“Skyfall” FCE</span></h2><div><span lang="EN-US" style="mso-ansi-language: EN-US;"><p class="MsoNormal"><span lang="EN-US" style="mso-ansi-language: EN-US;">"Skyfall" is
one of the best action films to come out in recent years. Released in 2012, it
stars Daniel Craig as a secret agent James Bond and Spanish actor Javier Bardon
as the villain in this film – Raul Silva. <o:p></o:p></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span lang="EN-US" style="mso-ansi-language: EN-US;">The plot
involves a genius computer hacker who is an ex-spy. He wants to take revenge on
the organization he used to work for and James Bond has to prevent this from happening.
The film is packed with a lot of exciting action scenes as Bond pursues him
around the world. <o:p></o:p></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span lang="EN-US" style="mso-ansi-language: EN-US;">The film is
set in a variety of locations, including Istanbul, Shanghai, Macao, London and
Scotland. In this way the film acquires rather international atmosphere. The
soundtrack is impressive and also epic. The theme song "Skyfall" is amazing. The
acting, the costumes and the effects are of very high standards. The actors’
performance is dazzling and memorable. <o:p></o:p></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span lang="EN-US" style="mso-ansi-language: EN-US;">I would
highly recommend "Skyfall", especially if you are keen on action films. It will
have you on the edge of your sit until the very end and you will not regret
watching it. <o:p></o:p></span></p>* Teacher's note: it would be better to include: </span></div><div><span lang="EN-US" style="mso-ansi-language: EN-US;">- director</span></div><div>- script </div><div>- writer</div><div><br /></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/a/AVvXsEhXP3c77Afp34QDOe4tZjjF4ffrqOb2ZI5JZdy3QzDWtFexj0dny4H7-7_VOVlAH7vC15RqJU_nPdzHj90Oi8O9FBXKnJ1lyedAkXGW8tenozTcgal0s86MbH3LZNWy-58sHrXkWF5YaUBf2jenMO4lTuMu8cn3quWZVZW1UqguAW2H3DcMxIbdv95q=s351" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" data-original-height="301" data-original-width="351" height="274" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/a/AVvXsEhXP3c77Afp34QDOe4tZjjF4ffrqOb2ZI5JZdy3QzDWtFexj0dny4H7-7_VOVlAH7vC15RqJU_nPdzHj90Oi8O9FBXKnJ1lyedAkXGW8tenozTcgal0s86MbH3LZNWy-58sHrXkWF5YaUBf2jenMO4lTuMu8cn3quWZVZW1UqguAW2H3DcMxIbdv95q=s320" width="320" /></a></div><br /><div><br /></div>tripperhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/02822373885313616261noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6935174400894418723.post-26757162052898695752021-10-31T07:23:00.001-07:002021-10-31T07:23:19.322-07:00Formal Letter - Application For a Film Course<p style="text-align: center;"><span style="font-size: large;"> Certificate of Advanced English - Sample Formal Letter</span></p><h4 style="text-align: center;"><span style="font-size: large;">Application For a Film Course</span></h4><div><p class="MsoNormal"><span lang="EN-US" style="mso-ansi-language: EN-US;">Dear Mrs …..,<o:p></o:p></span></p>

Air Travel and Environmental Pollution</h2>
<div>
<br /></div>
<h3 style="text-align: center;">
IELTS Essay Sample: Writing Task 2 </h3>
<div>
<br /></div>
<i>Air travel causes environmental pollution, so many people believe that there should be an increase in the price of air tickets in order to reduce air traffic.</i><br />
<i><br /></i>
<i>Do you agree or disagree?</i><br />
<br />
Travelling by plane is without doubt the most preferable means of transport for long distances nowadays. It is not only comfortable and fast, but also cheap. These are the main reasons why it is accessible to many people, despite its drawbacks such as pollution and loud noise.<br />
<br />
On the one hand, air crafts contaminate the air far more than a car or a bus, but that is understandable considering the size. Another problem of crucial importance that these vehicles cause is deafening noise they produce. This, in all probability, leaves the areas around airports either not habitable or a bad choice to buy house in. That's why some people insist on decreasing the level of air traffic. A possible solution could be if governments interfere and raise the cost of passenger flights.<br />
<br />
On the other hand, by taking these measures, air travel instantly turns into a luxury that only well-to-do people can afford. It is also quite conceivable that many aspects in our society will be affected, such as trade between long - distance countries and tourism. Although this is a restriction for people who want to explore the world, I believe that many of them won't be stopped. They will simply find another way of travelling, which is likely to lead to pollution again, as well as congestions and irritated drivers.<br />
<br />
In conclusion, air traffic is without question causing problems, but the way I see it, trying to solve them is like adding fuel to the fire and will only bring more trouble. Aircraft have become indispensable part of out lives and there is no turning back.<br />

Are non - academic subjects beneficial for the prospective university students? </h2>
<div>
<br /></div>
<h3 style="text-align: center;">
IELTS Task 2 - sample essay</h3>
<br />
School subjects such as physical education and cookery are included in the syllabus, despite the fact that they are not studied later on academic level. Whether this is beneficial or more of a hindrance for the prospective university students is a matter of opinion.<br />
<br />
On the one hand, non-academic subjects are meant to be amusing and appealing to youngsters. Bearing in mind that students have been put under pressure since elementary school, non-academic subjects are a good way to relieve stress. Even though some people consider these subjects worthless, they are actually preparing kids for real life situations. What is the point of knowing how the Universe works when you can't cook a proper meal? Needless to say that physical education and sports are important for every growing up child's health and physical shape.<br />
<br />
On the other hand, education is becoming more and more demanding. Children are pressured to decide what they want to be when they grow up despite the fact that they are still knee high. For that reason non-academic subjects will be of no avail for pursuing a career.<br />
<br />
On balance, if school subjects are entirely focused on serious matter it is quite conceivable that it will help students in their academic education. Regardless of that fact, I hold the view that school shouldn't turn into a place where we only study how to do our jobs in the future.<br />

IELTS ESSAY - Writing Task Two</h3>
<div>
<br /></div>
<div lang="zxx" style="margin-bottom: 0cm;">
Physical education is an
integral part of the school curriculum. However, more and more people
consider this subject useless and are reluctant to do it. In my
opinion, doing sports makes our lives better because it is essential
for our health. This is why sports classes should play an even more
important role in our education.</div>
<div lang="zxx" style="margin-bottom: 0cm;">
<br /></div>
<div lang="zxx" style="margin-bottom: 0cm;">
First of all, because of
sports we are able to keep in good shape. Thus we develop our muscles
and become more flexible, as well. Physical education at school also
teaches is a great variety of sports like football, basketball,
volleyball, etc. For example, it has been observed that children who
have sports classes in their schools have less health problems. If
teachers are well-prepared with different type of exercises we would
be able to keep fit. So, physical education has a great influence on
improving out fitness.
</div>
<div lang="zxx" style="margin-bottom: 0cm;">
<br /></div>
<div lang="zxx" style="margin-bottom: 0cm;">
What is more, sports teach
self-discipline. Exercising makes us more organised and gives us the
opportunity to figure out a proper schedule of our activities. For
example, if physical education is the first class, we have to wake up
early in order to prepare ourselves and do warming up, so as not to
pull any muscles during the training. Furthermore, self-discipline
helps us get over the problems against the odds. This is why
teachers put great effort into teaching their students to be
disciplined.
<br />
<br /></div>
<div lang="zxx" style="margin-bottom: 0cm;">
To sum up, both aspects show
the positive side of physical education. I totally disagree with the
statement that this subject has no place in the school curriculum. In
my opinion, people should look on the bright side of sports classes
because they may be very beneficial to our lives.

Natural disasters - Sample IELTS essay</h2>
<h4 style="text-align: center;">
Writing Task 2 </h4>
<br />
When a disaster, such as an earthquake or flood happens, media spread the news like wildfire. Such natural hazards have always been grabbing the attention of the public. But are they the real risk?<br />
<br />
First of all, natural disasters are, to all appearances, powerful and exciting to watch to some extent. They ruin infrastructure of cities, cause chaos among citizens and usually have devastating consequences. For one reason or another, a lot of attention is paid to them even if they haven't taken any lives.<br />
<br />
On the other hand, there are accidents that take far more human lives, but are not that 'viral' ti be discussed by the media. As opposed to disasters, accidents on the road, for instance, happen regularly. Each and every day there are people who die from diseases, violent criminals or even unlucky accidents at home.<br />
<br />
One of the main reasons for this is the fact that most people simply don't know how to react when such things happen. They have no idea how to properly secure their home, who to call when they see a crime and how to drive safely.<br />
<br />
In my view, people need to be better educated about the real risks their surroundings hide and the ways they can be prevented. Although natural hazards cause a lot of damage, there is hardly anything we can do to prevent them. We should better concentrate on the risks that our everyday lives face us with.<br />

IELTS Essay Writing Task 2 - example </h4>
<br />
Through all our lives we are being assessed. In order to go to a school, university, to be hired for a job. We are given tests since kindergarten. According to the educational system, this way it can be estimated how much of the material a student has learned. But is this really the right approach to find what a kid is good at?<br />
<br />
First of all, if the material is presented in an interesting and comprehensive way, there is a better chance for it to be understood. Any subject at school can be pleasant if it is put into practice. All tests that students do contain only a theoretical part, which usually appears to be confusing. As a matter of fact, failing an exam can discourage a kid from learning the subject. It can also make him or her feel insecure and under pressure.<br />
<br />
What is more, teachers lose time assessing their students and having to prepare the tests. Instead, they could use this time in class to revise the lessons kids didn't understand and explain them more clearly. A good teacher A good teacher can assess their students during the lesson and they doesn't need a test for that.<br />
<br />
In my view, exams are necessary as long as they are not given too often. Personally, I believe that, if student actually understood lessons, there wouldn't be any necessity of a test. Therefore, more attention should be paid to the material is presented.<br />
<br />

Should meat be banned from the cafeteria?</h2>
<h3 style="text-align: center;">
Sample Certificate of Advanced English Essay</h3>
<br />
It is typical of every person to include meat products in his or her daily meal as meat contains a lot of vital elements for the human body. However, some people choose a different way of life - they regard themselves as 'vegetarians', which means they stay away from meat and do not eat it for many reasons. But should meat be banned from the cafeteria and what would be the disadvantages of such a restriction?<br />
<br />
First of all, almost all vegetarians believe that without meat we would live healthier. It is thought that natural products such as fruit and vegetables consist of enough important elements, so they can successfully replace meat. As a matter of fact, the number of this important ingredients in natural products cannot be compared to the one in meat. For example, scientists have written thousands of articles about the significance of meat products and that we should eat various food.<br />
<br />
Secondly, many people think that it would be better for the environment if there is no meat consumption. They might be right to some degree but it would be against our nature as carnivores. For instance, every carnivore on the planet has to kill other animals for food and it has not affected the environment and even this is how the balance in nature is preserved.<br />
<br />
To sum up, meat is an integral part of our daily diet. In my view, everyone is free to choose what to eat and this is why meat should not be banned from our cafeteria.<br />

What is the point of buying a newspaper in our modern world? </h2>
<br />
<h4 style="text-align: center;">
Model Answer - IELTS Writing Task 2</h4>
<br />
Nowadays the Internet is easily accessible and indispensable part of our lives. Its storage is so enormous that it exceeds all newspaper contents in the world altogether. So, considering the fact that we have this unlimited source of information, what is the point of buying a newspaper in our modern world?<br />
<br />
On the one hand, the touch of a real printed paper for some people has a sentimental value. Also, they don't search for some specific information, but rather prefer to be amused by whatever the publisher had decided. Others have even formed a habit of buying a newspaper every day because they find this way of learning what's going around the world the most pleasant one. Moreover, there are still people who don't have access to Internet or don't know how to use a web browser, so newspaper companies won't bankrupt yet.<br />
<br />
On the other hand, the Internet offers a far wider variety of options. Firstly, you can quickly find information on any subject that is currently of interest to you. You can save yourself the trouble of going through all the newspaper articles that you find useless. Secondly, you can use the Internet in almost every part of the planet even if you are on the road.<br />
<br />
In conclusion, I believe that newspapers will always have their impact on society but there are today fewer people who read them than there were in the past. The Internet is the most effective source of information for our generation.<br />

Animals testing essay - IELTS Writing Task 2 Sample </h2>
<br />
<i><br /></i>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<i><i>Examine the arguments in favour of and against animal experiments, and come to a conclusion on this issue.</i></i></div>
<br />
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
Before a new medical treatment or a product that concerns human health can be put on the market, it has to go through a set of tests to make sure it is safe. These tests unfortunately often involve animals. So, aren't our actions going against Nature and is there a more humane alternative to animal testing?<br />
<br />
On the one hand, the surest way to see if a new medicine could cure a person without side effects is to test it on one. The closest living creatures that have similar features to ours are animals and that makes them suitable for experimentation. As a matter of fact, if such experiments weren't conducted, many people would be dead due to wrong product formula.<br />
<br />
On the other hand, scientists use not only rats in their laboratories, but also animals of higher intelligence. They allow themselves to carry out experiments for any kind of purpose. Usually, animals are put in a cage with miserable conditions while waiting for their excruciating death. Many cosmetic companies and scientists with extravagant ideas use animal testing for their own purposes. But no matter what the goal is, such experiments will always appear inhumane.<br />
<br />
This is the main reason why researchers are trying so hard to find an alternative with the development of software and electronics we are now closer to it than ever. Whether it is a human body simulator or some advanced computer algorithm, researchers are a step forward.<br />
<br />
In conclusion, being the superior species on this planet doesn't mean that we are allowed to use all other living creatures for our own benefit. We should find another way to test our products, stop using animals for our next deadly idea and just let Nature run its course.<br />

CAE Proposal - The Ideal Workplace</h2>
<h4>
<br /></h4>
<h4>
Introduction</h4>
<div>
<br /></div>
<div>
Many people find it hard to get used to their workplace. We were asked to write a proposal for an ideal workplace. We conducted a survey in our city and questioned over 50 people about their jobs. </div>
<h4>
<br /></h4>
<h4>
Background Information</h4>
<div>
<br /></div>
<div>
After undertaking the research, it was clear that the worst problem is the noise. The interviewed claim that it is very hard to concentrate while mobile phones are permanently ringing and general issues are discussed. That is why many prefer working on their own in separate offices. But the rest of the interviewed pointed out that co-operating with their colleagues maintains their motivation and mood. </div>
<h4>
<br /></h4>
<h4>
Suggestions</h4>
<div>
<br /></div>
<div>
Although different workers aspire to different conditions at work in our opinion, any workplace should meet some requirements to achieve overall comfort</div>
<div>
<ul>
<li>The working place has to be light an bright, so no one would feel claustrophobic</li>
<li>The noise should be reduced; in this way people will be able to concentrate </li>
<li>Working as a team will be a strong motivation for everyone</li>
<li>Refreshments and snacks should be available at any time</li>
</ul>
<h4>
<br /></h4>
<h4>
Conclusion</h4>
</div>
<div>
<br /></div>
<div>
If these recommendations are followed, the conditions of any workplace will be improved.</div>

Is it better to shop in small local shops or big supermarkets?</h2>
<div>
<br /></div>
<h3 style="text-align: center;">
FCE Cambridge Essay example</h3>
<div>
<br /></div>
Choosing where to go shopping is important and there are a few things you must have in mind but it usually it depends on one's opinion <i>(T.N. - not clear)</i>. Here's why?<br />
<br />
Supermarkets are always full of high-quality products from all around the world, which are not available in small local shops, but it is really common for local shops to offer goods that can't be found in supermarkets. <i>(T.N. - Only 1 sentence; not clear, contradictory)</i>.<br />
<br />
Usually, big supermarket chains sell their goods at good prices and often do sales, whereas local shops' products are rarely on sale and the stock is usually a bit more expensive. However, sometimes you might find small shops, in which goods that are not out of date are being sold really cheap.<br />
<br />
Another problem is that sometimes you might not live near a supermarket and might not have the time to go to one, so you'd go to a local shop instead.<br />
<br />
In conclusion, people usually choose where to shop from depending on their preferences. Since the difference in prices is not big, personally I'd just go to the closest shop.<br />
<br />

<div>
<br /></div>
A lot of people decide to learn foreign language because they want to be able to communicate with people from foreign countries or because they want to get a good job. There could be a lot of reasons why they do it, but which of them are the most important ones? (T.N. At least 2 sentences; a question and give example)<br />
<br />
On the one hand, in a lot of jobs people need to be able to speak foreign language or it is advisable to speak. There are some jobs that you can't do if you don't speak a certain language. The more languages you speak, the bigger chance you have to get a good job. (T.N. You are repeating the same thing 3 times)<br />
<br />
In addition, there are a lot of people who travel to foreign countries. They might want to speak the language they need before they go there. (T.N. 1-2 more sentences. Example)<br />
<br />
On the other hand, there are people who think that they don't have to learn foreign languages because they can use translators or look up the words in dictionaries. They think it is a waste of time learning foreign languages. (T.N. - Paraphrase)<br />
<br />
In conclusion, I think it is worth learning foreign languages because if you speak foreign language you can communicate with foreigners and you can get a good job. (T.N. You repeat the introduction. Point out which is more important. At least 2 sentences.)<br />

<br />
Hi Jim,<br />
<br />
I got your e-mail yesterday. I was excited to finally hear from you, although the news is not best.<br />
<br />
I am sorry for your health problems. But what is this thing with smoking? Do you have problems with your friends, family or school? If so, do you get some kind of satisfaction from smoking? I have heard that it helps with anger and anxiety, but boy is it worth it! This may cause your asthma. You'd better talk to your parents and a doctor if you haven't yet.<br />
<br />
Last night I made a close study on the internet about possible ways to give up smoking. I came across some really interesting solutions, which I will send you later. In many blogs people share their experience and say that you need a strong will and supportive friends. Think about your future. You've got the chance to win a scholarship and study technology. You've been dreaming of this since you were 6. Don't throw away your chances by doing pointless things. I hope you will think over my advice.<br />
<br />
I am looking forward to hearing from you again soon,<br />
Hugs,<br />
Marta<br />

UK and USA energy consumption charts </h2>
<br />
<h3 style="text-align: center;">
IELTS Writing Task 1 - Model Answer </h3>
<br />
The given graphical illustrations present data on the types of energy sources that were used in the UK and the USA in two different years.<br />
<br />
As it can be seen, oil consumption increased slightly in both countries during the period 2000 to 2006. This resource was also the most used one in the USA with 37% in 2000 and 40% in 2006. The US, however, was most dependent on coal in 2000, but this tendency declined steeply over time. In both countries, the consumption of gas rose significantly from 20% to 38% in the UK and from 15% to 25% in the USA. By contrast, the consumption of nuclear power and other renewable sources followed a downward trend.<br />
<br />
In conclusion, we can say that oil remained one of the most used energy sources during these six years for both countries. The consumption of coal decreased, while the consumption of gas increased and both changes were significant.<br />

Many people are choosing to live on their own. Is this a positive or a negative trend? What is your opinion and share your personal experiences?</h2>
<br />
<h3 style="text-align: center;">
IELTS Writing Task 2 model answer</h3>
<br />
Living with a family, friends or alone is a matter of choice. A lot of people tend to make such a decision when they finish school, university or change their job. While some prefer to stay with their parents even after graduation or tie the knot and start a new family, others find the life of their own more entertaining.<br />
<br />
On the one hand, living only by yourself comes hand in hand with a lot of responsibilities. This way people learn how to deal with money, be more practical and make decisions when a problem occurs at home. However, it gets lonely from time to time and that's the reason why some seek for a roommate. This way of living is extremely popular among youngsters, though more and more people live like this permanently.<br />
<br />
On the other hand, getting married, having kids and growing old together is society's ideal. The biological purpose of every living creature is to reproduce. For that matter, if humans cease creating families, this is likely to lead to a negative impact on our civilization. Even though unmarried life is considered a guilty pleasure when everyone is happy - go - lucky, there comes time when we realise that family is the real fortune.<br />
<br />
In conclusion, everybody has their own picture of how to live and with whom. However, I believe that, as we are born in a family we should also end our lives in one.<br />

Banning meat from school cafeteria </b></h2>
<div>
<b><br /></b></div>
<h3 style="text-align: center;">
Certificate of Advanced English Essay sample.</h3>
<b></b><br />
Nowadays more and more people become vegetarians because that is supposed to be a healthier way of life. It's accepted that when people don't eat meat, it's beneficial for them. But is it normal to ban meat from school cafeteria?<br />
<br />
The first advantage is that banning meat from the canteen is healthier for everyone but it is natural and normal to eat meat. Meat is essential for people's organism. What's more, if we all become vegetarians, do we have to ban also milk, cheese and eggs? For children it is important to eat food which provides calcium, such as milk and dairy products. Of course, children need to lead a healthy life and it will be better for them to eat mainly fruits and vegetables but it is also important to have a personal choice to eat whatever they want.<br />
<br />
The second thing we have to consider is that there will be a better environment if there is no meat consumption. A lot of animals will be saved from slaughters and returned to their natural habitats. On the other hand, banning meat from one school won't save many animals. It would have results if cities stopped eating meat. But here comes again people's right to eat whatever they want.<br />
<br />
To sum up, not eating meat is definitely a healthier way of life. In my opinion school canteens should provide a wider range of healthy meals, including more vegetables and fruits, but also meat because vegetarian meal choices can seem limited.

Solution to traffic problem</h2>
<h3 style="text-align: center;">
CAE Essay sample</h3>
<div>
<br /></div>
<div>
Traffic has always been a major problem for people in big cities. As population grows, it is getting harder and harder for the government and the police to handle this issue. How much time will pass till someone comes up with a possible solution?</div>
<div>
<br /></div>
<div>
One alternative is providing exclusive lanes for public transport. If tube and bus systems extend, people will be able to reach their work places easier by using public transport. According to a recent study, getting to a definite spot by the tube is faster that reaching it by car, because of traffic lights and pedestrians. So these exclusive lanes will definitely reduce the use of cars. Thus traffic and pollution will drop. </div>
<div>
<br /></div>
<div>
Another approach is to introduce a congestion charge for vehicles accessing the city centre. This might dissuade people from using their cars too much. Undoubtedly, the collected money could be used for improving the existing technology. Preserving the environment is also an important issue. </div>
<div>
<br /></div>
<div>
I believe that providing exclusive lanes for public transport is the greater priority. The local authorities should take care of the traffic issue. After that, further measures against pollution could be taken. </div>
<div>
<br /></div>

When I finished school a month ago, I decided to take up a new sport as I have a lot of spare time I chose yoga. I know it sounds crazy but I find it exciting and also relaxing.<br />
I heard on the radio that a new yoga group for beginners will be formed in the local sports centre. I decided to give it a go as I had listened and read a lot about this kind of exercise. <br />
At my first yoga class I felt a bit disappointed. All we did was sit in a definite position and get introduced to each other. I was thrilled about experiencing a variety of moves and positions. Luckily, in the second session we started doing those things we have all seen on TV! It turns out that it takes many skills, a lot of energy and patience to do certain exercises. To my surprise, yoga is really tiring. After every yoga class I go home half - dead! But it still eventually makes me feel relaxed and at ease.<br />
Another positive side is that I don't need any special equipment. Only comfortable clothes and a yoga rug is what I need indeed. If you don't have such a rug, you can use the ones in the sports centre.<br />
I will drop you a line soon about my new hobby.<br />
Lots of love,<br />
............ (name)<br />

What can local councils do in order to solve the traffic congestion problem?</h2>
<br />
People nowadays use more and more their cars to travel around the city. This, on its side, causes traffic congestions and troubles pedestrians, as well. But what can local councils do in order to solve this major problem?<br />
<br />
The first possible option is to bring into use more busses. It will also matter if metro trams become more frequent. Thus, people may use less their cars as there would be a more convenient and faster way of travelling. This, without doubt, will reduce traffic congestions. People will move around the city easier and more comfortable using public transport.<br />
<br />
Another alternative is building new roads. If streets are widened, there will be more space for cars. In addition, more people will be able to travel without getting stuck in congestions. On the other hand, this can limit the space for pedestrians. For example, if people want to go somewhere on foot, they won't be able to do so. This means that pavements are as important as roads. The lack of pavements (?) can lead to the use of more vehicles and more traffic, of course.<br />
<br />
All things considered, I believe that public transport is the most pressing priority. It would, undoubtedly, facilitate people's movement and decrease traffic. All citizens will definitely benefit from this investment.<br />

<b>The advantages of working from home </b></h2>
<h3 style="text-align: center;">
<b>CAE writing task example (semi - formal)</b></h3>
<div>
<b><br /></b></div>
<div>
<b>1. not travelling</b></div>
<div>
<b>2. flexibility</b></div>
<div>
<b>3. comfort</b></div>
<div>
<b><br /></b></div>
<div>
Nowadays more and more people opt for working from their home, rather than travelling to their office daily. Thus they also feel more comfortable. But which of this two advantages is more important?</div>
<div>
<br /></div>
<div>
The first option is to consider the possibility not to drive to your workplace every day. This is essential for people, who live in suburbs or far from their work. Moreover, mothers who recently gave birth to a child, will benefit from it, as well.</div>
<div>
<br /></div>
<div>
However, they might complain of isolation and loneliness. Since the workplace provides a location to meet people and make friends, professionals working from home have difficulty in staying in touch with their colleagues. </div>
<div>
<br /></div>
<div>
Another asset of home working is the comfortable environment people are used to living in. For many, the physical proximity to family and the convenience of being at home is tremendously comforting. If they go to work every day, they might complain about the lack of communication with their loved ones. The comfort of the home helps people to maintain a healthier lifestyle as well, because they will be able to take a rest, where they want and it will prevent them from being stressed. </div>
<div>
<br /></div>
<div>
In conclusion, I would say that both the advantage of not constantly travelling and comfort are important. I believe that we benefit more from comfort as it is a crucial factor for our health. </div>

Raising Money for Charities</h2>
<div>
<br /></div>
<h4>
Introduction</h4>
<div>
The aim of this report is to involve young offenders in charities with the purpose to collect money for people in need. I conduct a survey among young offenders and officers responsible for them.<br />
<br /></div>
<h4>
General Information</h4>
<div>
It seems that everyone is sure that this will have a positive effect on the offenders. They will be motivated to organise and participate in different charities. Also, they should work hard to do something positive. The main purpose of the project is to encourage young offenders to change their attitude for good. Collecting money for people in need is a big positive aspect of the project, as well.<br />
<br /></div>
<h4>
The charities</h4>
<div>
It was decided that offenders should take part in charities because the experience would provide important life skills for them. For instance, they could organise jumble sales. They can display their old belongings, such as clothes, toys, books and even handmade items. </div>
<div>
<br /></div>
<div>
Another way offenders can raise money is to wash cars. According to them, this is a kind of fun way (!!! informal) to collect money.<br />
<br /></div>
<h4>
Results of the project</h4>
<div>
All the raised money could be donated for different good causes, like: </div>
<div>
<br /></div>
<div>
<ul>
<li>children in need</li>
<li>homeless people</li>
<li>elderly people with small income</li>
</ul>
<h4>
<br /></h4>
<h4>
Conclusion</h4>
</div>
<div>
To summarise, the project has benefits for both sides. On the one hand, young offenders will understand the impact of offending behaviour. On the other, the project will help them to change their attitude towards ........ Moreover, a lot of money could be raised for people in need. It is the best step in the right direction.</div>

CAE example Proposal - improving the living conditions in my neighbourhood in order to make it better for the next generation</h2>
<br />
<h4>
Introduction</h4>
<div>
In this proposal I will present recommendation for developing and improving the living conditions in my neighbourhood in order to make it better for the next generation. I undertook research through a survey and on the Internet. </div>
<div>
<br /></div>
<h4>
Background Information </h4>
<div>
It is clear that we should do our best to make improvement for future generations. First of all, we should think about the environmental issues. The air is very polluted due to the many cars around the neightbourhood. Moreover, when we walk around the houses or when we take walks in the parks we can see a lot of rubbish left on the ground. In my neighbourhood, there are enough leisure centres, although we can think about the lack of playgrounds for the children. The only thing that is missing is a kindergarten. Parents are taking their kids every morning to the closest kindergarten, which is in the nearby neighbourhood. It will be easier for them if the city council builds a kindergarten in our living area. </div>
<div>
<br /></div>
<h4>
Recommendation </h4>
<div>
<br /></div>
<div>
The local city council should do best to please the citizens and improve the living conditions in my neighbourhood. I recommend that:</div>
<div>
<br /></div>
<div>
<ul>
<li>the car access in the neighbourhood should be restricted</li>
<li>there should be placed rubbish bins at most places around neighbourhood </li>
<li>more places should be created for children's entertainment, like playgrounds, cinemas, bowling centres, etc. </li>
<li>at least one kindergarten should be built</li>
</ul>
</div>
<h4>
Conclusion</h4>
<div>
I am positive that if all these recommendations are followed, then the current situation will be greatly improved. </div>
<div>

Describe a lesson you learned the hard way</h2>
<h4 style="text-align: center;">
Sample descriptive composition</h4>
<div>
<br /></div>
<div>
Most people say childhood is full of innocence, joy and happiness. In my view, the disappointments and sorrow that we experience that period are decisive in shaping our character. This bad side helps kids develop something like an immune system by teaching them some of the most important lessons in life.</div>
<div>
<br /></div>
<div>
When I was seven years old my parents bought me a bicycle for my birthday. It took me a long time to learn to ride. My legs were bruised of falling. I would make long rides around the neighbourhood. The thing I liked most was when we gathered with friends, steered our bicycles in the direction of a small stream and spent almost all day there. We called ourselves "The ..... ......" named after a popular movie. </div>
<div>
<br /></div>
<div>
After several months I was more confident and well - balanced on the bike, but there was still the problem with the breakes. I didn't use them, just slowed down and jumped off the bicycle. That extreme experience often increased the risk of falling.</div>
<div>
<br /></div>
<div>
As one of the girls didn't have a bicycle, the others took turns in cycling her on the frame. One day when we were ciclying to the stream, I was due to have ........ - the girl without a bicycle, behind me on the frame. I felt nervous and that influenced my steering. The bike didn't go straight. It zigzagged under our weight. That was the first time I had ridden with another person and it happened to be the last one.</div>
<div>
<br /></div>
<div>
On the road to the stream there was a dangerous downward slope. I was aware of that and when we approached it, I slowed down boldly, but in vain. The bicycle frel down at a high speed. The last thing I remember was that ...... jumped off. A few minutes later I found myself lying on the road with hands on the head. Looking around I saw nobody but ......... Her eyes were filled with tears and her knees were bleeding. All the others had fled away. Maybe they were afraid of their parents' shouting at them because of the accident. I lay motionless with the bike beside me. ....... helped me stand on my feet and I leant against here shoulder.</div>
<div>
<br /></div>
<div>
Now, when I recall that time I realise this sad experience was the first more serious slap in my face. It wasn't so because the pain was unbearable but because the people I had considered my "best friends" did nothing to help us. It may seem ridiculous, but I think that better experience did me a favour. Now I'm a changed person look with different eyes at friend's loyalty. </div>
