All modules in Reported speech

         Ideas worth spreading, especially when you consider that such mature and wise thoughts about modern living or environmental issues may actually change our world. Well, ideas and dreams may sometimes have an incredible and stupendous effect on people's lives.
         For this very reason, classmates and I were given the task to go and share the information. There were five main topics, which we were supposed to unite into the one educational and enlightening speech. There were: environmental issues and nature, modern living, dreams and goals, literature and, finally, health.
         First and foremost, I've shared information about the National Park, called Tsingy Bemaraha. I said that with such a tremendous collection of species under its care, The Madagascan government had set aside about fifty areas of special interest as national parks. Secondly, I told everyone that humpback whales were under the threat of extinction, due to some environmental problems, such as oil pollution or water pollution. Moreover, the information about eco-tourism, signs of the times and the London Marathon was shared. In short, people make choices every day. It really depends on different factors, time, money, ego or feelings are the most obvious ones, but we should always choose for the best. I said that people were the only one, who were responsible to choose to be brave and have a strong will power, to be eco-friendly and to move with the times. 
         In addition, I insisted on reading more books, which, literally, reflect our problems and predict the future. For instance, I told that Baley's boss in the science-fiction book called "The Caves of Steel" was the only one, who believed that we shouldn't stay away from nature. Surprisingly, but history teacher warned me not to become a modern-style addict. It's quite sensible that we need to be in contact with nature and don't let robots into our everyday life. 

         All in all, I said to them that people had been living egotistically for a long time. Anyway, we need remain sensible in any situation.

Creative writing

Situation one. Dialog one.

- Hello, mate! I'm about to visit a bookshop, where Stephen King will present his new book called "The Langoliers"!

-Hey! I have never been keen on any horror stories, but, anyway, can you tell me something about Stephen King's books? I am looking forward to exploring new artist and his masterpiece.

-It's a pleasure. I can say without any the least hesitation that I am fond of his work. Frankly speaking, he is a master of scaring as he is a king of scaring.

-Sounds awesome. What about "The Langoliers"?

-Without a doubt, all readers feel and understand the plot differently. To my mind, the plot as the one about the waste of time. The main idea is unusual and kind of educational. 

- What is the best part of this book?

- The thing I like the most is the number of different characters who differ from one another in their social status, way of thinking, their fears and ambitions. 

- I adore such educational and breathtaking books!

-It's quite evident that it teaches us to value our time and to remain sensible in any situation.

-I'm definitely interested! Can you send me exact information about the visit?

-Sure! See you there, mate! 

Situation two. Dialog two.

-Hey, have you heard that Taysom Hill, the quarterback for the New Orleans Saints of the National Football league, is about to visit our school!

-No way! It's such an honor for High School of California! 

-Mr. Standfild told me that we are doing to interview him. Do you have any ideas? 

-He is such an inspiration. The first thing that comes to my mind is asking him about his favorite NFL player.

-What a great idea. Moreover, I'd like to ask him about their game against the Pioneers.

-Alright. I heard that he just became the captain of the team. Should we ask him about this? 

- No doubt. Do you know the exact time of his visit? 

-Yes, next Tuesday, 2pm. It's the best time to ask him about his workout routine because he works out every Tuesday at his local gym. I've read it in the sports magazine. 

-Awesome. Can we meet tomorrow during the launch break in case to discuss this interview a little bit more? 

- Sure! I'll meet you in the hall.

Special Event During the Environment Week (p.115, Task 2)

                 You might not know this, but the special event during the Environment Week is being held at the school. Frankly speaking, there are just four options: a clean up the park/beach day, a workshop on how to make homes more environmentally friendly, morning planting plants in the local park, an afternoon collecting money for a local environmental. 
          Actually, I am easily carried away by any unusual activity or something innovative. However, a cleanup day isn't the best choice if we want to attract as many people as we can. Moreover, there is absolutely no chance that we will be capable of doing something like a workshop, especially when you consider that only children are involved. They will probably fail such an intense and intricate task.
          Nevertheless, we still have two fascinating and enlighting ways to organize the event. As we all know: as you sow, you shall mow. Gardening is believed to be one of the most relaxing hobbies, children always get excited about planting flowers like tulips, camomiles or daffodils. Actually, this isn't something I have ever considered but in short, I suppose I would possibly take part in such an event, especially if I were provided with the chance to do this. Without any the least hesitation, I would definitely organize the morning planting plants in the local park. First and foremost, it's easy as ABC so the whole school can be involved. Secondly, plants will make radical changes to our local environment. 
         All in all, I consider it reasonable to say that tasted differ and so many men - so many minds. I am ready to organize each event, but I'd rather fall for planting.
