Come retirement time, however, a great number of them feel lost and suffer physically and psychologically through the absence of the same routine. Why do you think this happens? I Climate change has been a critical issue in recent years due to its destructive consequences caused by natural disasters, such as storms, hurricanes, flooding and landslides.

Hashim: Could you please tell me where I can find biology books and research documents? Librarian: What exactly are you looking for? Hashim: It's about a science project and I need to gather information, in order to create a timeline for biological research over the last 60 years or so. Librarian: see. That must be interesting. It can't be easy to collect all the information and choose the key items you need but I'm sure you'll manage. Go to aisle 5 and look up the biology section. I'm sure you'll find what you need. Hashim: I hope so. Thanks for your help. Librarian: One more thing! The research documents are in the reference section. You have to sign and get a key. You can look up what you need and read documents in the reference section, but you mustn't take anything out. Can I photocopy any pages? Hashim: Librarian: You'll have to check with me first. You are not allowed to photocopy old manuscripts. Hashim: I understand. Thanks again. (an hour later) Ali: I've noticed you have to use a whole pile of books. Are you doing research? Hashim: Yes, I'm trying to. But I'm not sure I can do it within the deadline. I'll need to spend days in the library, reading and making notes. Ali: Hashim: Ali: Hashim: Ali: Hashim: Ali: Don't you worry! Of course you'll make it. It seems impossible at first but you get used to it. Would searching online or using eBooks help? That would be awesome but all the computers are taken. No, not really. How about using this one? I'm just about to leave. Are you sure? Absolutely. I'll let the librarian know on my way out. You'd better move over right away before someone else takes it. Here, I'll help you move your things. Thanks a lot. I owe you big time! Not, at all. I'm sure you'd do the same!
