Do you use the internet often?

Do you use the internet often?

Yes, I do use the Internet constantly through day, every day. I mainly use it for
entertainment reasons like browsing news sites, playing video games or
watching movies. It’s also a useful educational tool with a huge range of
online lessons and teaching videos.


How do you imagine your life without internet?
Oh, I would be like any citizen of North Korea…Just kidding. The internet is my
source for TV programs, music, news, and research, so without the Internet,
everything would be very difficult. The people I've met would not exist without it,
and my life would be drastically different and monotonous.


Should children be introduced to the internet at an early age?
I would definitely say no. They might be exposed to incorrect and inaccurate information on
the internet which they tend to believe that it’s true. Besides, children may suffer from health
problems because they do less exercise and have less social interaction with others surrounding
them.


What do you think about working in groups?

In my opinion, working in a team is a great way for me to sharpen my
interpersonal, problem-solving and critical-thinking skills. Although we may
sometimes have dissents, we could learn from each other, sharing good ideas and
making our relationships closer.


Have you done any research on a subject? What do you think about it?

Yes, I have done many research proposals in Linguistics before. Like any researcher, I had to
work very hard and seriously to discriminate between sources, sift information and marshal
facts. But I had wonderful chances to learn advanced knowledge and gain useful experience.

CONCLUSION


INTRODUCTION

People have many methods when they want to gather data about a place:
seeking out on the Internet, questioning other inhabitants or going to the city
themselves. If I had to do this task, I would decide to travel to the place by
myself.


BODY I
Firstly, going to the town myself would show my responsibility to the task and satisfy my
curiosity. Secondly, I would have a deep understanding about the place because you know,
observation is the best teacher. For these reasons, I believe that the result would be very
reliable.

 


BODY II
There are several reasons why I don’t choose the other options. Actually, searching on the Internet
may be the quickest way to collect information but I’m not sure if the information is true or not.
It may be unreliable and inaccurate . Secondly, I don’t think that asking inhabitants around me is
a good method. There is no way to tell how truthful a respondent is and, the respondent may be
forgetful or give me the answer that is outdated.


CONCLUSION

In short, if I were in the situation, I would opt to find out the place by myself
because I think this method is the most accurate and reliable one.


Students studying overseas encounter various problems


INTRODUCTION
Studying abroad is a hot trend among students nowadays. However, it’s not
always as fascinating as it sounds. Students studying in a foreign country
could suffer from the mental, emotional and financial problems because of the
following reasons.


BODY I
Firstly, when people arrive in a new country, they are cut off from a familiar
culture and they have to experience a totally different surroundings and norms,

which leads to the feeling of disorientation, insecurity, anxiety and overall
unhappiness.


BODY II
Secondly, students may find themselves in debt because of severe shortage of parental financial support and
their poor money management skill. Besides, communication barrier is another challenge for students. Even when a
student thought he was fluent, it’s also difficult for him to understand the strong local accent. Walls would arise in
the form of local nuances, slang, forgotten vocabulary and more. 


BODY III

Many students have to study overseas against their will. I
mean, they just study because their parents want them to study.
This makes them easily upset while confronting with even a
small problem. In my opinion, homesickness is also one of the
major obstacles. Students miss their family so bad that they
couldn’t focus on anything, reducing their performance at
school. That’s all I want to say about this topic.
 


Do you think studying abroad is beneficial? Why/ why not?
I strongly believe that studying overseas brings about a ton of plus points for students. It
widens their knowledge and horizon, and meanwhile cultivates their independence and
personalities because they have to learn how to be accustomed to a new environment and
how to get along with others.

What are possible solutions to overcome the problems above?
To get over the difficulties mentioned above, I think before going to a foreign country, students should
do a little background information by reading through travel forums, guidebooks, news reports, or
novels. Also, they should think positively and keep an open mind. Last but not least, they have to make
sure they have certain goals for their study abroad trip.
