A Film Review

 THE TITANIC

                                                                                    Presented by Maria Sarri C4

ONE OF MY FAVOURITE MOVIES

I will refer to a film that seems to be out of date. It is one of my favourites. I saw it recently. The Titanic is American dramatic, seasonal film, produced in 1997 by James Cameron, based on the most famous wreck of all time, that of the Titanic that sunk on April 14, 1912. Leonardo Di Caprio and Kate Winslet starred. The film tells the story of Jack and Rose, two young people from different social classes, who fall in love on the ship on a fateful trip. Although these two central heroes are fantastic, several characters are based on real people. Gloria Stewart performs the elderly Rose, who tells the story, and Billy Zane,  young Rose’s fiancé. I definitely recommend the film.

A Greek dietary secret

The Mediterranean Diet

                                                                                 Presented by Efstratia Tsampouri C2

I believe our diet is very important- a healthy diet is the main factor behind a long and healthy life. As our country is in the heart of the Mediterranean and these products are easy to find, there is no reason why each and everyone of us, can't follow this diet.

The so-called Mediterranean diet is a modern nutritional recommendation, based on the dietary patterns of Greece, Southern Italy, France and Spain in the 1940s and 1950s. The basic principles of this diet include high sonsumption of olive oil, cereals, fruit and vegetables. Moderate consumption of fish, dairy products and wine and low consumption of meat products.

 The olive tree was very special. It was the symbol of the whole Mediterranean area during ancient times. Thanks to the olives it served as a source of food and olive oil.

The olive tree was a totem in ancient Greece

 The origin of the Olive trees in the city of Athens is explained through the intervention of the Goddess Athena, who symbolized prudence and cunning. In addition Athena was Goddess of justice and wisdom and protector of arts and literature. Her sacred animal was the owl and the olive tree was one of her most recognized symbols. The olive tree symbolized the Goddess.

Popular mean girl Veronica frequently attempts to make Sierra's life miserable, showering her with cruel taunts and comments (especially regarding her appearance), which she often effortlessly and wittily sidesteps. When Jamey, a handsome football player from another school, asks Veronica for her number, she gives him Sierra's number instead, because Veronica has a boyfriend who is in college, and she also wishes to embarrass Sierra.
