Social, economic, and environmental impact of high-speed rails in the Czech Republic: Expected impacts of high-speed rails on the Ústí nad Labem region
 TOMS, Tomáš
The commissioning of the first high-speed lines in the second half of the 20th century not only breathed new life into the receding railway, but this mode of transport has become the backbone of transport in many developed countries around the world. Among its greatest advantages are both the minimal environmental impact and the associated socio-economic benefits. This thesis introduces the issue of high-speed lines in the North Bohemian region of Ústí nad Labem and examines the expected impacts of the new infrastructure from the perspective of residents and passengers, as well as from the perspective of the experts in charge of planning and building high-speed lines in the country.

Works of world literature comprised within reading of contemporary high-school graduates
 TOMS, Tomáš
As the attitude of readers to literature is evolving in time, the form of state graduation exam and related compulsory reading is evolving as well. Current high-school graduates have the obligation to read at least 20 books from the lists that are prepared by their schools. The goal of the bachelor thesis Works of world literature comprised within reading of contemporary high-school graduates was to find out the pre-graduating students´ attitude to world literature. We confirmed that the quantity of pages of the work is important for graduates during their choice of compulsory reading, they appreciate books that are not so time consuming and they prefer prose to drama and poetry. The majority of respondents take into account a recommendation of more experienced reader, a teacher in our case. The research also showed that in spite of the obligation of graduation exam at high schools and the obligation of reading books from the limited recommended number of books, the graduates are not discouraged from reading other books and they read books of their own choice in their free time. In these publications, the genre of fantasy, sci-fi or detective novels, is dominating. Most of the current students are well informed about foreigner and Czech literature and they are able to match several representative authors and works to their countries.
