Abstract

Russia's population is shrinking. This research paper argues that the best solution that Russia should use in order to stop its population from declining is decreasing its death rate. There are three steps that Russia should take to decrease its death rate. Russia should provide an enduring health care system, decrease the consumption of alcohol, cigarettes and drugs, and stop abortion.

Facebook, The Way Of The Future

In the past, people used to live in tribes or groups to be connected to each other. Connection is very important in every period of the time. In these days people with all the world's new technology don’t need to live in tribes or groups anymore, because the technology has made conation easy in any place in the world. Facebook is a new way of connection that the advanced technology provided to us. It is a very popular website, which people from all over the world use in order to connect with each other. Facebook is a very useful website because of three things. First, it is one of the best ways for friends' connection. Second, it is a very helpful website for college’s students. Finally, it is a practical website for business.

Facebook is a very good way for friends' connection. First, by it users can find their old friend whom they lost connection with them. For example, in it a person can find some friends who he or she had studied with in elementary school, middle school, high school or college. Second, it is one of the cheapest ways that a person can keep in touch with his or her friends by, even if he or he is far away from them. For example, by it I can contact my friends and their new friends In Saudi Arabia while I am studying here in America, and I pay nothing. Third, by it a person can know about his entire Friends’ activities and participate with them if they are interested in that. Finally, by it a person can know more or new information about his or her friends that could make him or make her understand them better.

Facebook is a beneficial website for students. First, students can know the answer of the hard questions in certain classes by a certain group that they make in it. For example, if some students were attending a chemistry class and the teacher of this class gave them 10 questions as homework, a student who didn't know the answer of a question or more could post the question or the questions in Facebook and ask if anyone knew how to do it or them and hopefully he would get the answer or answers. Second, students who are about to graduate from high schools can make groups or inter groups in it, in older to collect information about universities from their future classmates. Finally, students who attend classes with a certain professor can exchange their notes by it or by their group in it. For example, by it an absent student could get other students’ notes and hopefully would understand the lecture that he or she missed.

Facebook is a good website for business. First, because of its huge number of participators companies can advertise their products on it. "Facebook has hit the 175,000,000 active user mark, just 5 weeks after it hit 150 million users in January. At this rate, Facebook has been growing by well over 600,000 users per day over the last several weeks" (Inside Facebook, 2009, p. 1-1). Second, managers and workers in the same company can make close relations by it and know more about each other by it. Everybody knows that the good relationship between manager and his workers make workers work more effectively. Third, by it companies can stay in touch with their ex-employees and get benefits from their experiences. Finally, companies can get feedback from their consumers if they build good relationships with them in it.

Facebook is a great website for Friends’ connection, a useful website for students, and a practical website for business. The revolution of connection makes the connection between people easier and cheaper. In these days a person can connect and make relationships with people even if he or she hasn’t met in regular life. Also, the connections in these days sometimes cost no money because of Internet. People should use the new ways of connection wisely and effectively. They should make them an enduring land for the next generations.

Overpopulation in India

In the article, “overpopulated India,” by Wahidah, she mentions that India will become the most populated country in the world if it keeps its current population growth rate. Therefore, Wahidah suggests three solutions that India should do in order to cope with its overpopulation and control it. It should increase awareness of the public and of women, it should control the population in several ways, Media can play one of the most important roles in education the public. She thinks that the media such as movies, magazines, newspapers, television, conferences, books, lectures and radio can make the people aware. Also, she thinks that family planning services and programs should be improved to solve the overpopulation problems. Finally, government can play the most important role in the birth control process and in solving the overpopulation problems.

I don’t agree with Wahidah, because she thinks that India is an ordinary country. I feel that she forgets that India is a very poor country, and more than half of its population lives in rural areas. Also, most of them are illiterate. Therefore, the media can not play a strong role to decrease the overpopulation in India. Furthermore, I don’t think that family planning services and programs can do them their work effectively, because it is hard for them to reach some rural areas with many people in India. Also, the government can not reach them, because they are located in Indian mountains. I think that India should keep its population growth rate, because that could help it with growth economy, and it needs high population, especially in agriculture.
