Writing task 1
Oil resource doesn’t equally divide over the world. The area that has most oil resource is Middle east. With more than
half of world oil resource ( 56.52%). Following the information in the chart, we can see that althougt Asia and united state
are two biggest area. But their oil resouce held a very small amont compare with the middle east. Its like middle east and
the resst of the world. But in the other hand, middle east oil consumtion doesn’t as many as their oil resouce held. Asia and
united state, western europe have the most oil consumtion percentage compare to other area. This because middle east
don’t have much population. And their economy is depend on selling oil resource. Asia and united state america have a lot
of residents, and oil resource are very important to them. They use it for car, boat, and many vehicle that need oil. So they
have to buy oil resource from middle east.
Writing task 2
** All countries today have young people showing no respect for the older people. Respecting the older people has always
been the right thing to do. And lately young people have shown no interest in showing respect to the older people. The older
people are the ones who lay the foundation for the lives of our youth. We cannot disrespect the older people. Because that
is not good, it is not grateful to the older people. and when we get old and see something like this, we will see the sadness
that old people experience when we treat them with disrespect. We will have to face the thing that we used to do
** The reason why this happens may be due to the way adults teach children. They do not tell the children the importance
of respecting the older people. So the children will have no respect for the elders. Some other reasons are due to old
people's behavior that makes young people uncomfortable. So the fact that they act disrespectfully towards the older people
is also partly due to the older people.
** Things like this can throw society off balance. Young people will not be able to understand the value of old people. And
as young people get older they will see the same thing again. A new loop is started. And this loop will be worse than the
previous one. Gradually the elderly will no longer have any value in society, and will be treated badly
