A glance at the four pie charts provided reveals a comparison of the people of the two countries, Yemenand Italy for the three various age groups in two different Periods, in 2000 and foresight for 2050. Overall, it is apparent from the information supplied that the remarkable change in society related to 15-59-year-olds during these years for both countries. In 2000, in Yemen, the old people made up 3.6% of the total number of people in comparison with 24.1% in Italy. The 0-14 year group in Italy reached 14.3 %, which was almost 3 times higher than that of Yemen. Moreover, in Italy, the figure for 15-59 year-age was by far the most important in 2000, accounting for 61.6%, while Yemen's young people just reached 46.3 % at the same time. In 2050,the 0-14 age group in Yemen is forecasted to account for 37%, which is higher than that figure in Italy roughly 25%. On the other hand a tiny fraction of the old people is projected to be recorded in Yemen, 42.3% of Italy's people are expected to be elderly. The figure for Yemen and Italy's 15-59-year-old people is predicted to occupy 57.3% and 46.2%, respectively.

Too much money is spent on maintaining and repairing old buildings. Some people think that they should be knocked out to give way to modern buildings.
To what extent do you agree or disagree?
The vast majority people believe on constructing stylish buildings to live in while many suggest to keep the ancient buildings. Ancient buildings send message to the new generation on what did look like and their behaviors.
There are many reasons to illustrate on how the old buildings are important for the new generations. First of all, the ancient buildings are made by our ancestors and I personally believe that we should have a look their imaginations and constructing buildings. Second of all, to see the constructing historic buildings make us more creative persons in our live to make even better buildings for the generations ahead.
On the other hand, new constructions can be an innovative model. If I point it out to some example, the connection of people in highly raised buildings are more simplified than the old ones. For instance, the high raised buildings are more proper for the economy and population. Office workers can be easily contacted.
Consequently, office workers and city dwellers do not waste the connection time. Many people are also happy to manage their things closely in office and it’s definitely preventing by going for away from on office to another.
