtar's defence lawyer said '' Mokhtar has not confessed to us as a legal government of his country , we therefore have to treat him as a war prisoner ", but their judge and jury did not accept that .
Mokhtar was hanged the next day.

Yeon-A Kim, one of famous figure skater

I really admire one young woman, her name is Yeon-a Kim, she is a one of the most famous figure skaters in the world now, because she is the first female skater to surpass the 200-point mark and also the first female skater to receive +2.00 grade of execution for jumps under the ISU Judging System. Also she is the only female skater whose triple-triple combination is recognized by the judges in both the short and free programmes.
But you know that her age is only 19 years , and if you heard her life history, you could see that she tried to practice skating so much in a terrible environment.
When she started figure skating, it was an unpopular sport in Korea, so she couldn't do a lot of skating . Also the goverment didn't support her, but at that moment her coach discovered her talent and he strongly suggested to her mother that she kept skating until now, I think that made her become a world-class figure skater.
It has affected that many Koreans, specially young people, who like her abillity and they want to follow her, she has become a kind of star.
She is currently ranked first in the world by the ISU, it is first time a Korean have got a title of world No.1, so I am really proud of her as a Korean as well. And now she is considered to be the favorite to win gold at the ladies figure skating competion at the 2010 Winter Olympics.

computer

I would like to talk about an amazing achievement that was invented by the humans. Computer technology has helped many people to contact each other over long distances.So I have strongly feel that nobody in the world can live without a computer. Nowadays the whole world is closely linked by commercial networks. Even though there are some problems it does cost alot, but companes, hospitals and all the public sectors can not be with out it. How many crimes were detected by computer . eventually diagnosed as apart from the family ??
The Internet

The Internet is a big world where you can find a lot of what you want. The internet makes life easier for people to communicate with other people who live far away or live next to you . Also you can buy or sell anything on it. The internet makes life a small place where you can have new friends from different countries . In the past if people wanted to communicate with other people they used to send letters and these days you can send a letter or anything just by clicking on send . Nowadays I think people can not live with out the internet as it is the most useful way to deal with anything. And there are many advantages like listening to music , studies, research,etc.... And on the other hand the internet has disadvantages like hacking, fraud,etc.... But we must use it in a good way. And the internet can also help you to find some information by searching for it. It is an amazing invention these days and you can go on the internet using mobiles phones or computers or playstations from anywhere anytime . Thats technolgy! Everything is amazing.

Henry David Thoreau living in nature ! ! !

When I was at universty one of my friends who was interested in philosophy gave me one book called 'walden' as a present for my birthday. Not expecting it would be good I started to read this book because that book was very heavy and had small letters which is hard to read. However, once I started it, I couldn't put it down.


Henry David Thoreau (1817-1862) was born in Concord, Massachusetts and studied at Harvard University. After that, he moved to Wadon Pond to live simply. There he built his house by himself, raised crops and experienced self-sufficiency for about 2 years. Based on these lives Walden was written in 1854 and influenced many figures such as John F Kennedy, Leo Tolstoy.



While I was reading it I thought about lots of things such as life and nature. What's more, I really wanted to read the original work of the book written in English. That is one of reasons I hoped to study English. It is a pity that I can't tell you how amazing the book is in English. I'd like to say "Just read Waldon translated into your language and you wil know why I like it."
