SET GOALS TO SUCCEED 
Did you know that writing can increase productivity, help manage stress, and even reduce 
depression? It also orders thoughts and emotions, and allows people to locate and solve problems 
and negative feelings. What's more, writing allows the mind to brainstorm solutions too, 
especially when goals are pursued. And yet, despite how powerful writing can be, very few 
people undertake this practice. For example, it's estimated that less than two percent of people 
write down goals. 
The study demonstrates that writing combined with setting goals can limit any damaging 
beliefs students might have about their own academic performance. This is true even if the belief 
comes from negative stereotypes which the students might personally presume.

SOLAR ENERGY 
The production of energy through the sun’s power is steadily increasing. In some parts of 
the world solar power has become even cheaper than fossil fuels, like oil or natural gas. Solar 
power is opening up new opportunities for developing countries. Many of these countries would 
have to wait for a long time to get enough electricity. 
The sun’s energy does not only provide us with light and heat. As solar cells are 
becoming more efficient solar power has become a source of energy for many devices and 
machines, from cell phones to cars, ships and airplanes. The solar energy boom is also creating 
tens of thousands of new jobs every year. Currently, about 1.3 million people are working in the 
solar power business, over 400 000 in China alone. All in all, solar power will definitely be the 
number one alternative energy form of future decades. 
 
A THEME PARK 
In 2020, a theme park in Hong Kong had to close because of the coronavirus. For the 
year, the park was closed for more than 200 days. It is open now again, but the park owners must 
limit the number of visitors by 25%. 
The chairman of the park said that the current situation was a chance for the park to find 
new ways to attract visitors. The park is located on the coast and there is a lot of greenery, which 
makes it possible to do activities like glamping, which is a form of camping, but it is more 
comfortable. Visitors can also do yoga in an aquarium. 
Tourists cannot travel to Hong Kong now, so it is necessary to make the park more 
attractive for local people. The chairman said that it could take years to return to the situation 
before the coronavirus started.
