Cinema or Theatre?

Outline:

• tickets
• clothing
• mood
• live playing/recorded movie

 In general, cinema tickets are cheaper. There are cases when people get cheap theatre tickets, but it is usually known to be more expensive. In cinemas every ticket is in the same price category, if people want to sit at the top they will pay the same amount as the one who only could get a ticket for a bottom seat. In theatres the price depends on how good is the seat. At the back it will be really cheap, sometimes cheaper than a cinema ticket. One more advantage of cinemas that nobody cares about clothing, an everyday wear is perfect for going to the cinema and watching a film. In theatres nice clothing is an expectation. But the these two forms of entertainment have one big main difference, the mood. While in the cinema most people just watch the film and go home, theatres have energy, they go there to charge up a little bit. It is live played in front of the watcher and because of this every play can be different, every actor can play differently. It is always exciting to see the same play over and over again and realising new differencies. A movie will always be the same.

Films and books

        Both films and books have good effects on people and help to develop their skills. One of these similarities is that learning a language is easier, if you use books or films. Nowadays, thanks to technology, almost every film can be watched online in different languages; according to what language people want to learn or listen to. There are also subtitles to films which make them much easier to understand. The same experienced with books; books, which are known worldwide, can be found almost in every language. Of course, there are different dictionaries, which also help. Moreover, developing imagination and thoughts are not negligible. Science-fiction films show people places, effects and lands which can be never seen in reality. In addition, real life crime movies/crime series, for example CSI, make people think. The same thing happens by reading books; the reader cannot see what is told in a novel, people have to use their own imagination. Communication skills and vocabulary are also developed by movies and reading. In films there are different kinds of dialogues and debates from different stages of society. The same happens with the books; people can read dialogues from dramas like Romeo and Juliet, and learn archaic words from poems. In conclusion, films and books have also many advantages, and it can be a great benefit and pleasure if people spend time with reading or watching movies in order to develop themselves.

Jeans vs. Sweatpants (with Áron Hoffmann)

Jeans vs. sweatpants

Sweatpants are probably the most comfortable pants ever, but if it comes to fashion, well they are probably not the best choice one can make. They were originally created for athletes and coaches, so they would have something comfortable to wear when training, but now most people own at least a pair of them, they have become the most popular home wear over the years. The other type of trousers I want to talk about is jeans. They are probably the most commonly worn type of pants nowadays. They look fancy and at the same time they are kind of comfortable, although they are not nearly as comfy as sweatpants. They were originally made for miners and cowboys and later they became a popular wear for everyone. In summary, they are both popular, but for differe reasons.

Car vs. public transport

Traveling with car or with public transport

Have you ever thought about what means of transport should you choose? Every people use vehicles for transportation. Among many means of transportation, the most common ones are the buses and peoples’ private cars. Many people choose them because of their different aspects of thinking. From a general overview, these aspects are categorized into comfortableness, expensiveness and the effects tot he environment etc. Both ways of transportation has their pros and contras. These properties need to be examined in detail to be able to evaluate the most appropriate means of transportation. One of the areas that one should investigate is the comfortableness of the vehicles. People, of course, would like to use their own cars. Because, they are more comfortable than the public transportation vehicles. People feel more comfortable because there are not any people apart from themselves. They can listen to the radio according to their wish. They do not worry about whether they are standing or sitting. They can make telephone calls in their own cars. They don’t have to wait or catch the buses. When we consider this situation from this aspect, private cars are chosen for transportation. The second point we should compare is the expensiveness. Contrary to comfortableness, when we consider the expensiveness aspect, we conclude that public transportation should be chosen. In as much as, the buses hold and transport more passengers in comparison to the private cars. Thanks to their transportation capacity, energy saving and cheap cost of transportation would be possible with buses and public vehicles. Therefore, staff and personnel transport services and student transport services are performed through these vehicles. Finally, the last comparison point we should mention would be the speed and the traveling time. People got used to that cars are faster than any public transports but that is not true in every case. For instance, in rush hours buses can easily get through the traffic because there are lanes for buses in the motorway as well as in cities, while cars get stuck in the traffic jam. Furthermore, this type of vehicle is delivering ten times more people than a car, so it is more environmentally friendly than cars.As a conclusion, we can say that both kinds of means of transport has its advantages and disadvantages the decision always depends on what is good for the passenger.

Drinking coffee or tea

If you need some caffeine after awekening both of them can be a good choice. But which one is better for the health: having a coffee or having a tea in the mornings? There are a lot of researches about their effects, they have different beneficent impacts on the health. Both of them have got advantages and disadvantages as well.

First of all, tea contains less quantity of caffeine than coffee. Its anapeltic effect is the same with the effect of coffee, so there is not a big difference between them from this viewpoint.

Secondly, three cups of tea a day has antiphlogistic impact on human organism. Having a cup of tea regularly helps to prevent stroke and cardiac disease. Moreover, it has a beneficent effect on the circulatory system and memory, because it prevents the old-age forgetfulness. It has some negativ effects. For instance, it discolors teeth so the teeth should be washed after tea or drink a glass of water. From this point of view coffee would be the better choice, because it does not discolor the teeth so much. Tea includes antioxidant, which makes difficult the absorption of iron from plants, so it is recommended to eat vegetables with vitamin C in it.

However, having two or three cups of coffee a day can have beneficent impacts on the human body. It can help to prevent diabetes and cancer. There are a lot of researches about that if we have the proper quantity of caffeine, it can be avoidable memorial problems and Alzheimer-disease.

From an other aspect, it can be found a difference the quality of sleeping after having a tea or a coffee. Maybe it is the biggest difference between them. Those people, who drink coffee, can fall asleep harder. While ”tea-drinkers” can sleep better, tea helps to sleep well at the end of the day, it can be explained by the quantity of the caffeine. Maybe it is better choice from this aspect.

They can be a medicine for the soul. Tea soothes the nerves and it reduces the chance of depression. ”Coffee-drinkers” often feel nervous, but on a long term it has a good effect on the mental health and it also can reduce the chance of depression. 

All in all, some cups of analeptic drink can have great impacts on the health. Either having a coffee or a tea can be a good choice, if you pay enough attention for the quantity.

Books or films?

Books or films?

     It is very debatable that books or films are better but both of them have a lot of advantages and disadvantages.

      Books have a lot more imaginaries in them than movies have. People just read the words and they can see the whole World in their mind. Everyone who read the same book, imagine locations, the protagonists, and the conversations completely diffently. For instant they can change the main characters to themselves and live their own life in the books. 

    On the other hand, movies can be even more dramatic. If we look at the actor's faces while they are crying or laughing the emotion impact on us are likely to be stronger so it is possible that we start to cry or laugh as well. Watching moovies can be a good programme with our friends, but read a book is a "one person" activity.

    Sometimes it is easier to watch a moovie than read a book. There are several books that have been made into movies. This is especially helpful for people who have difficulties in reading or they are lazy, as watching the moovie as well as reading the book can enhance experience.

    Books and moovies both have equal importance for the man of 21st. century. In our running World,books and moovies provide us the opportunity to relax a little bit and break away from our problems.
