Young drivers-More Accidents?

In the last years, young drivers are involved in accidents. Those road accidents have many causes but amongst young people the major reasons are the innocence, the imprudence and the alcohol influence. For instance, a youth celebrated his 18 th birthday in a club, he drank a lot of alcohol and he drove home in his own car. 15 minutes later, an accident occured, two were badly injured and one died - the birthday boy.

An organization of accident victims has recently proposed that the age for getting a driver's license should be raised to 19. In my opinion, this suggestion is unfair. There are many youngsters that are conscious of the danger in the road and they are more cautious than the others. Moreover, there are youngsters whose aim in life is to live, and live a good life without any unnecessary risk, accordingly they should get a driver's license early and not at the age of 19.

There are other possibilities to reduce the road accidents amongst youngsters. First, the government has to reinforce the security amongst the popular clubs and(what?).Besides this(phr.), the educational system has to prepare for the youngsters many lectures and activities, that will demonstrate better the danger in(ww.) the road so youngsters will take into account their movement(ww.) in(ww.) the road.
.
To sum up, this suggestion may have a good intention(phr.) but it is unfair and it prevents the freedom of movement from the youngsters. In my opinion, the government can find better and more effective solutions to this common problem.
Much better. Well done.

The Internet

The Internet is a revolutionary invention that has changed our lives in a very significant way. In our modern society, the Internet is a common phenomenon. Some people consider the Internet as a good invention but others think completely the opposite.

On the one hand, the Internet has its advantages. First, the entire business world is based on the Internet. Most of the transactions are conducted via the Internet, especially between different countries and the Internet has resources that help in the business world. In addition, the Internet has also many options of learning methods. The students are assisted by the Internet in any subject that they look for.

On the other hand, the Internet has so
me disadvantages too. First, there is a danger to children. Children are acquainted with people that they do not know and those people can be found dangerous and they may had evil intentions. Moreover, the Internet has a variety of options and resource that allow people to do their daily errands from the computer, so it causes a lack of physical activity, that can lead to health problems.

In summary, the Internet is useful in business and studying, but can also cause a lot of problems, like involvement with dangerous and unknown people and also cause health problems. In my opinion, the Internet is one of the most effective inventions that ever was invented, and without this wonderful invention the world has to deal whit many difficulties.

The Best Way to Test Students Knowledge

The Bagrut exam is a test which students approach at the conclusion of each year, close to graduation from high school. Students are tested on a large mass of material and they must receive a passing grade to receive a high school diploma. In my opinion,the Bagrut exam allows to check the student's knowledge in the most reliable and safest way.

First, during the Bagrut examination, examiners have to be careful not to allow copying during testing. For example, cell phones must be turned off in the bag and pencil cases will not be allowed on the table. All those precautions rule out the possibility of copying
during the test and in this way we can test the student's knowledge without a chance of cheating.

Additionally, to succeed in the Bagrut exam students have to learn all the material without having to skip even one of the subjects, although the Bagrut exam has a choice of questions and subjects. If students learn this way, they probably will get good grades. But, it's also possible that a student will not choose to learn some of the subjects and as a result of this he can not answer a question from the subjects that can appear on the exam, so he will lose points. This is a sophistication of the authors of the tests to make students learn all the material.
.
In conclusion, The Bagrut exam is the best way to test students' knowledge because test conditions allow doing it in the best and most reliable way. In my opinion,it is the best method ever invented and it will continue to be so.
Good work

"The Best Friend"

Friend,"What does it really mean"?Some people do not give it importance and they consider a friend as well as a familiar. Nevertheless, other people consider their friends as the most important figure in their lives, just like their own family. In my opinion, the qualities of a person cause us to choose this person as our friend. As a result, the qualities are an important part in a friendship between people.

First of all, integrity is one of the most important features in a friend. Honesty is the foundation of friendship between people. Relationships without integrity are based on hypocrisy, so which person is not "worth to be considered as as a friend"?. Dishonesty hurts good relationships because people can not build those good relationships when lies are going around, it is not real.
.
The second important feature in a friend is loyalty. The loyalty allows us to trust our friend. Friends should be loyal to each other so the friendship will be real and honest. Friends who are not loyal are not considered as good friends. For example, if my friend starts with my boyfriend behind my back it is considered that she is not faithful to me, which means I'm not important to her.

In summary,a friendship must be based on loyalty and honesty because these are the most important qualities that prove to us that it is real friendship.

Dear Sir/ Madam,

A week ago I read in the local newspaper that your radio station is looking for a subject for a new program for teenagers. I am writing to you because I would like to suggest an idea for this program. In my opinion, the most suitable subject for teenagers is love.

In your radio program you will help teenagers with their love life or with the difficulties that they may have in a relationship. The program allows you to talk with many teenagers and permit them to tell their problems or worries in this issue. As a result, the listeners can advise or share their opinion. In the same way listeners can get advise too.

In my opinion, this subject is important and many teens will be interested because love is a feeling that is common in our age. We can't control this feeling and sometime it makes us lose control. For this reason, I think that this radio program will help many teenagers to deal with their feelings and conflicts.

Finally, I hope that you will fing a good subject that will interest teenagers.
I will be grateful if you consider my suggestion seriously because I think this program will be successful if you choose it.

Yours truly,
Sara Ishakbayev

"Gadna" Week

"Gadna" Week is a challenging opportunity that has been given to students in the 11th grade. This week caused us know a little more about the army, it prepares us for the army activities. 3 months ago I participated in this trip and I have to admit that now I understand the real meaning of the army.

First of all, we arrived to a military base that is located in the south and on the first day we were given uniforms and divided in to groups. I felt proud to wear the army uniform. Everything there was like the real army, we slept in tents, that were a bit crowded and the shower stall was common to all the girls, it made me feel uncomfortable. The meals included basic food that I am not used to eat but after 2 days I started to adapt to all these new things.

Furthermore, the most thing that I was concerned about was the physical activities. The commander ordered us to run around the base in limited time and if someone didn't obey the order, the commander ordered him to do a few sit-ups. During the second and the third day we did physical activities, that were exhausting, but I have to admit that I surprised my self. I succeeded in all the tasks and sometimes I did them better than the boys. The most interesting and exciting days were the fourth and fifth days when we learned about the rifle. It was so exciting to shoot, I felt like a real soldier.

Finally, the "Gadna" Week was an unforgetable trip that gave me a lot of experience and information that will help me in the future. I enjoyed a lot to participate in this trip and I had a grate opportunity to know new friends. it was wonderful.

Letter of Complaint

Manager travel agency

Tel- Aviv
Dear Sir/Madam,

Last month I traveled to Germany and stayed at your hotel with my husband. I expected for more and I was very disappointed from what I went through. I am writing to you because I wish to complain about the bad service that your hotel offered.

First of all, during the trip your guide wasn't friendly enough and his explanations
weren't comprehensible. he allways was nervous and his behavior made us feel inconvenience. When we asked him questions he refused to reply and ignored us.

Moreover, the room service at the hotel was quite disappoint. Every time I wished to be served, it took them more than an hour to serve me. The room was uncomfortable and dirty and the food was repulsive. During the trip we just wished that this nightmare came to an end, and we got back to home.
.
Finally, I am really disappointed of this exhausting trip and I hope for compensation. I am sure you want your customers to be satisfied, so I wish you to solve this problem as quick as you can.

I look forward to your replay
Yours truly,
