   Dependency on new technologies is a big problem and it is increasing very fast in our society. Nowadays, we have access to the internet from our mobile phones and many other gadgets like tablets. This fact encourage people to communicate with others through them and they prefer sending a message to meet with their friends and speaking face to face. Sometimes, when a group of people is together, they use their mobile phone from time to time, and they don't really pay attention to the people who are in front of them. New technologies are also a cause of academic failure, since young people doesn't concentrate on what they are studying since they stop to take a look at their mobile phones and see if they have comments on the pictures they upload on facebook or to answer the whatsapps they get. If people continue to use their gadgets in an uncontrolled way, social relationships will change completely and school failure will continue to happen.

  

    In order to overcome this problem, the government should provide talks by psychologists to explain the risks of this extended situation to adults and teenagers. They would tell them that the addiction to gadgets can be very dangerous because people are more absent-minded and stress and they don't enjoy the present. They should also give pieces of advice to parents about how to keep their children away from their mobile phones when they are studying or doing homework, so they can concentrate on what they're doing. Parents should also have an active participation in this task, and they would be expected to follow the guidelines that psychologists gave to them, which would include take the gadgets away while their children are working in something. If people follow these suggestions, new technologies won't be a big problem in the society any more. 

DOING ACTIVITIES BY MYSELF IS SOMETHING THAT I REALLY LIKE BUT MOST PEOPLE DON'T

  Something that I really like doing while other people don't is doing activities alone. For example, I don't like practicing team sports such as football or basketball, but the individual ones like swimming and dancing. In my opinion, these activities are a good way to forget about the routine and find ourselves in many ways. When it comes to studying, I also choose to do it alone as for me it is very important to be concentrated. In addition, I am very keen on saying things aloud because this helps me a lot to remember information and I couldn't do it if I met with other people to study. I'm also fond of reading, which is another individual activity; I think it is very helpful because you learn new things from it and it makes you use your imagination; so I believe that more people should do it. It is shown that doing activities alone helps you to improve your self-steem and confidence. In conclusion, I can say that doing activities on my own has always helped me and I recommend other people to try it.

Reading from book and reading from e-book are not very different experiences

Reading from printed book is very similar from reading from an e-book, since both have been created for the same purpose. First of all, in both of them a story is written, and you have to use your imagination to feel the events that are told. Another similarity is that the printed book and the e-book have the same structure, the story is divided in chapters and every single page is numbered, so they both help the reader to organize the story in different parts. Another thing in common is that both a printed book and an e-book tells exactly the same story, with the same words that the author has written, so the reader can enjoy what they are reading equally. One curious similarity is that, although the e-book is electronic, in both of them you can turn the page, and experiment the feeling of progress that is very important when you read something; this is a  psychological matter, which was thought to be essential to incorporate in the e-book. A last similarity is that the book and the e-book are easy to get, there are a lot of stores where you can buy them. In conclusion, you can see that even a lot of people think than reading from a printed book and reading from a e-book are very different experiences, they are really similar.

Living in the city or living in the country

Living in the city is very different from living in the countryside. If you live in the city, you can move around very easily and fast. However, you have to take the car to go to many places if you live in the country and it takes you a lot of time when you go to work, to school or to the hospital. Another difference is that, in the city, there's always a lot of noise and sometimes it can be really disgusting, or even affect your mood and make you be stressed and tired. In contrast, the countryside is very quiet and peaceful, so you can be more relaxed and feel more free there. In the city there's also a lot of pollution and it affects your heath in a negative way, while in the countryside the air is cleaner and it is better for your lungs.The life in the city is safer than the life in the country, since in the city you are surrounded by a lot of neighbors that can help you or call the police is something is wrong, but in the country people are usually further from other people, and the houses with garden are more liable for thieves to get into. The activities people do in the city are also very different form the ones people in the country do. The people who live in the country usually do activities such as riding a bike, gardening, especially middle-aged people, or reading. On the other hand, the people in the city do other kind of activities like going to the cinema or going clubbing. As you can see, both ways of life have advantages and drawbacks, and none of them is better than the other.
