The effect of modern technology on our everyday life In the nowadays world, we are living in the era of advanced technology. Almost every activity that we do in our daily life is somehow connected with technology usage. It plays a major role not only in our lives, but also helped in development of various industries, changed education, entertainment. We can not measure this process and it`s impact on society, but one thing we can say for sure – technology has become part of pupils lives. There are so many advantages connected with technology and how it affected our everyday life. To start with, development of mobile technology, computers and internet made life easier. We can find information in sites like Google in a couple of minutes instead of looking for required information in books for hours. In the older times, writing a letter, sending and bringing to a required person took minimum a month; now this proce...
Mongoolia energiamajnduse iseloomustus Energiavarade iseloomustus Mongoolia kõige enam levinud ja ühtlasi kõige olulisem energiavara on kivisüsi, millel riigi majandus suuresti ka põhineb. Suured söemaardlad (joonis 1) asuvad riigi põhja- ja keskosas: pealinna Ulaanbaatari lähistel ja Darhani linna ümbruses, samuti ka täiesti lääneservas. Nüüdseks on avastud ja kasutusele võetud teisigi kivisöe leiukohti Mongoolia lõunapiiri läheduses- Gobi kõrbes. Mongoolias leidub mingil määral ka naftat, kuid see pole majanduslikult nii tähtis kui süsi. Naftat kaevandatakse riigi idaosas ja Gobi kõrbes. Traditsiooniliselt kasutatakse seal kivisüsi, nafta leiukohad on suhteliselt hiljuti avastatud ning seetõttu on see Mongoolia jaoks uus energiatootmise valdkond. Kivisüsi tootmiselt on riik maailmas 22. kohal, nafta tootmiselt on Mongoolia 89. riik maailmas. Mongoolia majandus on kivisöepõhine. Selle tootmise eesmärk on peamiselt oma rahva ja tööstuse...

southern Florida, polar in Alaska, semiarid in the Great Plains west of the 100 th meridian, Mediterranean in coastal California and arid in the Great Basins. Its comparatively generous climate contributed (in part) to the country's rise as a world power, with infrequent severe drought in the major agricultural regions, a general lack of widespread flooding, and a mainly temperate climate that receives adequate precipitation. 6. Animals, plants, agriculture Animals The moose ranges throughout the northern US. In the eastern forests live elks, black bears, deer, foxes, raccoons, skunks and squirrels. Along the coast of the Gulf of Mexico live large and more colorful birds such as pelicans and flamingos. Alligators can also be found there. Bison (buffalo) exists now only in protected areas. In the western areas live elk, deer, bighorn sheep, mountain goats and a small number of brown bears. The Kodiak bear, the largest carnivore found in North
Victoria. Territories and provinces Canada consists of 3 territories and 10 provinces. Very few people live in the territories, but it has more power on deciding important questions. Newest territoy is Nunawut, it became a territory in 1999. It was created from the eastern part od North- West territories. Quebec and Ontario are the biggest provinces. In the central part of Canada there are prairies and agriculture is very common. Alberta is rich in natural resources such as oil and natural gas. In Quebec and Ontario are many manufactories and industries. In the west there is maritime climate and so they fish and ship there. Toronto is the biggest city in Canada, with a population of 5,1 million people. It is followed by Montreal with 3,9, Vancouver, Ottawa (which is the capital of Canada) 800 000 and Quebec with 700 000. Government

Calgary is the largest Canadian metropolitan area between Toronto and Vancouver. Calgary is well-known as a destination for winter sports and ecotourism with a number of major mountain resorts near the city and metropolitan area. Economic activity in Calgary is mostly centred on the petroleum industry; however, agriculture, tourism, and high-tech industries also contribute to the city's economic growth. In 1988, Calgary became the first Canadian city to host the Olympic Winter Games. Winnipeg Winnipeg is the capital and largest city of Manitoba, Canada.It's population is 740 000 people.

Good afternoon. My name is Siiri Paurson. And I will be speaking today about OVERFISHING. I will be speaking for about 10 minutes. I’ll be pleased to answer any questions you may have at the end of the presentation. INTRODUCTION: What is overfishing? What is causing overfishing? Why is overfishing a problem? Fishing down the food web. What can we do to help? WHAT IS OVERFISHING?: Overfishing can be defined in a number of ways. However, everything comes down to one simple point: Catching too much fish for the system to support leads to an overall degradation (degrödašon) to the system. Overfishing is a non-sustainable use of the oceans. WHAT IS CAUSING OVERFISHING?: Worldwide, fishing fleets are two to three times as large as needed to take present day catches of fish and other marine species (spiišis) and as what our oceans can sustainably support. On a global scale we have enough fishing capacity (cäpaseti) to cover at least four Earth...

The Australian economy is dominated by its services sector, yet it is the agricultural and mining sectors that account for 65% of its exports. Rich in natural resources, Australia is a major exporter of agricultural products, particularly grains and wool, and minerals, including various metals, coal, and natural gas. A downturn in world commodity prices can thus have a large impact on the economy. Agriculture Agriculture in Australia is a major industry, 402 000 people are employed in agriculture and agriculture related services. Until the late 1950s agriculture accounted for up to 80% of Australia's export earnings. That percentage has fallen with diversification of the economy. Most of the farmland in Australia is pasture for raising cattle and sheep. Farmland covers about 65 per cent of Australia. However, most of this land is dry grazing land. Crops are grown on only about 5 per cent of the farmland
The oldest street is Pikk Jalg. Modern industrial development which began in the second half of the 19th century was oriented toward the Russian market. Large textile mills were set up in Narva and electric motor productions, plants and shipyards in Tallinn. Today Narva provides the most Estonian's electricity. Estonian porst, ice-free most of the winter, have always handled much of Russia's trade with western Europe. Deep sea fihing fleets operate from Tallinn and Pärnu. Estonian agriculture mus also find its place in the European aconomy. Agricultural researchers have also detarnimated the best breeds of pigs, sheep and horses suited to Estonian conditions. Pre-War was known in Europe as a potato exporting country. At the moment Estonians Farmers export daily products and timber. Estonia have always had the greatest respect for education.

An OPTIMISTIC approach (Alternative theory) Ester Boserup (1965) suggested that an increase in population would stimulate technologists to increase food production. It followed that a rise in population will increase demand for food and therefore act as an incentive to modify technology to produce more food. In other words, “Necessity is the mother of invention” . As population increases agriculture moves into higher stages of intensity with new methods. An OPTIMISTIC approach Followers of Boserup argue that food production is much more optimistic than that of a Malthusian, as she claims that food supplies will stay ahead of population growth. Innovations such as the ‘Green Revolution’ introduced HYVs to LEDCs who witnessed increased yields from these processes allowing more people to be fed. Limitations of Boserups theory
down by the fireplace and Catherine serves her special and at least locally very famous tea the exact recipe is a well-kept secret, of course. Was working in a farm something you planned already long ago? Marc: No, not really. In high school I actually planned to become a chemical engineer. It's funny how haphazard things in life change and affect so many other things. Practical chemistry lead me first to household chemicals, then I started studying fertilizers and discovered the charms of agriculture. As I've grown up in a big city, cows and other farm animals have always symbolised a better world, something more perfect but less accessible to me. Yes, especially cows, I've always loved them. So a few years after university it was clear to me that I want to work with cows. Catherine: To me the profession of a milkmaid was no accident. Unlike Marc, I grew up in the country. We had many animals and my mother taught me to take care of them already when I was a little girl
Further to the south the climate gets warmer, with warmer winters and hotter summers. The south western part of the country is the driest and the hottest. Death Valley is also located there. The second highest temperature on earth 55.5C was recorded in the valley. The place got its name because of gold seekers. Hoping to find a shorter way to gold fields, many of them died crossing the valley during the 1849 Gold Rush. 6 Economy, Agriculture The United States is a country of highly developed economy. Most American industry is located in the eastern and Midwestern parts, around the Great Lakes and also on the Pacific coast. The U. S. engineering products are known all over the world the country produces planes, rockets, spaceships, cars, agricultural machinery, ships etc. Electronics has become a major industry. The role of service and leisure industries has also grown. Canned fish and timber are the chief products of the
plants into improved food crops through artificial selection and hybridization. Bioengineering is the science upon which all biotechnological applications are based. With the development of new approaches and modern techniques, traditional biotechnology industries are also acquiring new horizons enabling them to improve the quality of their products and increase the productivity of their systems. Before 1971, the term, biotechnology, was primarily used in the food processing and agriculture industries. Since the 1970s, it began to be used by the Western scientific establishment to refer to laboratory-based techniques being developed in biological research, such as recombinant DNA or tissue culture-based processes, or horizontal gene transfer in living plants, using vectors such as the Agrobacterium bacteria to transfer DNA into a host organism. In fact, the term should be used in a much broader sense to describe the whole range of methods, both ancient and modern, used
Economy is primarily based on light industry and the service sector i.e. tourism, banking, trade, textile and sewing industries give work to many people. Paper and timber industries also employ many workers. Paper was first produced in Estonia in 1677 and it has retained its important role. Estonian furniture industry has also a long tradition. The electronics industry is one of the most promising branches in Estonia. One tenth of the population receives income from agriculture, fishery and forestry. Food industry is largely based on local agriculture. The production of meat and milk products is the main branch. In the countryside people breed dairy cattle, raise pigs and grow grain, potatoes and vegetables. The main grain crops are rye, oats, barley, wheat, potatoes, fodder crops. Many farms have specialized in vegetable growing. Strawberries are also widely grown and there are many apple orchards in Estonia

suppliers of wheat, canola and other grains. Canada is also one of the world's most important suppliers of agricultural products, with the Canadian Prairies one of the most important suppliers of wheat, canola and other grainsCanada is the world's largest producer of zinc and uranium and a world leader in many other natural resources such as gold, nickel, aluminium, and lead; many towns in the northern part of the country, where agriculture is difficult, exist because of a nearby mine or source of timber. Canada also has a sizeable manufacturing sector centered in southern Ontario and Quebec, with automobiles and aeronautics representing particularly important industries. Besides natural resources, fishing and hunting are very popular hobbies there, as many people earn their living by doing these things. System of government and politics

there are no physical barriers to trade and that made the transport of goods less difficult than in other nations. The south-eastern part of England is the most densely populated region. It is the main centre of printing, clothes and food industry. In that region lie the two biggest airports - Heathrow and Gatwick. The largest town is London, which is an important financial and cultural centre. East Anglia is extremely flat and is dominated by agriculture. They grow mainly fruit, vegetables and soft berries. East Anglia is famous for its large wheat fields. They grow wheat, potatoes and other sorts of vegetables there. There is not very much heavy industry in that region. The main branches of industry are connected with agriculture food industry. Agricultural machinery is produced there. 8 Population and Ethnicity
Empire to bring Christianity to the people. The Romans finally abandoned Britain in AD 410 and a long period of invasions by Nordic peoples started. The Angles, Saxons and Jutes began to settle from the sixth to the eighth centuries, and the Angles gave England its name. These invaders introduced a new culture to Britain, and even today British customs and habits are described as 'Anglo-Saxon'. Anglo-Saxon England was one of the most civilised countries in Europe, with organised systems of agriculture and trade. The Vikings ca me from Scandinavia in the tenth eentury; they settled in the north and made the town of York the capital of their kingdom. The last successful invasion of Britain was in 1066, which is an important date in history books in British schools. Duke William of Normandy (William the Conqueror) defeated the English at the Battle of Hastings, and the Normans and the French settled in Britain over the next three centuries

These areas are home to Canada's Native American population, many of whom continue to follow traditional lifestyles based on hunting and fishing. Mining is the principal industry and there has been steady growth in diamond mining and finishing. Tourism also provides a substantial part of the region's economy. Each of the nation's main economic sectors is highly developed. Although the agricultural sector is small, it takes advantage of the nation's generous natural resources. Increasingly, agriculture and fishing are concentrated in certain geographic regions of the country, mainly the west and southeast. The United States is the main market for all Canadian agricultural exports. In addition, the United States is the main destination for most of Canada's timber exports. Canada is also a major supplier of energy resources, including electricity and petroleum, to the United States. Canada, Kärt Kalvet 8a
HISTORY PRECOLONIAL AMERICA Before the first Europen settlers came, various groups of interrelated cultures lived there. Such as the Tingits, the Nootka, the Yurok and many more. Indigenous people mostly fished, because there vas a vast stock of fish. But they also relied upon agriculture, hunting and trapping. They built stable villages, and lived either in birchcovered wigwams or in rectangular longhouses. Later the indigenous people were called indians, by Christopher Columbus who thought that he had reached to India. COLONIAL AMERICA As far as people know were the Vikings first European settlers to visit America. but in 1492, an Italian sailor called Christopher Columbus reached southern America when he was looking for a sea route from Europe to India.

Some typical animals are brown bears, foxes, geese, lynxes and moose. Prairies are temperate grasslands which consist of grass plains that are hot in summer and cold in winter. Prairies are made by fires. The soil is rich and precipitation is medium and because of that prairies are used for agriculture. Common agriculture plants are oats, rye, barley and wheat. The area has very few trees or shrubs so it's very windy. Some typical animals that live there are: bobcats, antelopes, snakes, rodents, rabbits, badgers and bisons. Prairies are also called the "Bread-basket of Canada". The Deciduous Forests are cool and rainy areas. There are four distinct seasons. Annual precipitation is 0.5-1.5 meters. The summer average is 24-30'C. There are such plants as: white

total product of almost $8 trillion a year. Its people have the highest standard of living of any large country in the world; only a few small countries have the higher standards of living. Its economy is still growing, but several other important countries are growing even faster at the present time. There is a widespread belief, both in America and in other countries, that the United States is in economic decline. Agriculture is very wide-spread, above all in the prairie regions, where wheat and other grain crops are grown. Cotton is grown in the Mississippi valley, tobacco in Maryland and Virginia. California is famous for its fruit, and the west for its cattle-farming. Poultry farming is highly developed in the countryside near all big cities. The United States is rich in various metals and minerals. It holds first place in the capitalist world. The Great Lakes and the rivers, especially the

avalikkuse suure tähelepanu ning nende ohvritele on tänu nüüdisaegsele infrastruktuurile võimalik osutada kiiret ja tõhusat abi. Ent palju tõsisem probleem on inimeste aastaid kestnud alatoitumus, mis kuulub paljude arengumaade suure rahvastikuosa elulaadi juurde. Kuigi alatoitumuse ja nälja vahel tehakse vahet, puudub spetsialistidelgi üksmeelne arusaam sellest, mis eristab esimest teisest. Brasiilia õpetlasest endine ÜRO Toitlus- ja Põllumajandusorganisatsiooni (U.N. Food and Agriculture Organization, FAO) Täitevkomitee esimees J. de Castro käsitleb alatoitumust nälja erilise varjatud avaldumisvormina, mille hulka ta arvas kõik kalori-, valgu-, vitamiini- ja mineraalivaeguse juhtumid. Tegemaks kindlaks nälja ja alatoitumuse ulatust, peab teadma inimeste energeetiliste vajaduste norme. Need sõltuvad inimese east, soost, kehakaalust, kasvust, füüsilisest aktiivsusest ja elukeskkonna klimaatilistest tingimustest. FAO ja Ülemaailmse

Architecture Early Anglo-Saxon buildings in Britain were generally simple, constructed mainly using timber with thatch for roofing. The Anglo-Saxons built small towns near their centres of agriculture. In each town, a main hall was in the centre. The architectural character of Anglo- Saxon ecclesiastical buildings range from Coptic influenced architecture in the early period; basilica influenced Romanesque architecture; and in the later Anglo-Saxon period, an architecture characterised by pilaster-strips, blank arcading, baluster shafts and triangular headed openings. There are few remains of Anglo-Saxon architecture, with no secular work remaining above ground. All surviving churches, except one timber church, are built of stone or brick and in some cases show evidence of re-used Roman work. Art Anglo-Saxon art is mainly known today through illuminated manuscripts. Although they are the most well known to have survived. Perhaps the bes...

harder to stay on the market because of the high competition. Estonia wants to be modern and successful very fast but it should also take into account rescources what are in front of us. Developing the e-services and networks are good while being ahead in the future but Estonia should not put all of its focus into it. More and more people are moving to cities looking for a fancier job and as a result of this workforce in countrysides decreases. In addition, people tend to lose interest in agriculture. Estonia has a lot of rural land and there is an opportunity to start using it more effectively, otherwise life in the countrysides will end. Due not focusing so much on the agricultural sector, the export compared to the import is smaller. Estonia’s biggest export outputs are wood, paper and food products, so there exists good potential to invest in domestic products and organic production which would ensure general revenue, more local jobs and enjoyable homemade products
