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.
