In my opinion, the word culture means, they way in which a group of people share similar thoughts, traditions, lifestyle, beliefs, rules, territory, and so on. That is why they are able to share together and working for something in specific (Although, those people can change through the time)
In the case of civilization, for me this word means like a stage of time in which culture is influenced for civilization, it is a “new view point” in which our lifestyle change, economy, technology, and all those things. Civilization means as an improvement of thinking, in which human being, in that case people are improving or not their life with those new things that are increasing and invading our life. It is supposed that civilization would be useful and important for human but in some cases it isn’t because of the problems that it could bring.
Finally, critical thinking means, the way in which people can give their point of view about something, and also they are brave to express it in front of others. I think, it is very good way to share with others our own opinion, belief and argument about something. Where you are able to produce and talk about something that maybe could be taboo for us, etc.

Modern Times and Elizabeth "The Golden Age"
"Modern Times"
First of all, I have to say that I really like this movie. It showed us perfectly what was happening during this century with the industrialization and the effect of that. For example, we could be aware industry changed people by machine, why? Because machine was cheaper than an employee, what consequences it has? Less work for people because many of them came from the countryside to the city to get a job so, workers had less opportunity to get a job, manifestation increased too much and also puberty, the lack of food, etc. were presented in those years.
Modernity brought to people’s life many changes like: the use of new instrument, how to acquire, use it, etc. For example, people started to use bicycle, cars, train, new ways of communication like telephone, radio, etc. In that case, I think the modernity brought many good things like creation of instrument to use in every day but also, it brought difficulties to get a job, to support a family, etc.
ELIZABETH "THE GOLDEN AGE"
As we all ready know about Elizabeth’s Queen through classes and film. I have to say she was very important in British's History. She was a very strong girl who had to deal with many conflicts as we saw on the movie. For example, as she was against to the main religious on Europe, Catholicism, she had to fight with Spain to defend her empire, land, etc. That's why she felt with the obligation to defend the country because she was the face or she represented England people. As a consequence, she gave her life to England, letting all the things that it is suppose a woman have to do (get a husband, have a relationship with someone, etc. I am referring to feelings, happiness, etc), she made that England had power in Europe, creating a new religion, etc.
I believe she was very brave being a woman those years in which women weren’t important to the society. At least, she could demonstrate that women are able to participate in the society, have power, etc.
Referring to why she was called “the Virgin Queen”, it brought many consequences. First, as she was the queen of England, she had to live for her empire, letting a normal life in which she could have a husband, a baby, etc. As a consequence, she was called, “the Virgin Queen” so, she had like the responsibility to continue with her stated of single. Something that for me wasn’t so interesting, I mean, every human being have the possibility to do with their life whatever they want so, we have to accept them with their decisions.
