We can"t call today"s world a safe world. Many dangers come from nature, I mean floods, earthquakes and so on. But people are also dangerous for each other.
Unfortunately, there are some people who don"t stop at anything to achieve their aims. They even think "the more victims the better". Our country was one of the first to have terrorist attacks. I mean the attacks in Moscow when two apartment houses were destroyed. There were acts of terrorism in all parts of the world at the end of the 20th century: in Japan, in England and in France.
But certainly the day that shook the world was the 11th of September 2001. Two American planes had been hijacked
by terrorists. The first plan slammed into the north tower of the World Trade Centre. The second crashed into the south tower of the World Trade Center. And soon the towers collapsed
. It was unbelievable, it was a nightmare. Words fail to describe what I felt when I watched TV: some people jumped out of the windows, others waved their handkerchiefs helplessly. Thousands of people were killed and hundreds of people injured
. There also were hundreds of victims in the planes themselves. The acts of mass murder as president Bush said, were intended
to frighten the nation. Certainly terrorist attacks shook the foundation of the highest building but they didn"t shake the foundation of America. Though as I think they made the country more aggressive. I mean the war in Iraq. There were many victims there too - peaceful women, old men and children.
Of course, it is necessary to find those who had arranged the terrorist acts in New York. They say that Osama bin Laden had been coordinating terrorist attacks against the USA. If it is true he should be punished. The acts of terrorism show that even strong countries having nuclear weapons are not protected against terrorism.
It seems to me that good people all over the world should join their forces and fight terrorism. Only together we can win. The government of all countries should have special funds for fighting terrorism. Certainly, the police in Western countries and our milicia should work better in order to prevent terrorist attacks. We had a very bad example in Moscow when armed terrorists entered the building where the performance Nord-Ost took place. Many peaceful people suffered. There were more than a hundred victims.
I wish our world were safer and we all felt more protected.
Today"s world is often called the computer world. We cannot imagine our life without computers. The first computers were developed during the Second World War. They were used to break the codes, used to send secret information.
Our world is really a small world. Modern transport facilities make it possible to reach any part of our planet within a few hours. People have to communicate and solve common problems in all the spheres of political life, economy and culture. Communication is an interaction of cultures. The knowledge of each other"s culture and traditions is very often important for successful business and political talks. We, Russians, very often surprise our foreign partners by our behavior and manners.
Unemployment is a very urgent problem today. Years ago when a man left school he learnt some job and did this job all his life. He could be sure that his job would be needed to his dying day. Nowadays he couldn"t be sure. Your work may look like a very good job at present, but it may not be needed in 10 years.
Drugs
Drug addiction is a big problem today. Even 5 years ago this problem did not exist in small towns. We read about drug addicts in the USA and other countries of the West. This problem existed in big cities like Moscow and St. Petersburg. Today different drugs are sold in our city and what is worse they are bought and taken by people, mostly young people. Drugs are ruinous for health and they destroy the personality of those who take them.
I"d like to tell you about my native town. Izhevsk is very large industrial town locted in the European part of Russia between the Volga River and the Ural mountains. It has a population of about 700.000. Izhevsk was founded in l760 as a settlement. The industrial development f the history began with the construction of an iron works. In 1918 Izhevsk became a town and since 1921 it has been the capital of Udmurtia.
Science is finding out about things around us. How do you find out about things? One way is to ask questions about them. But suppose no one knows the answers. Then you have to think of ways to find the answers yourself. This usually means doing something to the «thing» to see what happens. Doing something to see what happens is called experimenting. Scientists ask questions about things around us.
The Udmurt Republic is a sovereign republic within the Russian Federation. It is situated in the Western part of the Middle Urals between two great rivers the Kama and the Vyatka. In 1991 the republic became open for foreign visitors. Since that time Udmurtia has had close and friendly relations with many countries of the world in the fields of culture, education, trade, sport and tourism. The Government of the republic is very much interested in the development of local tourism.
There are many problems in our world and people suffer a lot because of them. Some of these problems are created by people, some of them happen because of the nature. Terrorism is one of the most important problems nowadays.
If you ask any child at school or even in kindergarten, they have already known the meaning of this word. Terrorist is a person who uses violence against civilians, in the pursuit of political aims. If you have ever watched the news or other programs on TV, if you use internet and read articles sometime, you have sure heard about different cases that happened around the world. The government doesn’t really want to say, that some catastrophe or problem have happened because of terrorism. But most of the times terrorists don’t want to hide and they are ready to do everything to achieve their goals.
There is a famous organization OSCE that tries to manage with this problem all around the world. All countries are participants. I think in this situation, there is no “your problem” or “my problem”. There is our problem and we must stop or at least prevent these cases. OSCE fights with terrorism because it’s a serious crime and it doesn’t have any justification. I do believe that any problem can be solved in piece with only conversation.
I am far away from politics and still don’t understand many things, but I am sure any kind of violence is not good.
In general I think people which ready to become terrorists, they are mentally sick. I read in internet that many killers and terrorists can not manage with their psyche and they start to kill.
Not only organizations in the world, but also ordinary people have to be attentive. Unfortunately terrorism has still many supporters and any accident can happen. One explosion in the building or on the railway station, broken bus, poisoned gas and many other things. But if we are more careful and attentive, we can prevent these accidents or at least some of them.
Терроризм
В нашем мире есть много проблем и люди очень страдают из-за них. Некоторые из этих проблем созданы людьми, а что-то происходит из-за матушки-природы. Терроризм одна из самых больших проблем сегодня. Если вы спросите любого ребёнка в школе или даже в детском саду, они уже знают значение слова «террорист».
Террорист - это человек, который использует насилие против мирных жителей в политических целях. Если вы когда-либо смотрели новости или другие программы по ТВ, читали статьи в интернете, то наверняка слышали о разных происшествиях по всему миру. Правительство не всегда хочет говорить людям, что какая-то катастрофа произошла из-за террористов. Но в большинстве случаев они (террористы) не прячутся и готовы сделать все, чтобы добиться своей цели.
Есть известная организация ОБСЕ, которая пытается бороться с этой проблемой во всем мире. Все страны ее участники. Мне кажется, в этой ситуации нет «твоей проблемы» или «моей проблемы». Есть только «наша проблема» и мы должны сделать все, чтобы остановить это или хотя бы предотвратить. ОБСЕ борется с терроризмом, потому что это серьезное преступление и нет здесь никаких оправданий. Я верю, что любую ситуацию можно решить мирно ведя беседу.
Я далека от политики и не понимаю многих вещей, но уверена, что любой вид насилия - это плохо.
Вообще я считаю, люди, которые готовы стать террористами, больны ментально. Я читала в интернете, что многие убийцы и террористы не могут совладать со своей психикой и начинают убивать.
И не только организации в мире, но и обычные люди должны быть внимательными. К сожалению, у терроризма до сих пор множество сторонников и разное может случится: взрыв здания или станции, сломанный автобус, отравляющий газ и так далее. Но если мы будет внимательными и осторожными, мы сможем предотвратить эти несчастья или, хотя бы, некоторые из них.
And thereby to bring about a particular political objective. Terrorism has been practiced by political organizations with both rightist and leftist objectives, by nationalistic and religious groups, by revolutionaries, and even by state institutions such as armies, intelligence services, and police.

Definitions of terrorism are usually complex and controversial, and, because of the ferocity and violence of terrorism, the term in its popular usage has developed an intense stigma. It was first coined in the 1790s to refer to the terror used during the by the revolutionaries against their opponents. The Jacobin party of carried out a involving mass executions by the . Although terrorism in this usage implies an act of violence by a state against its domestic enemies, since the 20th century the term has been applied most frequently to violence aimed, either directly or indirectly, at governments in an effort to influence policy or topple an existing regime.
Terrorism is not legally defined in all jurisdictions; the statutes that do exist, however, generally share some common elements. Terrorism involves the use or threat of violence and seeks to create fear, not just within the direct victims but among a wide audience. The degree to which it relies on fear distinguishes terrorism from both conventional and warfare. Although conventional military forces invariably engage in against the enemy, their principal means of victory is strength of arms. Similarly, guerrilla forces, which often rely on acts of terror and other forms of propaganda , aim at military victory and occasionally succeed (e.g., the in Vietnam and the in Cambodia). Terrorism proper is thus the systematic use of violence to generate fear, and thereby to achieve political goals, when direct military victory is not possible. This has led some social scientists to refer to as the “weapon of the weak” and terrorism as the “weapon of the weakest.”
In order to attract and maintain the publicity necessary to generate widespread fear, terrorists must engage in increasingly dramatic, violent, and high-profile attacks. These have included , takings, kidnappings, car bombings, and, frequently, suicide bombings. Although apparently random, the victims and locations of terrorist attacks often are carefully selected for their shock value. Schools, shopping centres, bus and train stations, and restaurants and nightclubs have been targeted both because they attract large crowds and because they are places with which members of the civilian population are familiar and in which they feel at ease. The goal of terrorism generally is to destroy the public’s sense of security in the places most familiar to them. Major targets sometimes also include buildings or other locations that are important economic or political symbols, such as embassies or military installations. The hope of the terrorist is that the sense of terror these acts engender will induce the population to pressure political leaders toward a specific political end.
Some definitions treat all acts of terrorism, regardless of their political motivations, as simple criminal activity. For example, in the the standard definition used by the (FBI) describes terrorism as “the unlawful use of force and violence against persons or to intimidate or coerce a government, the civilian population, or any segment thereof, in furtherance of political or social objectives.” The element of criminality, however, is problematic, because it does not distinguish among different political and legal systems and thus cannot account for cases in which violent attacks against a government may be legitimate . A frequently mentioned example is the (ANC) of , which committed violent actions against that country’s apartheid government but commanded broad sympathy throughout the world. Another example is the movement against the Nazi occupation of France during .
