The Greeting

Depending on the style and aim of the letter, you will need to adapt your greeting.

Always start an informal letter in the ways:

Dear + name
Hi / Hello + name

‘Dear...’ is more appropriate, so stick with this.

For a formal letter there are two options for the greeting:

Use Dear Sir or Madam if you don’t know the name of the person you are writing to.
Use Dear + surname if you do know their name, e.g. Dear Mr Smith or Dear Mrs Jones.

Some people believe that it is better to stay with one company during a career. Do you agree or disagree with this point of view?
Nowadays, many people, especially younger people, consider changing jobs. On the other hand, some people claim that a career at the same workplace is a better choice. Admitting that there is always the other side of the coin of the advantages and disadvantages, the answer varies from person to person. All in all, I agree that staying in one company is a better decision throughout our careers. There are two reasons to support my idea, as follows.

Schools should stop using books for teaching to learn as they find them boring, and use films, TV and computers instead. To what extent do you agree with this?
Nowadays, education and teaching are changing rapidly, which causes students to become more and more reliant on digital technologies. These digital technologies help students become independent learners. However, traditional methods which are used in many educational institutions make students develop their intellectual abilities. I strongly agree with the second proposition that conventional methods of learning are more efficient.

The world of work is changing rapidly and employees cannot depend on having the same job or the same working conditions for life.Discuss the possible causes for this rapid change, and suggest ways of preparing people for the world of work in the future. Give reasons for your answer and include any relevant examples from your own knowledge or experience.
In today's contemporary era, with everything changing at such a fast pace, people cannot just assume that they would be able to sustain the same job or same working conditions forever. This can be possibly because of advancements in technology, because of which there is more supply than demand in most work fields. This essay elaborates on this cause, as well as discusses how employees can be prepared to face this work trend in the future.

People from cities go to university more often than those who live in the country. Some people think that the government should make it easier to enter universities for people who live outside of cities and towns by setting lower entry requirements and tuition fees. To what extent do you agree or disagree with this statement?
Education has become more important which ensures one gets a high-paying job and improves the quality of life. However, students from the countryside have a lower college admission rate than those from the cities. As a result, some suggested that the government should lower the entry requirements as well as the tuition fees so those who live outside of cities can also get a college education. I believe that the major obstacle that stops people from the country from having further schooling is the financial burden rather than their study ability.

In their advertising, bussinesses nowadays usually emphasize that their products are new in some way. Why is this? Do you think it is a positive or negative development?
In today’s competitive market, businesses often highlight the novelty of their products in advertisements. This trend is driven by the need to capture consumer attention, create a sense of innovation, and differentiate themselves from competitors. While emphasizing newness can stimulate economic growth and innovation, it also has potential drawbacks, such as promoting unsustainable consumer behavior and superficial marketing strategies.
