I want to teach as many people as possible, and get you feeling confident about English. I'm from southern California, near Los Angeles, and I have been speaking this wonderful language since I was a child. The best way to learn any language is to speak it as soon as possible; I believe too much studying before actually speaking can be detrimental and can leave you tongue tied in a social situation. The goal is to speak, and make as many mistakes as possible, so you can correct them as you go.

    TAXES

    Taxes are vital in our society in order to maintain all the social structures and essential services such as education. One of the aspects that impressed me the most when I visited the States for the first time in my life was the dramatic difference in the way of taxing.

    First of all, here in Spain whenever you go shopping the government taxes are included in the price. It doesn’t matter if it’s food, fashion or entertainment. On the contrary, in the USA the prices you find on the shelves are tax-free, so you need to keep in mind that the final receipt will be greater after adding the corresponding taxes.

    Second of all, when you have dinner in a restaurant you must know that the tips for the waiters are paid separately. Because of that, you are supposed to pay an extra amount, corresponding to the 10-15% of the final cost of your meal or menu. What is more, it will be directly added to your receipt if you’re having a party of six or more (depends on the restaurant’s policies).

    Finally, I found it perfect that each State has its own laws when it comes to taxes. For instance, in Pennsylvania clothes are tax-free, so you can save a lot of money if you come from another State. I remember somebody told me that Canadians who lived next to the frontier would visit USA just for shopping.

    To summarize, from my experience I can tell that you can never take anything for granted due to the fact that each country has its own organizational system. My piece of advice would be that you always look for information about any nation you visit, the more prepared you are the more you’ll enjoy your stay.

    People on Earth

    People are all different, but thought think the same. We speak at different languages, live in different countries, have different cultures, but all want to sleep, eat, smile and love. People who speak at one and the same language can't always can to understand each other. Understanding the alien foreigners can be complicated, must to work hard and requires hard work. But I'm sure that human people from the other end of the world can see important things.

    People are afraid of being sincere. People are afraid of being alone. going to hold life in alone. In one country men don't communicate together with each other. How difficult communication must be for people from different countries! Hundreds of miles Distance and differences in the culture and language do not give provide peoplea chance to be understood. I think that the more we try to understand each other the better off we'll be with us, even if he is from far countries. no matter where you're from.

    Our health is depends on not only what we're we eat to, but also what we're do every day, how often we're do it, and what we're use it for. for it.
    so We should eat more healthy food. For example, vegetables and fruits. and also We should also drink more water and green tea, without sugar, of course. We shouldn't eat too much fast food. I think now it's one of a bad habit.
    The more popular habits is are drinking alcohol and smoking. this These habits is just destroy us. But there are a good habits, like cleaning brushing your teeth in the morning and in the evening.
    Another also one of good habit is sports. It helps us to look beautiful everyday. I think we should do some activities for our body everyday as well.
    But for good looking good is not enough. We also should brush our hair hear, clean brush our teeth and maintain a clean body.
