Czech students who remained in the occupied territory could continue their studies at this school. After their emigration, the Maria Theresia Shule-Obershule school for Majen opened here, which lasted until February, after which a military hospital was created, until the arrival of the Soviet Army in May. After liberation, the gymnasium began to recover, although in somewhat different political and social conditions. The first post-war school year passed with considerable difficulties.

A branch of the Faculty of Education of the University of Palacky in Olomouc was also temporarily activated. Further development of the school greatly influenced organizational change. They were trained for 26 hours and practiced for 6 hours. This school year was the last year of the gymnasium for a long time, because the gymnasium as a bourgeois retreat was canceled and replaced by an 11-year-old secondary school.
In the first year of training of a new type, 669 students studied at the school, including an evening studio for workers. In connection with the then emphasis on the close connection of theoretical training with production, polytechnical education was taught at the school.

In the end, however, our entire society noted the emergence of the so-called normalization, which did not appear in all areas of political, economic and social life, not including education. Later there were also cadres of permanent teachers. Fortunately, our gymnasium avoided personnel purification, as well as professors from the Khavirzhov gymnasium: Boguslav Petrer and Josef Chikhakov. After 12 years, this time as an outsider, Professor Tršinec Grammar School František Stakhovec began working here.
At the beginning of the year, the school was preparing for its first great anniversary celebrations, namely the fifty, which took place from September to September. An exhibition on the subject of school life was organized in the former school lounge: schoolchildren, lectures, teams, excursions, excursions, competitions, students' artwork, diplomas of outstanding teachers, scientific works and others.

Tasks 10 and 11 are performed using the map below.
10. Determine on the map the distance in the area in a straight line from point A to the spring.
Answer: _______________ m.
The entire program lasted two and a half hours and was an unexpected success. Unfortunately, not all of them were in the theater hall. The main day of the celebration was Saturday in September, when graduates, professors and guests met at school early in the morning to see the exhibit and the school. A rich refreshment was provided in the school canteen. In the afternoon, a solemn meeting was held at the Tesinsky Theater, where, in particular, the choir of Moravian teachers was held.

This was reflected in a decline in average wealth. The number of classes has even fallen. At school, the president of the Gottwald mine from Horney Sucha patronized the school. For the next academic year, for political reasons, they left the Faculty of Education in Ostrava and Professor Evgen Bash and Doc. Newly equipped wardrobes and gym. There was also a roof repair that was completed during the year.
The former living room has been adapted to the school's tradition hall. The introduction of new professional subjects was supposed to allow graduates to get more effective practice if they did not want to continue their studies at universities. On the other hand, this trend of the gymnasium as a school, which prepares its students mainly for college, hurts. A lesson of highly specialized technical disciplines with completely inadequate practice and lecturers, often without education in the field of education and psychology, aesthetic stamps - music and art education and a proven cutting gymnasium in the natural sciences and humanities were not too happy with the experiment.
14. Why is the salinity of the surface waters of the World Ocean higher in the tropical latitudes (about 36%) than in the equatorial (about 34%)?
15. What negative consequences can deforestation on the slopes of the Caucasus mountains have? Indicate at least two consequences.

Traditional events such as dance and social education, a school ball, academies, and student performances in various cultural and social events continued. The school continued to strengthen its prestige not only in the immediate vicinity of the city, but also in the region itself.
Students of the Czech gymnasium have successfully participated in national competitions for many years. Martin Bruchansky was a successful participant in the national cycle of secondary vocational education in Nitra. In addition, the school was not forgotten. All overhaul the building was covered by funds from the then North Moravian region, and its costs amounted to about 6 million kroons. In the middle of the year there was also a modernization of professional classrooms and classrooms. Gradually, the Biology Laboratory was created, a special room for biology, an office, a laboratory, and a physical and chemical class were created.

Overhead projectors were installed in the classes and TV distribution was made. Due to the growing number of students, a problem arose with the existing gymnasium, which does not have sufficient capacity to meet the needs of physical education and other sports. The facility is completed in a year.
Revolutionary changes in the further development of the school took place after November. In December, the Civil Forum was created, in which operations are actively involved in a significant part of the faculty and administrative staff. As the first school of Czech children, optional teaching of religion was introduced in the gymnasium. Hana Bihok remained at school as an English teacher.

14. The salinity of the surface waters of the ocean depends on the ratio of precipitation to evaporation. In tropical latitudes, with a predominance of descending air flows, the amount of precipitation is less than in equatorial ones, and evaporation is more.
The Russian language came to the background, its training was implemented at an optional seminar. The school, as one of the first in the republic, began the work of a seven-year gymnasium in addition to the current four-year cycle. Reintroduction of the human, scientific, and general industries. They departed from regular brigade events in agriculture; on the contrary, they received contests and competitions in a wide range of disciplines.
He decided very positively and still decides the leisure of students with daytime sports activities under the supervision of teachers. In a completely new spirit, the celebration marked the anniversary of the founding of the school. On the occasion of the creation of financial contributions, the panels documenting the history of the secondary school were reconstructed in the auditorium of the school.
15. Deforestation leads to a decrease in the ability of the soil to retain moisture, an increase in surface runoff, therefore, in mountainous areas, the destruction of forests on the slopes leads, on the one hand, to an increase in the spill of rivers, causing flooding, and on the other hand, to an increase in water erosion, the development of landslides, which causes damage agricultural land and settlements.
The actual celebration took place in those days - in May In honor of the solemn academy for students, parents, graduates and the general public, on the basement of the school the blackboard was opened by a martyr and a fallen high school graduate who gave their lives in the fight against fascism and communism. The new century has also led new trends in the teaching of foreign languages. Tours to Austria and Germany were also organized. The clerk who received scholarships in France were awarded the highest award in the country.
In connection with new trends in education and training, the subject of computer science and computer technology also began in this gymnasium. A classroom with 10 computers of the same category was created in the premises of the current library of the aul. A gradual transfer of the school’s agenda in the use of computing has also begun. The quality of work is made possible by the interconnection of computers in the classrooms and in cabinets in the school network, which was launched at the same time, a general reconstruction of the school telephone network was carried out.
16. Arctic air masses forming in the north of North America can penetrate to the latitude of the Gulf of Mexico, because the relief of the mainland in the central part is flat and they do not encounter obstacles (in the form of mountain ranges) on their way. The Canadian Arctic Archipelago, Greenland, the cold Hudson Bay deeply emanating into land on one side and the Mexican Gulf deeply emanating from land on the other hand create large differences in temperature and pressure between the north and south of the mainland, which, in turn, can cause air movement masses from north to south.
17. In moist equatorial forests, a large amount of plant litter; There are favorable conditions for the life of soil microorganisms. However, with a large average annual rainfall and daily rainfall, the soil is washed to a great depth, and nutrients are washed out of it. In addition, a hot and humid climate contributes to the fact that organic matter entering the soil decomposes very quickly and is absorbed by plants. Humus accumulation thus does not occur.
18. The north of the West Siberian Plain lies in the arctic and subarctic climatic zones. These types of climate are characterized by long and harsh winters. Precipitation is low, the height of the snow cover is low. Therefore, it does not protect the earth from deep freezing. Freezing is also facilitated by strong winds characteristic of these types of climate.
19. All listed cities are located at approximately the same latitude. The height of the Sun depends on the time of day and the maximum happens at noon. At 10:00 GMT, the noon will be on the meridian 30˚ east Of all these cities, Krasnoyarsk is located farthest from this meridian. Therefore, in this city the minimum height of the Sun will be observed.
20. Karst relief forms are formed if the territory is composed of soluble rocks (gypsum, salts, limestones). For the Ural marginal trough, sedimentary rocks are more characteristic (many of which dissolve when water interacts). In the Trans-Urals, soluble rocks are less common, solid crystalline rocks predominate. In addition, more precipitation falls in the Urals than in the Urals.
