Task 4

Nowadays, quality in the work or school is important, so some people think that a sense of competition in children should be encouraged. Others believe that children who are taught to cooperate rather than compete become more useful adults. Now I will discuss both these views and I will give my opinion.

First of all, you can compete with other people by give the winner prizes or certificates and that has advantages like the winner will feel good and that motivates them to work harder in the future. For example, in my college teachers put new ideas on the portal and that motivates students to spend more time in the library to have more knowledge about the new idea. On the other hand, the loser will feel sad, maybe because they have tried to do their best but did not win.

What is more, working in groups to do projects, report or presentations have both advantages and disadvantages. One advantage is that, you can share the work, so everyone will focus on his part and try to do his best. Another advantage is you will have more ideas and that higher the quality of the work. On the other hand, cooperation has disadvantages like one person in the group does the work and others just write their names.

To sum up, in my opinion, competition and cooperation together will help you to have more ideas and more time to focus in your part and that will improve the quality of the work.  

    

Task 3

Nowadays, the numbers of obese people are increasing and that relates to different reasons. In this essay I will discuss the difference between balanced meals and healthy life, and I will give my opinion.

First of all, eating balanced meals gives the need for your body like protein, vitamins and carbohydrates. That gives you the energy to do your work, also it's necessary for you to grow and keep your body functions.

What is more, having balanced meals is healthy, but not too much, because your weight will increase. Additionally, having balanced meals only is not enough, so you have to do exercise like walking on the beach or doing some exercise in the gym.

Moreover, to have a healthy life you have to avoid smoking and drugs because it's not healthy for you and you can face some of the diseases. Also, you have to avoid sweets, junk foods and soft drinks because it helps to increase your weight.

To sum up, having a balanced meals and doing exercise and avoid unhealthy food is the right way to get a healthy life. So, I agree with the statement although there are other factors which must be considered such as not smoking and doing exercise.

Task 2

The graph shows the different reasons for study among students of different age groups and the amount of support they received from employers.

First of all, 80 students who are under 26 study for their career, but 10 students from the same age group study for their interest. What is more, according to the graph, the number of students who study for their career decreases while the age increases. On the another hand, the students who study for their interest is directly proportional with the age group, so the number of students increases while the age increases.

Moreover, the employer support is inversely proportional with the age group, so when the age increases the student number decreases.

First of all, the highest sale was on Friday for dinner at 4,350 $ and the lowest sale was on Saturday for lunch at 1,950 $.

However, nowadays the majority of people continuing their education after school and there is a lot of colleges and number of major and now I will discuss the advantages and disadvantages and I will gave my opinion.

v Provide graduation with skills needed in the workplace or thy knowledge for its own sake

Nowadays, some universities focus in increasing knowledge for their students, however, other universities provides graduates with the skills needed in the workplace. Now I will discuss the right function of a university and I will give my opinion.

Task 4

Nowadays a lot of people are influenced by media like TV, news, computers and social networks. Now I will discuss what is more influential, the media or the religion and culture and tradition.

First of all, children and young people are influenced more by their parents and brothers because they copy what they are doing without knowing if this thing is true or false. Moreover, when children join school they start to make friends of the same age, so they play together and study together and try to copy what older students do. For example when some children see some older student smoke at school they try to do the same thing to show others that they became older, then they show their friend and that impacts on their friends.

What is more, when children become teenagers they start to use computers and social network to communicate with their friends or to make new friends or to read about different culture and tradition. Some of these topics have been grabbing the attention of the young men and affect them because there are some pictures or video clips affecting them.

In conclusion, the media today has more benefits than disadvantages, depending on how we use it so; we must educate children about right and wrong things with knowledge of the reason for it. Also children have to be able to differentiate between them in the future.
