Emails

Americans are much more likely <s>using</s> to use emails than Chinese people. Although Chinese are using emails more often than before, emails<s> is</s> are more about dealing with very formal work<s>ing</s> situations. For less formal things, we use WeChat a lot, which is a widely spread chatting software. WeChat is like WhatsApp in China, but it allows people to build chat groups and it is <s>not</s> popular among young people, almost every Chinese person has a WeChat account. So, friends can have a chat group, families can share a chat group and teachers and students can be in the same chat group. As long as you have a cell phone which is connected to the Internet, you can receive <s>from</s> and send <s>to</s> messages to a bunch of people immediately at the same time.

For example, when I was in China, if my lab members were going to have dinner together: messages would be sent in the chat group and everyone could discuss the location, time and anything else rapidly. Even if there was some last-minute change, we could update it in the chat group immediately and would not worry about <s>that </s>someone <s>might</s> forgetting to check their email. However, when I had lab social events in America, every bit of information was collected and then transmitted by (Via email sounds better - as it means through email.). It's really less convenient than what we can do in China, and it would be much more comfortable if a happy social event email didn't coexist with tedious working emails in my mailbox. I mean, I really would love to separate my life from my work!

People and Relationships

To establish an ultimate relationship is <s>complex,</s> difficult. The issues here are complex but there are some important characteristics needed to sustain<s> the</s> a relationship: like being honest, mutual understanding <s>each other,</s> trust, respect etc.

In the modern <s>criteria,</s> world, people are required to hide their true self. It’s not kind to have any scuffle with others, especially in the working environment. People live under <s>the</s> pressure. In my opinion, if you want to have a good quality friendship, sometimes truly being yourself would enhance any relationship. Though always ascertain beforehand, if truly being yourself could hurt the other person.

Criminal Reoffending

Obviously, punishment is not always a proper way to stop criminals from reoffending. I think several reasons lead offenders to break the law repeatedly. Nonetheless, a variety of steps can be taken by government and society to address this issue.

Chorus -TAGAKI DAY 64-

She thinks singing together is a lot of fun.

In the future, she wants to join a community chorus group. She hopes her group will someday perform at a local festival.

She said<s> that </s>let's sing "la, la, la, la".

However, I don't think singing together is a lot of fun for me because I am not good at singing. My singing is terrible. I feel if <s>When</s> I sing in <s>a public place,</s> in public, then people will fall down on the ground and collapse in shock and horror.

What do you think about money?

Last night, I took an English class for my BEC Exam. The class topic <s>is</s> was "Money and Finance".

During class the teacher asked me a question: "What do you think about money?" (When it is a title of a topic or words spoken it needs to be emphasized by putting it in inverted commas.)

Then an old saying that "Money is not everything but without money you can do nothing." occurred to me. It seems the saying tells everything about relationships between money and us.

In my opinion, though most <s>of </s>problems can be solved with money although something precious can't be exchanged <s>with</s> for it: for example, we can buy a big house, but we can't buy a warm family! We can buy millions <s>of thousands</s> of beautiful roses, but we can't buy love!

Maybe different people have different opinions about money but it is important for all of us to keep a balance between money and life.

Should cycling be encouraged in Russia?

Using bikes on a regular basis is <s>somehow</s> an indicator of a prudent and eco-friendly lifestyle for many people. On the one hand, cycling helps you to save a great deal of money, improve your health and sometimes even save time you could spend stuck in <s>the</s> heavy traffic which is common for all busy metropolises. On the other hand, it's not a convenient means of transport during cold and rainy seasons and it can be the main <s>holding </s>reason why most people in my country do not ride bikes. Unfortunately, for most of the year in Russia, you just can't get to <s>the</s> your destination without being covered <s>yourself</s> in mud.<s> during the major part of the year.</s>

IELTS essay - "Work"

Some employers want to be able to contact their staff at all times? Even if they are on holidays.

Does this new development have more advantages than disadvantages?

In the opinion of some managers, employees always have to be in contact with them, even on holidays or vacation.

This essay will argue that there are more disadvantages than advantages. This essay will first demonstrate that the less time workers have to themselves, the less efficient they are and it is not necessarily followed<s> by the analysis of how the</s> the seemingly primary advantage which is <s>namely</s> to get a promotion.

The main drawback this has is that to be in touch with an employer all the time <s> is that this</s> reduces your personal<s> lifetime</s> time <s>that is not so long without that</s>. By the way, people who are always <s>being</s> in contact with their managers usually show less efficiency in the work <s>time</s> place. For example, one website published<s> the</s> an article which <s>contains</s> explains that people who have a <s>half</s> part time job work more efficiently than those with demanding full time jobs. (When you say "work more efficiently" it needs to explain than who....?)

Those who approve<s>d to</s> of this say that it helps to get a <s>be </s>promotion <s>But</s> but ("but","and" "or" are conjunctions and join sentences. They cannot start sentences.) there is no direct <s>dependency</s> correlation between <s>unsociable </s> employers <s>work</s> who are demanding and requiring employees to be at their beck and call at any time of the day or night and <s>getting</s> receiving promotions.

Firstly it leads to admitting your employer <s>as</s> is not an effective manager.
