Dear Tom

I’m

just writing to let you know I quit my old job and found something new. I was really fed up with being a brain surgeon because it wasn’t really much of a challenge anymore. You know me; if

I’m

not learning new tricks, I get bored too easily and have to find something new.

I’m

now teaching English as a foreign language in Vietnam and it suits me down to the ground. I teach two adult classes and a kindergarten class, which is not only challenging but

also

rewarding too. Can you believe it? I

also

have some other amazing news-

I’m

getting married. She was one of my

first

ever students and I guess it was love at

first

sight for both of us. Make sure you keep the

first

weekend in July free, so you can come and celebrate with us. Keep in touch Chris

Dear Robbie, hope this letter finds you well, a good health, as well as aware that our kid's summer vacation is starting from July 15 to 30.

Some people argue that we should do research into their family history. Others, agree with the view that we should focus on the present and future generations. Discuss both views and give your own opinion?
Some people say that having a deep look into the family history is important, whereas others argue that focusing on the present and the next generation is the top priority. Although having an idea about what happened in the family past is essential, I support the latter view that paying attention to the present and the future of families is more crutial.

Virtual reality should be used as a tool for therapeutic interventions and mental health treatments. To what extent do you agree or disagree?
It is a contentious issue, whether it is necessary to use simulator computers for the medical treatment of human beings. I concur with this usage of technology because it results in fast recoveries and can internally heal the patients. This essay will elucidate these points in the impeding paragraphs.

It is expected that in the future old people are going to outnumber young people in many countries. Do you feel this is a positive or negative development?
In many parts of the world, the ratio of older people to younger people is swelling. This trend, while it may have a few benefits, is felt to be more negative than positive in nature. This will be shown by examining how a large elderly populace strains a society’s public health resources and discourages younger members from having children.

Some people say that music is a good way of bringing people of different cultures and ages together. To what extent do you agree or disagree with this opinion?
A number of people believe that music gathers people from other cultures and at diverse ages. From my point of view, it is completely true. I strongly believe that the music is universal. I would like to express my thoughts with relevant examples.
