To start with, the room was not at all as we had been promised. It was not only dirty and untidy but also lacked any natural view. Worse, we couldn’t even enjoy sleeping for the whole stay due to the unbearable noise coming from the main street. Add to this, though we had been assured that food would be varied and luscious, it was honestly inedible. Once, wo were served such a disgusting dinner that my son got terribly sick and I had to take him to the doctor, costing me dearly. Last but not least, the advertised schedule of our vacation in your brochure was a big lie. On the one side, we were offered a very old coach that broke down more than once making us wait for repairing in the blistering heat of summer and you may imagine what happened to our skin. On the other side, the guide was a real jerk who did nothing for us but asking for tips. Thope you agree that our vacation did not reach our expectations at all. I, hereby, look forward to receiving a convenient compensation; otherwise I'll feel free to take the case to the court With Regards, ; 3 Holidaying - A Letter of recommendation Dear Tom, T heard you were planning to go on holiday but still hesitating about your destination, I’ve just come back from the best 7-day vacation I've ever spent in my whole life (at hotel in place).

Beside all that, while we're travelling, we're nourishing our knowledge and our culture because journeys make us capable to learn more about one country’s traditions, culture, and habits, Margaret Mead said “As the traveler who has once been from home is wiser than he who has never left his own doorstep, so a knowledge of one other culture should sharpen our ability to scrutinize more steadily, wu In nei Br a |, to 5a like what Mark ail ~ fromthe safe 7a ob Qn: harbor.

Suggested Essavs 1. Out-of school children / School Drop-outs (solutions) Dropping out of school is a setious problem in the world, especially in poor and developing countries. Each year, in Morocco alone, nearly 200,000 children leave school before completing their primary education. So, undoubtedly, some measures to reduce the number of students who withdraw from school must be urgently offered. Researchers and government officials largely attribute the phenomenon to the ignorance of poor parents who do not realise the importance of education. Some parents, for example, withdraw their children from school due to the competing demands for household income which often push children to work. Drop-out rates are higher among children of illiterate parents. These rates can be reduced if we sensitize parents about the importance of sending their children to school. ‘Teachers and headmasters are also responsible for implementing this plan. They have to assume their responsibilities to adapt the school systems so as to raise students” awareness to the negative consequences of dropping out To see the issue from another broader angle, it’s highly recommended that we do our best to solve the reasons behind this phenomenon, Citizens, charities and governments should all collaborate to provide poor families with the basic life necessities such as food, clothing and shelter in order to ensure that children would not be forced to quit school. ; ae who wants to drop out of school === Yes, I do agree with you that school can be sometimes hard. It’s a lot of work, and there are lots of rules that you may not like, But understand this - THE MORE YOU LEARN, THE MORE YOU EARN. Education is your key to financial security, and dropping out of school now will affect you for the rest of your Tife, It is a really bad idea, if things are bad at school because you are being harassed or bullied try changing schools rather than quitting. Besides, Drop outs have a harder time getting good, secure, decent paying jobs because more and more jobs require a minimum o f high school graduation.

It is everywhere, in both children and in adults. To overcome illiteracy, we have to approach the problem on different levels. We should start from the basic unit of society - the home. One of the best solutions to solving the stubborn problem of literacy is to teach parents to read, so that they can in turn teach th educated first, each generation will be able to read and write, since mothers are the first educators of children. The women will teach their children, both male and female, who will in tum teach their children, Besides, parents should be ittentive t9'the ledming needs of their children. It is not enough that our children. go fo school; we must support their ediicational development in every possible way. children. If the adult women are Governments in developing coutries, too, have to fully assume theif responsibilities to combat ‘literacy as well as other social hardships such as poverty, child labour and juvenile delinquency. Schools, books anid simple learning equipments should be provided everywhere in a nation. Free education has to be supported especially in distant poor areas. In other words, deprived families and regions should be offered equal leaming chances and opportunities. ‘Most important of all, rich and developing countries as well as international organizations like UNESCO, UNICEF and The World Bank are tasked to boost literacy in the developing world through low-interest loans, charity funds and mainly by sharing their espertise to develop education levels all over the world. 4. A speech of Philanthropy at school Distinguished guests! Ladies and gentlemen! It is my honour to be invited as a speaker in a charity event at this respectful school. It is a great pleasure for me to be here today. I would like to scize the opportunity to congratulate us on launching this outstanding fundraising campaign in which many people are involved. (Our donations in this year have amounted to 50, 000 dollars - the sum that will be endowed to poor families of our dear schoolmates. The money will be donated for medical care, education expenses, and indispensable life amenities. Our goal is to decrease the level of poverty. To achieve this noble goal, we have organized this Open Day. Iam honoured to thank all sponsors, organizations and private persons, who care for our needy siblings.

One can hardly imagine that all this may be possible in the first decade of the 21st century. We are living in the world that needs great changes. We are responsible for the future of the world as well. Our charity organization has been constantly working on fundraising. Our mutual efforts, our support - Together, we will fulfil our duty of cherishing every human life. In closing. I wish to thank all of you, our sponsors and donors, for your donations.

Moreover, Students don’t feel the necessity to travel or movelfar away from home for learning. Last but not least, virtual school reinforces reading skills and offers up-to-date references and books. It may also provide audio-visual caring aids such as clips, lectures, pictures and exam research papers. I personally think that virtual learning can prepare students for real professional career via training courses on the net in world that is becoming more and more digital and globalized. 6-\Virtual learning / Cons Nowadays, if niore than evident/that virtual learning is increasingly bécOming oae of the most citicial debated Controversial issues that may positively transform the educational sySteih all over the world. Yat, this-sySta still hides its own blemishes. First of all, if applicable a virtual course requires high budgets for computer, software programs, and the Internet connection, Such a fact may deprive poor families and even countries of the right of new educational tools which would be restricted and monopolized by the most industrialized nations. Moreover, at times virtual students may experience feelings of isolation or a sense of detachment from the real school due to the lack of face-to-face interaction — especially in self-paced courses — or difficulty in developing relationships with classmates. To cap it all, students will be required to be able to work unsupervised and they will have to problem solve solutions independently. So, unless they are self-motivated and disciplined to progress through their programme in a timely manner, success will be highly farfetched Generally speaking, virtual learning as a new and innovated method of schooling surely imports its benefits; but it wouldn't reach its pragmatic and realistic features overnight.

Technology - Pros ‘Technology has radically changed our lifestyles by leaps and bounds, It has made life very comfortable for us at various aspects and Jevels. To, Start with,-technology has, totally transformed the concept of distanceyand|improved our means of transportation. “Who had thought ih, the age of chariots that horses would-be replaced by “The Bullet? (World's fastest train in service)? Todaystime and distance are defeated by certain inventions like the car) the plane and the rocket allowing us to explore not only our space but also the outer space: Added to this, technology in commhunication has turned the globe into a small village thanks to modera iVentions such as cell phones, computers, internet and satellites. Now, you may find that you no longer have to dial a ten’ digit number to call someone; speed dialling on mobile phones saves you your precious time. Just 1 click and your letter travels across continents in 2.minutes rather than 2 weeks, ‘Most important of all, technology has made our life at home easier and better. No more wasting your money on music or movies. With just a click of a button you can have anything your restless heart desires. Even coffee makers are now so much more efficient, quick and easy to use for most people. We've got robots vacuuming our carpets and scrubbing our floors. Last but not least, thanks to the advancements in the ficld of medicine and health, doctors and researchers all over the world are working hard to introduce new medicines and treatments which can cure even the deadliest of diseases. Modem technology has been efficiently used to diagnose, detect and treat the tiniest particles of our bodies using cameras, scanners and x-rays. 2. Technology - Cons ‘There is no doubt that modem science and technology have made our life easier, better and more comfortable. Nevertheless, certain inventions have never been blemishless. of all, modem inventions and techniques are not for everyone, It’s only a rich man’s dream to fly a personal jet with all the latest gadgets fitted in it, Today, we feel technological advances are also widening the gap between the various classes of the society. I fear that this might cause unrest amongst the underprivileged or the less Privileged section of society and lead to more crimes and disparity ; Geet inventions have proved that technology can be tuned from a bless eas can we forget Hiroshima? Throughout most of the world, the name Hiroshima has come to represent man’s technological capacity for massive destruction. What is unfortunate is that Hiroshima seems to be recreated every day with more and more scientist squandering their talent to improve weapons of mass destruction, Other inventions, though less destructive in nature, can turn into killing monsters that threaten our life at all levels, Video games, for example, are meant to be entertaining, but if ever misused they may cause incurable health problems, inevitable educational hardships especially among teenagers. Cars, planes and ships are taking us to far distances fast and comfortably; yet they are meanwhile turning our planet into a suffocating greenhouse. ‘Truth be told, the problem is if technology is mastered by wrong powers, it will destroy everyone, 3.

It has beer proved that excessive gaming may Weaken learning motivation and mental development. Last but not least, spending many hours in front of the monitor and not going out enough couldiéilso Gause social problems thus resulting in them becoming shy and introvert. Apart from that the games developed nowadays happen to bea lot more violent thus the gamers do have a tendency to lose control and become more aggressive. Undoubtedly, parents need to keep track of how much time their children spend in front of the screen playing games and also as to what type of games they play. problems facing poor countries today is the so-called brain drain. Such a movement of highly skilled, talented individuals is becoming so acute that many are worrying about its effects on the economic development ofthe region. More and-more Educated professionals such as engineers, doctors and scientists iE looking for better job ‘opportunities and highér incontes/inywestem countries. Also more students\fiom developing nations Feceiving an education in Britain, the US, onFrance stay after completing their studies Hence, it's not surprising that serious drawbacks are becoming more and more apparent and social,/eeonomic as well as political conditions are getting worse. Poor countries are wastifig efforts and energies in favour of the western countries, while they are in need for their contribution in economics, education, health, planning, scientific research and technolo; Moreover, we may notice a financial loss as a lot moncy is spent on education and training of students who are favourable by the western countries for free. To make matters worse, scientific research in the developing countries is declining compared to the contribution of migratory brains in the west. 5S. How to help reduce ‘Brain Drain’? (Solutions) Knowledge is power. Knowledge is more powerful than jet fighters and bombers. Alas, poor developing countries are losing their bright brains to the most industrialized nations. The poor is getting poorer, while the rich is getting richer. To reduce brain drain requires that the developed and developing nations reach a mutual agreement on how to reduce the pull and push factors that make scientists flee Africa and Asia to Europe and America. The United States should stop using its special visas to lure talented professionals from their native countries. Also, African nations should try and understand the contributions of scientists by improving their working conditions. Africa could also reduce its internal brain drain by updating its school curricula to reflect its needs for the 21st century. African schools produce more graduates in the arts and humanities than in science and enginesring, It does not come as a surprise that there are only 20,000 scientists and engineers in Africa. Since science and technology can increase the standard of living, it makes more sense to produce more scientists and engineers. Also important is that scientists should be employed as scientists. The deteriorating economy in Africa has forced some professors, medical doctors and scientists to accept minor blue-collar jobs to survive, It is an internal brain drain to have many architects, accountants and pharmacists unemployed. 2 Unit 3: Essays @ The use of Linkers: Starting a general ‘Dp erally speaking/It is undeniable that +.
