Dear Billy I was so surprised when I received a package from Australia the other day. The postman brought it
last
 Tuesday and I was delighted to see it was sent from you.
Then
 when I opened it and saw that it contained a shirt from Sydney I was really pleased. Thank you so much. You obviously remember that during my stay in Sydney I was a big fan of the Sydney Opera House. I think the architecture is amazing, so to have that on the t-shirt is really special for me. It looks like a high-quality t-shirt as well, so I'm sure I'll get plenty of wear out of it.
Next
 month I am going to see a few bands play at a music festival in my city, including a band from Australia. I think that will be the perfect time to wear it and show my Aussie connections. So, thank you once again. I'll write to you again soon and tell you about the connection. Best wishes, Jeremy

    ln many parts of the world, children are given more freedom than in the post. ls this a posifive or a negative development?

    Children now-a-days can enjoy a lots of flexibility and independence in many certain aspects of their life in many countries and cultures. This is almost a new trend as previously they were not able to enjoy such leniency. In my opinion, this new trend of providing children their freedom of thinking and doing things at their own is a positive development. Although there might be some negative aspects of being derailed from their track due to lack of proper guidelines, these can be resolved by endowing freedom at a certain stage when they will be able to distinguish between what is good and harmful.

    In Some Countries An Increasing Number Of People Are Suffering From Health Problems As A Result Of Eating Too Much Fast Food

    In these days, there is a fact that the number of people have health issues because of overusing junk food is increasing. Hence, some people believe that the authorities should enact a higher tax for these kinds of food. I totally agree with this viewpoint because it will help to decrease the people’s demand on fast food and it also encourage people cooking healthy meal at home.

    It is impossible to help all people in the world, so governments should focus on people in their own countries. To what extent do you agree or disagree?

I disagree with this view and believe that governments have a moral obligation and a strategic interest to help other countries as well as their own. In this essay, I will explain why I think global cooperation is beneficial for both humanitarian and economic reasons.

    Crime appears to be rising in most countries in the world, especially among young people. What are the possible causes of this trend, and what solutions would be effective reducing crime.

    In many societies around the globe, the offense rate appears to be increased, specifically by youngsters. In this essay, we will discuss the core causes of this trend and possible solutions. Nowadays, the gravest reason for this situation seems that the relation between entertainment media which shows violence, and crime scenes, and young people who are watching and hearing those contents most of the time. These violent imaginaries affect the children’s behavior and characters negatively. At a young age, most kids are not capable of clarifying the distinction between right and wrong actions by themselves. It might lead them to commit a crime or to have a temptation of offense. So, to prevent this situation, authorities need to concern more seriously about the creator of those contents, and if it is needed, they should tighten the restrictions for the upcoming media content. Similarly, families need to pay more attention to what their kids are watching and hearing. If it se...
