These days, school should focus more on producing young people who have the skills required to join the workforce, rather than focusing on academic subjects. To what extent do you agree or disagree with this statement
It is widely accepted nowadays that proffessions need manpower who is skillful. In this regard some believe that education should be based on these kinds of skills to introduce them to the actual job market rather than concentrating just on written and non-practical courses. This essay will argue that how significantly it is important to have talented and skilled workforce rather than educated only.

What are advantages and disadvantages of leaving your country to live and study aboard?
There are several positive and negative impacts of living and studying aboard. Living and studying abroad are big decisions which is urgent to be rethinking. Living and studying abroad are correctly with people who want significant challenges. However, this option is not appropriate for people who want to stay in their comfort zone for their lives.

Some people think that sports involving violence, such as boxing and martial arts, should be banned from TV as well as from international sporting competitions. To what extent do you agree?h
It is controversial whether some sports and global sporting competitions with the use of violence should be broadcasted on TV or not. I partially agree with this, for they are more likely to promote offensive acts among young people, who often cannot tell the difference between right and wrong, regardless of the fact that the violent sports encourgage people to respect one another.

You live in a small university town. Last week, you drove to a big city about two hours away to buy a new laptop at a good price. You worked on the laptop all week and finished writing a long assignment that is due shortly. However, this week, the laptop doesn't even switch on. Write to the store. In your letter: •Tell the store where you live & what happened •Explain the problem with the laptop •State what action you would like the store to take
I'm your new clent. I am renting a university dorm room outside of the city. I need a new laptop immediately and came to your store based on an advertisement. I was delighted when I discovered that you've offered a lot of choices and that your expenses are so reasonable. I used the laptop to work for a while without any problems, but soon after, it suddenly shut down, had very little power and the letters on the keyboard stopped working. I was worried because I had a lot of classes to complete. Mine assignment is done. I'm unable to continue using this laptop, though. Instead of buying me a new laptop to replace my broken one, I just want my money back. Furthermore, there is no transportation system in our region, so I needed to walk a considerable distance to arrive at your store. Secondly, your salespeople don't treat customers well. I hope you will fix this as well. Please return my money immediately. I hope you understand me.
