It is often believed that serious social
problems
Use synonyms
can occur as much as practical
problems
Use synonyms
when we live in foreign
countries
Use synonyms
where we should use foreign languages. And I completely disagree with
this
Linking Words
argument. First of all, there are many amount practical
problems
Use synonyms
than social
problems
Use synonyms
. We should get a job to keep our living in foreign
countries
Use synonyms
.
However
Linking Words
, if we did not have good
pronunciation
Use synonyms
as well as
Linking Words
the
people
Use synonyms
who were born there, and
people
Use synonyms
did not understand well our
pronunciation
Use synonyms
, we could not keep our jobs much longer.
For example
Linking Words
, the way to pronounce terms of medical in South
Korean
Use synonyms
is really different compared with the
pronunciation
Use synonyms
in America, so in the case
Korean
Use synonyms
doctors
Use synonyms
work in America, many American
doctors
Use synonyms
cannot understand what exactly
Korean
Use synonyms
doctors
Use synonyms
say and
this
Linking Words
difference will make both
countries
Use synonyms
doctors
Use synonyms
harder in working, especially
Korean
Use synonyms
doctors
Use synonyms
are much harder.
Secondly
Linking Words
, everybody who lives in foreign
countries
Use synonyms
can experience a racial distribution. Because of the different colour of skin, some
people
Use synonyms
still hate and ignore other
people
Use synonyms
from foreign nations and
this
Linking Words
can be followed by the hardness in getting jobs or receiving fewer salaries than usual citizens.
For instance
Linking Words
, I saw the video content of the Orient travellers who visited
countries
Use synonyms
in Europe and some restaurants’ staff in Europe ignored that visitors came from Orient
countries
Use synonyms
and did not receive their orders. In conclusion,
still
Add a comma
,still
show examples
many practical
problems
Use synonyms
can cause more than serious social
problems
Use synonyms
because of the foreigners’
pronunciation
Use synonyms
and racism. In my case, I fully disagree with
this
Linking Words
statement because of the large difference in the amount of
problems
Use synonyms
between social and practical
problems
Use synonyms
.
