Dear [Choose a Name],
Today Advertisement me 1 message No attachment 1:55 AM No Subject These days, there is a widespread argument on the issue of whether large companies should provide sports and community facilities to the local people. While some still hold to the conservative view, I strongly argue that it is expected from large companies to establish sports and community facilities for the local people. The reasons for this are as follows. First of all, it is vitally important that large companies attempt to compensate for the harm they have brought to the local populations’ lives. Although such companies as Ferray factory have generated higher employment opportunities for the local residents, their ecological damages and disruptive impacts on residents’ daily lives like air pollution, noise pollution and heavy traffic are undeniable. In order to alleviate applied drawbacks, building sports gyms, health clinics and schools could be compensating. It is, therefore, necessary for large companies to pay adequate attention to the locals' tranquillity. Yet, perhaps the strongest argument in favour of this issue is the tremendous merits that would return to benefit those companies. Of course, investing in such facilities would impose an economic burden on large companies, nonetheless, this approach would increase convenience and enjoyment for their employees as well, resulting in efficiency growth at work. For instance, having provided such facilities for locals by Google company resulted in a peaceful life as well as an increase in the workers' innovation and problem-solving skills. Additionally, this would be associated with skilled workforces in the future. So, rather than considering building facilities for the public redundant, fulfilling these methods is advisable in the long term. By way of conclusion, I once again reaffirm my position that dedicating funds to providing facilities for local people is justified. Furthermore, warning the chief executive of the consequences of both implementing and ignoring this policy would encourage them to inv me 1 message No attachment 1:18 AM No Subject The graphs below show the percentage of graduates that got full-time jobs after graduating from a university in Australia, and the average salary of both these types of graduates, from 2004 to 2012.

First, the raw material for brick manufacturing which is a type of sticky earth named clay is excavated by diggers. Having passed them through a metal grid into a roller machine separates useless big pieces of stones. The acquired substances then, blended with sand and water and poured in mould or a bigger container which demand wire to cut them into standard size of brick.

Summarise the information by selecting and reporting the main features, and make comparisons where relevant. A glance at the line graph provided compares the rate of full-time recruitment among Math graduates and other graduates from an Australian university, while, the table illustrates their salaries during the period from 2004 to 2012. In general, it seems that math graduates not only were more successful in finding full-time jobs but earned more than other graduates. It is evident from the information supplied that the rate of full-time employment for math graduates was higher than graduates of other majors, experiencing a steady trend between 75% and 80%. However, it fluctuated considerably for other graduates. From 65% in 2004, it peaked at 82% in 2006, before dropping to less than 60% in 2012. Interestingly, Math graduates earned more than other graduates. Although their salaries were the same at $41000 in 2004 and $43000 in 2006, after 2008 the gap between them increased. Having earned $50000 in 2008, math graduates’ income reached $56000 in 2012. Meanwhile other graduates experienced a marginal growth in their income which was $45000 in 2008 and $51000 in 2012.

Dear ................. ,
There are three main things to consider before writing your essay:
1. Tone (formal or informal)
Sometimes students are friendly with their tutors, but I think it would be better to write a formal letter. Start with your tutor’s surname (e.g. Dear Mr. Smith,) and end with “Yours sincerely,”. Avoid contractions (write “I am” instead of “I’m”), and avoid using informal idioms or expressions. Be polite rather than friendly.
2. Purpose
The main purpose of this letter is to inform your tutor that you are leaving the course. Make this clear straight away (e.g. I am writing to inform you that...). Then cover the three points, writing a short paragraph for each.
3. Ideas
I recommend spending a few minutes planning ideas for each of the task points before you start writing. You need to decide what the evening course is about, what your full-time job is, a reason why you are too busy with work to continue with the course, and whether you want to leave completely or perhaps continue at a later date.

Yours sincerely,
