The most important resource we have is water. Seventy percent of the Earth‟s surface is covered by
water but only three percent of it is fresh water. Without it we cannot survive and sadly, many people
in poor countries around the world do not have access to fresh drinking water. It is important that we
only use the water that we need and that we avoid doing anything to pollute water supplies. An easy
way to save water is to make sure that you do not leave the tap running when you are brushing your
teeth. Also, make sure that the tap is properly closed and not dripping when you are done. Another
easy way to reduce the amount of water you use is by choosing to take a shower instead of having
a bath.
B: Getting around
Many people have the bad habit of taking their cars wherever they go. Exhaust fumes from cars
cause a lot of pollution which severely damages the environment. Instead of always hopping into our
cars it is better if we ride a bicycle or walk if our destination is not too far. Also, if our destination is
further than we can walk or ride our bicycles to, public transportation like the metro, tram and bus
may also be a solution. Research has shown that besides helping the environment this way, we are
also helping our bodies. People who always use their cars to get around are generally in worse
shape than people who do not.
C: Eat Your Greens
Another way to help both the environment and your body is by eating less meat and dairy products
and more fruit, grains and vegetables. Growing plants causes less pollution than raising animals.
The animals that are raised for food use huge amounts land, water, grain and fuel. In the United
States, half all water resources and eighty percent of all farmland are used for producing meat.
According to studies, not eating meat helps the environment more than changing your car for
another one that uses less petrol.
D: Save Energy
There are many ways to save energy on a daily basis. When at home it is a good idea to make sure
that there aren‟t any lights on in rooms you are not using. Also, check to see if any household
appliances you are not using are not plugged in. It is a good idea to use renewable energy where
possible instead of petrol. Solar panels for example, use solar energy instead of petrol. Use
recyclable bags instead of plastic ones if possible. The production of plastic bags uses up lots of
natural resources and damages ecosystems when they are thrown away.

After the Second World War was over the first film festival in Cannes finally took place in1946. Since
then it has become the largest international showcase of cinema. Many filmmakers who are
unknown look forward to the festival to get a chance to show their work. Unlike the Oscars,
everyone has a chance to show their films at Cannes. Journalists and people involved in film from
all over the world come to Cannes in May to meet with each other. Of course, unless you are in the
media or involved in film it is very unlikely that you would be able to be a part of any of the events.
Cannes is known for showing all kinds of films, which is what makes it so attractive to so many
people who search for different things when they watch a movie. As in other film festivals, awards
are given to the best movies and the people who make them. There are two categories of awards:
Feature Films and Short films. A committee chooses the people that decide which films will be
awarded. These people are chosen from the film industry and for the past years they have almost all
been either directors or actors. There are a lot of awards given at Cannes, but the most important
one is the Palm d‟Or which is given to the best feature film and the best short film.
Perhaps more important than the awards, is the opportunity for new films, new artists and new
artistic approaches to be seen by important people in the film world. Whether or not a movie wins
the Palme d'Or or not, it has the opportunity of grabbing the attention of film critics and producers
who can really help the movie as its director and actors become known around the world.

their life in a negative way. Just like with alcohol, cigarettes and drugs, many psychologists say that
people are becoming addicted to the internet. In fact, research done by Dr. Kimberly S. Young
showed that internet addiction is very similar to other addictions like gambling at casinos and
alcoholism and that using the internet too much can affect someone‟s educational, social, economic
and professional life.
People who are addicted find that they need more and more time on the Internet in order to be
happy. When they cannot log on to the internet they often feel nervous, and cannot stop thinking
about what is on the internet and sometimes have dreams with the internet in them.
This often makes things difficult for them in their relationships with others, at their jobs, school or
with career opportunities. They use the internet as a way of escaping their problems rather than
dealing with them. If they feel sad, helpless, guilty or nervous they avoid facing these feelings by
logging on and visiting different sites, chat rooms or sending emails.
People should not be left with the wrong impression. Although too much use of the internet can
cause these problems, it is not our enemy .It is very important technology and has helped us in
more ways than one. It has brought people around the world closer to each other, has helped us
professionally and has provided us with access to unlimited amounts of information. The internet
has made our lives easier by assisting, informing and entertaining us, but it should not rule our lives.
As the ancient Greeks used to say, all things should be done in good measure.
