Q1. Write a compare and contrast paragraph on any two products of your choice.

COMPARE AND CONTRAST

(DSLR / DIGITAL CAMERA)
PARAGRAPGH:
The two types of cameras commonly seen on the market are the DSLR and digital camera and
each has its own features and uses. DSLR is 10 times heavier and expensive than digital camera
which give clear edge to digital camera and if talk about image quality in low light then DSLR is
ahead of digital camera because DSLR capture clear image even in darkest area, whereas, digital
camera lags in low light and can't capture clear image without flash. Digital camera is manageable
in most of the situation, on the other hand, DSLR can't manage in most of the situation because of
its heavy structure. Coming to the picture quality of both cameras, DSLR has high mega pixels
(resolution of image) than digital camera because digital camera don't support high iso level. you
will be surprised to know that digital camera's focus is more accurate than DSLR because DSLR
is highly depend on its lens focus system and surprisingly both, DSLR and digital camera have
auto and manual features, most of the people didn’t aware of that digital camera has manual feature
too, nonetheless, its highly depend on people's need that what kind of camera do they need and
they purchase according to their needs and uses, some loves DSLR and some digital camera, so,
there is no good or bad it’s all depends on choices.

Q2. What did you learn from the practice of free writing? Share your thoughts in form of
paragraph.

PARAGRAPGH:
Free writing has improved my English a lot, I have always been weak in English whether its for
speaking or writing but since I start free writing, I can see visible changes and improvement in my
English skills, now I can write bit fluently with clear mind. It has gained my confidence in writing
long paragraphs without much confusion and I think this was expected because whenever you keep
on doing something then it definitely makes you better and same goes for free writing, because in
that, all you need to do is write. I have made my mind that I won’t stop free writing until unless I
am fully improved.

Q3. Write an email to alx@gmail.com, in the email discuss how social media freedom is
Destroying peace these days and what should be done to prevent/control it.

To: alx@gmail.com
Subject: Disadvantages of social media freedom, possibilities to control it.

Greetings.

I hope you are doing well. Yesterday, I saw a post on Facebook in that someone saying they can
say whatever they want and post whatever they want and no one can do anything to them. I was
utterly shocked after seeing these kind of things on social media, people are just misusing these
social apps and I think someone has to step up to look into this because it’s not a small thing, there
should be some kind of cyber restrictions on these keyboard warriors otherwise they will keen to
destroying things like as they’re doing right now.
I hope to get a positive response from you, regarding this issue, and let me know that are real
possibilities to prevent it.

Best regards,
Muhammad Faraz.

Q7. Write a blog on “money”

A BLOG ON MONEY
Money can't buy happiness, but it may buy you and your loved ones security and safety. Human
beings require money to pay for all of the necessities of existence, such as housing, food, medical
costs, and a good education. To pay for these items, you don't have to be Bill Gates or have a lot
of money, but you will need some money till the day you die. Because money is required to buy
the goods and services that you require to survive, you must have a basic understanding of personal
finance.
One of the reasons why so many people claim to be unconcerned about money is since it
has been called "the root of all evil." True, materialistic people might be driven to perform evil
things for financial gain by their concern with money. Money, on the other hand, is merely a
medium of transaction. Now i will discuss few benefits and downsides of money.

BENEFITS OF MONEY:
There are many major benefits of money including the following:

1. YOU HAVE MORE FLEXIBILITY WHEN YOU HAVE MONEY;

You can live anywhere you choose, take care of your necessities, and pursue your education when
you have enough money. You'll have even more freedom since you'll be able to do whatever you
want with your time if you can become financially independent and have the financial resources
to live on without working.
2. MONEY GIVES YOU THE ABILITY TO ACHIEVE YOUR GOALS;
Money allows you to establish a business, purchase a dream home, pay for the costs of raising a
family, and achieve other goals that you believe would help you live a better life.

DOWNSIDES OF MONEY:
Of course, there are some definite downsides of money too, including:

1. MONEY OBSESSION, OR A LOVE OF MONEY, CAN LEAD TO MANY ISSUES;

Striving to get money at any cost, or always trying to get as much money as possible, can lead to
unethical or even criminal actions, such as theft or deception. If you place too much emphasis on
money or material possessions at the expense of other people and things in your life, it may cause
problems for you and your family. You're unlikely to be happy if all you have is money but no one
to spend your life with and nothing to enjoy.

2. MONEY CAN CAUSE ARGUMENTS;

When you and your partner or family members differ about how money should be spent, it can
produce a lot of problem in your life. Money is, in fact, one of the major causes of divorce in
Pakistan
