Media


Media



   Nowadays the media are developed more than the past. It’s become popular because people depend on it, for example for the world news; if someone wants to know more what happened in the world because there is some people want to increase their knowledge especially the educated people and students so I agree with the statement.



   There are many people who will disagree with the statement for many reasons. First, 40-45 years ago the media were very simple. There was no T.V and the radio was not popular. There were many people in their 40’s or 50’s that were not educated. They didn’t follow the media and didn’t care.



   In these days the education developed with the media so we can see the people affected by the media more and more day by day. In developed countries the media are important like in Hollywood they produce films and in Kuwait they produce T.V series. On the other side the newspapers are come popular because many people want to know about what is happening in his country or outside and on the radio, many people when they go to work listen to the radio in the car.



   Finally, I think the statement is true nowadays because we saw the extent of the effect on people and it would be false in the past because the media were simpler.

Education


Education



  Nowadays, there are many things which have been developed in the world like technology, business and medicine; all these elements want people to run them and they should be educated persons to work perfect. The education is the main thing we should develop before working; when we develop the education many positives will be produced.



  On the other side, if the education doesn’t develop in the country it will be down because they don’t have enough educated people to run the companies, ministries and the economy so they don’t have experience. This is one of the negative sides; also in big countries they have a huge number of people so they don’t have enough money to develop the education and they educate their students in simple subjects.



  On the positive side, when the country develops the education many people will have a good situation in the future. Another thing is if any country has enough money they can develop the education at a high level like in our country where they pay for us all education costs.



  Finally, the development of education will be negative and costly for huge countries, and the development of education will be positive for small countries.

Airline Survey


Airline Survey



  The pie charts illustrate the results of an airline survey in 2002 of economy class and business passengers; the numbers include the percentage of male or female passengers; now I will describe the pie chart.



  In the economy class the features which are popular are movies with 9 percent for female and 7 percent for males. Then food and drinks, females have 21 percent and males 19 percent; finally there are two similar features, space and service. In the business class, the movies are 9 percent for females which is similar to the economy class but for males it’s reduced to 3 percent; for food and drink the males have the high percentage with 24% and females with 20 percent; the services and space are similar too for both males and females.



   Finally, we saw the service percent is high in economy class, also the space, and the males don’t rate movies as high as females. In business class males rate food and drinks higher than economy class.

Challenges and strategies


Challenges and strategies



   Nowadays, there are many people who travel to new countries or cities for many things like searching for jobs or as tourists to change the routine. Now I will write down the challenges and strategies.



   When people move to new cities or new countries they will see a different culture; also the language will change and they adapt their own behavior. The second challenge is some people can’t be away from their families, so this is one of the important challenges. We have also changes in food; for example if you travel to China you will not see Arabic food like biryani. The schools maybe different; also the way to educate the students and the time of summer holiday. The last thing is the law; it’s different from country to country.



   There are many strategies we can use to deal with the challenges. First, before we travel to a new country and we don’t know anything about it, research is a good idea to know about countries. We can use internet or newspapers and somebody who has knowledge about countries, so you can know the language, type of food, their culture and what behavior they follow. Second, when you are in the new country and you want to communicate with your family there are many things to use; first, mobile phones, MSN messenger, face book and Skype; with those programs you can make video calls so you will see your family.



   Finally, we’ve talked about the challenges followed by the strategies which we will use before we travel to new cities or new countries; also I will remind you of one thing; some libraries have books which contain information about countries.

USA and EEC unemployment levels



   The graph shows the levels of unemployment among men and women in the USA and EEC for a 10 years period.


   The highest percent of unemployment during the 10 years period is USA men and women. In 1972 the number of registered USA men and women’s unemployment was 5 million. Then it decreased to 4.2 million in 1973 and from 1974 to 1975 the number jumped to almost 8 million but in the last year the level increased to almost 9 million. In contrast EEC men and women registered 3 million the same as USA men then in 1979 EEC men and women registered 6 million. The last year was similar to USA men and women. EEC men and USA men: there is some similarity between them. The EEC men began with 2 million then from 1976 to 1977 it was steady at 3.5 million, the same as USA men; the last year both registered 4.5 million.



   Finally, the USA men and EEC men are almost in the same increase and decrease. USA men and women register the top level and EEC men and women come second.
