Stadiums, circuits, pitches, courses, and other places where are sports and games exhibited are full of people. And it doesn’t mean that there are so many sportsmen. These people are called spectators. They like to watch other people doing sports. You can say that it is possible to watch it on TV too. But they don’t like it. They are interested in live sports. There are a huge number of spectators and it is very popular. You needn’t to be educated, you needn’t know
History The tradition of voluntary work and charitable associations within the territory of today’s Czech Republic dates far back into history. Unfortunately, this long tradition was abruptly interrupted during the period of communist regime, when voluntary associations and activities were seen as a potential danger of resistance against the leading party. That was the reason why the property of socially aware foundations was confiscated by the state and, in fact, the whole principle of
The simple majority system of voting is used in parliamentary elections in Britain. This means that the candidate with the largest number of votes in each constituency is elected, although he or she may not necessarily have received more than half the votes cast.
It is thought that this system favours two-party competition, particularly when the parties' support is concentrated geographically. It does not favour parties whose support is spread across constituencies, as they tend to accumulate relatively small numbers of votes

I would like to write something about this great book which is writen by Sir Walter Scott. It`s a historical novel but heroes, time and place are different. Story is fit in Scotland of 17 th century. The novel describes a story of Lord Edgar Ravenswood, the last of the old Scottisch origin, and Asthon`s Family. It`s story about tragic love prohibited by land estate cases and imperious Madam Asthon.
On this book I like that it sends out rays of strong emotional feelings. I like these heroes who
Washington, D.C. is the capital of the United States of America. It was built on a ten-mile-square (16 square km) territory ceded to the federal government by the two surrounding states, Maryland and Virginia.

Washington, D.C. was named after the first American President, George Washington. The abbreviation ‘D.C.’ stands for ‘District of Columbia’. The capital is
We got the earth as a present and what we did? We are destroying it. We mine as any resources as we can and what we returned? Nothing. Some people say:“ It’s in name of progress, and in near future we will recycle everything, and everything will be alright.” But this opinion is wrong. For what is the progress? In last 200 years died many more people than everywhen. Yes, we will be able to recycle everything, and we can do it today but all cost too much money. Money, they are the thing which moves with our world everything can be bought: p
Rainforests Before 1900, rainforests covered 14% of the world´s surface (povrch). Today they cover 7%. The reason for this is simple. They have been cut down to provide: land, paper, wood, medicines, minerals and fuel. But it isn´t only trees which are disappearing. Every rainforest also contains millions of animals, insects and flowers. These are destroyed, too. If man continues to cut down rainforests, more than one million species (druhy) of plants and animals will become extinct (vymřít) by the year 2030. - the green solut

To understand the WWW one must first grasp the concept of a unified, collective faction. Thus to understand we must first grasp what the Internet and cyberspace actually are....

I think that it is not rule that the men earn more money as women or women more as men. In some job can they earn the same salary. So,for example: one women and one man are teachers. When the women is better than man, she earn more as man and conversely.
When they are in one level they earn the same salary. But when they work in factory, I think ,that the man earn more money, because he is stronger as women. Women are better in sewing a dress so they earn more money. But in statistics is that the men earn more money
