1. In my opinion critical thinking means think logically and carefully.

 


2. Critical thinking is the intellectually disciplined process of actively and skilfully conceptualizing, applying, analysing, synthesizing, and/or evaluating information gathered from, or generated by, observation, experience, reflection, reasoning, or communication, as a guide to belief and action. In its exemplary form, it is based on universal intellectual values that transcend subject matter divisions: clarity, accuracy, precision, consistency, relevance, sound evidence, good reasons, depth, breadth, and fairness.

Culture

My definition: Culture is all the knowledge and the living style of a society. Some traditions and special events differentiate a society from other cultures. Every society has different culture, mostly culture belong with their religions. In the whole world we have many symbols of cultures like some old buildings describe some cultures for example Muslims culture belongs with Islam and go to mosque for pray. CARLA's definition: I my opinion I completely agree with the statement, it explain the correct aspects of a culture. I grew up in a Muslim country Pakistan so my thoughts and my life style represents my culture because my parents and elders taught me that manner which belongs to my culture and society and whenever I compare my culture with other cultures I find it different and unique because of its qualities ways of life.

Which is more important in sport – winning or taking part? Are you a good loser?

Sports are the best time pass which make you fit and prevent from many bad habits like smoking, drinking, drugs etc. Victory is for only one team in every game so if the match is good and fair than that does not make any difference who is winner.;

2. Should we always try to keep politics out of sport?

Yes, we should always keep politics out of sport because sport represent a true and fair event and if politics will be include in it than it makes that game worse. People will stop following the sport which will be a huge loss for mankind. It will affect the sports man spirit as well.

3. What are the most important events in the sporting calendar in your country? Which of these events do you enjoy most? Why?

Cricket is the most important event in my country. Especially the match is between Pakistan and India. It is the most popular match in cricket and many cricket followers watch this. It is because of rivalries of both nations.

4. In Britain, the big events include the boat race, the Grand National & the derby (horse races). The five nations (rugby) the FA cup final (football), the test match (cricket) and Wimbledon (tennis). Which of these would you like to see? Why?

I would like to see cricket match because I am a follower of cricket and I have been played for my countries junior team.

5. Is it easy to take part in sport in your country? Which sports do you do and how often do you take part?

No, it is very easy to take part in any sport in my country. I played cricket for my country for 4 years. I go to my cricket club 4 days in a week.

6. Who are your sporting heroes and heroines? Why do you admire them?

Imran Khan is my sporting hero because he was a really good player of cricket and worldwide recognised person because of his sportsman spirit. He was declared the most attractive person on late nighties.

7. Should the Olympic Games be held only in Greece or should they change between different countries? Where would you like to see them held next time?

They should change between different countries so that each country can take part on organising the Olympic Games. I would like the Olympic game to be held in Britain next time.

8. Do you think that boxing is a true sport? Should it be included in the Olympic Games? Should it be made illegal?

Boxing is purely man’s game it should be included in Olympics. Many people follow this game it shoes the stamina of a man and many legend players were came out from this game like Muhammad Ali.

9: Which is your favourite sport to watch and what do you think are the qualities of a good team or a true champion in that sport?

Cricket is my favourite sport and I like to watch it. A good team should be calm and full of sports man spirit because it is not that important who win the game but sportsman spirits is more important which make a man to player.

UK Riots

                                                            guardian.co.uk (2011)




On 6th of august 2011 a terrible incident happened in history of UK. Some protestors came out in London and they got violent. Later on many people joined them and they converted into riots. It was started on 6th and it was stopped on 11th of august. The reason of this protest was that a police officer shot a person mistakenly because he was carrying a gun. Protestors made a huge mess in the main cities of UK they were stealing shops, malls; they destroyed the infrastructure which costs millions of pounds. London riots started from London and later on it covered the big cities of UK. UK lost a huge amount of money in this incident. In my opinion government should take a serious action again the riots because messing and destroying public properties is not legal whether they are protestors so they should protest with a peaceful manner. And social media played an important role in London riots because many people were encouraging other people to come out and join the protest which was a cause of big disturbance in the UK.
