Film review "Cars 2



               "Pixar" movies always were my favourite ones. The reason for that is simple - deep and intriguing ideas are hidden in the shell of fantasy and state of the art computer graphics. I also admire "Pixar" for their hardwork, because they make their movies for both - adults and youngsters. While youngsters are enjoying fabolous view (now even in 3D) adults can watch a movie and contemplate about the developing situation. Incredible graphics, one of a kind characters and unforgettable plot makes this movie one of my favourites.
                Firstly, I bow to the ground facing the modelers and the people responsible for the visual part of the movie. It is absolutely incredible. During the whole movie I was stunned by the scenery. The plot takes place in real-world places like Tokyo, Italy and London but all of them have a little twist from the creators. Lighting, shadows, reflection and blurs - these are the details that make the whole movie look photorealistic, especeally in 3D.
                 Secondly, the characters are very interesting and vivid. Every single one of them have their own twists and are very different. The whole plot is based on the friendship of two friends: racer Lighting McQueen and all rusted Mater. There are a lot of other characters, which are not important but they are voiced by the well known people in the world. For instance the character in the image above the paragraph is voiced by the well known Formula 1 racer Lewis Hamilton. Such well known stars like Owen Wilson and Michael Cain also participated in the voicing.
                   Finally, as I mentioned before, the plot can be interpreted in different ways and the whole movie is for both - adults and youngsters. Nowadays it is rare that when you watch a movie you can enjoy the storyline and the scenery, visual effects. But this movie is an exception. All of the "Pixar" movies have this trait, that they are intriguing and very admirable to watch at the same time. I wont say much about the plot in order not to spoil the story, but all I can say is that it is based on friendship between two very different characters.
                  To sum everything up this movie is a must-see. If you havent seen this movie - immediately grab your little brother sister or daugter and son and go to a shop to buy this movie. This movie is one of the most advanced in the sphere of visual technologies and the plot makes this piece of art an unforgettable experience.

The art of cheating

                     Firstly, cheating is the kind of thing that most of the people went through during their schoolyear. If someone had not cheated during a simple test or an exam - he is simply not worth to be called a real student. Of course the main cause for cheating is the unbearable wish to get good grades and go into a good college. It is not a secret that if you want to go into a popular college or a university, one has to have good grades. Of course, it is a nervewracking thing, when you are writing something and at the same time avoiding attention from the teachers but if you succeed it is worth it.
                   Secondly, another big cause of studying is lasiness. Most students was, are and will be lazy throughout the time of studying. It is a total disaster to stay inside and to study mathematic algorythms instead of going outside to take a swim in the lake or play some football with your mates. And if someone chooses fun over studying cheating is the best way to keep your mood and grades high. Instead of sitting late the night before the test it is much more convenient to spend a half of hour making a proper tiny paper with the information one needs for the test.
                  Finally, if a person is lazy there is a big probability that he is dishonest. Which is why cheating can look like a casual thing for them. Almost all of my classmates used to cheat during various tests and they havent felt bad for it because cheating is popular and is much easier than studying half a day every week. Moreover, cheating may sometimes be even more useful than studying, because you when someone is cheating, he or her usually has a paper with the most important information. When creating this paper one usually does a summary of the subject he needs which is a much faster way than studying.
                  To sum everything up cheating is the kind of thing which ones may like but others may dislike, nevertheless every single human being cheated when he was doing something.In my opinion cheating is vital during the schoolyear because one does not simply harmonize studying and fun.

What does it mean to be a good teacher

You know that there are a lot of people who want to be teachers. If you are planning to become a teacher you have to think a lot before doing this. It is not so easy to teach in school. You have to feel a passion for teaching, have alot of good qualities, have to be well prepared for various subjects and to know a lot of things about the subject on which you are going to teach.

Firstly, a real teacher is a person who feels a passion for teaching. If you want to be a perfect teacher you have to love your job. If you adore your job then you will love everything what is concerned with it: the learning process, the spreading of knowledge and acquiring even more of it while teaching. I am sure that good teachers love their pupils and they behave with them very well.

Secondly, teachers must have good qualities. They have to be self-confident, curious and creative. If a teacher is not self confident, he or she is going to deliver lectures or lessons of bad quality. If you are teaching someone you have to be self-confident in yourself and in your knowledge. Besides, teachers have to be interested in their pupil‘s interests. This way it will be easier to communicate with pupils, because you will know theire interests. To add up communication between teacher and children is very important. Without communication teaching and learning process is simply impossible. Moreover, teachers have to keep in touch with their pupils when the classes are over.

Finally, it is not a secret that teachers have to be well prepared with their subjects. When people want to become teachers they have to know the theorethical side of their subject perfectly, because not knowing the theory prevents you from delivering it to pupils. Moreover teachers have to explain everything what pupils are asking, because it is the teachers top priority to explain everything that is not clear for the students. This is one of the most important points in being a good teacher.

In conclusion I would like to say that the most important thing before becoming a teacher is to think a lot before making this decision. If you are a teacher already, you do not have to forget that teaching requires a lot of things to be done. A real teacher is a person who has a lot of good qualities. Also, teacher has to adore his job. All teachers have to be very intelligent and self-confidence. Without these qualities they will not be real teachers.
