The environment has become a topic of problems in matters over several decades. Everyone
is worried about this problem; however not everyone can deal with it. Therefore, the
government should take care various responsibilities for the fallowing reasons.
Firstly, polluting factories emit gases in our air or throw dangerous materials to our rivers.
People should grow plants in their homes, rooms, and colonies. There are advantages over
growing trees, for example, most of the polluted gases taken by the trees and release oxygen.
Secondly, the government should financially support people who want to fight for the health
of our planet because many people are willing to help but their financial condition does not
allow.
Thirdly, we should teach the next generation how to live so that they would not pollute the
earth. We must hope to the next generations that they will come up with a system that will
save the earth.
In conclusion, the government can help face environmental problems but it depends on us
what will happen next.

What can be done with obesity in schoolchildren ?

Nowadays, obesity, especially in schools is one of the biggest problems of modern society.
With the accessibility to sweets and fast food, children are getting obese. This is unhealthy,
and shortens their life expectancy. Government is expected to do something, but what can it
do ? The two best choices are sports facilities and legislation. Thesis statement
Firstly, the government can build sports centers in schools. That way, children can exercise
and keep being fit…….. EXAMPLEs:

Secondly, the government can also create new legislation, to limit the amount of junk food
eaten by younger people. It can be done by setting new taxes for fast food, or limiting the
amount of fat in junk food. That way fast food isn't banned entirely, but the consumption is
reduced, and as a result the production is also reduce, which makes the food not profitable
anymore.
So, which option is better ? On one hand keeping the children fit is good, but the cost of
building and maintaining these centers will be high’ On the other hand new legislation will be
met with complaints and may not be passed through the parliament. I think that the
legislations option would be better, because finding money in the budget will be difficult.

A day at the zoo.


Yesterday, I went to the zoo for a school trip. That zoo
was pretty big. There were a lot of animals. You can
think that this trip was kinda typical, but it was
unforgettable.
The tour guide let us came into a cage with goats.
Everything would be fine, unless I and my friend were
closed in the cage. That was crazy, because goats aren’t
dangerous. We were safe, but our teacher was very
scared.
I think that was amazing experience, and I will never
forget my teachers face when she saw us from the front
of this cage.

What to take into consideration when choosing a career ?

Choosing a career is a very important step in life. Depending on what job you choose, the
qualifications you get will be vary. Qualifications are going to be important when you will be looking
for other job. There are (many) choices to take into consideration when making that important
decision such as/ (including) INCOME and job satisfaction.
The first thing many people think of when choosing a new job is probably INCOME. When you don't
EARN enough money, you cannot afford paying the bills and taxes. Money also can improve your life
standard and diet. On the other hand, jobs that earn the most money require the most qualifications,
and also higher education and training which are usually expensive.
Secondly, what one should consider when choosing a career is job satisfaction.. Apart from making
money, one should enjoy his job. Treating career as a punishment will lead to worsened efficiency,
which in turn costs one losing job. ON THE OTHER HAND, JOB Satisfaction can lead to one’s mental
health.
In my opinion, job satisfaction is a more important issue / aspect to take into consideration when
choosing a job. Your enjoyment of a job will increase the likelihood of promotion. Mental health is
better than material goods.

Apart from money making one should also enjoy his job, because treating it as a punishment will
worsen one’s efficiency and can make one fired.

Young people today spend too much of their free time playing video games.
Do you agree?

Some claim that schools are responsible for teaching many skills to children. Some of these skills
include knowing how to be fit and healthy. As such I agree that schools should teach children the
mentioned skills.
To begin with, in school there physical education classes

Secondly, school force children to exercise regularly .

Lastly,

It's true that there are people who spend all their free time playing games. In my opinion, people
don't spend too time playing computer games-for three main reasons.
First of all/ to begin with , there are the things that games can teach us. So learning English, for
example, playing English helped me a lot in getting to know new words and interesting expressions.
However that is not all what games teach us; for instance creativity, teamwork are among other
things that one can learn.
Secondly, most of my friends spend some of their free time playing games, for example to de-stress or
have a good time playing together with friends. In addition, sitting too much in front of the computer
can cause obesity, back problems or eye problems.
Lastly, some people make money through so-called gaming. For instance,
In conclusion,, it’s true that many young people complain about these ailments. However, it depends
on them whether they want to spend most of their time in front of the computer, play sports, or do a
few exercises every now and then.
I think friends should have similar characters. This is because they will at least think the same in
different situations. For example ?
In my opinion it is best to have one friend because if you have more than one friend they will talk to
anyone about your private life. For example ?

To sum up, I think it is best to have one friend that you can trust and you can tell him everything, and
the friend should have a similar character.

Uses of abandoned public buildings


Abandoned buildings in cities are becoming a more common sight as time goes on. In addition, houses
in rural areas are more becoming more popular, and as a result, the cost of renting in cities is rising.
That's why buildings are no longer in use. There are many possible uses of them, such as making them
into new building or demolishing them.
The first choice that comes to mind is to simply demolish them. That way we make place for new
buildings and also solve the problem of smog in the cities. Furthermore, removing these buildings
would help air flow around the city and prevent formation of smog. On the other hand, removing this
building removes potential living space for other residents. In addition, due to high cost of renting,
more people have to reside together in order to share the cost which then an cause overpopulation of
this area.
The second choice is to convert these buildings into flats. Abandoned buildings are usually in a good
shape, thus it would only require remodelling of the inside, to make the building a potential flat. That
way we can solve the problem of overpopulation in the cities. The other side of the coin, is that
renovating old buildings is very expensive. Even if the building is structurally in a good shape, the
interior has to be fitted with electrics and hydraulics.
So, what is the better choice ? I think that converting these buildings into flats would be a better idea,
because overpopulation is a serious issue, and building new buildings would cost more to complete.

Nowadays we can see a lot of TV advertisements encouraging to eat fast food and sweats. The
problem with eating junk food is big. In my opinion, ads on junk should be banned for three reasons.

Firstly, people consume too much junk food, which has negative effects on their health. Junk food
such as burgers or chocolate is too fatty, and unhealthy as it contains a lot of sugar. Eating such diet
leads to obesity and many other health problems. However, eating junk food occasionally is not that
harmful for our health. To sum up, having a poor diet could lead to obesity which is encouraged by
fast- food industry.

Secondly, advertising junk food on TV has a strong harmful effect especially on children who don’t
know about bad health effects. For instance/ for example, ……
. Colorful and amusing ads with entertaining music persuade them ….

Furthermore, there should be public report on TV to encourage healthy eating. People, especially
children, should be educated about the impact of unhealthy food on health.

In conclusion……

In my opinion, the internet is the best source of information because we will find there everything we
need such as weather information, and the outcome of the match. Not only young people use the
Internet to check information.For instance my mother looks at different information on the Internet
every now and then.
Although we search information on the internet , there are other source of information ; for instance
books and library . We'll find news there, but not as much as on the Internet. In my opinion, the
Internet is the best source of information we can find everything we need there

How can workplaces be made more people -friendly ?

Quality of work mainly depends on how comfortable the workplace is. When your workplace
is uncomfortable, you can not focus, and as a result your job is done worse. On the other hand, too
comfortable workplace causes you to be relaxed and lazy, which also worsens your quality of work.
So, what should be the balance in comfort?
To begin with, A very simple way to make the workplace more people friendly, is to add windows,
proper lighting and air conditioning. Fresh air helps with thinking, and good lighting also is a way to
improve people friendliness of the workplace. The lighting should be in hot colours, because white
light damages eyes. Air conditioning also helps when the weather is hot.
In addition, many workers prefer to have their break rooms decorated with plants and posters are
motivational and inspiring. Decorations at workplaces boost employees morale and break rooms give
employees a place to relax. In the breakrooms there should be enough space people to occasionally
socialize and meet
In conclusion, these are the most effective ways to make workplaces more people friendly. Exercises
and breaks are also important in this process, but I think decorations, lights and ventilation are more
important. Higher productivity

Opinions about video games are very different/vary. Some people claim that they are just addictive
and time-wasters. Others believe that playing computer game is very entertaining and informative.
Although there is no agreement on that, I believe that young people spend too much of their time
playing computer games.
In my opinion games are great opportunity to train your English, because many games
are only in English. Furthermore, many games have educational aspects. One can learn about history,
math, physics and other subjects. As a result, teenagers tend to spend too much time on playing
games.

Another aspect of games additions is that you people do not make time to exercise. The lack of move
leads to obesity.I think that doing exercise is a solution. Football, volleyball, basketball is
a great addition to playing games.

Lastly , Games also gives one a chance to meet people with similar hobby. From my experience , I've
met a lot of great people online. ( example: form my experience , for instance )

In summery playing game has advantages and disadvantages. I agree that young people
spend too much of their time playing computer games, but they are not and you
can learn many things from them

How could the government help with environmental problems ?

Environmental change has recently become one of biggest threats to humanity. People are
protesting against carbon dioxide emission and demant governments to deal with the problems. But
what could the governments do to help with environmental problems ?
To relieve / Alleviate
Near area= nearby
To minimize or make less/ reduce / lesson/ diminish
To begin with, The biggest environmental problem is pollution. The contamination of water and air
cause sickness and poisoning of people living nearby. Governments could enforce policy to laws so
that companies are obliged to limit CO2 emission, and stop sewage dumping into rivers and lakes.
Policy and laws
Force/ enforce
Secondly, solving major environmental problems has an enormous cost . In order to save the
environments governments around the globe should unite and work towards a common goal : saving
humanity. No entity in private sector would contribute to the cost associated with reducing
environmental problems.
Lastly, Nuclear fallout is also one of the biggest threats to the environment and humanity. The
possibility of nuclear weapons destroying earth is terrifying. What governments could do is to dispose
of nuclear missiles or promise not to use them.
In conclusion, governments can help with environment, but it would require that governments play a
bigger role and politicians to take matters seriously.

I agree with the statement that young people spend too much time in front of the screen for three
main reasons.
however, we can learn a lot from games, for example, practice the language and meet many people

first of all , schools are starting to create video game-style activities to make the activities more
rewarding and to attract young people. Furthermore, because we play game we are able meet new
people with whom we communicate in different languages. In addition, games teach cooperation with
other people, and everyone strives for one goal. That's why I believe that we can learn a lot from
games.

On the other hand people sometimes spend too much time playing games ,and as a result they forget to
do exercises.Young people spend many hours sitting and playing games and as a result they are in poor
physical condition. If they want to play for hours, they should remember about doing physical activity.

In conclusion playing video games isn’t as bad as it seems to be. Playing games is good way to gain new
skills and friends.
