This line graph illustrates the number of visitors over 10 years from two countries Japan and Spain to Canada. The two line fluctuation greatly.
First, the number of Spanish visitors, as shown in the graph, differs from the number of Japanese visitors by 50%. Moreover, the number of Spanish visitors grew significantly from 1996 to 1999. It goes up from 300,000s to 650,000s visitors. Whereas, in 2000 the line graph shows drop 150,000s visitors. After that the line graph shows elevation until 2004. Last move for Spanish line graph shows drop until 2006. That mean the fewest number of visitors from Spain was in 1996. On the other hand, the line graph starts from up thin it comes down. In 1996 to 2001 the line graph shows stabilize between 800,000s to 850,000s visitors. But, from 2001 to 2003 the line drop 300,000s visitors. Last move for Japanese the line graph shows elevation until 2006.
In conclusion, the number of Japanese visitors outnumbered the Spanish visitors during the ten-year period.

5. Argument essay

In the United Arab Emirates, Etisalat blocks internet access to websites deemed counter to the county’s morality standards. In addition, newspapers do not print material which is embarrassing or negative towards the county’s rulers. Whereas, some people say this is individual freedom others say this is part of the culture. In this essay, I will write some points for and against this issue.
There are reasons for why people want Etisalat to leave the internet without blocks. The first point is some countries have different cultures. So, they don’t want blocks. Another point is a different religion. Some people have a different religion or somebody they don’t have religion to stop them from bad things. Yet another point is that some people want to learn more knowledge. They may have to learn some valuable information.
However, there are many reasons for Etisalat blocking internet access. The first point is the children’s reason. Some children don’t know how to use the internet in the right way. Another point is the security issue. Because some websites have too many viruses. Yet another point is terror. Some people send money to the terrorists and this makes a problem for all life.
In general, in my opinion the best way to save our children and our computers and our life is to block internet access from bad sites. People already have many sites to read and gain knowledge from.

4. Argument essay

Today, it seems to be universally accepted that increased education is a good thing, but we have a different way for that. Some students agree that examinations are an unfair way of assessment and should not be used at the HCT. In the essay, I will discuss whether or not examinations should be used for assessment at the HCT.
It is easy to find reasons to use examinations for assessment. One issue is maybe the examinations improve skills, because students will spend much time to study this subject. A second point, sometimes the exams help students to know what they understand and do not understand of the course content. This is due because some students will not study until the examinations time. Finally, we can say they are a fair assessment because the same test is used for all students in the same time.
There are several reasons, however, why we should stop using examination for assessment even in HCT. One point is that the examinations are not a good way for a complete evaluation of a student’s skills and abilities, because the assessment needs time not only one or two hours. As a result, some skills and abilities for some student are not assessed in examination time. Another point is mood problems for students. An example is, the most responsible student has a wife and four to five children that means, sometimes the wife is sick and sometimes the children have problems in school. The last point is those who cheat and share answers. Some students depend on cheating and they do not have skills and abilities.
In conclusion, there are arguments both for and against banning exams. In my opinion if we banned the examinations in HCT this would become better for all students, because they could be fairly as assessed.

3. U.S. Number of Farms & All Farm Workers (1910 – 2000)

The line graph shows the difference between farms and farms workers from 1910 to 2000 in the last century.
First, the biggest change was the dramatic drop in the total number of farms and farm workers. The number of farm worker fell from about 14 million persons in1910 to only around 3 million in 2000. The number of farms fell from about 6 million in 1910 to only around 2 million in 2000. After the third decade the farm workers decrease only one million whereas the farms were almost the same. In 1950, the number fell by almost 3.5 million for the farm workers and about half million for the farms. After two decades from 1950-1970 the line graph shows major changes in both farms and farm workers. The farm workers fell from ten million to around four million and the farms fell by nearly four million. By the end of this century the two lines stabilized somewhere near three million for farm workers and two million for farms in 2000.
In conclusion, the graph shows the social change in lifestyles from farms to other jobs.

2. Changes in Milk Consumption in USA (1950 – 2000)

The graph compares annual consumption of low fat and whole milk in liters per person in the second half of the 20th century in USA. Overall, Americans drink much less milk now than at the start of the period.
The biggest change was the dramatic drop in total milk consumption. It fell from about 130 liters per person in 1950 to only around 90 liters five decades later. The second major was in the type of milk drunk. At the beginning, whole milk was more popular at 120 liters, but it fell sharply to about a quarter that by 2000. In contrast, the amount of low fat milk consumed shot up. It rose from roughly 10 liters in 1950 to five times that in 1980, when consumption was almost tied with whole milk.
In conclusion, the American diet with regard to dairy changes significantly over the time represented. Total consumption decreases but low-fat finally outranks whole milk.

1. Argument essay.

Have you ever considered the fact that every year millions of animals undergo painful death as a result of scientific research? While most people think animal testing is necessary, others are upset by what they see as needless suffering. This essay outlines some of the arguments for and against animal testing.
First, let’s look at the advantages. One very positive point is that many medical treatments and procedures have been developed from such experiments. Since animals share many features with humans, scientists use animals to test the safety and effectiveness of newly developed drugs. Moreover, there is a large supply of animals. Some, such as mice and rats, have many babies, and there is no danger of extinction for these species. Finally some advocates think that animals are less valuable than people. If there is a mistake, it will not cost a human life.
However there are also a number of arguments against animal testing. Perhaps the most important is that animals may be suffering unnecessarily. Critics do not believe that every new drug needs to be tested on animals. Furthermore, some feel animal testing is ineffective; they point out that many drugs still have to be withdrawn from the market despite extensive testing. Last, some campaigners would like to see alternative used. They feel more humane testing is possible and, too, that we could rely more on organ donors.
To conclude, we need to ensure that animals used for experimental purposes do not suffer much pain. Although some animal testing may be unavoidable at present, treating our fellow creatures mercifully will demonstrate our humanity.

This table shows information about seven different forms of transportation in Wales in 1990 and 2005. Altogether, in 1990 people travelled 4,740 miles compared to 6,475 in 2005.
First thing, cars have a big different between all. In 2005 car’s travel’s 4,806 thousand miles whereas 3,199 thousand miles in 1990. This means cars incense between 1990 to 2005. However; there is slit change between walking and bicycle between 1990 to 2005, this depend on people who like to walk and bike. In 1990 people like to travel by other thing but in 2005 is obese. In 2005 people like to take coach, train and taxi more than other transportation.
All in all, we have some different between 1990 and 2005 in transportation, but almost all people like to transport by car, coach, train and taxi.
