Hi , Pratixa I would like to talk about your pup. Your Dog is so cute. But nowadays is so irritating because of the barking of your pet. I just want to know about something wrong with your pup. Can you tell me what happens I wanna just make sure everything is okay. If your pet is not well apply for the pet Doctor and check up on it. Because nowadays I am so disturbed because of your pup. I hope your puppy is okay, and you will do something about it. Please don't judge me. Let me know if anything is serious. Thank you Pinal Patel

Some people think that new houses should be built in the same style as older houses in the local area. Others disagree and say that local authorities should allow people to build homes in the styles of their own choice. Discuss both views and give your opinion.
The demand for new houses is on the rise in communities due to the growing population in the area. While some argue that housing concepts should be based on traditional ones, from my perspective, the government should allow people to construct homes according to their needs. It would bring more opportunities to the community.

I am writing this letter to express my disappointment with a recent purchase I made in your online store which is code #2000019. I ordered a set of Adidas trainers that was on sale for 20% of the price and 2 pairs of striped socks which had sold for 50%. However, on their arrival, I found out that there was only the trainer in the unproper full box. In addition, the shoes’s pointer were scratched and looked like they had been used before.

Some believe that more academic subjects such as chemistry, physics and history should be taught in schools, while others believe that students will derive more benefit from studying practical subjects, such as motor mechanics and cooking. Discuss both views and provide your own opinion with relevant examples.
In today’s society, there are many arguments about the educational system in most countries. Some parents and teachers are in favor of academic subjects such as chemistry, physics and history being taught in schools. However, others argue students should be taught subjects that are more practical, such as motor mechanics and cooking. Both views are validated and I agree with both but it is best to balance these options.
