Educational programmes(3)
No one can deny that Educational programmes are of great importance for many students. They save time, money and effort. O one hand , They provide a private teacher for students to help them achieve their goals. On the other hand , They are a growing means that completes the learning process . They give students tips on how to get down to a study plan ;making a "to do list " ; learning how to manage their time properly . You watch them on TV or you can listen to them on radio . I prefer watching TV as learning by watching is more useful than listening .in the end , educators should pay more attention for developing the educational programmes .
Desert reclamation(4)
Desert is a source of wealth ; it is a means that solves many of our complicated problems .It is an outlet of these problems which eat up any achieved progress .Now , feeding the world is the best problem of the new century as the world faces a severe shortage in food supplies . we can benefit from the desert through reclaiming it ; setting up new projects and constructing new cities .By and large , we share the responsibility with the government in the sense that we take steps to reclaim the desert .
On one hand, the government provides the youth with plots of desert land for reclamation. On the other hand, the youth should have the strong will and zeal. In the end, converting the desert into green land has become an urgent task to solve our problems and to live in welfare.
Money (5)
No wonder if we say that money has its good and positive effects on us .It is a mixed blessing which man can't do without. Some people say "Money is the root of all evil." They think that it is the motive behind crimes, deviation and waging wars among countries. Other people think it will solve all the worlds problems. Everyone agrees there is never enough of it as nothing is worth than wealth in life. However money is not the answer to every thing. You cant buy love or happiness, but as some one said "if you are going to be unhappy, it is easier to be unhappy in comfort." Therefore, we can make the best use of it in many peaceful aims. It helps build up medical centres, public hospitals, more schools and more land for agriculture which in affects our economy well.
.Through these visits we see many countries of the world and get in touch with the peoples of other nations .When we visit a foreign countries ,we see different kinds of life and listen to new ideas .Some people also go abroad for the purposes of education .They can do post graduate studies there .Others go abroad for holidays .They go to new places that worth seeing .In addition .travelling abroad is useful for health as it helps to renew ones health . I mean changing the places and scenery calms the nerves .It also widens the scope of mind .It helps to develop friendly relations .Businessmen travel abroad to buy and sell .Some people travel abroad to work and bring hard currency which is useful to our economy .Last but not the least , travelling abroad helps to develop ones way of thinking and dealing with others .In brief ,travelling abroad is a real pleasure .
Planting Trees(9)
Plants make the world a pleasant place to live in . In fact , man adores the beauty of the nature .Their different colours and shapes drew his attention .Thus, planting trees in the streets of town and cities provides them with the green colour .Trees make streets comfortable places and us feel at ease enjoy everything around us .Trees provide us with shade in summer when the sun is hot .They prevent fog in winter .Trees also shelter us in summer from hot rays of the sun and are a source of relief .
On the other hand, the green leaves help to keep the air pure and healthy .Plants are the Oxygen-making factories as they absorb Carbon Dioxide and release Oxygen, which is necessary for us to breathe. Hence, they reduce the amount of pollution from the environment. So we should have a sense of responsibility towards trees . Thus when you plant a tree, you are helping your environment and your city .But can you imagine a city without trees.
Practising Sport(10)
Sport, what a word! we hear it everyday on TV and the radio .It is of great value and significance not for a sportsman but to an ordinary man alike .Its importance lies in good manners man acquires .Contrary to wasting time and bad habits , sport purifies mans soul as it forms his character . Sport also creates man of tomorrow, who is able to defend himself and his homeland .Also sport teaches us team work, thus sport shouldnt be neglected. On the other hand, sport has a social effect as youth can spend their leisure time usefully .It t decorates our country with glory. Last but not the least , we should considers Omar's saying " teach your children swimming, javelin throwing and horse riding " .Also , we should remember this proverb "A sound mind in a sound body ".
Unemployment (12)
10
Unemployment has become a serious problem for most countries particularly the developing ones .It is the stumbling block for the progress and advance of a country .For its welfare and prosperity .In fact, most university graduates find no work nowadays, so they waste their times unwisely. And as a result, they become a means of destruction and ruin to their own society .Youth who find no jobs anywhere may be an easy catch to those who drive them in the wrong direction. They can easily commit horrible crimes against their country. It is time for us to unite, co-operate and stand as one man to find quick solutions to this thorny problem .So the government should provide the newly graduated youth with free loans to set up small projects .Moreover ,the youth shouldnt wait for the government posts but they should learn different professions to help them earn their living . To sum up it is time every graduate to have his own business to earn his living.
Friendship (13)
"A friend in need is a friend indeed ".That is the whole thing. To have a true , faithful friend is to seize the whole world .Thus , the most fundamental kind of love , which underlines all types of love , is fraternal love .I mean brotherly love : to love your friend as your brother for nothing without any compensation , to stand beside him up shoulder to shoulder in joy and sorrow , to be his mirror that reflects his defects and even advises neither deceive him .To love your friend is to hold the sense of responsibility , care ,respect and the wish to further his life regardless of any private interests .I mean to be the lantern that lights his way ,reveals his motives , intentions even good or bad they are front of him . Moreover , man is social by nature .He cant live without a friend . That is impossible ! Man needs friends to cooperate with him .They can help him when he is in trouble .So , man must select good friends .In addition to that ,bad friends are like a plague .
11
where tourists can enjoy beautiful mountain and blue sea and lots of sunshine and do water sports as swimming diving and skiing . On the other hand , our tourist today wants efficient and friendly services .So , we should behave towards tourists I a civilized manner and welcome them to our country to come again .Moreover , the tourist would probably prefer to try out samples of our local food than to eat the international meals which are served in some places . This would be more interesting than having the same things always eaten in his country. Finally, one can say that tourism is very vital to our economy and that no country can do without it .
12
and solutions .On one hand , the way people think about it differs according to their point of view . Some say that it is due to inflation which penetrates money circulation .Others believe that it is due to human greed and monopoly .Thus , the government must pass strict laws to fix the prices of goods .Also it should remove the customs barriers .Moreover , attracting foreign and Arabic capital for investment would be the sure solution .Prices must be fixed and the necessaries of life must be rationed .House wives should rationalize their consumption . Citizens should co-opeate with the government to punish the greedy traders .In a word , we should cut down consumption and increase production .
Advertisements on TV(18)
In modern times ,advertisements on TV are of great importance for manufacturers , consumers and TV viewers .They are very important for manufacturers as they attract a big number of people to buy goods .Advertisements help the manufacturers to advertise their goods and they can make a good propaganda for their goods as supply is greater than demand .Advertisements create competition among to different manufacturers which in turn has a good effect on enhancing the quality of goods .Also, advertisements affect TV viewers greatly as they give them ideas about the products and its prices . However, some companies owners take advertisements as a way out from paying their taxes .Meanwhile, TV advertisements in Egypt reflect the Egyptian culture as we can learn a lot about a country from them .These advertisements give us a fairly true picture about the taste of people and their culture .Of course, TV makes a lot of money from these advertisements. In a word, we buy a particular product because we think it is the best .We usually think so because the advertisements say so.

etc .He is taught the art of expression and the ability of comprehension both in his language and in a foreign language .In the end , everyone cant do without education .
15
.government has set up new cities and encouraged banks to lend those who hunt for settling at low interest .The government has set up new cities and encouraged investors to build new houses to be inhabited at reasonable prices .
Mobile phones(29)
Mobile phones are of great importance to many people in society from a businessman to an ordinary man. They can't do without. In 16
time of emergency people need to make a phone call asking for the ambulance help. In travel, mobiles are necessary to tell other people how you are doing. But some people have bad habits when using mobiles. They sometimes disturb people indoors unnecessarily at midnight. While driving, they may cause death, so the government should pass strict laws against using them while driving. However, doctors warn people of its drawbacks exposing themselves to the side effects of electromagnetic a., waves causing cancer. So people should use mobile phones more wisely and quietly.
Water(30)
Nothing can live without water. The water we drink is a blessing of Allah; however we are not wise in using it. Everyone should feel sorry for every drop of water wasted in our house. We all know that water is necessary for drinking, cooking, washing and irrigation. We are going to reclaim new areas of desert land. Meanwhile, water is a renewable source of energy which is cheap to generate electricity. So, all people should know how to care for every drop of water because the next century will witness a severe attack and an endless war for providing water supplies
Health(31)
Health is a priceless treasure that completes our happiness and a gift of Allah. We cannot really enjoy our life if we are unhealthy. For an unhealthy person, life is no more than pain and suffering. He is a helpless member who cannot take part in the process of development. However, healthy people are always good members in their societies and help to achieve its welfare and progress. So, people should take care of their personal cleanliness as it is tremendously important in the prevention of many kinds of infections. In order to be healthy, we must be clean. We must never eat food that smells bad or swollen canned food. We should always wash hands before and after a meal. We must either boil tap water or cool it before we drink. In the end, as it has been said that "prevention is better than cure" so everybody should pay attention to his health.
Charity Societies(32)
Charity Societies are organizations for helping the poor everywhere. Rich people establish them. They do their best to make homeless and poor children live in a reasonable standard. They offer them care in different 17
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 taxes for 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.
The television(34)
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. .
18
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.
19
addition, buying our local products creates job opportunities for our youth and brings hard currency which need to import our needs. There is no doubt that our products have the Egyptian taste which 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 raises our standard of living.
