Chewing gum is usually associated with some thoughtless automatic process. Television has recently become like a chewing gum too. For many years it has been considered the main source of information. But in recent years it has turned out in some endless entertainment full of silly commercials and stupid soap operas. Very often people can’t tell one film from another, or one TV show from another because they are so much alike. For some people watching TV turned into the constant switching of the channels. They fail to find what they like so they prefer to watch a little bit of everything which leads to total absence of any integral or useful information. It is very hard to get a full picture of a film when every five minutes it is interrupted by commercials. Permanent blinking of bright colours and a rapid change of images make people lose the sense of what is shown. In the end they just passively watch the programmes as if they were chewing a gum. And when a programme becomes too boring, they just switch to another channel. And the next day people just take a new fresh chewing gum and chew it till it becomes tasteless and then they spit it out ruthlessly. Don’t you think watching TV is the same?

For many years mankind has been wondering whether there is life on other planets and what these planets are. A huge amounts of money are spent on this sphere whereas some people claim that our native planet need urgent help and it would be better to spend money here.
Talking about myself, i am not keen on scientific topic and do not admit the idea of investing billions in the space exploration. I think we had better spent them to solve problems of the contemporary world such as hunger, poverty, ecological issues.
It was said that we should learn more about space due to the danger it can bring to us, for example, a meteorite. From this point of view i agree, we should develop this branch of science but it's unnecessary to make it a problem number 1.
In my opinion, helping children in Africa is more important than building rockets, isn't it? We should help our planet now and here or it will be late to save the earth.
