I -The problem of over - population

It has become clear that over population in Egypt is a serious problem. It results in
other more serious problems. Our youth can't find a flat to marry in or a suitable job to start their life. There is also a possible shortageof food. Our cities became very crowded, they lack the needed infrastructure for living.
So it has become a must that we should invade the desert . The government does its best to encourage people to have small families through public awareness programmes on TV. and papers. It send campaigns to remote and small villages to offer people information about birth control




2- Charity Societies

Charity Societies are organizations for helping the poor everywhere. Rich people establish them. They do their best tomake homeless and poor children live in a reasonable standard.They offer them care in different aspects. They offer the poor medical care free of change . If they are homeless, they offer them houses and food.
Businessmen have got a duty towards these societies. They should give them support. They can pay a part of their taxesfor these societies. All of us should take part in the activities of these societies. We can donate clothes, money, food or even we can donate efforts to please these poor children.



3- Computers

The computer has a lot of advantages It can store a lot of information; it can do a lot of
calculations in no time. it can pay wages, reserve seats on planes, design buildings, compose music and do many jobs. Doctors also use the computer widely in their job.
But it has also some disadvantages ,it can waste our time if it is used foolishly or if it is used just for fun. it has also a bad effect on our health specially the sight . it also teaches the children violence through playing the computer games. So it is a double-edged weapon.




4-Sources of Clean power in Egypt


Egypt is blessed with a lot of gifts - It is rich in sunshine, water and man power. The sunshine can be a source of energy. It is useful for the growth of animals and plants as well. It can help in producing solar power. Thus, Egypt can be a developed country using a clean source of energy. Water is also plentiful in Egypt. It can be used in planting vast areas of desert land so that we can increase our food production.
However, if we don't employ man power in a proper way,we may spoil our natural resources. Man is the master of all these resources. Plans should be made to benefit fromman power to be able to face any problem in our country.

5- Technology in our life

Technology is everywhere nowadays. We all enjoy technology but in different ways. Now, we can travel from one place to another very easily, comfortably and fast. Modern means of transport are now supplied with all means of comfort . Space travel is now more possible than it used to be in the past. One day people may be able to enjoy space journeys.
Technology has also played a role in medical care . Now the computer can be used to check people's health accurately. It is also used for teaching. Students can benefit from the internet in their researches as well. No doubt technology has changed our life to the better.



6- Schools in the Future

I think our school will be completely different in the future. The ministry of education cares about creating a good citizen and a healthy young man as well. More attention will be given to sports. The computer will be used more widely. Every student will benefit from the internet in all aspect of his life. Moreover the students will be encouraged to take part in doing scientific research. This will encourage students to visit libraries more often.
Distance learning will be also the feature of the future. Students can study everything while they are far away from the school. They can take tapes or CD's to enable them to study their subjects at home. We can imagine a more different shape of school than what we see nowadays.


7- Sports

"The sound mind is in the sound body". This is a true saying, if someone practises sports he will be fit. That's why the ministry of education gives due attention to sports in our schools. Students who get prizes or medals in any sports championship are encouraged a lot. Schools also set up sports competitions and offer prizes for the winners.
The government encourages sports. It sets up youth centres and clubs everywhere to enable everyone old or young to practise sports. Sports festivals are a call for peace and love among nations . So every country gives due care for taking part in the international championships.




8 -The television

The television is the cheapest means of entertainment and culture . It shows us the current events that take place in every part of the world at the same time. It is also a means of communication. We can learn the language of any nation through its films or serials - We can't forget the educational programmes which attract the students of different stages.
On the other hand it has some disadvantages. It has negatively affected the habit of reading. Most of us don't read much as we are attracted to the television more. Some people waste their time in front of the TV. So we have to use this important invention wisely.

9- Tourism

Tourism is considered one of the most important earners of foreign currency and national income, .Tourists spend a lot of hard currency during their stay in Egypt.
Tourists like to visit Egypt to enjoy the sun shine, and the wonderful historic places. They like to visit the Citadel, the Pyramids, Luxor and Aswan. They like to see our modern renaissance as well. We should do our best to encourage tourists to visit us again and again. We should establish cheap hotels and tourist villages along our shores.




10- The role of the youth in development

The youth should first work hard to achieve success. When they graduate from their universities they have duties towards their society . They can share in the social work by working in the co-operative field. They can share in abolishing illiteracy in their villages.
They can take part in reclaiming the desert to increase food production. They can join the army to defend their country in case there is a war. They can also help a lot in solving any problem concerning their society. They should work hard for the welfare رفاهيةof their beloved country Egypt.




11- Making the best use of spare time"

Time is gold. The time wasted is too hard to regain . So we have to make the best use of our time. If we have a spare time we can make a plan to spend it doing useful things. The wise person is one who spends his / her time carefully in a proper way. Some people prefer to read a useful book, or a story. In this way they increase their information and knowledge in different aspects.
Some others prefer to practise sports. So they renew their energy, activate their minds, and strengthen their bodies. . Young men prefer to spend most of their time playing computer games, which can be useful in developing their abilities and computer skills.




12- Life in the past & today


In my view, life in the past was quieter and easier. Modern-means of transport tike cars, trains and planes were not there. Consequently, there were almost no air-pollutants. Vast areas of land were cultivated. People depended mainly on agriculture as their main earner.
In the past there was shortage of medical care. Cholera and other serious epidemics were attacking many people for a time. At present, nearly all epidemics vanished thanks to medical care.
Nowadays, we hear every now and then of new discoveries such as the Femto second, and new inventions such as the computerized car. Also there are various means of entertainment. In short, life today has become more complicated.


13-The Role of universities in Society

The university is not founded only for teaching and learning. It has other purposes. One of which is providing the society with its needs. University graduates are useful members in the society. They help in raising the standard of living. Universities take part in carrying out the development plans by doing scientific research in different aspects They can take part in reclaiming the desert to change it into green lands and increase the food production. They can share in making industrial progress by graduating technicians, and engineers for factories. They can do research to help to reduce air pollution.



14- Improving our villages

Our villages can be improved by different ways. Fresh water for drinking and electricity must be supplied. Clean and healthy houses must be built; they must include separate places animals. Enough schools must be set up for all children to spread education . Paved roads .and easy means of communications should be set up to enable people to travel from place to place easily. Shops and supermarkets must be found too, in order to provide the people with their needs. In this way we can make our villages a better place to live in.




15 - The importance of Computers


Thanks to human inventiveness computers now cover all aspects of our life,
Computers help man to extend the power of his mind. Without them, a lot of our technological
miracles would be impossible. Computers are used in hospitals to check patients' records and diagnose some diseases. Schools cannot do without them. They are used in factories and banks to improve and facilitatework. TV, radio, hotels, telecommunications, trains, ships, planes etc... depend on computers in their work. Computers are our servant and not our masters yet. Really, the world of computer is endless



16" Egypt's achievements

Thanks to the wise policy of the recent government Egypt has achieved daring achievements in various fields to make our life smooth and enjoyable and enable us to face the challenges of
globalization. In the field of education, thousands of new schools are being built equipped with computers and internet labs all over Egypt to cope with the world changes. In thefield of agriculture and land reclamation, great projects are being established like Toshka Project in Upper Egypt to increase the area of cultivated land. In the field of industry, investors are encouraged to set up factories and buy the old ones through the privatization programmestomodernize and increase production
In the field of transport and telecommunications, new roads and bridges are being built to facilitate traffic and the new centrals are now available to deal with the rapid increase in population. In the field of public health, the health insurance umbrella is covering all classes of people,

17- Life in the Future


As long as we live, we have to think. Our life in the future will change completely. Computers and internet will occupy our life. So, instead of wasting time going here and there, we will use the internet to get our needs. Students of the future will get the information they need through their computers which will be available and within the reach of their hands –Housewives can shop through the internet and the housework will be done by certain kind of robots. Most houses will be air conditioned and people won't suffer from the heat of the sun. Our factories will be computerized. There will be better means of communications and transport. Scientists will control the weather, so there will be no floods or drought . But I think man will not change.


18"- Preventing pollution


It isn't acceptable to be in the third millennium and we still pollute our ecology. Individuals, companies and factories should find ways to control their waste. Clean streets and roads are the bad need of every citizen so we shouldn't throw things away in the streets and there must be laws to punish those who break them.
Filters should be fixed in factories to help reduce air pollution. It's our environment and everybody should do their best to leave a happy life. Keeping the place clean would surely avoid us thousands of infectious diseases that may ruin our life and turn our happiness into mirageسراب.



19"-Unemployment


Unemployment must be rooted out because it leads to further poverty. The government is always encouraging investors to invest their money in establishing new projects and shoulder their responsibilities to provide business opportunities for youth. Giant projects such as Toshka project in the south of the valley, Six October industrial city, reclaiming Sniai, and others with small projects will give a hand to increase different kinds of jobs for those who need them.
Banks are also important, they can lend young people small loans with slight interest to help them set up small industries all over Egypt. When we solve this pressing problem, we will eradicate extremity and terrorism among those poor young people.




20"- Zewail and the Femto Second


The secret of a good invention or discovery is simplicity .The Egyptian scientist Dr Ahmed Zewail, the Nobel Prize laureate for Chemistry in 1999, managed to discover the smallest unit of time; in other words, "the femto second". This great work will help scientists to see the chemical reactions and discover new and better drugs for curing many fatal diseases such as cancer.
On behalf of the Egyptian people, President Mubarak awarded Zewail the Necklace of The Nile in recognition of his amazing achievement that raised Egypt's name high in the sky. Hail to Egypt.

21- English and its importance (Learning Foreign Languages)


English is an integral part of your personality, your character and yourself. You can no more get rid of it than your shadow. Knowledge of good English enables you to communicate with foreign friends and countries. It enables you to find a better job because it helps you express yourself and deal with tourists freely.
We cannot cope with the technological renaissance without learning how to use the computer and internet so learning English is a must. When you are armed withـ English, you can understand what is going on around you and you can deal with the knowledge explosion easily without any fear.



22 ' Electricity and its importance


Thanks to modem inventions and discoveries our life became easy and smooth. What is electricity? It's the mysterious power which is produced by various means e.g. by batteries or generators which provide us with heat, light and sound. It drives machines and different kinds of devices.
The progress, man achieves, depends basically on it. Electricity helps man increase production because it drives our factories. It gives us peace because it illuminates our streets, houses, and schools.
We can generate electricity from waterfalls, wind and the atomic power as well as the sun. It's a clean and cheap source of energy. Awareness should be spread to cut down its consumption we have to be thankful to God who gives us the blessing of thinking which led man to the use of electricity because its advantages are endless.




23 - Women's role in our society


We all have rights and duties, so we mustn't forget the work of women in the Egyptian society because they form 50% of Egypt's population. They can work as teachers, doctors, social workers and many others. Women mustn't forget that bringing up children is their first aim to create sound individuals, able to shoulder their responsibilities .so we can't ignore her role in the progress of Egypt. Without all people's help women and men, we wouldn't achieve the expectations of the new millennium,




24- Money is a good servant but a bad master


No one can deny that money is a mixed blessing. in other words, it is a good servant but a bad master. On the one hand, money helps us to get all our needs but we should not earn it in a dishonest way. With the help of money problems can be solved. Money makes money and with money people can lead a comfortable life.
On the other hand money is the root of all evils. For the sake of getting money some people deceive, kill and commit crimes. Wars are waged and thousands of people are killed because of money.


25- The duties of young people towards their parents.

It is taken for granted hat we owe much to our parents who looked after us
when we were young. They did their best to provide us with food, clothing, shelter and education. They sat up beside our beds when we were ill. They spared no pains to give us the best start in life. So it is our duty to love and respect them.
We have to take their advice and obey their orders .since they have experienced life with its ups and downs. It is also our duty to help them in every possible way. We can do the shopping and help them at home. When they grow old, it is our turn to repay their kindness. We should look after them and provide them with every possible comfort. It is truly said that a good turn deserves another.




26" Prevention is better than cure


A friend of mine lived in the country. He used to swim and wash himself in the small canal near our village. Many times, I saw him and advised him not to do so to protect himself from Bilharzias but he wasn't listening. He repeated what he was doing for many years until he was ill. A doctor examined him and found that Bilharzias had attacked his liver and other organs of his body. He became ill with worry, weak and pale. He took the required medicine, which cost him a lot of money. I met him later and when he saw me, smiled and said, you were right, prevention is better that cure.



27-Public Libraries


Reading For All

Never can the importance of reading be denied especially in the age of information technology.
The first lady of Egypt realized that fact long before, that's why she launched the call, Reading for All, many years ago. In order to achieve this goal, she called for a library for each house. The government built a lot of public libraries in both rich and poor areas giving a particular attention to children and their needs.
The second stage was the moving libraries to serve the children in remote and poor districts.especially in the summer holiday and weekends. Thanks to Mrs. Suzan Mubarak, free reading is now available for every man, every woman, and every child all over Egypt




28-Made in Egypt


Protecting local products

One should be proud of his country and its local products..Our local products are usually cheaper than the imported ones and sometimes better. In addition, buying our local products creates job opportunities for our youth and brings hard currency اwhich need to import our need.
There is no doubt that our products have the Egyptian tastewhich appeals to us and
Cope with our nature and way of living . Not only this but also
they best cope with our hot and humid weather, with our habits of eating and doing the daily work. Finally, buying our local products increases our national income and raise our standard of living.




29" Pros and cons of Advertisementsمزايا وعيوب الإعلانات


Every time you watch an interesting movie or a video film, ads pop out on the screen to cut the flow of events and get you out of your mood.
Ads are also likely to strengthen the time of the movie that you get too bored to watch the end. Sometimes they are vulgar to be watched by the whole family.
On the other hand, ads bring a lot of money which encourages TV companies to buy new films and pay money to broadcast football matches. This in turn motivates يحفز production companies to produce more films and programmes of all kinds to sell to private and space channels which buy them to attract more viewers.
As for us, ads help us to choose the goods we need easily without spending much time and efforts looking at shop windows here and there.





30'- Political Reform in Egypt


Democracy in Egypt


No doubt that president Mubarak is the pioneer of the recent political renaissance in Egypt.
He started the political reform since the very
beginning of his ruling era. He gave orders to release the political prisoners shortly after he had receivedthe power. Then, he called all the Egyptians to take part in the political life freely through any political party. In his era the freedom of press law was issued. He called all journalists to publish facts and truth with respect to the rights of others.
Finally he called the people's assembly to issue a new law enabling others to nominate themselves to
hold the post not after him but from him if they were elected by the Egyptian people. Now we all feel the changes that will end with free practice to democracy in Egypt.



31'- Bird Flu


Epidemics spread like fire, in a few months the Bird Flue swept all the boundaries of the old world, From China in the east to the Atlantic Ocean in the west. The disease caused a lot of horror not only to poultry merchants and breeders but also the mere, poor customers who depend mainly on chickens as their source of Protein.
In Egypt the industry of poultry production has nearly come to an end. Farms have been closed. Poultry shops had to change their activity after the great loss they suffered. The government estimated the lossق to be nearly six milliard LE. The government tried to compensate those who have been much affected by this catastrophe to save the Egyptian economy from certain disaster.
Finally, we also have a duty to limit the effectsof this disease through keeping hygiene and public sanitary, checking up home poultry regularly, getting rid of the affected birds in a scientific wayand heading to the doctor's in case of tiny doubt.


Swine flu

The 2009 outbreak of influenza (H1N1) virus or "swine flu" is an epidemic of a new type of influenza virus identified in April 2009. It's caused by a new swine flu virus that has changed in ways that allow it to spread from person to person and it's happening among people who haven't had any contact with pigs. Cases were first discovered in the U.S. . Within days hundreds of suspected cases, some of them fatal, were discovered in Mexico. More cases were found in the U.S. and several other countries in the Northern Hemisphere. The U.N.'s World Health Organization (WHO) expressed concern that the (H1N1) could become a worldwide flu pandemic. Symptoms of swine flu are like regular flu symptoms and include fever, cough, sore throat, runny nose, body aches, headache, chills, and fatigue





-'English and The Internet

The importance of the Internet grows rapidly in all fields of human life, including not only research and education but also marketing and trade as well as entertainment and hobbies. This implies that it becomes more and more important to know how to use Internet services and, as a part of this, to read and write English.
But although Internet services themselves are, generally speaking, easy to learn and use, you will find yourself isolated on the Internet if you are not familiar with English. This means that knowledge or lack of knowledge of English is one of the most severe factors that cause interest . Learning to use a new Internet service or user interface may take a few hours, a few days, or even weeks, but it takes years to learn a language so that you can use it in a fluent and self-confident manner. Of course, when you know some English, you can learn more just by using it on the Internet. So, English and the internet became one face of a coin.

Egypt planning nuclear energy project

The 21st Century will be the century of nuclear energy, for widely known reasons: the rising costs of petroleum and gas, and the fact that they are limited, and the proven safety and efficiency of nuclear technology. Egypt currently relies largely on oil and gas for electricity generation, sources that are both expensive and insufficient for the needs of a fast-growing population. With the recent rise in oil and gas prices the government is losing billions of dollars annually in fuel subsidies. Consequently, We must take more advantage of new and renewable energy sources, including the peaceful uses of nuclear energy for civilian purposes.
For this, it has become the responsibility of Egypt toward its future generations to start, now and not tomorrow, reviewing its decision to suspend its nuclear programs. So President Mubarak took a landmark decision in Egypt's history. He called for Egypt to revive plans for a nuclear programs that were shelved in theaftermath of the 1986 disastrous accident at the Soviet nuclear plant in Chernobyl. Egypt will begin building three nuclear power plants soon. Within 10 years of the project's launch, Egypt will have operational nuclear power plants with a combined capacity of 1,800 megawatts. Nuclear power could help Egypt better manage its power resources.
