allowed me to stay with you. Our trekking to the nearby Malibu Hill was a refreshing experience and a memorable one. I was able to escape from the stress of the city. The food we had at the Hill Top restaurant was so delicious that I even tried to make the same curry at home but couldn't reach even closer. Do you remember the local attire we wore there? Anyway, I was looking through the photographs from the vacation and found some amazing clicks. I've enclosed them with the letter. I think they will remind us of the wonderful friendship we have.

Fewer students are studying science at school and university, favouring more computer-based subjects instead. Is this a positive or negative development? What are the reasons for this? Give reasons for your answer and include any relevant examples from your knowledge or experience.
Nowadays, more and more students are choosing subjects such as IT and other subjects connected with computers and technology rather than pursuing scientific subjects in both secondary school and higher education. Overall, I think that this is a pity and that more should be done to encourage students to study science. However, it is also understandable why students are attracted to computer-based subjects.

Millions of dollars are spent on space research every year. Some people argue that the money should be spent on improving living standards on Earth. Do you agree or disagree?
Spending a lot of capital on researching how to go out of the earth has sparked debates among the community. Some argue that putting property into this research is wasteful, whereas others think otherwise. I lean toward the belief that it is better to invest wages in nations to enhance their economies and raise the crowd's living standards.
