your uncle gave you on your Birthday. Unfortunately,

side gets broken. I am really for that I

you will forgive me. I tried to fix the broken side with fevicol but sadly got no success. I am feeling very guilty right now but I have no other option.

However

new bowl of the same colour and look, it's not exactly the same of course but looks similar at

You should use complex sentences in your writing, but it does not mean that you should try to make all of our sentences complex.

‘Complex’ sentences are not actually very complex; they are just two or more simple sentences put together. Putting them together makes the essay more coherent and cohesive.

I really want to study but I’m too tired.

I wore a warm coat because the weather was cold.

Some people think that to learn a second language well it is necessary to live in the country where that language is spoken.What is your opinion about this?
Bilingualism refers to the act of knowing a language besides your mother-tounge on a proficient level. Having the ability to comprehend and communicate using a second language is a valuable asset as it allows you to connect with people from various places all around the world. It is a no-brainer that in order for someone to master a new language, they have to go through the process of learning it thoroughly. Some might argue that it is necessary for someone to live in the country where that language is spoken. In the contrary, I think that that condition should not be a necessity.

In many countries children are engaged in some kind of paid work. Some people regard this as completely wrong, while others consider it as valuable work experience, important for learning and taking responsibility.
Many people regard work as an experience that is found outside school. In numerous countries, youngsters are participating in the work that they get paid. Some say it is good for children’s experiences and also teach them life skills, including responsibility whilst some disagree. Both sides have their own aspects. However, personally, it is a better idea that children work and gain real experience before they have an actual job. There are reasons to back up the claims from both sides.

While your friend was away on vacation, you stayed in his apartment. While you were there, you dropped an expensive bowl and broke it. Write a letter to your friend. In your letter - explain what happened, - apologise for the accident, - tell your friend what you plan to do about the bowl.
