  1. The world’s population grows large every day, and with population growth come greater consumption of all kinds of materials. Now, rainforests cover only six percent of the earth, and experts believe that we may destroy these rainforests completely in less than forty years. Due to this, global warming becomes the most serious environment problem. How to save the environment? What should do in the future?
    First, we should be a vegetarian. It is good for health, and also good for environment. Furthermore, farm animals add to the problem of global warming.
    Second, we should interdict fell rainforests. Because it naturally takes in carbon dioxide and puts out oxygen which helps keep our atmosphere clean.

  4. It is very difficult to talk about our future. Because nobody know what will be happened in future. But we can think and wish or make plan for our future, what we should do and what we must avoid. I must take care of my son and keep him in my priority all the time, until he grow up and can take care of himself. However I must have brother and sister for my son, so he will not be lonely. On the other hand I must take care of my health also my husband health too. I should work hard to improve my speaking and listening, because this is my goal. I might try to take some different courses in different things to also improve my all skills. With all of these improvements I might find a good job for me when I get back home next year.

  7. I'm convinced that my future will be much better than I expect, I am a person who can work well under different pressures .

    I must finish the academic study of graduate program , then, I will start my career.
    My first goal is to have a job in the financial field, perhaps I will search in the senior positions .
    My personal career is to run property management office, own interior design center and own my coffee shop to meet friends and spend some times out of work.

    The last target for me is to create programs that help people around the world in (fighting poverty and education )

    To achieve all my dreams I must finish school first . With enough time I might be prepared to have diploma degree in International relations.
    In addition , I have to study some courses in the real estate and the interior design.

    So , I think I will do well and I should do well to complete all that .

  10. TOPIC2:

    Human life is including many of unusual,special "surprising" events. or even in another words we can say-
    an embarrasing incidents.
    But, the neaning of this couple of words are not clearly at all!
    Since we have alot of different kinds of people among our society, different thoughs and cultures, each single person will definite "an incident" on his special, unique way.
    therefore, there is no certain definition to that.
    i am going to share an embarrasing event that was happened to me during my life, in the age 0f 18 years old. By the time i finished high-school, me and my friends were planing to go for an extremly wonderful club in Tel Aviv city.
    That time, everyone had been talking a bout this party . it was called " the party of the year".
    Finally we arrived..i actually wore my new suit that i had bought especially for this event.
    Everthing was really exciting! (until the terrible main point that was happened).
    I was enjoying the music and also the dancing.
    I was enjoying soo much- the dancing- then suddenly my pants ripped. honestly , i was in completly shock and had no idea what i am going to do!
    everyone could have seen my underwear:( .
    it was a stunning event- ever!
    In that point , i was thinking to myself " i must return home". i couldn't have stayed like that! then i called to my Mom , her advice was:
    " Hey Karen, wake up please, you should go back home immdiately.." .
    Buy on the other hand, all my friends were screaming on me- saying that i may not have left them.
    I found myself thinking about a solution, asked my best friend if she had some cloths in her car.
    i thought she might have had her dress there from the last night..
    Fortunately, she answered: "Correct"!
    In short, my incident was really embarrasing, moreover, surprising at the end.
    It was like a movie with a good, happy ending!

    (hope ur enjoyed)

    karen.
    :)

  11. 1. When I was a 17-year-old girl, I should have studied hard. If I should have studied hard, I could have gone to better university. And I should have gone to the U.S, when I was high school student for my study, but I didn't. Because I wasn't interested in study, I should have experienced more .

  13. In a picture of my future, I will be a businesswoman with a happy family in Vietnam. First, I will finish English program next year. And then, I should go on to study at the U.H. in a business major. While studying at university, I will try to study another language, because I think it should be better for my job. It's may be Japanese or French. Now I'm not sure to decide it. Besides, I ought to find a part-time job at school. I want to work in library because I could read books and look at other people studying when I am free. Before I come back to VN, I will learn how to cook some American foods, and I will make them for my parents. I will work hard and try to apply well all knowledge that I learned in the U.S.I will also spend my time to take care of my parents. We will have a happy life together. Things will come true when I focus on my study from now on.

  15. When I was a high school student, I liked mathematics and my scores was good. However, when I was in 12 grade, my scores got a little worse. Really I wanted to be a math teacher, but because of worse math scores, I hesitated to major in mathematics. Finally, I changed my major. After 7 years, I regretted my decision, so I transferred to another university and at last majored in mathematics. After 2years, in the end, I became a math teacher. when I was in 12 grade, I shouldn't have given up my dream, and I should have majored in mathematics in the university. Above all, I should have studied harder. If I had done, I could have saved the time.

  17. It was the first car crash that I have gotten. At that day, I picked up my phone and talked with a friend of mine. After we finished our conversation several seconds later, I got the crash. I should not have picked up the call. If I talked to somebady while I were driving, I could not concentrate on driving. I should have told her I was driving, and then put the phone down. I should have stopped if I really need talk to her.
