i always wanted to have an interesting life: make a lot of friends, do some travelling before i settled down, have a few hobbies, spend a bit of time volunteering and not take on any job that would make me change my lifestyle. i never imagined i would end up with a high-powered job of a marketing manager. one day, i ran into an old high school friend of mine with whom i lost touch after graduation. he said, “how about joining our firm? we have a vacancy in our marketing department. i bet you’ll be a good fit. you just click with people, you can get on well with anyone.” i usually don’t rush into things. i thought, “this might be a good idea but i must think it over first.” however, suddenly i heard myself say, “i’ve never considered a career in marketing before, but sure, i’m in! ” what happened after was a ten-year long nightmare. i became a workaholic. i couldn’t imagine my life without working for 15 hours a day. i was expected to work on weekends, too. my duties were very varied: i was responsible for business analysis, strategic communication, advertising and promotion campaigns. i led a team of twenty people and managed multi-million dollar budgets. i was not allowed to go on vacations longer than two days. there was a time when i had a terrible cold - a sore throat, a runny nose, a cough and a headache - and i still was called into the office because of an important meeting. in the end, i felt completely burned out. the final straw was when a man i had a crush on asked me out and i realized that because of my busy schedule i could only go out with him in half a year’s time! so i took a radical step and quit. i am a self-employed web designer now. i should say it is not easy on my own, but i definitely don’t have to work myself to death!
Many people want to save the Earth, but they don`t know how to do it. They don`t know how to protect wild animals, plants, and how to keep water clean and air fresh. Water is very important in the life of people. There is a lot of water on our planet. It is in rivers, oceans, lakes and seas.
At the same time there is a little water on the planet. In many lakes and rivers the water is very dirty. Sometimes people can`t swim in seas, rivers and lakes because water is dirty. In many places water is not able to drink and it is dangerous to use it when you cook. Even fish die in such water.
Some people`s activities do a lot of harm to the forests. People cut down trees to build farms, homes and roads. Many animals and plants lose their homes. Many of them die. This is bad for the air of the Earth too. Modern plants and factories send a lot of smoke in the atmosphere. This is very bad, because nowadays it`s difficult to breathe in big cities.
So, the problem now is to protect life on the Earth, and to save our planet for the future. I believe that we must think about our planet and we mustn`t cut down trees, dump to the rivers. Then in the future our world will be beautiful.
Тем не менее, в 1970-х гг. Винсент Тереза, бывший член мафии, заявил в своей автобиографии, что Сакко и Ванцетти не были вовлечены в убийства в Саут-Брейнтри. Он сказал, что действительно виновными сторонами были члены банды итальяно-американских преступников. Этот случай сильно повлиял на многих художников. Американский композитор Марк Блицштейн работал над своей наиболее значимой оперой «Сакко и Ванцетти» на момент своей смерти. Первый крупный успех художника Бена Шана состоялся с его 23 сатирическими картинами по мотивам судебного процесса и казни Сакко и Ванцетти, которые были выставлены в Нью-Йорке в 1933 году, и они принесли ему мгновенную известность.
