The Government plans to shorten the length of the school holidays in order to improve the level of education. In my view, this would have some negative conseqences.
In the first place, I believe that school holidays are needed fo students because they get tired. So if it is introduced, I've no doubt that a lot of them will have difficulty in studying. I also think that this would discriminate against students, who aren't all irresponsible.
If the aim of the government is to improve the level of education, it seems to me that there's a better alternative. If they spend more money on better books and salery of teachers and more comfortable learning conditions.
In conclusion, although I realize that we need to improve the level of education, I feel strongly that this new opinion is not the answer.

The government plans to take into account the children's ideas in creating the new flag because their ideas can be non-standart and interesting. I think there can be some negative consequences.
I think that children can go too far with the elements in the new flag and then it will look untidy or with too much details. Our flag is memorable and famous, so if it will have a lot of details then it will be difficult to remember.
Positive point in this idea is that children might have interesting ideas, but I am not sure. If the aim of the government is to create a new cool flag, I think they can ask for help of modern designers.
In conclusion I realize that we need to upgrade our flag, but I hope we won't use children's ideas because they can be really absurd.

The government plans to introduce a new law about school uniform. According to it children don't have to wear uniform.
In the first place, I think schools must give the best education to pupils. If you study in a prestigious school, you wil be proud of its chevron on the jackets.
I believe that a beautiful uniform will suit all school children. There won't be bright colours or torn jeans. But I want to mention that jackets aren't comfortable under coats. So, pupils can be allowed to wear jumpers in cold weather.
In conclusion, I want all pupils study in great schools and wear nice uniform.

Some people say that a flag is just an atribute,which can be changed every year.In my opinion.flag is very important for every country.Thanks for flag people remember the countries.
The Government plans to introduce a new law which will mean that people can design a new flag for our country.I think that this law wouldn't discriminate young artists who will like to participate in a competition.
On the other hand, our flag is a symbol of Ukrainian independence.Our flag is blue and yellow,blue colour means the blue sky and yellow stands for wheat which is grown in ours rich soils. If the aim of the Government is to introduce a new flag i can't see a better altenative .One more reason not to change the flag is our Ukrainian history. Our flaf is its essencial part.In conclusion,I don't agree that we need a new flag,because I really like our yellow and blue one.So I suppose that law won't be introduced.

The Goverment plans to introduce a new law which will mean shortering of the length of the school holidays will improve the level of education .In my view this would have some negative consequenses
In the first place I belive that holidays are important because children and theachers have an opportunity to relax. I've no doubt that a lot of them will not want to go to the school after the goverment's new plans .I also think that it's unfair to study so long
It seems to me that it won't be a good afternative if children don't relax enough. They won't study hard then.
In conclusion although I realize that we need to improwe the level of education I feel strongly that this new law isn't the answer.

Teenagers can’t vote in elections. Vote only after eighteen. Because the state believes that they are still socially unformed by the age of 18 and they can’t participate in the elections. In my opinion, it should be allowed to vote after 16 because they should choose in which country they live and under whose control. Still, they also want to express an opinion on what kind of goverment the want to live

As for me the age of election should be limited.
I support 18 for voting, but I`m against voting after 65.
At that age people cant understand the reality of life.
They can`t understand most events.
So, it would be better if their children voted for them.

I think it's a good idea for people from other countries to come to our country when they want. Many tourists can learn more about our country. Although it may have negative consequences. For example, terrorists may enter into our country. Also if it will be free money for travel will not be paid to our state and it can go bankrupt. So I think that tourism is good for us and we do not have to change anything

Many people think that ideal society is without any laws and everybody can do everything.
But to my mind, all rules were created for maintenance of order in the country. Your rights mustn't restrict the rights of other. Don't forget that this can lead to an increase in criminality. Laws are needed and ignorance of them doesn't relieve the responsibillity.
For me, ideal society is a place where everyone has got his own voice and state really cares about her cirizens.

Hi everybody,
Here is my students' presentation with their thoughts about the perfect world.

What makes a perfect world?


Best,
Ms Byzova

I suppose, it is a good idea no borders. People from all the world could visit another countries and learn more about other cultures. For exemple, we can come to arab countries when we want it. Iw will be nice, because different peoples will be more friendly

To my mind, the most important people in the world — are teenagers.
Every president know that the new generation can change the world, but refuse to hear young people. Many educational systems aren't good and world loses it's clever individuals. So if my idea was important — I'd change schools and education for every country.    Firstly, if everyone wants to live in a modern world and be a friend with technology — we must give an opportunity to study in poor countries of Africa, homeless people or people with disabilities. Also, it will be great to build the same schools for different nationalities, so they won't be offended by the society.   Secondly, most of the teenagers loose their concentration and ability to clearly thinking because of stress. They can't even sleep, studying at night and always feel worried about the exams with homework. I guess, it would be perfect to replace everything for creative lessons, tests with pictures or computer exams. It can remove anxiety as well and develope children's fantasy.   Thirdly, many students waste their time and nerves on the unnecesarry lessons and in most countries they can't choose the main subjects when they go to the first class.In my opinion, the government should make a rule for choosing around ten basic subjects that will be useful for children's future jobs. So if you want to have efficient people — make all the conditions of their good studying.
All in all, we must appreciate the fresh thoughts of kids and listen to their opinion.
I believe, that one day our energy will ruin the past boring life and create a new world of technologies with better schools and education!

Coming back to the new reform of Education I would like to say that only those people
who know the life in schools can write lows for education.
They are very far away from school.
So our students must sit at their lessons half nigt if they want to be ready for classes.
I wish you would come to the Ministery of Education after the university
and addopt useful laws for students.

I think, your idea is really great and important for us. I hope it will happen one day
and teenagers' life will become easier.

What if there was only one currency in the world?
In my opinion it would be a great opprotunity for our world to become a better place,and here's why:
The Bank System will completely change and all of 154 currencies and currency exchanges will dissapear.No one will have to worry about inflation or default.Nobody will have to worry that dollar has risen up again.If there would be only one bank on the Earth,you won't have to worry about robbery.With no risks bank will compensate your money back,since sooner or later your lost money will return to bank anyway.It is possible that greenbacks will have an interwsting and bizzare design.This decision might make our world a bit friendlier!And become a one,big family!

What do you know about cyber security? I think a little bit, so let's see what is a cybercrime?
Cybercrime is theft of information or personal data from your mobile device or computer. Thieves use it for their own purposes. You don’t think about it while you enter your data into an unknown source. You usually enter your name, surname, credit card number, bank account or your phone number.
What will happen then?
You will forget about it or just do not pay attention to it. You think that nothing will happen, but you're wrong. Hackers can use your data for bad things. They can steal money from your credit card; they can threaten others using your email or phone number or worse.
So think where and to whom you transfer your personal data by typing it on the Internet. Use only proven sites and use antivirus software. Now you will be more careful while surfing the internet.

All of us use the Internet for studying,communicating or relaxing. But do you know about the thing that can ruin your
easy online life – cybercrime?
One of the most popular types of cybercrime is phishing. According to
Wikipedia, phishing is the attempt to obtain sensitive information such asusernames, passwords, and credit card details, often for malicious reasons, by
disguising as a trustworthy entity in an electronic communication. Phishing emails usually appear to come from a well-knownorganization and ask for your personal information — such as credit card
number, social security number, account number or password. Often times phishing attempts appear to come from sites, services and companieswith which you do not even have an account. To protect yourself fromphishing, think twice before sending your personal data to an unknown person.
Another popular type of cybercrime is identity theft. You may say: ‘How can
anybody steal my identity?’ Well, it’s possible on the Internet.  You may see withdrawals from your bankaccount that you can't explain. You might not get your bills or other mail. Debt
collectors might call you about debts that aren't yours. You may find
unfamiliar accounts or charges on your credit report. What to do? Well, you
should go to the police and block your credit card in the bank.
There are many other types of cybercrime. To cut the story short, I’ll give you
advice to be careful on the web and always be on the lookout.

Many countries took part in the creation of the history of Ukraine. One of these countries was the Ottoman Empire.The beginning of the Ukrainian-Turkish relations of world history, obviously, should be attributed to 1621. Sultan Osman II on the eve of the Hotinsky Battle with the Commonwealth invited the sergeant of the Zaporozhye Army to join him. In the case of Ukrainian support, the Ottoman Empire, according to some reports, pledged even to support the initiatives of the Kozak state with its capital in Kiev or Kamenets-Podolsky. Some sources claimed that one of the reasons for the overthrow was that Zaporozhye hetman Yakov Borodavka (Neroda) was the suspicion of his secret relationship, and the researchers of this issue noted that in 1624 the Zaporozhye Army already as semi-states had concluded allied agreement with the Crimean Khanate. It was this Kozak-Crimean agreement that left a significant imprint on the signing of the peace agreements of Hetman Bohdan Khmelnytsky "with this largest vassal of the Ottoman Empire, and also the High Porta in a quarter of a century.

Last week I read a fable  novel by "Jonathan Livingston Seagull". This work fascinated me with its simplicity from one side, and at the same time with its depth of thoughts and the importance of the problems which were brought up by the author. The main character in the book is a simple seagull which can dream and isn’t afraid to defend its ideals, despite the fact that they are not always the same with the flock’s ones.

In the form of the seagull Richard Bach, the author of the book, represents each of us and who we could have become if we hadn’t obeyed the laws of space or time.

However, I was disappointed with the fact that most of my classmates were not interested in this book as much as me, and they said that they hadn’t found any deep meaning in it.

"Jonathan Livingston Seagull" isn’t a simple book, and everyone should read it carefully in order to see the parallels to the real life of human beings. The book makes the attentive readers to question themselves whether they are really free in life. There are lots of human passions which do not let us get away from the earth, fly and find the meaning of our life, become truly free and independent of the trivial concerns.

While reading this essay, I felt like I was growing my own wings, which were weak and yet they gave me the strength to believe that we will be able to rise above all which is pushing us to the ground and find spiritual freedom eventually.

I advise this book to every person who listens to the call of the heart and despite all of the failures continues his way to the new discoveries, and doesn’t let go the unattainable dream.

One type of the cyber crimes is carding. It means spreading a computer virus.
Two years ago,someone made virus,which was called "Petya".This virus is encrypted to your files,and to recover them,you must send 300$ from your Bitcoin wallet IS and a personal key.The first attack was in America.It wasn't made to get a lot of money,because Petya doesn't recover your files,it destroys them irretrievably.Maybe,it was an experiment,but we don't know about it.
Please,be careful with Petya.

My perfect world
First of all there shouldn't be wars and bloodshed in the perfect world. The foundation of a perfect world is understanding and charity. All laws will be aimed not on ristricting freedom of a person. For all people there will be opportunities for development and career growth.And for sure there will be no hunger, deseases and natural disasterts

In Kiev, scammers in the guise of ATO fighters are trying to rent an apartment

This was talked about by volunteer Maria Berlinska.

The girl notes that the swindlers place an announcement on the lease of apartments in the capital, requiring at the same time to pre-transfer the payment on a bank card.

"The apartment crook in camouflage. I'm looking for an apartment here. Carefully go, look at the options. The budget is small, but I do not like luxury. Arrange a simple option in the sleeping area. And I often fall into fraud. But today's case should be described separately. Ads on OLX are two-bedroom, near Golden. Suspect cheap, but I call. In vybar photo fighter, Ukrainian flag, everything should be. And then the circus begins ", - the volunteer tells.

Berlin notes that with further communication it turns out that the "ATO fighter" does not even know the calligrant of his combatant. In this case, the swindler hurts in every way and asks for a prepayment to be canceled.

"I'm laughing. Be careful, be careful with such" connoisseurs "of people", - summed up Berlin.
