Alcoholism

   Alcoholism is one of the main causes of health, family, labor and social problems in the current world. We all know that drinking in excess is not good, but we rarely we suggest our own personal situation in front of the drink. An alcoholic tends to consider their consumption as "moderate", without knowing the scientific criteria of moderation, and to believe that our drinking is "normal", often ignoring the signs and symptoms of addictive behavior.

  Generally, for some people the alcohol is becoming little by little in something more and more important in his life, being able to become his owners and thoughts, as well as to alter in his way of negative behavior. When this happens, and the person continues to drinking, it is when you can talk about "dependence", of "addiction" or "alcoholism". The family members or friends of the problem drinker are usually the first to realize that something does not go well and try to press it to stop being drinking. Other times it is one who tries for its own means to move from alcohol, drinking less or leave it completely.

   Alcoholism is not a common disease that is solved by taking a certain medicine or by surgery. For a person to be able to overcome their dependence on alcohol is necessary to learn to cope with situations of daily life without drinking, and without having a bad time for not doing so. Once alcohol becomes a problem for a person or a family, it is best to put yourself in the hands of specialists.

    Trying to solve it with good words, with pressure,with threats or waiting for time to solve it,only leads to delay and aggravate the case,increasing the frustration of the patient and the family. T he only positive pressure that must be exerted is that oriented to the problematic drinker getting in touch with a specialized and competent therapist.

   In conclusion, alcoholism is a terrible addiction that can end the life of a person including his family. Previously, some possible solutions have been proposed to help them adapt to a clean life without alcohol.

Bad health habits

   Bad health habits are those actions or negative behaviors that are repeated by a person in a systematic way. These actions or behaviors have negative consequences on health, bring irreparable damage, are difficult to correct and lead to a worse quality of life. Generally as human beings we try to hide these actions from others or simply ignore them to avoid finding a solution.

    Statistics show that 96% of the population has bad habits that they do not try to solve. There is an extensive list of bad habits, but the most common are: smoking, drinking excessively, sleeping too much, eating in a disorganized and unhealthy way, having a sedentary lifestyle, and drinking drugs.

   Psychologists suggest that the first step in eliminating bad habits is to recognize them as a real problem. The person who refuses obviously will continue in the same water. The second one is to be willing to change because this way you will fight with tenacity, until you eliminate completely that bad habit. The third one  is to cut the roots. It will take a considerable time to do it, but with determination it is achieved.

   In conclusion a bad habit is an action that over time can only avoid living fully for this reason it is our duty to fight against them by initiating the steps mentioned above because by following them correctly we will not only know more about ourselves

Water Pollution

   Water is the basic resource to guarantee the life of all living beings on the planet, but its scarcity and pollution cause millions of people to have poor access to this much-needed good. Over the years this has been a problem that has been growing terribly, so as human beings we must be fully informed about this irreversible situation.

   Have you ever wondered how all this has happened? the answer is simple, the human being is the main cause of water pollution, which can be affected in many ways: with the dumping of industrial waste because of the increase in temperatures, which cause the alteration of water by decreasing the oxygen in its composition because of deforestation, which causes the appearance of sediments and bacteria under the ground and the consequent contamination of groundwater.

   The wrong managed water and sanitation services expose the population to preventable risks to their health: diseases such as cholera, diarrhea, dysentery, hepatitis A, typhoid fever and poliomyelitis. This is especially true in the case of hospitals in which both patients and professionals are exposed to increased risks of infection and disease when there are no water supply, sanitation and hygiene services.

  There are many solutions that could be implemented to prevent this vital resource from continuing to contaminate. Firstly,of all it is to take into account the importance of the trees that over the years have played a vital role in the life of our planet. Secondly, promote and make good use of all the products that have been offered by the industries since the number of damages they provide are catastrophic. Thirdly, implement laws that punish the industries that year after year have thrown toxic waste on rivers, lakes and seas since the purpose of all this is to give the value it deserves to this resource

   In conclusion, water pollution is a situation that has gone out of our control, we must react now that we are on time because we can lose this vital liquid that is important even for plants. We must be aware of the valuable resources that our planet has before everything is completely lost.

Nowadays, English is one of the most spoken languages in the world not only by its popularity but also by its evolution through the years. English is a Germanic language that has an interesting history full of battles and periods of time which permanently marked the development of English trough time. There are five main periods in the history of English that tell us how this 

Sá de aa in what now is England and how it has evolved over the years.

The first Indo-European speakers to arrive to this country known today as England were the Celts that the historians does not have an specific date about their arrival, but they assure they were already on the British Isles several centuries before the birth of Christ. In 55 BC, Julius Caesar who was the Roman Emperor tried several times to invade British; although, it was not possible until 55 AD that this place was under Roman domination. In 410 after Christ Roman legions came back to Rome, so the Jutes and Saxons attacked the eastern coasts and the Britons were driven back into mountain areas of Cumbrias.  As a result, Wales Germanic speaking tribes replaced the Celtic people.

The second period called the old English occurred between 600-1100 AD. This started when Germanic tribes (the Saxons, the Angles and the Jutes invaded Britain. The old English period is characterized by the strong linguistic influence of the Germanic, Saxon and Jutes tribes since their invasion allowed that a combination of diverse dialects will create a new language which is used to refer to the language now called Old English, spoken and written by the Anglo-Saxons and their descendants in this country now known as England and the southeastern part of Scotland.

The third period known as the Middle English begun with the battle of Hasting in 1066, that was a key event in the Norman conquest of England because William Duke of Normandy who was known as William Conqueror after the battle, defeated the king Harold II in October of the same year. As a king William decided to make political and social changes that affected enormously the English language. As a result, all these events made that English lost its status and became the language of the lower classes.  In 1204 the King John Lackland lost his English possession in France because of, this English was replaced by French as the official language in England, but there were important events the sealed its fate, the Black Death, the Hundred Years War, the introduction of painting press and the discovery of America in 1492, This latter marked the end of the Middle English.

         The fourth period called the Early Modern Language, during these years occurred diverse events that influenced the language.  Firstly, we have two events that sealed its destiny, the Hundred Years War between 1337-1453 and the Black Death in 1337 which killed one third of population in five years. Secondly, we have two incidents that had an enormous impact on the development of English, the introduction of the printing press to England in 1476 by William Caxton and the discovery of America in 1492. Thirdly we have the ascendancy of Henri VIII in 1509 who eventually cut the links to Rome and the Catholic church. Then we have one of the most important event in that era. Finally, the Great Vowel Shift since the language suffered radical changes, the works of William Shakespeare and the beginning of the scientific age around 1700.

Lastly, the beginning of the present day English started by the end on the reign of Elizabeth I in 1603 who was the daughter of Henri VIII. In this later period literature had boomed trough the works of Marlowe of Spencer, William Shakespeare, Francis Drake and Walter Raleigh. Their works had laid the foundation for expanding the English influences in the new world. The worldwide spread of this language consist in terms of three concentric circles. Firstly, the Inner circle which refers to traditional, historical and social linguistic origins of English where it is used as a first or native language. Secondly, the Outer circle includes countries colonized by Britain and United States where English is spoken as a second language and where it plays important historical, and    governmental role in multilingual settings. In the last one called Expanded circle was not institutionalize English as an official language, but recognized the important of it as a foreign language.

In conclusion, the English language has a complex history full of episodes that allowed the establishment of a language with particular linguistic characteristics. English evolution consisted in five main periods which we discovered that little by little was losing influence in the Middle English and was almost removed by the arrival of French language; although, the English did not disappear and regained its strength with the explosion of literature which allowed its spread. All these events explain its development trough the centuries and why is one most important languages in the world since it is spoken around 1.5 billions of people.
