An analysis of the forested land in different continents

This chart depicts the forest extension (in millions of hectares) in distinct continents in the years of 1990, 2000 and 2005. We can see that North America and Oceania remained pretty much the same from 1990 to 2005. On the other hand, South America and Africa suffered a substantial decrease in the forested area in the same period. The good news is that Asia and Europe showed a slight but increase in the overall forested land in this period. Asia, for example, suffered a decrease from 576 to 570 millions of hectares from 1990 to 2000 but suddenly showed an increase from 570 to 584 millions of hectares in 2005, which is good considering that the increase was enough to overcome the initial value in 1990. On the other hand, South America suffered a big loss of about 64 millions of hectares from 1990 to 2005. To conclude, this table summarizes the total amount of forested land that was lost or gained in the years of 1990, 2000 and 2005 in different continents.

Computers: the most important invention of the century?

From the invention of computers to the present we are becoming more and more dependent on this innovative technology. Almost everything around us (even the most basic activities) demands the use of a computer (or a mini computer, like smartphones). For instance, to pay a bill, to talk with people around the world, to turn on appliances, to have fun playing games or reading a book, or even to watch a movie. There are so many things we can do using a computer that some people can't live without one anymore. For some, it has become the biggest discovery of the last century. I agree with this statement because I can't see a world in which people don't use computers since every little action of our daily routine is in some way connected to a computer's functionality. However, we can't say for sure that this is the most important invention of recent years because there are too many important inventions in the last years that are worth remembering, like the electric car, the LED light bulb, mp3 players, 3D printers, and many others. The problem is that almost all the new inventions are in some way related to a computer, which leads us to the same position where we were before: the computer may be the recent years' most important invention. From looking at people's lives and their need for a computer to facilitate almost all activities of their daily life, I can conclude that, although, there are many important discoveries in the last century, and the computer is certainly one of the most important. I can't say for sure that it is the most important of all, but I know that the computer exerted a huge influence on the advanced technology we have today and this is enough to put the computer on a list of the biggest inventions of all time.

I would score you 9/10 on this entry. You are certainly aiming for a very high standard of writing, and showing skill with complex sentence structure and advanced vocabulary. 

The importance of sharing as much information as possible with people (can you correct for me?)

Today's world is full of information, new academic researchers in all possible areas, and people interested in knowing about this information. Moreover, it is remarkably easier to share this information with others than it has been ever before. As an academic researcher, I can say that there is a lot of precious and valuable information for the academics and for the government that cannot be shared with the ordinary citizens because it can cause rebellions and pose other risks for the population. Also, there are some kinds of information that don’t concern for the general public but specific sectors of the government. For instance, the mining sector may be interested in investigating the most suitable places for exploration. This kind of information only concerns to this sector. On the other hand, there is some information that I think it can be useful to all of us, such as scientific papers regarding all sort of subjects. When I was writing my master’s thesis I suffered with this problem because there were many articles that I needed to consult that weren't available for the general public and by reading them maybe I could have understood some subjects better and contributed in a better way to specific scientific discoveries. Of course I finished my thesis without reading all the information I wished for, but this information could have added more details to my research. To conclude, I think it is fundamental to share as much information as possible with people, except that which is kept secret for the safety of all or which doesn’t concern to the people’s general interests.

Learning languages

Hi everyone ,

i think that learning a new language is not easy , but but learning a new language improves you as a person, so you must be patient until you reach your goal. :) 

This is why I want to have a language partner who can help me in English and i can help him/her in Arabic.

Hey! Are you looking for a conversation partner? If so, I would love to help out in any way I can. 

Practice the conversation

Hello!
I like studying and learning new languages. I had studied English a few years ago and returned this year again. (This is a bit awkward as written. A more natural way is to use the simple past: I studied English a few years ago and have resumed this year again.) I still encounter problems with pronunciation because I don't have many opportunities to practice. I try to learn pronunciation by watching movies and series. But I still miss talking to someone.
I see that many Brazilians are ashamed of speaking and making mistakes, which makes this exchange of experiences even more difficult.
