Laevandus ehk veetransport Laevandus on vanimaid transpordiliike, mis jaguneb merelaevanduseks ja siseveekogude laevanduseks. Kaubavedu merel hõlmab eri vorme, näiteks liinilaevandust ja tramplaevandust. Tramplaevandus on merevedude teostamine prahilaevadega ja liinilaevandus on kaupade merevedude korraldusviis kindlal marsruudil ning kindla sõidugraafiku alusel kaupu vedavate laevadega ehk liinilaevadega Veetransport muutub ebapraktiliseks kui transporditakse kiiresti riknevaid kaupu. Selle eeliseks on, et on võimalik transportida väikse kuluga suuri koormaid, näiteks sütt, kütust ja põllusaaduseid 90% maailma kaubavahetusest toimub tänu veetranspordile Maailma suurimaid laevad on konteinerlaevad ja tankerid. Tänapäeva konteinerlaevad on umbes 400m pikkused ja võivad pardale võtta 16 000 18 000 konteinerit. Suurimate tankerite kandevõime ulatub üle poole miljoni tonni.

Summary In this summary I will analyse three articles on the topic of whether it is justified and morally right to use drone warfare in the tribal areas of Pakistan and in Gaza. To begin, we do not know if the drones have done more harm or good in the tribal areas of Pakistan. Most of the information about drone attacks is coming from dubious Pakistan media, which we cannot seriously rely on. Hence, we cannot be sure if the persons killed by drones were innocent civilians or extremists. (Fair, 2013) One the one hand, using drones can be more discriminate, because they hover over the enemy for hours and wait for the perfect moment to attack, when there are no innocent people who might get injured. (Beautmont, 2012) On the other hand, it means that after watching and killing their targets, they continue hovering over villages, which affects people’s psychology. (Owen, 2013) New York Times journalist David Rohde, who was kidnapped by ...

Many words used today come from Old English. English from 1300 to 1500 is known as Middle English. It was influenced by French and Ltin. Modern Englis was greatly influenced by English used in London and changed a great deal until the end of the 18th century. The standart English today in known as BBC English. Spelling and pronaunciation seem to be the most difficult aspects of the English language for foreign students. English is very rich in synonyms. The huge vocabulary of the language is due to the free admission of words from other language. Old English had several inflections to show singular and plural, tense and person, but over the centuries words have been simpified. The loss of inflections had made English a very flexible lnguage.
