Survival 馃挭馃徑
Could you survive alone in the wilderness, or would you struggle (or perish), or need help? Explain.
I have never imagined being in the wilderness and I don't think I would like to go alone, although some people say that the desert brings you peace. Nevertheless if I were alone in the wilderness I would fight to survive and return to my family. I would do it until my last breath and with all my strength.
I would try to find water and food. I would hunt animals or insects at all costs. I would seek help from someone, a group of rescuers or give signals for help if a plane passed by. I would shelter from the sun with cloth or bushes and move forward. During the night I would take shelter inside a cave or rock formations. I would also try to stay calm at all times and repeat to myself over and over again: "I will survive."
I'd live on Mars if..馃殌
Would you leave Earth to colonise Mars with no chance of ever coming back? If so explain why with examples.
Many people are fascinated by everything about the Planet Mars largely because of its striking similarity to Earth. Did you know that while a day on Earth is 24 hours long, on Mars a day is 24 hours and 39 minutes? Mars stands out as the most habitable planet in our solar system after Earth. The gravity on Mars is strong enough to allow the human body to adapt to this extraterrestrial environment.
These are some facts I throw at you. However, I would still need more arguments to convince myself to leave Earth and colonize Mars without looking back.
To live fully on Mars I would have to have a large sum of money to build a large, highly advanced spacecraft with material adaptable to the conditions of space and the red planet. Once I have this, I would have to convince my family and friends to go with me, because alone up there I would be bored out of my mind. To convince them, inside the spacecraft there would have to be Internet, cell phones, laptops, oxygen supply and life support systems such as enough water and food for our long life. It would be very important to have a system that recycles water, food and waste for reuse without causing an environmental impact on the planet and leaving us with nothing. In addition, we would also have to bring with us people to provide health services, education and scientific research, so that, for a time, we would have a modern and advanced Martian city. Finally, our clothes would have to be specially made to last for many years and protect us from the Martian atmosphere and climate.
Only under these conditions would I risk going to live on Mars.
