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

In many countries, people are now living longer than ever before. Some people say an ageing population creates problems for governments. Other people think there are benefits if society has more elderly people. To what extent do the advantages of having an ageing population outweigh the disadvantages?
In contemporary times, the ageing population has become a common phenomenon. Some people think that this causes some problems for governments, whereas others contend that this phenomenon can provide certain benefits. However, in this essay, I consider that having an ageing population may lend to more drawbacks rather than advantages, especially in numerous disease and labour force issues.

Learning English at school is often seen as more important than learning local languages. If these are not taught, many are at risk of dying out.  In your opinion, is it important for everyone to learn English? Should we try to ensure the survival of local languages and, if so, how? Give reasons for your answer and include any relevant examples from your own knowledge or experience.
In school, being taught English is perceived as more vital than being taught local tongues. If local languages are not taught, they will disappear. In my opinion, I think it is necessary for all students to learn English because it is the language that is recognised globally. Moreover, it is also vital to make sure that local tongue do not desire, meaning that they should never be neglected in the pedagogy sector.

Some people argue that all experimentation on animals is bad and should be outlawed. However, others believe that important scientific discoveries can be made from animal experiments. Can experimentation on animals be justified? Are there any alternatives? Give reasons for your answer and include any relevant examples from your own knowledge and experience
Over the last few decades, there have been vast advances in the field of medical science. Scientists have to use animals to some extent to be able to prove the safety of certain medicines or cosmetic products for human use. In my opinion, using animal experiments should be limited to some specific drugs.

Some argue that History is a compulsory subject in school. While other state that subjects like Science and technology are much more important than history due to the modern world that we live in. In this essay, I will discuss both views as well as prove my point of view.
