Dear John, Thanks for dropping me some lines. Please excuse me for being so slow at getting back to you, but I have been busy lately. I am really sorry to know that you are not enjoying your new school and that you have not made new friends already.

Such

horrible news! I understand that meeting people in a different environment than the one you are used to, can be quite intimidating. But if you take one step beyond, I am sure that you'll find that the rest of the students are as eager to get to know you as you are to them. If I were you I would enrol on any club or extra activity that your school offers, so you will meet people in a much more relaxed place. I suggest you join a club that's related to anything you could be interested in, music, literature, sports... The theme is not important. Surely, your classmates will be very interested in listening to new ideas and perspectives that you could have. But don't be too smart! People hate smart-asses. And be patient. Building a good friendship always takes time. Believe me when I say that you are a person

that is

worth knowing. Don't worry because they will find out soon. Keep me informed about how is everything going. And I beg your pardon for not having time enough to write to you as much as I would like. Best wishes,

In some cultures, children are often told that they can achieve anything if they try hard enough. What are the advantages and disadvantages of giving children this message?
One of the most prevalent trends in the contemporary world is the cumulative increase in stress by their guardians to reach their children's goals. While some people argue that increased competition creates depression, while others believe that they can achieve goals with hard work. Both sides of this topic will be carefully analysed before constructing an inference.

Overpopulation in many major urban centers around the world is major problem. What are the causes of this? How can this problem be solved?
The population growth in the world has already gone out of control, especially in most Asian and African countries. This problematic issue in these areas is uncontrollable due to illiteracy, poor quality of life, and some social and religious taboo against population control. In this essay, I will explore some of the problems associated with overpopulation and propose some solutions.

Archaeology is partly the discovery of treasures of the past, partly the work of the scientific analyst, partly the exercise of the creative imagination. Do you agree or disagree?
Same to humans, knowledge also needs other knowledge to produce a perfect output. In archaeology, archaeologists work with other experts to answer questions that do not have any relation to archaeology. This essay agrees with this statement because ancient things were made in many backgrounds that can be understood from other views.

Nowadays many people choose to be self-employed, rather than to work for a company or organisation. Why might this be the case? What could be the disadvantages of being self-employed?
Working is a necessary portion of human beings throughout history. In this concept, people develop multiple appearances of employment from personal work to common organisation. However, today we could see the thrive of start-ups or entrepreneurs who abandon working in grant organisations. My essay will introduce some plausible reasons for this choice, followed by a further explanation for several possible drawbacks.
