ESSAY INTRODUCTION (THESIS STATEMENT)

                         ALCOHOL

     CONSUMPTION

Alcohol is a current issue. Owing to its consume, which is more and more precarious, alcohol is becoming a very dangerous problem. Binge drinking can cause serious damages in a body because it is able to destroy an organism directly by alcoholic comas. It can also provoke casualties indirectly due to traffic accidents produced by an excess of alcohol consume.

POLLUTION

Air pollution is a current problem in the whole world. It has been a problem for many years, and it is increasing even more. Pollutants like carbon dioxide, nitrogen oxides, or burned fossil fuels produced by industries or factories, cars and other motor vehicles make the situation go worse, as well as being the causing factors. It has terrible effects on human health, because the polluted air is the air we breathe, which can damage seriously our organism with respiration and heart problems. But also it has effects on the environment, causing terrible disasters like the so called “Greenhouse effect”, or even worse, the global warming, all related to the Ozone layer, which makes possible life on earth. If we do nothing to change this situation and continue polluting the world, the effects could be catastrophic for the population.

In order to overcome these problems, people mustn’t use cars, but this can’t be possible because they are necessary to our daily life so people criticize this solution because cars are needed by them to move from one place to another.

One solution to solve the problem of pollution would be to encourage people to use public transport, in order to reduce the emissions of carbon dioxide and the air pollution. Also making use of pooling cars, this is to make full use of it by carrying many people in one single drive, which would save not only energy, but also money.

A second solution would be to switch off lights when we go out of our homes, since a large amount of fossil fuels are burnt in order to produce electricity, so you can save the environment from degradation by reducing the amount of fuels to be burned.

Although finishing with pollution is a very difficult objective, the earth would be cleaner and less polluted if we carry out these easy steps and measures in our daily life, and the world will thank us.

Advantages and Disadvantages – BLOCK ORGANISATION

LIVING IN A VILLAGE

Living in a village can make your life far more different than if you live in a town. One of the advantages that villages have is the lifestyle, which is much more peaceful and streets are quieter, since there is no noise of cars and traffic. Another advantage is that in villages there isn’t pollution so the air is pure, clean, and fresh. For this reason life is healthier. A last advantage is that people are nicer and closer by being less population. Now I’m going to talk about the disadvantages, that is mainly one and in my opinion is the most important disadvantage villages have, which is the distance from towns. Villages are far from the city center, jobs, leisure; you haven’t got easy and close access to some places like malls, hospitals, shops, or schools. So if you don’t know where to live, you have to take in account all the advantages and the disadvantage that living in a village has.

"Comparing and Contrasting" - POINT-BY-POINT ORGANISATION

EBOOK VS. PAPER BOOK

Reading a book from an ebook is very differnt from reading it on paper. First of all, ebooks don't take almost space and don't almost weigh , while paper books occupy more space, weigh more, and accumulate dust. In contrast to paper books, with ebooks you are able to do a backup of the books in the case you lose them. Another difference is that ebooks are cheaper than books. Another important difference is that ebooks don't need paper and are responsible with the enviroment, while books have to be printed on paper. Also, while ebooks can be updated and corrected if they have mistakes, paper books haven't got this advantage because they have been printed already. Whereas with an ebook a book is easy to obtain and they don't run out, sometimes with paper books, editions are run out and you can't get a book. Ebooks facilitate the access to reading by being designed for people visually impaired, so they allow and include audio playback with books. However, paper books are more difficult to break down. With ebooks you are able to search a word or a sentence instantly, not the same as paper books. Finally, a last difference is that paper books don't require having any knowledge about technology. Although the purpose is the same: to read; doing that with an ebook or on paper can make the action very different.

Opinion paragraph

UNCONDITIONAL BASIC INCOME

In this post I am giving my opinion about the unconditional basic income, which is a proposed system of social security in which all citizens of a country regularly receive an unconditional sum of money, in addition to any income received from elsewhere.

To begin with, I would like to highlight that I agree with this activity. Some ideas that support it are:

With attention to society, the basic income distributes in a better way the wealth, namely, it gives less money to the richest and more to poor people, so poverty would be eliminated by having everybody a basic income independently if they work or not. Thus, if a person works, he will obtain more money since apart from the money he or she earns from his job, he would also receive this income.

In addition to, by not being necessary to work, people won’t do forced labors and they will work in jobs they really like. For this reason basic income also promotes a better efficient of people by working in a job in which they feel motivated.

Moreover, it promotes ideas for new businesses by providing money to a person who wanted to carry out it.

In a nutshell, I agree with the unconditional basic income because it promotes a better socio-economic system by distributing wealth and by increasing efficiency.

THE RAIN

Most people don't like those days in which the weather is not as good and sunny as they want. For this reason, bad weather makes people get angry and they don't feel like doing nothing. However, bad weather makes me happy because I love the rain, the storms, the smell after a rainy day, and everything about it, even when you have to stay at home owing to the rain, which floods the sreets sometimes. I also love the feeling of sitting on the sofa with a blanket due to the cold that sometimes the rain brings, watching films hearing the rain falling outside. A lot of people agree that bad weather makes them happy, although most of the world hates it. I think it seems strange that someone could like days when you cannot get out of your house and when the sky id all grey and sometimes black, but I love it.
