The Black Hole

1. Black holes are places in space from where not even light can get out, because black hole’s gravity
pulls is extremely strong. They can be big or small and because light cannot get out, they are invisible
to people.

3. The black hole in the short film is printed on a piece of paper. I think the objective of the short film
is to highlight the greedy nature of people and how too much power can be blinding. It is presented in
a manner so that the viewers can see the consequences of immoral actions, but they can interpret the
short film on their own in ways that are probably similar to each other.

4. a. Money doesn’t grow on trees.

b. Money makes the world go around.
c. Money is the root of all evil.
d. Money can’t bring you happiness.
e. The money’s burning a hole in his pocket.
f. That’s money down the drain.
g. She spends money like water.
h.
i.

5. Money is commonly viewed as a goal. Having a lot of money is seen as a requirement in order to
be considered successful or to gain other social statuses. In reality, however, money has been shown
to not impact happiness, as long as you can live comfortably. Those extra dollars that some people
have are meaningless. Of course being rich might make you feel better about yourself than being
average, but most people that crave to become rich, have this desire because they think money will
get rid of their problems or reasons to not be happy.
Humans, social beings, need human interaction, so I would argue that the most valuable thing
people could have is good, true friends, and a loving family. And you cannot put a price on friendship,
or at least on true friendship. These close connections you can have with people are something many
rich people are unable to have because of the people that are in these circles of rich men and women,
and the etiquette they have to follow.
To conclude, I think that the best things in life are definitely precious, but not in terms of their
price, because, although currencies fluctuate, friendships and family can forever keep their strength
and warmth.
