Space Tourism

 Space Tourism

Space tourism is a controversial topic that has gained attention over the years. It is considered as a positive phenomenon by some people, while others have an opposite view for some reasons. 

To begin with, space tourism has many advantages. It offers the opportunity to discover outer space. Besides, it is an original and a special adventure. So, no one can deny the fact that this emerging industry has changed lives. However, it has tremendous limitations.

First, space tourism is a waste of money. Instead of throwing money away, it could be spent on developing countries to reduce poverty. Second, such space adventures are reserved for wealthy people, whereas millions of individuals would be deprived of those costly flights. In fact, it is illogical to spend money on luxurious flights while the basic needs are ignored or unfulfilled. Add to this, studies have proved that space tourism damages the ozone layer and affects the whole environment. 

As a conclusion, I believe that it is really selfish and irresponsible to waste billions of dollars on space trips while millions of people suffer from poverty and diseases.

A Radio Conversation about Family Problems

 

Radio Presenter (Maha): Hello ladies and gentlemen, welcome to our radio programme "Family Problems." Today, Mrs Clara wants to share her family problems with us. The floor is yours Clara!

Clara (Fedia): Hello everybody! Thanks for giving me the opportunity to talk. I am really exhausted. They want me to do all the home chores. My children are noisy and messy. My husband is lazy and demanding.

Radio Presenter (Maha): Well, that might be true, but we can find a solution, can't we?

 Listener 1 (Kalthoum): Could I stop you here for a moment? It is your responsibility to assign family roles and teach your children how to be organized. You should have controlled everything since the beginning and remember, as the proverb says, that "Man is the head of the family and woman is the neck that turns the head." Clara! you should guide your family and together, I mean you and your husband, you can teach your kids the great value of life.

Clara (Fedia): I respect your viewpoint, but my life is totally unbalanced! I mean that I do everything like working, cooking, cleaning, gardening, etc. Apart from this, my children get in my hair and make me very angry. 

Listener 2 (Wala): I can understand how you feel Clara. It is not easy at all to do everything by yourself. I advise you to keep calm and explain this misconduct to your partner, maybe he will give you a hand and the kids will follow his steps. Give it a try my dear!

Listener 1 (Kalthoum): Good idea Wala! I hope it helps Clara.

Radio Presenter (Maha): Thank you all and I hope that you can find a solution to your problem as soon as possible. Well, this is the end of our programme, see you next week and stay safe. Goodbye.
