Recycling

                   
        
          After we'd finished the project on the environment at school, I knew I had to start RECYCLING. To begin with in this lesson I learned that plastic isn't a natural thing and needs million years to be destroyed. Also, some plastics give off dangerous gases whenyou burn them. For this reason, wehave to RECYCLE this materials. Moreover, learned that paper is made of wood and people cut down many trees which results in big destructions, for instance floods, less oxygen and of course the destruction of the rainforests. Before the project, I used to throw away all the rubbish in a green bin without RECYCLING anything, whereas now I care where I throw it away. 
          
          I have decided to RECYCLE paper, plastic bags and glass in a different bin. Also, I REUSE plastic bags and usually I use recycling bags. Then, I use paper very carefully. Moreover, I suggest to my friends and of course to my family to support this effort.

        RECYCLING I think, is a bit difficult because it needs careful work and very big organisation,but I achieved my purpose and I feel very proud of what, we'd achieved and very glad I'd been able to help. Also, this success made me more enthusiastic and absolutely excited.

an article

                                                                                     

Dear Editor,

       I recently read an article in your newspaper about pop music. The writer critized the singers and I would like you to

permit me to disagree with her.

 

      To begin with, I believe that this music is very interesting for teenagers. They find a really ecxiting thing to do. In addition, the lyrics make the mind of teenagers more active because they sometimes learn some of he songs.  

 

      

            Moreover, I thing that some bands play excellent musical instrumets. Then, I believe that the gap between live music and the music created on a computer is not too big if we think that technology evolves. Also, many famous pop singers have offered money to many poor people and some of them have funded public buildings. Finally, I think that lots of pop musicians take big risks with new style and this is a fact which needs lots of effort.

      In conclusion, I would like to say that our generation includes young, talented and hard - working pop musicians.                        

 

                         Yours faithfully,

      Marinos Varverakis

 

The La Notte pizzeria

   Yesterday I ate at a pizzeria called <La Note>.I have eaten in this pizzeria in the past because it's near to         
  my house.
   When I came in ,I saw a very friendly and warm atmosphere.The atmosphere was as welcoming and 
  friendly as the owners.The staff was very polite,too.Also,the service was very -very fast. 
    The food was beautifully presented and had a very good taste.Also, the food was very well baked 
   and that's a reason which this pizza was very good.  
     I would recommend this pizzeria to my friends because the food was delicious and the prices were very 
   reasonable.

Putting on a concert!!!

  If you want to do something fun with your friends why don't you put on a concert?It's very easy and you will enjoy it.
  First you have to choose the singers.Will they be two,three or more?Then you have to choose who is going to play an instrument.Of course you must choose the kind of music.Do you want it to be pop music,for example?
  It's a good idea to have regular rehearsals.You should decide the time and the place of the rehearsals.For example,at the weekends at 7 o'clock.Your friends can't learn their songs quickly,so don't push them to hurry up.Also you have to find the costumes.
  When you are ready invite people,but first you should decide the time and the place of the concert.If you want you can make a poster of the concert!Have fun and good luck!
