Dear Sir. As the news for our community sprite out, and everybody talk about the new building project with flats, I write to you to place my disagreement. The community park is the placenta of our city. Taking the risk to abandon our forest and make another block of flats will be a big mistake.

Firstly

, and as far as I am concerned about our health and our progress as a community, I believe, that the major and the local council are taking the wrong decision, without considering the problems that will come. Where will our kids and our elders go for a walk and spent their free time? Where we will find oxygen? That park is always full of life. Don't take it from us.

Secondly

last

night, as I was scrolling through the internet I saw a post for the new investment. As they present it, it will be a block from seven flours of concrete. Now we all pass and see the green land of the park, and in a few months that paradise will be a black hole.

Lastly

, and as a closure, I suggest you, make an article in our local newspaper to prevent that development. Everyone has the right to save that land. So, if it is possible all citizens to make a parade and say our thoughts about that. We have to stop them. If you will need someone to organise that I ensure you, that I will be there. Thanks for your consideration. Joan Dept

Learning at university would be more effective if men and women were educated separetely. To what extent do you agree or disagree?
It is argued that higher education institutions should separate their students by gender, in order to enhance their learning process. I strongly disagree with such measure, since it could widen the gender gap in education. In addition, I believe that every student should be taught equally, regardless of their gender.
