The time spent by UK residents on three types of telephone calls Could you please help me review my essay? Thank you very much! :) Figure 1 shows the time spent by UK residents on three types of telephone calls between 1995 and 2002 ( /from 1995 to 2002). The minutes spent on local-fixed line calls remained the highest throughout the period, rising from 72 billion to its peak -90 billion- in 1999 ( /to hit 90 billion in 1999), then falling back to the 1995 figure. In contrast, (the minutes of) the other two types continued growing during ( /in) the whole period, but with different speeds; (the minute of) the national and international-fixed line calls, the more steady one, increased from 28 billion to 61 billion, while (the minutes of) the mobile calls went up dramatically from 2 billion to 46 billion. The great growth of telephone calls may result from rapid developments of economy and ( /as well as) communication technology. The former made people in greater need of phone calls; the latter improved ( /guaranteed easier) access to calls. Meanwhile, due to increasingly convenient and diversified functions of mobiles, the status of local-fixed line was threatened, leading to its downward trend and a narrowing gap between the three categories in the last half of the period.

Should College Students Hire Cleaners? Recently, the issue of college students hiring cleaners has aroused public concern. Some people think it’s a good way to save time for studying, while others object that it’s a bad habit for the students. As far as I’m concerned, college students shouldn’t hire cleaners in their dormitories. There exists some insecurities when college students hire cleaners. For example, there would be a risk of theft, for some cleaners’ personal qualities can’t be guaranteed. Besides, since the cleaners can enter the dorm, there exists the possibility that bad guys would sneak into the dormitories by disguising themselves as cleaners. Hiring cleaners in dorms may not only cause insecurities, but also makes college students form bad habits. The most direct influence is that students don’t have to clean the dorms on their own, and it may make them form the habit of laziness. Besides, with a though that someone else would clean the rooms, the students would be more dependent on others. Moreover, most students still live on their parents’ money, and it’s a kind of wastefulness to spend money that way while they can clean themselves. To sum up, there are many bad effects for college students to hire cleaners. Students shouldn’t just follow suit without thinking about it carefully. I'd appreciate it if you could help me with corrections and comments. :)

Could you please help me correct these two paragraphs? ^_^ We students all study hard. We study on weekdays from morning to night. In class, we sometimes simulate tough negotiations or act as interpreters, which is more challenging. After class, we have to do a lot of homework. Maybe some of us will study abroad after graduating, but I believe we are friends all the time. My English is not as good as others, so I must study harder. In my spare time, I usually practice my English by speaking and listening again and again. More importantly, I’m more confident by learning English, which is a priceless asset in my life.

Could you please help me correct these sentences? My classmate Mike told me that he saw my boyfriend leave the university with a girl. Then he invited me to watch a movie with him and I accepted. On our way to the cinema theater, I ran across my boyfriend who were handing out the leaflets with my classmates to passersby. I did not know the fact until then. Mike’s words caused misunderstanding between my boyfriend and me.
