a) Research has shown that when people read, they become better writers. This
is because readers use the sentence structures and ideas that they read in
their essays. Thus, they are able to state their thoughts clearly and write
better essays than their friends who do not read.
b) Besides, students can also save money by cooking their own food as eating
out can be costly. They should not spend too much time outside the campus

find some of them kind while others impolite and not very courteous.
d) They are often exposed to dangers such as rape, snatch theft and other forms
of attacks.
