Science exhibition Cleanliness campaign You have been asked to give a speech on a cleanliness campaign. Good morning to the principal, teachers and friends. As you are all aware, our school has organized a cleanliness campaign. Today, I would like to talk about the campaign. The duration of the campaign is one month, from 1 to 30 April 2013. The objectives of the campaign are three-fold: to increase awareness among students of the need to keep the school and its surroundings clean, to improve students' knowledge of ways to reduce and dispose of waste, and to facilitate the development of positive student attitudes regarding waste. Cleaning is not exactly an activity that excites us but it has to be done. In fact, for many of us, cleaning seems like a mammoth task that is both time-consuming and tiring. However, if it is done on a regular basis, then it will not be overwhelming. it will also reduce the all-day marathon cleaning sessions. There are a number of things you can do to keep your class and surroundings clean. Have a schedule for all cleaning activities. Assign duties for everyone in the class. Go the extra mile to keep your school clean. Pick up rubbish lying on the ground whether you are on the field, eating at the cafeteria or climbing up the stairs. If everyone does this on a regular basis, then the whole school will always be litter-free. Clear rubbish bins when they are full. Do not wait until there are telltale signs like overflowing bins and a stale odor. Moreover, wipe window panes, fans and other areas where dust can accumulate. At the same time, use the rubbish bins that are provided and do not litter. Besides that, do not vandalize walls and school property. Most importantly, have a positive attitude and do not be lazy. Your school can be a sanctuary or a place of stress depending on how you clean and maintain it. If you keep doing these things on a regular basis, they will eventually become second nature to you. With that I have come to the end f my speech. Thank you My daily transportation What you want the robot to be? Robot with emotions and feelings -not just be a machine.

I picked this because it's where my friends use it frequently and I can get updated with not only my favourite shops, but also what my friends think are the hottest trends and shops out there Moreover, I also use it to read the news in bite-sized formats, following accounts like Bloomberg. However, recently with the addition of the shop icon to the lower bar of the app, it has changed the features drastically with the addition of the shop page. This causes slight annoyance as it is not what I'm looking out for when I am using the Instagram app, as I do not want to use Instagram to shop and buy directly on it Nonetheless there are very good product features that I really like.

I made a program some friends mine and we all visited the exhibition on the fourth day of the exhibition. We reached the gate of the expo center at 11 o'clock in the morning. We took the entry passes from the cabin and entered the expo center the guards on the gates search us through scanners. Various new kinds of scientific inventions were placed on the stalls with their introduction and with their manufacturing company name first, we visited all those stalls where the scientific invention was placed I collected a lot of information about many new kinds of scientific invention. A range of new monitors, keyboards, printers, scanners, and other catering devices was also placed on the stalls. We returned home in the evening and we remain busy talking about the science computer and its exhibition for the next several days after our visit to the exhibition. Recycling activities We need recycling for many reasons. But most importantly, it will help us to save our planet. Besides, recycling saves the earth by facilitating the reprocess of paper which will save millions of trees. Also, recycling saves a lot of energy because many things that we recycle can easily be converted into virgin materials. In addition, it saves a lot of resources too. Moreover, recycling reduces the burden of the environment. As we save energy the number of greenhouse gases and oxides are produced in less quantity. Because most of the toxic gases are produced by factories. In addition, recycling reduces the amount of waste, that takes years to decompose. Also, the recycled material can be sold. We use this recycled material for the manufacturing of many new products. So, ultimately recycling saves money. Recycling is very important for saving the Earth. Reusing, reducing, and recycling are the three important R’s that we must follow to help our planet be healthy. Recycling means to take the raw materials of objects and remake them into new objects which we can use again. Humans produce lots of waste every day, including paper, plastic, metal, and glass waste. This means used water bottles or soft drinks bottles and cans, waste paper, old jars and bottles which are made of glass, etc. These are some things which can be easily recycled in special recycling centers. Over there, these things are broken into small pieces, melted, then put back together as a brand new and usable object. We can also recycle many things at home by using them to make useful and fun craft projects. For example, you can make pencil stands out of metal cans or plastic bottles by cutting their top off. We should separate our garbage into dry and wet waste at home to make sure that the recycled objects go to the recycling centers. Recycling can be done in many other ways too, and we should always try to recycle as much as we can.
