Is learning to speak a foreign language as important these days as it was in the past? Write an **essay** giving your opinion. | Learning a foreign language always was an important thing in life. Obvoiusly, during all our history people always travelled a lot. Hence, they needed to know other languages. Prevoius it was Latin language, today most people is learning English. In that case, I honestly believed that nowadays learning to speak a foreign language is as important these days as it was in the past. Of course, nowadays people travelled around the world, they speak with people from other countries or even work with foreiginers. Therefore they have to speak an external language to comunicate with theirs co-workers. What's more, nowadays many companies employ people who know other language despite of the native one. Knowing a foreign language is very valuable these days. Without it, sometimes we can't achive what we want for instance an exellent job. Nowadays almost everything is based on knowing at least two different languages. Surly, I can't imagine not knowning another language. It's such a meaningful thing nowadays. Honestly, in my opinion, people should learn at least two foreign language for better comunication with other people |
Is learning to speak a foreign language as important these days as it was in the past? Write an **essay** giving your opinion. | I do not know that learning to foreign languages is important these days. In my mind it depends on the situation. If you have no ambitions and you are a lazy person, this is not for you. But if you are curious about the world, learning to foreign languages is very important. Especially if your mother language speaks only to people in your country and if you want to travel or have really nice and well paid work. Speaking some foreign language gives you the opportunity to travel and live wherever you want. You can meet a lot of people, change the experiences, make new friends and maybe find the love of your life. Learning other languages opens your mind for new experiences. When do you learn new languages you get to know new culture, the culture of people who speaks this language. In Summary, I can say that speaking more than languages is very important to have a better and more interesting life. Especially for me. |
You have seen this notice in an international music magazine: **Articles wanted** **Do we need music in our lives?** Are there times when music is important? How does music make us feel? What would life be like without music? Write and tell us what you think. Write your **article** in **140 to 190** words in an appropriate style. | Do we need music in our lives? It's the question. Are there times when music is important? I'm sure, for example the cold war times when the music helped soliders with fighting their enemies. They didn't give up because of music. How does music make us feel? There are variety of types of music, some of them make us happy, other ones make us sad. But definietly music takes a huge part in our feelings and emotions. What would life be without music? We can't say exactly, cause people are making music since always. They were making operas even in ancient Greece! That's why life without music can't be as good as this with it. That's why I'm pretty sure that we need music in our lives. People always wanted it in the past, and they also need it now, because life without music is not the same life. |

Nowadays people can travel around a world almost without any limits. During the last 100 years people change the waythey travel. Even our grand parents spent days or weeks for traveling between continents. Ships were the fastest mode of traveling. Than airlines started offer their services and nowa we can fligh in 24 hours around the glob. People trying to deleoped new way of transport to minimise lengh of travel. On the other hand we are looking beyond the horizon of the glob, we are intresting for travel into space. There are two companies which work for making traveling in space more accesible. It is a big chance that in a short future people will start traveling in to a space. At the beginning it could cost a fortune for ordinary people but it will change when more companies will developed their technology and services. It will still remains we will move from one place to another but we will use diferent mode of transport, maybe we will sleep during the trip to minimise the cause of traveling in space becasue we still don't know the impact on our body and mind when traveling on space. |

In what ways might it still be the same? The writer of the best article will win a prize! Write your article. | An old Chinese curse states: I wish you to live in curious times. We all definitely live in curious times now. Everything changed in 2019 when the coronavirus pandemic started. We will face the consequences for a long time. How it would affect our ways of travelling? One thing is certain: it would not be the same. First of all, in 2021 we still may be forced to focus on domestic trips. Before the roll out of the vaccine there will be obstacles in crossing the borders. I expect that the situation may go back to normality in early 2022. Secondly, the costs of the planes tickets may rise dramatically. A lot of airlines went bust and those that continue operating may be forced to cut losses. Apart from that, even before the pandemic, some of the people claimed that we shouldn't use the planes because of the environmental issues. Does it mean that we will stay at home? I don't think so. Maybe we will switch into electric cars and trains? We'll see soon. |

In what ways might it still be the same? The writer of the best article will win a prize! Write your article. | Since the dawn of times, man travel from place to place at the expense of the most precious and irretrievable currency; time. We can now travel at speeds that were beyond the imagination of commuters just a hundred years ago. I don't want to sound disparaging to the inventions like Hyperloop, but it seems like we are touching the limits. Therefore, the future of travel won't be much about the time, but about the comfort and safety. Even now, when I'm writing this article, some long distance planes are equipped with the latest comforts and luxuries. You can travel accross the Atlantic in your very own cabin which is like a one night stand in a five star hotel. When you arrive, you will be rested. Almost like the struggle of trip never happened. I believe that sooner or later we will be flying a mini version of town, where you not only can have meal, but also visit a hairdresser or a doctor. |

Your English teacher told you about Write and Improve and said you should use it to practise and improve your English writing. Your teacher has asked you to write **a report** about your experience with Write and Improve, describing what you liked or didn't like about it and why. Finish by saying whether you would recommend your classmates to try it. Write your **report**. | A report about my experience with Write and Improve Introduction The aim of this report is to present my experience about Write and Improve to my English teacher. Procedure The information below were collected from my experience of using Write and Improve during last three weeks. Findings I belive that the Write and Improve website is a very powerful tool for improving your writing skills. Nevertheless, the biggest disadvantage is that it will not give you clear message what is wrong in you sentence. It works great for both spelling and prepositons, however when you make a mistake in the structure of your sentence it just underline the sentence without further information. Conclusion In conclusion, I think that everybody can benefit from this website. It is a great tool which give you immediate feedback with level of your writing. I can recommend this website to my classmates without any doubt as excellent way of improving your English. |

Your teacher has asked you to write **a report** about your experience with Write and Improve, describing what you liked or didn't like about it and why. Finish by saying whether you would recommend your classmates to try it. Write your **report**. | Thank for recommending me write Write and Improve. I have found this tool to be quite useful. I will start my description from the positive aspects and then move on to the flaws. What I like the most about it is its levels of advancement. It seems that developers thought about all English learners. There are variety of writing tasks for each level which are related to everyday's situations. Another interesting feature is the progress scale which helps you monitor your improvement rate. However, feedback is the most confusing part. Sentences with an errors are being highlited and you receive a short, written explanation. On the one hand it's very detailed as even the lack of coma highlithes whole sentence. On the other, the written explanation is useless and you have figure for yourself what have you done wrong. I think that Write and Improve could improve a little. Then it would be superior to all other learning methods. |

I think because this is the free time for school and It is beautiful weather too. Honestly I don't have favourite season of the year as I really like all of them . However , if someone told me to choose one, i probably choose summer . Why? Of course It is a lot of things that I like in summer . First of all is that we have free time for school and we don't have to study. We can spend our holidays with friends and family and have great time with them. Am I right? My favourite things in summer is also sunny weather and that I can go to the lake or sea and swimming or sunbathing. And I love ride a bike with my friends too.

You have been asked to write a short __article__ for your school magazine with the title: *My favourite season of the year.* Describe your favourite season __and__ explain why it is so special for you. __Write your article.__ | My favourite season of the year is without the least doubt, summer. The main reason for that is that I simply like when it's warm, and summer is the warmest season in Poland. The average temperature is over 20 degrees which is perfect for me. The days are long, it's only getting dark at about 10 pm. I like it when it's bright, it boosts my energy. What I also love about summer is the summer nature. In this time of the year nature is in bloom. The plants are green and the flowers are so colorful. Another thing is that in summer I don't have to put on too many clothes, just a pair of jeans and a t-shirt and I'm ready to leave. And also long days and warm weather encourage me to take more walks and even a summer rain isn't the obstacle. |
You have been asked to write a short __article__ for your school magazine with the title: *My favourite season of the year.* Describe your favourite season __and__ explain why it is so special for you. __Write your article.__ | My favourite season of the year Everybody love one from 4 seasons of the year. Most commonly it's season when we have birthday or when happened an important for us event like wedding, vacation, Christmas or Easter. But I have other reasons. MY favourite season is spring. I think it is unique. In winter we stay at homes, take blankets and drink tea or cocoa. Outside is peaceful and quite. Nowadays in Poland snow doesn't fall. In winter in Poland is cold and wet. it is really pessimistic. But in spring everything change. Grass start be green (not brown or yellow like in winter). On trees we can see buds. Beautiful, little buds. I like when my neighbour's forsythia blooming. I feel happy when I look at it. In cities people go out, meet with friends, organise parties and events. People become happier, start smiling. Everybody make plans for summer. it's really optimistic. I wonder how many poeple love spring? |
You have been asked to write a short __article__ for your school magazine with the title: *My favourite season of the year.* Describe your favourite season __and__ explain why it is so special for you. __Write your article.__ | My favorite season of the year. If there were a possibility, I would create a new season. Season of fun! Well, maybe next time. Exquisit things are happening during the year. Althought there is one season I found particular. Autumn. Why you may ask? Autumn represents new academic year. I am always excited about it. My life is all about learning new things. Equally relevant to this is that chill weather allows me to easily focus. As you may notice at the hot peaks during summer, studying is not the best option. I loathe warm countries. Sweating and stinking is definetely unppleasant for me. Autumn is best time to travel. Flights tickets are much more cheaper. Climate makes it easier to walk long distance on an adventure. And last but not least. Autumn is peculliar to me because of my birthday at 17th November. All I do that day is being with the people I love the most. |
You have been asked to write a short __article__ for your school magazine with the title: *My favourite season of the year.* Describe your favourite season __and__ explain why it is so special for you. __Write your article.__ | My favourite season of the year is summer because I like when it's warm outside. It's the time when everybody are going to hollidays. I can visit my parents, my friends and fly somewere abroad. It's my sream to fly to exotic island, somewhere where is nice, just sea and blue sky. Last summer I was sick and it was a first year of pandemic so I didn't have real hollidays, spend only couple days with my boyfriend not far from home. This year I'm not sure I can afford for any trip, maybe into the mountains. I love climbing in summer, autumn is good too, in spring is to cold for this kind of activity. I'd like to change my job, so I probably won't be able to go somewhere for a long time. I remember the time we were visiting Greg in Barcelona. It was a little cold, c. a. twenty four degrees when we were on the beach because the cold wind blew. Soon we're planning a trip to U. S. A. I can't wait for that. Oh, summer hollidays! |

The current education system is quite different than our grandparents remember. In what ways do you think schools will be different in the future? I believe that learning in calss where is other 30 people is not effective, thus to increase the quality of learing the amount of student in the calss might be decreased to about 10 people. The other way to improve it is to create appropriate books or online talk so students could learn from home. In the future textbooks will be replaced by personal computers, so you will not have to carry very heavy backpack. The scientists might also find a better system, how to comprehend the knowledge quicker. So, it will reduce years which we spend in school. That is a difficult question to answer, beacause the future is unpredictible. Howewer, I am sure that the education will be different and more efficient than it is now. |

We are creating flying cars in our heads thinking about future. But how about schools? What will they look like in next hundred years? When you turn back a hundred years, you see how many changes became from that time. We already learn from different devices in school, teachers are showing information not only on blackboards, but also electric boards, on which they can fluently turn next topics. So whats next? It is believed that in the future robots will replace humans work. So this is how I see it... Teachers will be replaced by robots, but they still would look like real human beings. That would solve the problem of teachers deficit and eldery average age. I also think that in future students will have to give their fingerprint to prevent burglaries. But I suppose sitting in the wooden chairs in front of a desk will never change, because it is the only way teaching can be made. |

Write your article. | First of all, speaking about future we should specify what we mean by future, is this years or decades. It seems to me that in short term there will not be dramatic changes as concerns schools. A huge change has already been made in recent years thanks to the internet. Students have much easier access to various information, they don't have to go to library to get them, there are many useful and reliable internet websides which are a lot of help. I think that in future the use of internet in schools will be even more expanded. Online lessons may be more common. As concerns teaching content, it's probable that learners will be tought more practical knowlege than theory. Instead of teaching children advanced mathematics formulas and schemes, they will be able to cook numerous dishes from different cuisines or sue pants by themselves. Special emphasis should be put on classes where children are taught how to accept themselves , strenghten their self confidence and be stress resistant. The only thing will remain the same - learning! Nobody will do it for children. |

Write your article. | The school of the future will differentiate in many ways from a standard educational model. The teachers will not occupy the center the of the class but will become a mere facilitators. However, the importance of their role will persevere. It is the profile of the job that will evolve. The teachers of the future will cherish the pupils and hold them in the center of their attention, the center that has been taken by the curriculum. All of the teachers will be emotionally trained to maintain a high level of communion with the students. They will have a positive attitude and dulcet voice so students can feel that they are welcomed at all times. Students will decide upon their schooling programme which is immensely elastic. They will need to know a little about all everything, and everything about one chosen discipline. There will be no grading system, just the feedback pointing to strenghts upon which students can build their knowledge. However, the teachers will always be avaialble for students if they only wish to expand and amend some of their work. |

Because of the negative effects on health of an inactive lifestyle, all university students and school children should be forced to do sports activities at least 3 times per week. Do you agree? Write your **argumentative essay**. | This last year showed everyone how crucial being active is. Studies show that a mojority of people gained weight durning pandemic and what is more their conditon also decresed. For some sport was difficult before the pandemic, therefore is it neccessary to force evryone to do sport 3 times per week? What if schools came up with the solution, which will suit everyone abilities? In my opinion this enforcement might be good, if childern could indivitualy choose what they want to do. It is well known that these days people espacially students don't have enough time for extra activities. School work is consuming almost every minute of their lives, which should concern the goverment. PE is one of the most unlikable subject among teens; they experince trauma from bullying, some are forced to do activites above their abilities, and the key thing is - everyone is diffrent but the system grades them the same. Authorites probably want good by forcing to exercise, however they should focus on minimalising study hours or how to adjust them to everyone. On the other hand, those 3 PEs per week might be the only form of activity they get durning a week. Nowadays we can assume that this is true, yet shaming pupils for that create a possibilty that in the future they will develope disgust to any kind of physical movement. That is why, as a society we should show more appeling side of sport so that we don't have to force them to participate in those lessons. All in all this statement has two sides - good one and a bad one. Idealy students will be in shape including those for whom sport at school is the only form of activites. Neverthless individuals who aren't keen on doing sport might get traumatised and never 'touch' it again. |
Should computers and tablets completely replace books in schools and universities? Write an **essay** giving your opinion. | Nowadays more and more people use electronic devices when they study. It helps them improve their learning ability and increase motivation. In my opinion, computers and tables can replace books in schools and univeristy. Firstly, children are grow up with electronic devices which become natural environment of their grow up. As a result books are for them oldfashion and boring. They want have everything now. What's more, they hate reading. They would rather watch films on the internet than reading books. Secondly, using computers or tablets help to reduce amount of books in children's bag. What's more, this situation helps protect environment by avoid deforestation. On the other hand, books help student develop their attention span. They have to focus on the topic more than 5 minutes. Next, to find true information for homework is better to use books, because on the Inetrent students can find fake news. To sum up, in the close future all schools and univeristy are able to use comuters or tablets instead of books. It is more useful, convinient and more attractive for students. |

Last week, you went to a music concert. Now you are writing a letter to an English-speaking friend. Explain why you decided to go to the concert, give some information about who was performing, and describe what happened at the concert. | Hi Josh, Thank yu for your last letter. How are you? I hope you're well. As you know, last year we couldn't attend any music event because of the global pandemic. Fortunately, we all were vaccinated in January and everything have been going back to normal. That's why yesterday I decided to go to a Madonna concert. I am a big fan of hers and I always wanted to see her live. The tickets were absurdly expensive, but it was a good value for money- she was brilliant.

In my opinion parents should check if a particular game is suitable for their children. It is easy to find a game with a lot of violence or improper content that shouldn't be displayed by children. On the other hand, some of the games may have very positive impact on the children. They develop creativity. I believe that playing games may be more beneficial than wathich TV programmes. I think that games producers should clearly categorize their games, so it wouldn't be difficult to decide is it proper for the children. |
Video games are very popular with children. However, some parents feel that video games can have a negative impact on their children, but others believe that they may have some positive effects. How do you feel about children playing video games? Give specific reasons and examples to support your opinion. | I truly hope that each parent has a right to raise their children the way they find appropriate. However, feelings and believes are not only difficult to articulate, but also very individualistic. Therefore, looking at what data tells us is crucial. Like any other other tool, video games can be put to good or bad use. For example, if young children play a game designed for teenagers, it will harm his psyche. That's because games can evoke strong emotions, and confroting them with a defenseless child is a bad idea. It can lead to anxiety or aggression in the long term. Another harmful way is to allow our childer to play unlimited amount of time. If there are no restrictions in place, child will play for the whole day. And sometimes even the night. In contrast, educational games are very useful and desired. We play video games bacause they are fun, and if we can make learning fun, the success is inevitable. To summarise my short asnwer, I'm for a reasonable and controlled use of video games. Not only for educational purposes, but also for pleasure. |
Some university students move away and live on their own while they are attending school, but others live at home with their family while they are students. Which do you think is a better choice? Give reasons to explain your answer. | Studying at the university is a challenging time for both parents and children. Very often children have to move from their parents because a university is in another city. Whereas children, who live in a big city, where they have the univeristy, decided to stay at home with parents. However, sometimes even if the university is in the same city, children prefer living without parents. In my view a better choice is to live without parents while children are attending university. First of all, this is an excellent opportunity to let children to mature. Children start to live on their own and they have to take responsibility for their decisions and choices. They can ask their parents for advice, obviously. But they have to dotted their I's. And another thing is a fact that, as we know, students'life is time when children get to know new friends. In ceoncequence, children want to invite new people to their house for instance to party. Therefore, it's more comfortable to invite them to their own house not to parents' house. Without a doubt, more enjoyable meeting is with age-mates. Novertheless, as we know there are two sides of every strony. In a results, living with parents during studying has positive side too. While children are students and live with their family, they needn't to worry about many things such as money. After all, not everybody needs to free house to invite many friends. In summary, I honestly believed that is better to move away during studying time. It's a start of new, independent, adult life. Everybody ought to have time to grow up ad mature. To me, the best time for that is studying time, exactly. |
Some university students move away and live on their own while they are attending school, but others live at home with their family while they are students. Which do you think is a better choice? Give reasons to explain your answer. | Studying at a university undoubtedly brings a lot of changes to people's lives. Some students even start to live on their own, while others stay with their family at home. In my huble opinion, both options have some advantages as well as drawbacks. On the one hand, by living on your own you can, without a doubt, obtain useful practical skills or expierence. Moreover, you, for sure, will become more adult and independent. What is more, moving out of your family home to other city might give you possibility to attend to more prestigious university. That may particulary concern students who live in small cities or on the countryside. On the other hand, staying at your family home is probably in all cases much less expensive than this other alternative, bacause you do not need to worry about the cost of accommodation. Additionally, unless you stay at home, it might be neccesary to take up a part-time job to earn some money in order to pay for your new house or for meals. Furthermore, some students might not feel comfortable in other city with lots of unfamiliar people and that might need support of their family. For them it may be more convienent not to move out. To top off, it seems to me that we all, sooner or later, will move out from our family house. For that reason, I believe that not staying at home is far better option, especially if you want to attend a university which is not situated in your town. |
Some university students move away and live on their own while they are attending school, but others live at home with their family while they are students. Which do you think is a better choice? Give reasons to explain your answer. | After graduating from high school studens have to make tough decisions. Maybe the toughest one is to choose an university. Is it better to stay in your hometown or maybe to move away? Young people face a lot of challenges. One of them might be adapting to new environment. If a student choose to stay in a hometown he would have support of his family. Not only mental support is important. Living in big city, where the best universities are located, is usually expensive. Cost of renting an apartment has rised significantly during the last decade. Moreover, cost of public transport should also be considered. Staying with the parents is much more cost-saving option. It allows students to make substantial savings, that will be crucial in their future lives. Whereas staying at home has a lot of advantages, it is not an ideal option. Moving to another city might be very developing for high school graduates. It allows students to make new friendships. It is also a space to test a responsibility. Some people call it 'the school of life'. I agree that it is a test of maturity and some young people need it. Another thing is that people in their twenties desire independence. Moving away to study is a great way to achieve it. To sum up, in my opinion moving away to another city to study is better option that to stay at home. However, I recommend visiting parents regularly. |
Some university students move away and live on their own while they are attending school, but others live at home with their family while they are students. Which do you think is a better choice? Give reasons to explain your answer. | Every student must make a decision to either move away and live on their own or live at home with their family while they are studying. I think that moving away from your parents is a better choice. Let's have a quick look why I think like this! Firs of all, by moving away from your parents you will have to do more things than just cleaning dishes. It is for sure good for you. You will also have to set your budget. Doing a mistake or not sticking with it might be crictal for you! So, managing your money wisely is a very important thing in an adult life. Further going, you will also have to do all the paperwork by yourself. There may not be any person to help you out with it. Additinaly, paying taxes is another activity which you will be supposed to do in the future. It sometimes might be tricky, but it's for sure really important and by doing so you will learn a lot. Also, you will have to find a house or an apartment on your own. It connects heavily with budget managment. All of things and activities which I mentioned above will help you get more mature and more prepared for you future life. Remember, that in the future no one will help out you with those thigns. |
Some university students move away and live on their own while they are attending school, but others live at home with their family while they are students. Which do you think is a better choice? Give reasons to explain your answer. | After graduating high school, students usually apply for university. Some of them decide to stay in their childhood houses, others move out to start on their own, alone. Which option is the better one? Firstly, students who choose to stay with their parents are faced with less resposibilities. This can be really helpful, considering amount of time one spends studying. Usually, parents pay for a living. The student does not have to work, therefore have more time to study. What is more, parents usually guarantee healthy food to eat. They cook, bake and make foods with healthy calories, which improves one's overall well being and condition. This way, the student's nourished brain works better and the student ends up with better grades. On the other hand, one's abilities to manage money or to learn responsibility drastically go down. That is because constantly living in comfort only leads to discomfort in the future life. Young people benefit from moving by learning a lot of practical skills which are later needed in the adulthood. Student who move after graduating become independent much faster. To sum up, opinions diverge. I personally believe people should learn independence as fast as they can - it will make their future life easier. |
Most medical doctors want to work in cities where they will make a lot of money. Yet in many rural areas there are not enough doctors. What are the reasons for this problem? How can it be solved? | Nowadays, minority of medical doctors want to work in cities which is not the perfect scenario for rural areas. Let's have a quick look why it is happening and how can it be solved. The most crucial reason for this is very simple. In cities, especially big cities they are able to make more money than in rural areas. Everyone wants to be paid good. Another thing which also matters is housing. It's a lot easier to rent an apartment or a house in city. Also they can get to theirs office faster, and as we all know time matters. Who would want to spend 2 hours of their day just to get to work? There are few things which can be done to solve or minimze this important problem. Firstly, we need to reduce the time which is required to get to a doctor. We can achieve it by upgrading our roads and making more roads for bicycles. This solution will help reduce the time spent at the doctor, as well as ,it will increase the number of pacients, which will boost their earnings. It also should create new opportunities for investors, which will build new housing for doctors and other people. Secondly, we need to show people that they don't have to wait few weeks just to get to a doctor. By choosing a medician from rural area they can heavily reduce the time, which they have to wait. It's good for both pacients and doctors. Everyone benefits from it. I think that my solutions are not enough to fix the problem mentioned above, but they should easily reduce it. |
You have had a class discussion on the importance of exercise. Now your teacher has asked you to write a composition answering the following question: _Exercise is important for our health, but are there things that are more important?_ Write your composition. | What can be more important than exercise? One needs an energy to be able to run, jump, or do yoga. Therefore, there are at least two more valuable components to our health: food and sleep. In 2017 the Noble prize in medicine has been granted to a team leaded by professor Rosbach. The team researched on circadian rhythm. Their discoveries resolved around sleep-wake cycle that is embeded into our cells. The research denotes that our bodies function better when we adhere to these patterns. Furthermore, it revealed that each and every organ of our body function according to a slightly different pattern. Therefore, it's not only important that we go to bed at a certain time, but also that we eat at a certain time. Generally speaking, people who sleep well tend to be more relaxed and less spiteful. By the same token, an appropriate amount of bed-time precludes the need for inordinate daily coffee intake. Than there is exercise; the third component of circadian rhythm. To be heatlhy means to feel tired in the evening and refreshed in the morning. Therefore, we should exercise at least 30 minutes a day to avert the effects of our sedentary life style. |
Would you like to live a long, calm life until 100 years old or would you prefer a shorter life but much more intense. Decide and explain your reasons. | From time to time we asked ourselves very deep and complex questions about our existence. One of such inquiries is whether we would like to life calmly for 100 years or rather shortly but more inrensely. I must admit that is extremely difficult conundrum, since both options have some positives as well as drawbacks. On the one hand, calm, long life seems very peaceful and I would not be taken aback if many people pick that possibility. After all most of us desire some small home with our beloved family members. Futhermore, everyone wants to delay their death as far as possible. These type of lifestyle undoubtedly will suit anyone who does not have enourmous ambitions. On the other hand, life mentioned above might be quite mundane and obviously we all want to take part in some kind of adventures occasionally. For me living intensely means having successful career, being well off and taking part in lot of enjoyable events with my friends and family. Having said that, I pretty sure that in general those are examples of most common life goals of any person. The only disadvanteg of this option is this short amount of time which we are given, but after some consideration I think that still the pros outweight the cons in this scenario. To top off, Although calm and long life seems quite convincing, it seems that I would prefer to live shortly byt much more intensely, because I do not want to lose any given opportunity or have any regrets at the end of my life. |
Would you like to live a long, calm life until 100 years old or would you prefer a shorter life but much more intense. Decide and explain your reasons. | Everyone is different. Everyone preffers different things, is keen on different things. Everyone differs. There are people who would prefer to live a long, calm life until 100 years old. But, there are also those, who would prefer a shorter life, but much more intense. When it comes to me, I would defienetly choose the first option. To be honest with you, I'm not really a social person at all. I do not like talking to people too much, hanging with them, or even texting with them. I am, what it's called today an introvert person. Don't get me wrong, I'm not against people who prefer to be partying and chilling with friends all the time. For me it's just a better option. Let me explain why! First of all, I would not enjoy dying in my early ages. I think that nobody would. You see, having a long life is pretty nice. When you are partying or doing those type of things, it's really easy to fell into a bad group, which will hustly ruin you. If you are not aware of it, you will probably start taking drugs as a teenager. Maybe it will be more intense, but I don't think that dying before your 30s is an enjoyable thing. Further going, when you live a long, calm life it is more likely that you will get more from it overall. It is way easier to travel, experience things, enjoy life and simply live, when you are not stuck to a bad 24/7. Sumarising, I think that living a long and a calm life is a better and safer option for all people. |
Some students choose to study in another country for a time during high school or university. What do you think are the advantages and disadvantages of studying abroad? | Studuing abroad is very popular these day. Many students decide to go abroad to high school or university. It's a fantastic way to make better your CV. However, it doesn't have only advantages, indeed. Neverthelles, as far as I can tell, I'm a person who would like to go to university abroad too. First of all, as I say, studying abroud is a very good way to make better your CV. Nowadays, many companies would rather take a person with foreign university than local. To my mind, that person can seem to be more bold, more self-assured, which are meaningful attributes for directors. Equally important is that studying abroad is a valuable life lesson. A student goes abroad on his own, so he or she had to take control of his life. There will be no one, of course, who will make things except him. It doesn't mean that he or she will be alone, obviusly. Studying abroad is a superb way to make new friends, of course, but friend won't make him dinner or clean his room. Atually, we have here another paramount advantage which is making new friends and explore the world. As we know, people who traveld the world are more open-minded than someone, who stay in one place all life. But on the other hand, studying abroud can be stressful. A student goes to a place where he didn't know anybody. It is a new place, new world for him. Another disadvantage could be a language problem. Sometimes student can have a big problem with undrestanding something, and of course, it makes him stressful, as I mentioned earlier. In summary, I honestly believe that there is more advantages than disadvantages. Due to, to my mind, students should studying abroad, if their have a chance. |
Some students choose to study in another country for a time during high school or university. What do you think are the advantages and disadvantages of studying abroad? | Studying abroad has became very popular among students in Europe. Results of the survey conducted by Cambridge University shows that experience of most of the student who went abroad is positive. But, are there really no disadvantages? Fisrtly, I will discuss pros of studying abroad. For sure, students who decide to study in another country are able to exerience living in a different culture. It may open them for another points of view. Secondly, students who are usually not wealthy can visit new places and not pay huge amount of money for that. They can also make new friendships with people with whom they wouldn't normally meet. But, for some students, it may be very difficult to find in new environment. For example, it would be hard to adapt for Iranian citizen in some of Western Europe big cities. Another thing is that level of education is very different among European countries. So, for some students it is better to stay in their country, where this level is comparably high. To summarize, I believe that studying abroad is beneficial for students. They should apply for going abroad if only they have a chance. |
Some students choose to study in another country for a time during high school or university. What do you think are the advantages and disadvantages of studying abroad? | It is always an adventure to travel to another coutry. Studying abroad is especially relevant, because you get to stay in one place for longer. That gives you the opportunity not only to taste, but also to know local people and their culture. Furthermore, you make friends while studying. And some friendships are very precious and may last for years. And there is also a chance for a romance, and meybe something even more serious. Another benefit odf studying abroad is learning the language. First hand experience can not possibly be replaced by even the best regular lessons. When you are exposed to language most of the time, you learn the best. On the other hand, you will far away from your home. That means not seeing your family and friends for an extended period of time. That may be even harder if you leave your boyfriend or girlfriend behind. New environment and culture may not be to your liking as well. There may be these little things that you'll miss. Like standing in the queue, hugging and kissing your colleagues, or even the products you might not be able to buy abroad. |
In some offices, employees work in enclosed workstations or cubicles. Other offices have a more open design, in which there are no walls separating employees from their coworkers. Which type of arrangement do you think is most effective? Explain, giving reasons to support your answer. | Offices tend to have two types of workstations for employees. In one of them workers are secluded from others, while in the second kind no walls separate them from themselves. As usually, these two situations have both some advantages as well as drawbacks. On the one hand, people might prepare to work in open workstations, bacause they are surrounded by other coworkers, who are likely their friends or acquaintances. That may lead to creation of pleasant atmosphere at work. For that reason employees might enjoy their work, which would result in being much more efficient. Furthermore, if someone had any difficulty with their work, then it would be hard to asked for help since other coworkers would be next to him. On the other hand, I must admit that there are some people who prefer to work on their own. Presence of other people might only disturb them, which would impact on their performance. Moreover, I strongly believe that enclosed workstations or cubicles are much more quiet, which also may enable employees to focus more on their work. To top off, it seems to me that answer to our main question depends on particular worker's personality. For employees who like to be surrounded by other people more suitable would be open workstation, whereas to people who can be describe as lone wolves it would be most optimal choice so they should work in enclosed workstations. |
In some offices, employees work in enclosed workstations or cubicles. Other offices have a more open design, in which there are no walls separating employees from their coworkers. Which type of arrangement do you think is most effective? Explain, giving reasons to support your answer. | Nowadays, every comapy has an office. Some of them decide to make enclosed workstations, while others, usually newer ones, don't even make walls separating employees from their coworkers. In my opinion, the shifting meta towards less enclosed offices is very good for workers. Just think about it. Everyone wants to work in place where there are no barriers between coworkers, no matter of the position in which they are. Everybody is easily acessable due to this. More importantly working in such place allows people to feel like they are in their own home. This way allows employees to feel less crowded and just more cozy. Further going, due to reduced stress, people are more efficient and they are more likely to do their tasks correctly. It is a perfect example of a win-win situation. Employers are happy because, workers are doing their work right and employees are happy, because they are not stressed at all. Unfortunately, as everything this way of arraging offices has some downsides, so it's not perfect of every office. Some jobs require from employees to be concecrated the entire day. They often have to be precised in thing which they are doing. It's for sure easier to achieve when you are in an enclosed, quiet workstation. |
In some offices, employees work in enclosed workstations or cubicles. Other offices have a more open design, in which there are no walls separating employees from their coworkers. Which type of arrangement do you think is most effective? Explain, giving reasons to support your answer. | Offices vary from each other mostly with designs and atmosphere surrouding the place. Do these two have any connection? Apparently, yes! People are herd animals - the work is more effective in the groups or pairs. Open space in the office have many benefits, one of them being people learning to be more cooperative and trustworthy. Coworkers can get to know each other better, which will benefit in the future. While working on important projects, workers have to join forces and brainstorm together. Without the previous socialization with one another, the work wouldn't be effective. No walls in the office is a fantastic idea from the psychological view, too. Workers do not feel confined by the small, almost claustrophobic cabines. It leads to a betterment of mental health and overall well-being of the employees. Interacting with others - from consulting and analyzing to telling jokes and spending time together - results only in positive effects. Happy employees equal quality work - that is why it is important to remember about the company's building desing. |
In some schools, students must study music and learn to play a musical instrument. In other schools, studying music may not be required or there may be no music classes at all. Do you think all students should have to study music? Support your opinion with reasons and examples. | Music had enormous impact on our lives throughtout history, therefore some people claim that it should be taught at school and even students should be obliged to learn to play a musical instrument. In my humble opinion that would not be beneficial to everyone, so such lessons ought not to be obligatory. It seems to me that the most crucial role of school cirruculum is to give children vast knowledge of most important subject like mathematics or biology. Having said that, I am not completely convinced that music is such a subject. I think that students choose to spend their time on other activities, which might turn out to be more useful to them. Futhermore, some people may not even like to learn playing a instrument. For that reason, they might start to perceive those music lessons as some type of chores and as a result they would learn very ineffectively. Moreover, no one would agrue that learning how to play a musical instrument correctly takes even years so again that would consume quite a large part of students' free time, which they might use in more beneficial way. To top off, I strongly believe that studing music ought not to be compulsory for everyone. I agree on the other hand that if some students want to attend additional music classess, then they should have this possibility. |
In some schools, students must study music and learn to play a musical instrument. In other schools, studying music may not be required or there may be no music classes at all. Do you think all students should have to study music? Support your opinion with reasons and examples. | Learning to play on instruments can be a wise way to spend your time - it improves memory and exercises your brain to focus better. Studying music, combinated with testing your abilities to play have quite a few positive outcomes. To start with, majority of students like to complain about lack of enthusiasm and action in schools, as well as no place to expand your creativity. What could be a better place than a music class? Music itself have power to form new passions or even relationships. Studies have shown listening and playing have amazingly surprising impact on one's brain. In a music class, when you meet new people and share your interest, you can not only make new friends, but also develop better understanding of how sound works. It can be useful for physics students! Moreover, having a music class in between other lessons can cause you to feel more focused after. After all, music class should be about discovering new genres, artists and instruments, which is not only developing for a brain, but also relaxing. With more stable and quiet state of mind students are proven to perform on other classes much better. Thirdly, learning to play new instruments can cause one to uncover new passion, which, in the future, can result in finding new job or just impressing potential partners with one's abilities. All in all, I think music classes are a perfect opportunity to try something new and come upon people sharing similar interests. Nonetheless, I understand how some of the students are against it, arguing they already don't have enough time for basic classes. My opinion is that the classes should be extracurricular, to actually gather people who want to learn new skills. |
Some high schools have a requirement that students must complete a certain amount of volunteer work in order to graduate. What do you think about this type of requirement? Give details to support your opinion. | Recently a lot of schols have been adapting new solutions in order to create possibilities for students to learn practical skills. Some of them allow pupils to do some voluntary work in time of classes. Is this a reasonable solution? It has became a subject which is discussed by newspapers and in TV programs. I will try to present reasons for and against in below essay. The main reaason that supports students volunteer work is that they can actually help in places where this kind of help is needed. I mean places like hospitals, shelters and hospices. There is always something more that could be done there. Each additional helping hand counts. Next reason is that student can gain extra experience by helping other people. I honestly believe that one can not learn such skills in school. In my opinion these skills may be very useful after graduation. Also, having volunteer work in your CV may be a factor that will decide about getting a job. Employers usually prefer candidates who have such experience. What about reasons against? I find a very few indeed. But, you can always say that students should not be forced to do volunteer job if they don't want to. I guess this supposed to be free decision of each person. Somebody forced is never a good employee. To summarize, in my opinion schools should allow students to help in hospitals, shelters etc. But, it always has to be a free decision of each pupil and his parents. |
Some high schools have a requirement that students must complete a certain amount of volunteer work in order to graduate. What do you think about this type of requirement? Give details to support your opinion. | A lot of high schools nowadays, requires from students to complete some volunteer activities. They are necessary in order to graduate. As everything, this strategy has upsides and downsides. In my opinion this type of requirement shouldn't exist and it's not good for students. There are few reasons why I think like that. First of all, everyone is different. Not everybody enjoys having relations with other people. I'm the kind of the person. It's terrible to force someone to do something that they don't want to. Just imagine a situation that you are forced to clean toilets after others - noone would want to do that and noone would enjoy it. It's that simple. Another reason why I think this type of practice is not optimal is that people which are forced to be a volunteer may not do theirs tasks correctly. If they do something wrong, they can cause some hard problems. In exmaple, this situation may happen when someone is helping an older person and they give them too many pills. It's probably lethal for this person. Not only they will be dead, but more importantly it will probably cause some serious mental illnesses for the volunteer. |
Your town council is thinking about banning the use of mobile phones on public transport and in shops and restaurants. Write a letter to the town council giving your opinion about this and why you think it is or is not a good idea. | Dear Sir or Madam, After seeing the information about plans to ban the use of mobile phones on public transport and in shops and restaurants, I am writing to give my opinion about this issue. You may have your reason to support your decision, however you should consider my opinion as there are many people like me who think exactly the same. First of all, I would like to know what is wrong with using mobile phones in public places like buses, shops or restaurant, because I can not find a reason wchich would be strong enough to ban them in all those places. Furthermore, it can cause many troubles for people who will need phones in bus to for example call an ambulance or police. I strongly believe that most people do not like to waste time during traveling in public transport and they use this time to read somthing interesting on the internet or to communicate with family and friends. Therefore, once you ban using of mobile phones you will make that this time will be unproductive for them. Additionaly, we use our phones to make a shopping list, make a photo of delicious meal which we ordered in restaurant to write a review on the internet. In conclusion, my friends, my family and I think that this idea will not bring any good benefits to our life, furthermore it may make our life more difficult. I hope to hear that you give up this idea. Yours faithfully, Karol |
Your town council is thinking about banning the use of mobile phones on public transport and in shops and restaurants. Write a letter to the town council giving your opinion about this and why you think it is or is not a good idea. | Dear Sir or Madam, I recently heard about your latest idea of banning the use of mobile phones on public transport, shops and restaurants. I would like to share with you my opinion about it. It is a good idea to be honest. In today's world we experience the problem with excessive addiction to our mobile devices. We use it everyday and for at least a few hours. When getting into a bus, tram or restaurant we can notice a lot of people stareing at the screens of their devices. It is a common problem. doing that we not only lose our concentration but we even lose the ability to talk with other people. It can make us socialy anxious. Banning the use of mobile phones in public can prevent us from all sorts of mental illnesses. What is more, we would finally end the recent fashion with posting pictures of food on instagram. I hate when people do it. I still can't understand what might be the purpose of doing things like that. I am very pleased that this horrible fashion is eventually going to an and. And actually I don't know what to write now. I know I can write what I want but in this particular email I can't find more arguments. So basically I will write whatever comes to my mind. |
Your town council is thinking about banning the use of mobile phones on public transport and in shops and restaurants. Write a letter to the town council giving your opinion about this and why you think it is or is not a good idea. | Dear town council I am writing in connection with your idea of banning the use of mobile phones on public transport and in shops and restaurants. I would like to point out a few issues that I have with the solution you have created. I reckon that this amendment could have a bad impact on youger part of our society as well as on the other part of residences of our city. Nowadays phones are very crucial in our lives, therefore banning the use of them can discourage people from using public transport, moreover shopping market can go into reccesion, because people would be more willing to buy things via the Internet, without supporting local bussinesses which can lead to their bankruptcy. On the other hand, I support banning use of mobile phones in restaurants. I find that capability to talk to each other without using mobile phones might increase integration of the people between them. I wish that could be truth and that neighbours could have better relations with themselves. Furthermore, mobile phones are unreplecable in case of emergency. To conclude, I believe you will make a good decision and I hope that you are going to make more research prior passing this law. Even though I cannot agree with your idea, I am sure that with a few improvements it can be considered as a good move of our authorities. Yours faithfully |
Your town council is thinking about banning the use of mobile phones on public transport and in shops and restaurants. Write a letter to the town council giving your opinion about this and why you think it is or is not a good idea. | Dear Sir/Madam I would like to share with you my thoughts about town council's plan of banning mobile phones in public places like shops and restaurants. In my humble opinion such proporsal has much more drawbacks than positive aspects. I am aware of the fact that nowadays people lifestyle rely on mobile phones and this is indisputable that in some cases we very clearly overuse them. Therefore some poeple claim that this may leads to pretty serious consequences like inability to understand social interactions. It seems to me that this is rather extremely rare situations so that I believe we should not count it as a solid reason to implement above mentioned ban. There are also opinions that using mobile phones can disturb other passengers on buses or clients in restaurants and shops. Undoubtly we could find examples of such situations but I think it is too much generalisations. I strongly believe that most people know how to behave in a way that does not hassle other human beings, even if they acquire mobile phone. In summary I do not find that there are any sufficient reason to claim that ban on mobile phones in public places is necessary. Some people might dislike modern devices, but it is still not enough to limit liberty of others. We should live according to the rule live and let live. |
Your town council is thinking about banning the use of mobile phones on public transport and in shops and restaurants. Write a letter to the town council giving your opinion about this and why you think it is or is not a good idea. | Dear Sir/Madam! I have a distinct pleasure to write this letter in an intent to express my insight concerning the ban on mobile phones on public transportation and public places. Being a middle-aged woman, I am in a place where attachment to material possession has already faded away. Due to my perseverance in self-improvement and investment in my education, I broadened my perspective to the point of being able to shift dramatically from materialistic to spiritual. This spiritual awakening enabled me to become successful in determining the right and wrong aspects of human activity. Never have I been more convinced of the detrimental effects of mobile phones on human well-being than nowadays, when our society faces the unprecedented spike in mental health issues, single-person households, divorce rates, addictions, broken homes, and suicide rates, not to mention security concerns related to mental exhaustion that stems from overuse of mobile technology. Along these lines, a national inquiry into effects of mobile phones on toddlers aged one to three years old carried out in 2006 by the National Institute of Science reveals that pupils engaged in an online activity for more than two hours a day demonstrate shorter brain wawes compared to their counterparts who were not exposed to such stimulation. Additionally, the first group reports augmented self-esteem and academic achievement. For this reason, I urge you to implement the prohibition on mobile devices in public facilities. Should any additional detail be required, I would be delighted to provide more information backed by in-depth scientific insights to support my theory. Yours faithfully Maddalena |
Your town council is thinking about banning the use of mobile phones on public transport and in shops and restaurants. Write a letter to the town council giving your opinion about this and why you think it is or is not a good idea. | Dear Sir or Madam, I am writing with regard to the possibility that the use of mobile phones on public transport and in shops, and restaurants wil be banned by the town council. As a citizen of this town I would like to give my opinion on this matter and give my arguments against this regulations. First of all, banning the use of mobile phones on public transport is not so good an idea. Some people have time to talk only when they communte. What is more, our town is a really popular place for tourists. I am afraid that this ban will negatively affect our town's economy. As I have been talking with another citizens, they all agree that banning the use of mobile phones in shops is a very bad idea. Some pople are very indecesive and they need help to choose the right products. Usually, there is not enought staff in the shop so, as a result, they phone their relatives or friends. Banning the use of phones in shops will also negatively affect the economy. Finally, I do not agree on banning the usage of phones in restaurants as recently there has been a massive interest in food blogging. More and more people film their food and earn money because of it. Our town is famous for its restaurants that are friendly for bloggers, YouTubers, and other influencers. I strongly believe that banning the use of mobile phones is not a good idea. Overall, it will not only badly affect our economy, but it will also have a negative impact on the citizens' happiness. Yours faithfully, XYZ |
Your town council is thinking about banning the use of mobile phones on public transport and in shops and restaurants. Write a letter to the town council giving your opinion about this and why you think it is or is not a good idea. | Dear Sir or Madam, I am writing this letter in responce to recently published proposal of banning use of mobile phones in public settings and I would like to express my disapproval of the above proposal. It came to my attention that public transport, shops and restrautns will be mainly affected by this newly created idea. To begin with, I would massively appriciate if the Councli would like to cast a bit more light for us on why they are thinking this would be a good move. A far as I am concerned, none of the reasons we have been presented with were supported by any scientific evidence. Therefore, I am demanding town Council to present public with their backed up by science agruments. Moreover, nither I nor anyone in my family had been ever approch and ask to give our own opinion about the topic. Should not be our local representatives more in touch with their people when it comes to making such a drastic changes in our lives? Do you think, this is the righ way to treat your citizens? Well, I must strongly disagree with you, then. And finally to sum it up, I would like to propose to organize another meeting where everyone who might be affected by those changes was able to express their views. |

What is your favourite place on the old city in our capitol, Billal? At 12.00 we could heard Warsaw anthem from tower clock Kings' Castle. I recorded, if you want I can sent you this inredible video. I heard almost anthem in Cracov when we visited this city last year. Sounds great! At 2 p.m. our teacher organized an appointment with non goverment organization - Polish Foundation of Schuman. Volunteers told us about many projects, events and happenings, for example: Schuman Parade. I love this event! I have been in Schuman Parade a lot of times, I met many proeuropean young people. We discussed about future of European Union, Polish place and position in EU. What do you think about the future of EU, Billal? Are you thinking that EU should more united and new countries have acces or not? Returning to my trip to Warsaw. After an appoinment wit NGO's we had a lunch.
