2 Houses: changes in the decoration, the architectural style; at this moment we have more apartments than houses. Women: started to work; so, men and women worked in and outside of the home. Today a couple has less children and later (in life) because they want a good economical life first. Women also started to study (higher levels of education). Paula Martins & Sandra Almeida At the moment there are more cars and they are smaller, quieter, less polluting and more common among people. In the cities there are more buildings with more apartments. These buildings have fewer balconies and less public gardens. Fashion is also different. The clothes are more practical and there are several different styles. Women are professionally more active. At the moment, people consider solutions for global warming, for pollution and for a healthier life for everyone in the world. António Ferreira & Isabel Bernardino

Nowadays, life is very different from the 60s. In our opinion the main difference is the lifestyle. In those days women worked at home and took car of the children.

3 Nowadays, life is very different from the 60s. In our opinion the main difference is the lifestyle. In those days women worked at home and took car of the children. In the 21 st Century, most women have a job, they start their married lives very late and consequently they have fewer children. Concerning fashion, society is going back to the 60s fashion style because today s clothes can be very similar. Nowadays, the models in magazines show a style very similar to the 60s. Ana Luísa Ferreira & Isabel Paiva Newspapers were black and white; nowadays, people have more information access. There are more brands of different products, like sunscreen, food, drinks. Marriage is not as important for both genders. The weather has suffered changes, such as hurricanes, and so on. Finally, women earn more money nowadays. Manuel Ferreira & Pedro Francisco

4 I would want a super power like speed or a sixth sense. I think speed is more fantastic, because this power would give me ways to solve more problems in the world. If I had the power of speed, I would go to many places and help many people. For example, when there is a catastrophe in a far away place I would arrive there quickly. But that power can solve other kind of problems, like whenever I m in the car stuck in traffic, I would start running and I wouldn t arrive late. When I wanted to go home I would also run and would not have to take the train, and that would be less expensive! If I had a super power I would be a super woman and my life would be very different. In fact, when I think about this possibility I d prefer to be normal, have a normal life with problems, difficulties, but always fight to solve them! Ana Filipa Soares If I had a super power I would choose flying. I d choose flying because I would like to see the world from above and I would go everywhere. I would use flying to see many nice places and I d have very nice wings. I would fly every morning in spring and summer, and I would control it with concentration. If I could fly, my life would be better and funnier! Ernestina Camacho

5 Hi...I m a simple person. I do normal things and sometimes I would like to do different things, but I don t do it because I can t. For example, I would like to travel around the world flying alone. So flying is a super power I would like to have. If I could fly, I d visit China and then I d be in the USA to have a cup of coffee with my American friends. I d just use it sometimes, maybe in summer. I think if had that super power it would be very difficult for me to control it, because I love to travel. Flying would change my life! At the moment I don t travel much, so if I had it, my life would be more dynamic Marlene Vieira If I had to choose a special power, I would choose a sixth sense, because I could feel, or sense vibrations and emotions around me. And I could use this special power to help myself and protect others from bad things, like illnesses in general and help people to be happier. If I had that power I think I would be glad to help others. To control this power I would have to have much control over my mind. I think I would use that power most of the time because many people need help. In fact, in the world there are a lot of problems of body or the mind, and there are many bad people, such as robbers. Ana Martins

6 Be friendlier and think more about others! To reduce the high levels of pollution, we should walk and use public transports more regularly! We should eat more vegetables and healthy food Take up healthier eating habits! Replant burnt areas! Try to achieve World Peace! Give houses (shelter) and food to the homeless! Provide work for everyone, as well as free medical services! Change the people s attitudes towards children (spend more time with them at home)! Be more tolerant and respect different cultures and religions (Arabian people)! Provide older people (senior citizens) with more attention and care! Make new policies regarding driving in the city! And if at first you don t succeed...try and try again!!! Helena Ribeiro, Natércia Nunes, Licínio Martins, Luís almeida, Paulo Enes, Cristina Pinto & Bruno Filipe

10 In the country we can live in a comfortable cottage. We can eat good fresh food and fish for our lunch. We can also drink clear pure water. We are free of dangers. We can see a beautiful view every morning and we can eat the rests of picnics (like cheese and bacon on the floor). It s safer and healthier from a mouse s perspective! To conclude, why don t you get to know natural places this weekend? And see the sunset with someone you love? We can say that we d live in the country because we enjoy relaxing every evening. Listening to the birds and waking up without any undesirable noise bothering us, such as cars, people walking and screaming in the street. Ana Alves & Sónia Góis In town, everything is nearby. There are more opportunities, more comfort, a high quality of life, many people of different cultures and more activities. We can visit theatres, cinemas and art galleries. We can also get the goods from the countryside. Living in town can also give you positive strengths to improve your capacities and skills (you can become more competitive). However, there are some not so positive aspects, like stress, traffic and pollution. Gonçalo Silva, Luís Santos & Sérgio Medeiros

11 Love is.. Very inspiring It is a fire burning inside my heart, A red rose waiting for you to receive it. It is arriving home tired and having you waiting for me, with a marvellous candle light dinner. It is accepting me as I am. It is having you near me, loving me. It is walking on the beach holding hands While facing the sunset. Inês Pinto Passion is followed by love, Love is a real feeling. Love makes you feel alive And complete when you re loved back. Love gives you a reason to live for And provides you with the strength To breathe passionately. Paula Mendes

Love is dreaming when you re awake. Love is the strength that fills up your heart, Like the sun warms up the spring.

12 Love is like the wind, You can t see it but you can feel it. Like the flowers need the sun, To survive I need your love. Whenever I see you, My heart turns into a burning flame. Like climbing to a mountain top, Our love makes my breath stop. Love is dreaming when you re awake. Love is the strength that fills up your heart, Like the sun warms up the spring. Love is like a train that goes everywhere, And returns again and again. Gonçalo Silva Fábio Gomes Ilídio Ferreira Susana Alarico Vitor Gil Sónia Góis

13 I d choose The Pyramids of Giza because I like the design. Apparently they seem like simple and linear monuments, but I find them very imponent, made with great art and intelligence. We shouldn t forget the people, the slaves who worked and died there, and show our appreciation. The pyramids were built with a purpose: to guard and honor the great emperors for all eternity, so I think it s in that same way that we should keep them and make them known to the whole world. Susana Alarico Machu Picchu ( ), that means old mountain, is the place where the Incan emperor Pachacutec built a city. This city is near the clouds half way to the Andes Plateau. After the Spanish colonization, the Incas abandoned the city. The city was lost in Today this place is visited by thousands of people, and I d enjoy going there too! Licínia Veríssimo

14 The Taj Mahal is the most beautiful place in the world because it represents a great love. This place is magical. The construction is fantastic because it has big gardens and a sumptuous building. Ana Rita Farinha Petra is one of my favourite choices to become a New Wonder because I think the way that it was built is very singular. It s incredible! In fact, this is the one I know best because I saw the last Indiana Jones film. Rafaela Graça Statues of Easter Island I choose this wonder because we still don t know who built them or what they mean, and they are beautiful too! I think if the Moai (the statues) become one of the Seven Wonders of the world, everyone should visit them, and so should I! Therefore, I must go to Easter Island as soon as possible!! Marisa Toste

15 The Great Wall of China was built between 220BC and , with one purpose: to defend China from being constantly invaded by Mongol tribes. It is being highly considered to become one of the New Seven Wonders because it is the largest man-made monument ever built. Many people gave their lives in order to build this wall to protect China. It is also the only construction we can see from space. Joana Cavaco I think it - The Statue of Liberty - should be considered a new Seven Wonder because it is a beautiful statue and it represents two very important ideals: freedom and independence. On the other hand, the Statue of Liberty represents the good relationship between two countries, and this is very important nowadays. It s a big staue representing big ideals. Maybe this is the reason why everyone knows the Statue of Liberty. Andreia Dias
