kids can learn math earlier at home

There is a Father, and he is teaching his 18monthes son how to count the numbers during lunch. He is teaching his kids about math invisible, because he just asks his son to count the chicken nuggets which are on his plate. Also, he asks his four years old daughter to indentify the shapes of something that she can see in the park. Many parents don't care too much about math skills before the kids go to the preschool, but math is getting more attention than before.

No Benifits of Tenning

More and more people like to be tan, and most of the teenagers go to the tanning salons. A local surgeon of the Health-system suggest people who are under age 35 do not go to tanning salon and use tanning bed. According to the documents, people who are younger than 35 who start tanning will increase the skin cancer 75percent. As a teenager i know lots of girls want to be tan, so the indoor tanning is popular such as tanning bed. Tanning bed can also increase the risk of skin cancer, but the business people want to make money from it so they avoid to mention anything about skin cancer and they even advertize saying the tanning bed can provide vitamin C. My personal opinion is better not to do extra things to be tan, maybe our netual color is the best.

argument paragraph

    A passing score on an English achievement test should not be the main requirement for international students to enter any school in an English-speaking country. As an international student, I don’t support this requirement. There are three cons. First of all, English is not the international students’ native language so if they don’t get higher score they will miss the chance to go to a school in the English-speaking country. To speak another language is extremely difficult especially when the students are already growing in their own language for many years. I think it’s unfair to only concern about the test for the international students.  Second, the best way to learn a new language is to participate into the speaking environment, so if the students don’t get any chances to join the English environment their English will never get better. The last reason is that teenagers can study the different cultures faster, they might not have much problems when they live in different countries even though they don’t quit know how to speak the language. Some people only concern about the test scores but don’t care about the students' personalities and so on. However, the grades can’t tell you anything about the person, so the test score should not be required for the international students.

narrative paragraph

        I had done many childish mistakes when i was a little inmature girl, but this mistake was the worse that i still cant get rid of it. I had a chance to go to my grandmother's home in the summer, and my mom asked me to give my grandma two hundred Yuan. As soon as i got the money i took one hundred into my pocket and told my grandma that there was only one hundred yuan for her. However, my grandma and my mom talked about the money accidently, and obviously they both knew that i was lying. after that, i got a serious punishment. My mom kick my eyes with her high heels, and i was injured in the hospital for a while. As a result, i havent done anything like this after i made the big mistake and also i realized how much resibonsible i should pay if i lie.
