Thanks Ish! I will try harder.

Yeah! I'm exploring this forum. Nice to know you Ish and Arjensteve. You guys must be the brave and loyal subjects of Dumbledore :) .

Personally, I think yours is excellent. However, I found few spelling errors and punctuation errors. ...Nevertheless, there are people who feel quite successful although they are not that rich. Success can mean helping a friend in need, managing your job well, finding the person you want to spend the rest of you life with or raising a large family.You can earn just enough money to cover your basic needs but when your family, your friends or even the place you live in and the things you do in your everyday life make you happy, (I think you'd better use a period here)why should you strive for more money? Just my two cents. If you disagree with me, just state your point.

Topic: Do you agree or disagree with the following statement? Parents are the best teachers. Use specific reasons and examples to support your answer. Parents experience life with their children from the beginning of their lives. Hence, they have taught their children many lessons. They are definitely the first teachers of their children but they are not the best teachers. Firstly, parents are closest to their children so it’s difficult to teach their children strictly. For example, it’s time to do homework but their children don’t want to do so. They may wheedle their parents into letting them do it later. Parents always pamper their children so they permit them to do homework later. This increasingly spoils their children. Secondly, parents constantly shape their children interests to be similar to theirs. This makes their children difficult to develop their potential ability. For example, if the parents like music they may want their children to attend music class. Likewise, if the parents like art they may let their children attend art class. However, what if their children are interested in science? Last but not least, because of the differences of generation, parents’ points of view are somewhat narrower than their children’s. For example, their children want to go to some university which is far form their hometown in order to have more experience in live. In contrary, parents prefer their children to attend to university which is near their hometown because they think it is unsafe for them to live far form family. In conclusion, parents might be the good teachers but they are not the best ones. They can’t teach the children strictly, always tend to shape their interests and have the different points of view with their children. Fortunately, we have various teachers during our lives. Therefore, we can learn a lot from them.

Thanks Codename Gordon. I will try harder.

People attend college or university for many different reasons ( for example, new experiences, career preparation, increased knowledge) Why do you think people attend college or university? Use specific reasons and examples to support your answer. Nowadays, people tend to continue to study after graduating from highschool. They mostly choose university or college to study. In my opinion, there are three common reasons for doing that: having academic programs, increasing knowledge, preparing for future career. First of all, people attend college to have academic programs. These programs are completely prepared by academic experts. Therefore, they provide intensive programs for students to major. Moreover, all programs are lectured by experienced professors. These things are just offered in college. The next reason makes people attend college is to increase knowledge. After graduating from high school, many students want to continue to learn at advanced level. College or university might meet their needs. They will get higher education when they attend college or university. To prepare for future career is another reason why people attend college or university. Nowadays, unemployment is definitely a difficult problem to solve. To have a good job, people should be trained by intensive programs which are provided in college or university. After graduating from college, they will get enough preparation for their future career. In brief, people will gain many advantages when attending college or university. They will have academic programs, increase their knowledge and prepare for career. That’s why people increasingly attend college or university these days.
