Topic #4 - Technological developments

Technology is changing the way we live. Mainly it has raised our confort, it has helped us in our homes and outside of them. Is this good for us? Most people would say yes. recent developments have made possible for us to do a great number of things wihtout leaving our homes, like having fun, work , socialize and even go shopping without leaving our homes.
We would say tha technology can only be good for us. But its not always that way.
It ias making more difficult for people to find jobs because todays machines are "stealing" a big number of work post. more people are being fired only to be replaced by machines that dont need to be paid.
So what is my opinion? I think that technology is only good when it doesnt replace a human being.

Is tourism good or bad for the people and the environment?

The tourism make part of our lives at many time ago, it's a way of relax and know new locals and new cultures, it's a shame that's not everything is good.

The tourism have lot of good things, because he allow the incomig of cash in the reciving countries, he brings also live at somme regions, and for the tourist, are always gratfying because, how alredy said it's a way of people relax and know new locals and new cultures.

Howhever, there are bad things too, because with the tourism came the criminality, the pollution and consequentily the destruction of the environment, caused f the desrespect of the people. In this days people are the enemy number one of the environment.

In my opinion if people learn to respesct each others, I think that the others things came together, like the respect to environment, the redution of criminality and came the helted tourism without preocupation for the tourist and for the people of the reciving countries.

We have to care with the environment, to our kids can visit and know the beauty of him.

Topic #5 - Tourism

Well, the theme I choose it's talh about if tourism are good or not for people and the environment. I select this one because I don't have it ideas for the others theme and this is a little bit interesting.
Tourism focus basically on to travel arround the world were the people never being and to know some new cultures and people.

The tourism it's good for people who like adventures and have money too, because to do tourism sometimes it's not cheap. But the tourism it's awesome because we kno a lot of people and their culture, who it's very good for us because we have more culture too.

Sometimes tourism it's good for environment because the tourism see the way who goes the world. And it's bad sometimes because in some countries they do bad things to environment for the tourist.

Some people who receive the tourist, they receive them as well and they agree with that and show they culture and places were they can visit. And exist other people who don't agree with that and think the tourist will go hurt or to do something bad.

I n a quick conclusion for the end of this work, the decision of it's good to do tourism or not. In my opinion I don't think if it's good or not, and the peple who maybe say if is good or not it's the minister of economy, because he see if brings money for the country. My opinion it's basically this, I don't think if it's good or not, for me this things it's not of my interess.

I will talk about the tourism and the importance that he haves for our society and if i'ts good for our environment .

Tourism is a old thing , tourism is important in our society because it makes lots of money and it brings foreigners to our contry , i'ts importante to the people , to sow them the beautifull things that our contry have and to expand there culture.

But along the years , tourism had been a risk to our environment , because of the constructions in the green zones , and the polution and the acumulation of garbage in that zones .

I think tourism is a very good thing for us , it just needs some precautions with the green zones .

Touism it makes part of peole's vacations all over the world, sometimes when people get boring and they have some time to spend without working, people travel to difrent places.

Tourism is good to enjoy with fiends, is good for local trade and most of all is good for meting new cultures and tradictions.

Tourism himself had not a negative part but, it can hlp to have more illegal persons in a country.

It's good for people traveling and met new countries but, the bad part is that it cost some money traveling so, not everybody can enjoy tourism.

In conlusion we have better reasons to have tourism than to don't have beacause it helps people to free their minds for when they come back to their jobs, they work entusiastic and more satisfied.

Tourism it's away to travel arround the world,and discovery new people, new cultures, new places, new tradictions, a lot of new things. Tourism it's very good to the people because they learn more culture and some habits.

Some people make tourism because the passion and the adrenaline, and others simply to discovery a very different places, people, etc. The tourism is good and bad to the people, it's good because we can make tourism and receive tourism, and this allows us to "change" cltures, opinions, habits, etc. About the environment, this depends the people, if we respect the environment, we don't cause any problem to him and when I say respect, I want to say don't destroy him with trash or other bad things.

In m opinion it's very good make tourism because it's very amazing and fun, we can discovery a lot of fantastic places, we ever dreamin, and I agree with the continue of tourism.

Tourism is really good.

To start, tourism is the massive deslocation of people to take on some vacations and I think that is such good as bad, depending on the point of view.

By on side, tourism is good because makes people happy and relax them, it's good for the countrys who explore that kind of activity and is good too for the people who lives in small countrys because that gives more activity and happyness to all the population. On the otherside, is bad because some people who lives in the citys who are the destination of the tourists don't like very much of being bodered by strangers and is also bad for the environment who is constantly affected and modified due to a lot of things that are provoked by the tourists.

Finally, my opinion is that tourism give us more good things that bad things and I approve it.

The envoirnment and the cultures are influenced by the tourism. The consequences tht the tourism brings to the places are very powerfull in very certain ways, because affects the industrialization and the life of the people that depend on the trade tourism to live. The environment are influenced by the tourism because the people of the citys that are depended the tourism, create better conditions in the locals that are visited by the tourists, hoping that they came more times and each year came more people to visit the citys. On the outher way the citys are full of the tourism and each year that pass the enviornment is getting more fragile and polluted because the excess of people in the citys.

The tourism make the tourists spend money in the shops, and the traders earn whit that, and because of that they can live a beter life and adquire a level of live that without the tourism they can't have.

I think that the tourism is good in the certain way that make the forigners came to our country, and that is good to our people because they spend money and we earn.

Introduction
The technological development change the lifestyle of people, now we can run with a Ipod in the pocket or work with a portable computer in anywhere. The knowledge is higher and people wants a facility life.

Development
But there are wrong things to, technological work make strees and people don't have time to enjoy sport and nature and good things that exist without machines and computers.
People face work like a bad thing, it's why most of us do work with intentional isubordination.
People in their holidays go to shopping and consume everything that see: Cinemas, music, computer, videogames, fastfood. It's a kind of tsunami thats eats people head.

Conclusion
We have to be equal and respect work, nature, environment and live also with knowledge and tecnological development.

My name is João Almeida and I'm here to talk about tourism.

First of all, tourism is practised by almost everyne on this planet. Those people who can`t afford travelling, they cannot be tourists. Tourism is a way to know our own country or other countries we haven`t visited. The tourism is very good to a country who has financial problems because if people come from different contries to visit another contry, they have to spend money and so, they countribute to the country with money. The most positve aspects of tourism is that a finational problem can be resolved if the country in cause invest on tourism. The negative aspects of tourism is that they can have problems if there are various races in the country.

Tourism can be practised everywhere but not everyone can practise tourism.

I think tourism is very important to countries.

"Is tourism good or bad for people and the environment"

Tourism is important for the richment, and helps for the development of the country.
For many reasons the tourism are good because we can learn with other cultures the habitats, the language and all of them customs. Tourism of a country contrubuit for the economy and development grow up. Make people more happy and leave their problems, is god way for people forgive their daily live. The only things that tourism is bad, is because the people who sell try to make more expensive prices for tourists than people who live in their country.
In my opinion the tourism is good for all, and help us to make a difference in our personality. I like to travel around the world and I want to be respect.

Topic #4 - Technological developments

As we know, men are always trying to improve his lifestyle, and with the introduction of technology he saw that task much more easier.

In the past technology as only used in factorys, but due to it's development, and to the changing of times, it started to be more and more used. We started to have technological equipments at home, and even more at our jobs.

This fact changed our lifestyles and the people's prospects of getting a job, because in nowadays machines do almost all the work, and people are being dismissed each time more, and more.

In the future this will probably lead to a change on he world, because it will be controled by machines, and men will be no longer necessary.

Topic #4 - Technological developments

Techonological developments is very important to us in nowadays, in our lifes, they are getting more important to us day after day and seems in the future we will be more dependent of techologies, machines.

techonologies have in these days a big importance, they give advantages for us, for the development, for the indrustry, because with their help we can do everything more faster, with more quality.

But in the "World of Techonologies exist disadvantages, like the big dependence that we have for them, the less oppurtunities and prospects for people to getting a job, sometimes the despise of people to people cause by machines, discrimination, and finally the big accomodation that exist at the moment by people based on machines, because in these days the techonological development are so skilled and capable that they do almost everything for people.

Finally, techonologies are very important nowadays, they give us advantages and disadvantages, they can't live without them, that's for sure!

Topic #5 - Tourism

Tourism. It's a way of life to many people and, even, countries (like ours). There are people that live for and because of it.

Due to tourism, people can earn lots of money, due to renting houses, selling shirts, etc. Another reason why tourism is a good thing, it's because we know new countries and cultures, weathers... But it's bad for our wallet and because there are people that get advantage and get ilegal to work there.

About the environment, it's nice because it obliges villages to improve their conditions.
But some tourists make things like leaving trash and make stupidities when drunk.
In my opinion, tourism is one of the best things there are now. If I was in High-School, it was the course I would choose, because it's the one that's developping more and more in the last years.
