In America, the technology is advanced level so people can do a lot of work from their seats. Also, spending more time with television and computer causes disease such as obesity or shorten lifespan. People, who spend free time with computer and television, do not take the time to exercise are obese.

               Second, obesity is related poverty. In America, fresh and quality foods are very expensive. So, people buy stale and poor quality foods. People put on weight quickly by eating these carbohydrate foods. Most of the people think that rich people have a lot of money so they eat too and they get fat but the exact opposite is true. Rich people are not overweight because they have quality foods and they eat orderly.

                                       MORAL EDUCATION IN SCHOOLS       

        Children begin to moral education by applying the rules. Basic moral education is given by the parents.  First, a family teaches the rules of society. Mothers and fathers contribute to the moral education of children with attitudes. A family gives moral education to their children until school age. Even after children start to go school, more family wants their children’s to continue moral education at schools. While there are lot families who support this idea, there are also lot families who do not support moral education at schools when their children become a youth. I think schools should provide moral education for youth. There are many reasons for it.

         A criticism of moral education in school is that moral education in schools teaches young people to fulfill responsibilities. When a student does not do homework, her/his teacher punishes her/him. The teacher says that he/she should do homework. The teacher mentions about this small responsibility teach them to take great responsibility, moreover, it teaches using time equally. Thanks to moral education in schools, youth spends time not only activity but also responsibility.

         Some people say that moral education teaches to act respectful to all people. In family, youth learns that they should behave respectfully to elder people. In school, they learn that they should behave respectfully to all people. Teachers teach that young people should also behave respectfully to little people. Young people can understand that respect does not connect to age. School teaches this moral value to youth.

         A criticism of moral education in school is that moral education affects forming character. Schools show that how a person should be. Schools direct youth to become beneficial and upright. A teacher mentions about which character type is the best for humaneness. Generally, moral education is not enough to being upright. I think character is affected by family.

          In conclusion, schools should provide moral education for youth. There are many reasons for it. First reason is that moral education in school is that moral education teaches young people to fulfill responsibilities. Second is that moral education teaches to act respectful to all people. Third is that moral education in school is that moral education affects forming character.

               YOUNG PEOPLE AND OLD PEOPLE (LIKE A RABBIT AND TURTLE)

                    Last night there was my birthday party and I gave a party. I invited a lot of my relatives. That night was so wonderful. My cousins and I had got amusing time but I couldn’t say the same thing for my grandparents. While time was passing, they were getting bored. When we switched on music, they couldn’t stand music and they went to their home. That moment, I realized that young people’s lives are not like old people’s lives. In fact, the lives of young people and old people differ in terms of the time they spend activities, the kind of ideas, the speed of their movements, the using of technologic devices.

                 First, young people and old people spend different amounts of time with activities. Young people spend more time with activities than old people do. Young people always are energetic. They have a lot of parties, games. Generally, they do something in contrast old people aren’t busy. They sit at home and they go to out randomly. Their relatives visit them at their home. Old people only go weddings.

               Second, young people and old people have different ideas. Young people don’t think everything in detail. They can easily choose in contrast old people are so selective. For example; when young people want to buy a dress, they don’t wait to buy it. The important thing is young people’s feelings. Their ideas are for saving day. Old people don’t like young people. Choosing a dress or something else isn’t easy for old people. They think everything with details. When they think to buy that dress, they think the next day.

               Third, young people and old people have different speeds to do something. Young people are more active than old people. Young people have advantage thanks to their body. Their body is dynamic and fresh. So, they don’t tired easily. They can run for a long time and they can work without break. Old people are absolutely different from young people for this state. Old people aren’t strong so they don’t do tiresome things. They like heavy working machine. After a while, their engine doesn’t start. Also, we can say that young people and old people are like rabbit and turtle.

                The last difference is the using technologic devices. Young people use continually technology. They are interested in technologic devices. Formerly, people wrote letter but now, they use e-mail. Young people do all their needs with technology. Generally, old people don’t use technology. So, old people want to do something, they may spend a lot of time and they may come across difficulty.

                To sum up, people’s age affect their life. Young people and old people differ from each other. Whereas young people think their life is better than old people’s life, old people have opposite idea. This opposition is known for a long time. There is a word : ‘’Every age has different beauties.’’

Nowadays, my generation spend less   time with   housework   than  my  grandmother’s  generation. We are working  for  earning  money. We don’t wait money from  only  men. My generation can earn  money the same amount   men’s  money. However, my generation can have job which  men  can  do.
