Laptop as Student’s Friend

Conventionally, students need book, pen, eraser, drawing book, ruler and such other stuff.
Additionally, in this multimedia era, students need more to reach their progressive development. Students need
mobile keyboards to record every presented subject easily. Of course it will need more cost but it will deserve
for its function. (Thesis)

First, modern schools tend to apply fast transferring knowledge because the school needs to catch the
target of curriculum. Every subject will tend to be given in demonstrative method. Consequently students need
extra media cover the subject. Since there is a laptop on every student’s desk, this method will help student to
get better understanding. (Argument)
 Secondly, finding an appropriate laptop is not difficult as it was. Recently there is an online shop which
provides comprehensive information. The best is that the shop has service of online shopping. The students just
need to browse that online shop, decide which computer or laptop they need, and then complete the transaction.
After that the laptop will be delivered to the students’ houses. That is really easy and save time and money.
(Argument)

From all of that, having mobile computer is absolutely useful for students who want to catch the best
result for their study. Buying laptop online is advisable because it will cut the price. This online way is
recommended since online shop also provides several laptop types. Students just need to decide which type they
really need. (Reiteration)

Obesity is a Nightmare

As the rate of obesity continues to climb in the United States, one age
group is feeling the ramifications more than most. More than half of
Americans are overweight including at least 1 in 5 children. Teenage
obesity is becoming an epidemic and for many teens, a living nightmare.
The foods we eat everyday contribute to our well-being. Foods
provide us with the nutrients we need for healthy bodies and the calories
we need for energy. If we eat too much, however the extra food turns to
fats and is stored in our bodies. If we overeat regularly, we gain weight,
and if we continue to gain weight, we may become obese.
besity means accumulation of excess fat on the body. Obesity is
considered a chronic (long – term) disease, like high blood pressure or diabetes. It has many serious long-term
consequences for your health, and it is the second leading cause of preventable deaths.
Obesity is caused by the false life style. People have meals at the fast food restaurant which serve the junk food;
they do not control their appetite, they like to attend parties where food is abundant while physical activity is
lack.
