In recent years, the number of refugees fleeing conflict, persecution, and poverty has risen dramatically. While some argue that wealthier nations have a moral duty to accept and support more refugees, others contend that such responsibilities should not be imposed. Personally, I strongly agree that affluent countries should take greater responsibility by accommodating more refugees and offering them essential support such as food and housing.
First and foremost, wealthier nations often have the resources and infrastructure to manage an increase in refugee populations. Many developed countries enjoy stable economies, robust welfare systems, and well-organized administrative capacities. These advantages enable them to provide the basic necessities of life—shelter, food, and healthcare—without significantly straining national budgets. For example, Germany has successfully integrated over a million Syrian refugees in recent years, showing that large-scale humanitarian assistance is achievable with sufficient planning and investment.
Moreover, offering aid to refugees aligns with international human rights obligations and moral responsibility. Refugees are often victims of circumstances beyond their control, such as war or persecution. Turning them away contradicts the principles of humanity and solidarity that many wealthy nations claim to uphold. By sharing the burden more equitably, developed countries can promote global stability and reduce the strain on neighboring developing countries, which often bear the brunt of refugee crises.
In conclusion, I firmly believe that wealthy countries should do more to support refugees by accepting greater numbers and ensuring they receive basic assistance. This approach not only reflects moral and humanitarian values but also contributes to a more balanced and compassionate global community.

To be labeled a ‘Work of Art’, a painting, sculpture or other art forms should display certain qualities that are unique. However, over the past century, there has been a decline in the quality of prize-winning artwork and it is now possible for quite ordinary pieces of art to be labeled ‘masterpieces ’ whilst true works of art pass unnoticed. Do you agree or disagree?
The contentious argument that whether organizations can solicit personal information from job seekers in an employment application has sparked a heated debate among many. In this essay, I will illustrate the merits and demerits of such practice by employers and then provide my own opinion.
On the one hand, there are benefits to organizations in acquiring information about a prospective employee, including his hobbies, marital status, et cetera. The primary advantage is that the multinational corporations can gauge whether an applicant is a best-fit or not for a vacancy by asking for his or her personal data. For instance, a position that requires travelling frequently to various metropolitan cities in the world will not be a good-fit for married people because of their marital commitment. In addition, an organization can increase its employee retention rate by enquiring about a potential hire’s hobbies and interests. For example, a financial analyst who is fond of latest gadgets would be excited to work for a high tech corporation rather than another applicant who despises an advanced device.
On the other hand, there are some cons in employers seeking personal information from job applicants. First of all, an organization may inadvertently drive away the best qualified candidate who has privacy concerns by asking for one’s hobbies, interests, marital status, et cetera. Moreover, some employers may resort to discriminatory practices by selecting potential hires based on their personal preferences. For instance, an interviewer who despises a game of cricket may overlook an applicant whose passion is to play with a bat and ball.
Having considered a range of arguments, I firmly believe that the merits of an organization seeking personal information from job candidates outweigh the drawbacks; employers can match applicants to the vacancies and increase employee retention rates.

The line graph depicts the link between age and criminality rate last year ,whilst the pie chart showcases the percentage of numerous kinds of crimes during the same year. Overall, the majroity of criminals are youngsters and a large portion of this phenomenon features violence. It is conspicuous that young people are the prime lawbreakers in the british society. In fact, according to the data, individuals who are 20 are responsible for 80% of crimes. It is also noticeable that there is no criminal under the age of 8 years old. Hence, criminality starts from this period. Furthermore, the crime rate decreases dramatically from the age of 20 to 28 years old, passing from 80% to exactly 20%. Afterwards, it plummets steadily until becoming under the 10% at the age of 60. On the other hand, the pie chart puts forward the fact that violent acts are the most that occured. Indeed, this genre of detrimental action accounts for 46%, followed by property crimes that represent 23% of the total. Then, 22% of crimes that occured the previous year were related to narcotics.

The diagram illustrates the multitude of steps and equipment involved in cement making, it also showcases how it is used in concrete production for building purposes. Overall, there are several stages and tools which are used in this complex process. First of all, limestone and clay are crushed to get powder. Next, they are mixed before being put in a rotating heater. The mixture passes in a grinder to get thus the cement. This latter is put in bags to be stored and sold. In addition to this process, the figure highlights the method to manufacture another essential commodity in the building industry which is concrete. Indeed, the material is mainly composed by gravel that represents 50% of the total components. Furthermore, Cement represents 15% of the ingredients, plus 10% of water and 25% of sand. The all is mixed thanks to an adapted mixer in order to get the final goods. To conclude, we can notice that cement which is crucial in concrete making, is done through several steps and using numerous tools.

The Syrian civil war began in 2011 under the influence of the Arab Spring when the people of Syria started asking for reforms
Syrian government repressed peaceful demonstrations by force and through killing innocents. That is when the armed opposition formed in Syria and Bashar Al Assad started defending his authority with all his might.
The Syrian proved Al Assad has no real authority in Syria. It makes him looking help from Russia, Iran and Hezbollah. Syrian people were started started. Russia and Iran use weapons against Syrian people. Syrian people started seeking refugees and help from other neighboring countries.
War almost always creates public disaster. Everywhere where war happens, civilization at risk. There are many people in conflict areas who need protection. They are innocent people who actually dream about a worth and safe world.
Countries who focus their attention on ending war must put in extra effort to realize their mission. UN Representatives from various countries often propose peace missions as a solution. Through these representatives, countries can vocalize their opinions through communities like the UN where they are gather and discuss world peacekeeping.
Ironically, not all countries feel the same. In this case, several of them do not seem to support world peace. They focus on their own political ideals. Therefore destruction and problematic scenarios continue.
When talking about Syrian refugees there are always countries that are for and against their better interests. Countries like the US and organizations like the EU fully support ending the suffering in Syria. Other countries like Russia seem to not support the rebels or the end of their suffering, rather, they support the Syrian government. That is why there is not yet a consensus.
Two draft texts — one from France and Spain, and the other from the Russian Federation — address the conflict in Syria. They failed to be adopted by the Security Council due to a heated debate on the content. Meanwhile, urgent calls for humanitarian intervention for the besieged city of Aleppo continue to be made.
The French and Spanish text that would have had the Council demand an immediate halt to all aerial bombardments and military flights over the city of Aleppo received 11 affirmative votes, two abstentions (Angola and China), and two negative votes (Russian Federation and Venezuela).
The Russian Federation’s text, by which the Council would have urged an immediate cessation of hostilities, particularly in Aleppo, received a vote of 4 in favour (China, Egypt, Russian Federation, Venezuela) to 9 against (France, Japan, Malaysia, New Zealand, Senegal, Spain, Ukraine, United Kingdom, United States), with 2 abstentions (Angola and Uruguay).
The Statement
JEAN-MARC AYRAULT, the French Minister for Foreign Affairs, supports the end of the conflict in Syria. He spoke in front of representatives from all over the world about Aleppo. What happened in Aleppo could be a horrendous repetition of what had happened in Guernica, Sarajevo and Grozny.
ROMÁN OYARZUN MARCHESI (Spain) stated that the ongoing conflict could still be ahead. He demanded for international organizations to not close their eyes to the situation. If the conflict could be ended, 1000 towns could be saved and a humanitarian catastrophe could be stopped. He talked about the intolerable actions of the Syrian Government who removed medical assistance to these areas. France and Spain have done everything they can to make the 15 nation council come to a consensus.
The Russians continue to veto this proposal.
VITALY I. CHURKIN (Russian Federation) the Russian Minister for Foreign Affairs and Security Council President for October, spoke to his nation, stating that the backstory to the draft resolution was well known. He argued that after destroying Libya, the troika of permanent Western members of the Security Council had turned its eyes on Syria. Furthermore, the French delegation had not put forward a single constructive initiative. In its current proposed draft, the concept of a ban on all military flights had not been fleshed out.
Denying Syrian Refugee
Various countries deny Syrian refugees come to their country to get asylum. US has denied application from 7 % Syrian refugees regarding to their migration. I think this case is unique. Syrian refugees must apply application forms to be selected later by the US administration. There will be failed application and accepted application. US faced dilemma whether they accepted or not. Syrian refugee often associated with a “terrorist country”. Various countries must be thinking twice to accept thousand people who comes from Syria. It is caused by previous terror in Paris, officers find a Syrian passport who belong to one of the terrorists.

The line charts indicate how the number of train passengers varied in an unspecified geographical location, as well as revealing the proportion of trains running punctually compared to the fixed target of 95%. All the statistics are recorded for the period from 2000 to 2009. From a quick glance, the number of train passengers underwent considerable fluctuation, reaching a peak in 2005. Meanwhile, the rate of trains running on time shared the same statistical progression, meeting or exceeding the target from 2002 to 2005 and again from 2008 to 2009. In 2000, the number of travelers using trains was 37 million, climbing to around 42 million before dropping to just below its starting number in 2003. During the next years, train passengers rose sharply and hit the most significant peak of around 47 million in 2005; afterwards, the figure was somewhat unsteady, ending up staying at around 43 million at the end of the period. In terms of running time efficiency, the rate stood at 92% within the year 2000, subsequently amounting to an adequate 95% in 2002. In the later years, the proportion of on-time trains exceeded the set target when the rate was 96% in 2004, but later declined notably by 4% in 2006. However, the percentage of punctual trains went up gradually and eventually stabilized at 97%.
