6.The Internet in my life. The advantages and disadvantages of Media education.

The Internet plays an important role in my life. I use it every day to speek with my friends, listen to music and watch videos. The Internet helps me do my homework by finding the necessary information. I also play online games, which gives me pleasure.

But the Internet also has negative sides. Sometimes I spend a lot of time on videos and games, forgetting my lessons. My eyes can get tired from looking at the screen for a long time. There are also people who may try to deceive or hurt others on the Internet.

However, the Internet is very useful if you use it correctly. It helps you learn to develop skills and chat with new people.

4.My favourite elective school subjects. Are they connected with my future profession?

1st text. I want to become a programmer in the future, so I chose an elective in school to study programming. I’ve been using a computer since I started from the age of 3 and, spend almost 24/7 on it. I easily memorize codes and their functions, and I really enjoy working on the computer. I would feel comfortable working from home online and earning money.

2nd text. My favorite elective is programming. I chose this profession because it gives me the opportunity to success. Programming allows me to create websites, applications, games, and various programs. It is a rapidly developing field where there is always an opportunity to learn something new.

In order to become a high-quality specialist, I need to deepen my knowledge in English and mathematics, as they are necessary for solving complex problems and creating effective algorithms. Programming develops logic, creative thinking, problem-solving skills, knowledge and skills for any technological field.

In the future, I want to work on innovative projects, provide for my family and be independent. In this field, it is possible to work from anywhere in the world, have a free schedule, choose projects that are really interesting. By learning a lot and gaining experience, I can achieve all my goals.

In addition, through programming, you can create interesting and developing games that millions of people can enjoy. Modern games require high-end technology, well-designed graphics, and an interesting plot, requiring high skills from technological programmers. I want to one day create my own game that will become famous all over the world and bring new opportunities for my professional growth.

1. Save Our  Space. We need your help to clean up our city. What have you ever done or are going to do to keep it clean?

Air pollution is rising due to factories, cars, and human activities. In many cities, pollution exceeds safe limits by 20–50%, and in industrial areas, by 60–80%. This harms health, causing breathing issues and heart disease. Reducing emissions and using clean energy can help.

Save Our Space is about keeping our planet clean and protecting nature from pollution.

a few days ago, my friend and I collected trash near the school and threw it into the bins. This helps keep the area clean and shows others that littering is wrong. It’s also important to sort waste, recycle plastic and paper to reduce pollution. If everyone takes care of the environment, nature will stay beautiful and healthy.

2.Your school trips. Tell me about your last trip or about the trip which you liked most of all

School trips are organized visits outside the school for educational or recreational purposes. They can include trips to museums, historical sites, nature parks, or even other countries. Some trips last multiple days, allowing students to stay overnight in hotels, camps, or dormitories, making the experience more immersive and memorable.

3. What would you change, if you could change one important thing in your country?. Use reasons and specific examples to support your answers.

I don’t want to change anything because I am satisfied with everything.

5. What are the advantages of studying at Mkhitar Sebastatsi EduComplex?

Our school has many good things. For example, you can choose your favorite sports club and go every week. We also have language groups to learn Spanish, French, Georgian, etc. There are clubs for your future or hobbies. I chose the programming club, but there are others like pottery or music clubs where you can play on instruments. There is a football field for buses and a volleyball court with real sand, also horizontal bars. But almost 90% of schools in our country don’t have these things, and that makes our school special.

I have no complaints since everything I need is already there, including sections for publishing titles and other tools. Yes, a blog can be used as an educational tool.

8. Educational camps in our school. Which camp do you prefer-summer or winter? Why? Tell about your favourite activity during the camps.

I like the camp in Arates, especially in winter, because there is a lot of snow. Last time I went there for a military-sport camp. In the morning we woke up, ran, trained, had breakfast, and shot at targets. The first night we walked around the area in turns. The second night as it was very cold outside, we stayed in the houses and watched the stove, so it wouldn’t run out and other kids wlouldn’t get cold. We took turns looking after the fire. That’s how my camp went.

9. Sports and art in my life:

Sports and art have a place in my life. I often play football. Sports helps me stay strong and healthy. I also train at home, run to be faster and stronger. Training keeps me fit and feeling good.

10.Do we live to work or work to live?

We work to live. Some people start with nothing but work hard every day. With time and effort, they reach their goals and change their lives. Hard work helps us live better and build our future. Work not only allows us to provide for ourselves, but also helps us achieve our goals. Without work, it is impossible to live well. Work provides us with everything we need: food, clothing, and shelter. The more we work, the better we live.

Thanks to a healthy lifestyle, I rarely get sick maybe once a year. It gives me energy and keeps me strong.
