English people think that you should avoid physical contact with strangers. When they ride on underground trains, they
keep themselves to themselves. They read on trains or buses so that they don’t have to talk to people they don’t know.
They avoid eye-contact at all costs.
The English are much more conscious of their personal space than other nationalities, especially the Irish or the
Scots. The English allow much less contact, even with friends. And they can be upset if you touch them unexpectedly.
You should never tap an English person on the shoulder if you want to attract their attention. It’s safer to cough or say:
‘Excuse me?’.
When the English meet people for the first time, they shake hands, but then immediately move further away.
Other nationalities, Spanish people or Egyptians, for example, move closer to someone they are speaking to show
intimacy, but not the English.

thing? People have become busy. Technological advances mean that things are possible with one click away. A hundred

a new invention!
Research shows that around 28% of children in the UK are obese. People think that this is because they spend
too much time online and not enough time playing outside with friends

other destructive ones. In addition to polluting the earth in unprecedented ways, wars have become more and more
devastating due to technological inventions.
Furthermore, Ethical dimensions of recent technological developments, such as DNA
engineering, have become a focal point of questioning and discussion. Philosophical
debates have arisen over the use of technology, with disagreements over whether
technology improves the human condition or worsens it.
To make matters worse, a consensus definition of technology has become more difficult
to find due to recent evolution in science and its applications. It is especially confusing
to decide whether technology refers to the machines (or more precisely the hardware), the rules that govern or make
them work, the system that operates them or the different applications of science that are related to them. What is sure
is that technology has shaped societies and adapted itself to people's changing needs.
Write an email to your English friend, telling him about your favorite things about the Moroccan
culture.

Humour is any human communication which makes people laugh or feel happy. It is the ability or quality of people to
summon feelings of amusement in other people. Who does not enjoy a great laugh whenever possible? Laughter is a
great medicine and one of the most positive human emotions. Not only does it strengthen our immune system, but it
releases beneficial hormones that refresh us, calm our nerves, reduce tension and stimulate creativity.
Many researchers, including Drs. Lee Berk and Stanley Tan, have studied the benefits of laughter and humor.
They have published studies that show that laughing lowers blood pressure, reduces anxiety, relaxes muscles, and
strengthens the immune system. Apart from the significant medical benefits of laughter, all of us enjoy having a good
laugh. And we enjoy being around people who make us laugh. Laughter can release negative tensions both physically

To be a good citizen is not an easy task. It involves many characteristics and qualities that the citizen should
have. Firstly, good citizens always obey the law and authority. Also, they perform civic duties to help their communities.
A good citizen is also expected to love his or her country, and show patriotism. Another quality is respecting others and
their properties. Furthermore, good citizens are honest and trustworthy; that is, they won’t betray you. In addition to
that, a good citizen is tolerant, responsible, morally courageous, and self-disciplined. Finally, citizens who want to be a
model should be active and productive members in society; they should be involved in politics, in a way or another.
But more importantly, they should possess personal qualities such as kindness and generosity. In a nutshell, it is a great

Brain drain, which is the action of having highly skilled and educated people leaving their country to work abroad, has
become one of the developing countries concerns. Brain Drain is also referred to as human capital flight. More and
more 3rd world science and technology educated people are heading for more prosperous countries seeking higher wages
and better working conditions. This has of course serious consequences on the sending countries.
While many people believe that immigration is a personal choice that must be understood and respected, others
look at the phenomenon from a different perspective. What makes those educated people leave their countries should
be seriously considered and a distinction between push and pull factors must be made. The push factors include low
wages and lack of satisfactory working and living conditions. They also include social unrest, political conflicts and

Sustainable development is development that meets the needs of the present without compromising the ability of future
generations to meet their own needs. It is thus the ability to meet the needs of the present while contributing to the
future generations’ needs. It focuses on two goals: to improve the quality of life for all of the Earth's citizens, and to
stop using up the natural resources beyond the capacity of the environment to supply them indefinitely.
Green development is generally differentiated from sustainable development. Even if they both promote
development, green development prioritizes environmental sustainability over economic and cultural considerations.
Sustainable development requires action on the part of world states, governments and people. The detrimental situation
of the environment, the enormous stress upon our natural resources, and the huge gap between developed and
underdeveloped countries, necessitate practical strategies to reverse the trends.
Task 5: As a Moroccan student and citizen, what actions can you take in school to help the
sustainable development in Morocco?
