Something about marriage
Around the world, young people have delayed to get getting married. There are many reasons, such as pursuit of career, personal goals and a fear of divorce. Anyhow a significant number of people favor the opposite view. They believe that marriage at a younger age is better. A new research also suggests that the couples who get married by the their early 20s are slightly happier than couples who wait until their late 20s and early 30s. However, worldwide trends point to late marriage.

Je suis étudiant en génie civil et maintenant je dois chercher une vraie opportunité d'emploi pour sauver quelque argent. Les choses son changés puis 6 années d'études, et j'ai découvris que il y a des options diverses pour choisir. Qu'est-ce que j'ai fait? J'ai déjá envoyé beaucoup de CV pour les entreprises de construction mais personne m'est retourné. Je sais que patience c'est une qualité nécessaire donc je ne suis pas désespéré. Mes objectifs son précis. Plus, ce type d'expérience avec construction est très important et un plus, une fois que j'ai le but d'immigrer au Canada quand ma petite amie se graduer. Ah bon, habiter au Canada est un rêve que serais possible si je domine bien la langue française! C'est pour ça que je veux améliorer ma connaissance ici en italki.com Merci beaucoup! ;)March 1, 201230
- Colonia del Sacramento, UY Colonia del Sacramento es un pueblito uruguayo encantador que no esta lejos de Buenos Aires. La travesía del Rio de la Plata no lleva más que una hora y la hicimos en buque. El sitio es considerado uno de los patrimonios históricos y culturales de la humanidad por UNESCO debido a su increíble conservación y belleza. Estuvimos allá por dos días y aunque se pueda conocer todo el lugar en un solo día yo no me arrepiento de haber quedado un rato más. En Colonia hay un circuito de museos donde se puede comprar un ticket y visitar algo como 8 museos distintos. Como todos son muy chiquitos y próximos se puede alcanzar todo com facilidad en una tarde, ya que la atención al publico empieza a las once de la mañana. A mi me gustó mucho el museo Portugués con mapas originales de la colonización. Yo no tenia idea de la precisión con que hacían los mapas en el pasado y la semejanza me sorprendió mucho. Alquilamos dos bicis y exploramos la área en pocas horas, aprovechamos la playa con quemaduras leves del sol pero contentes con la tranquilidad y paz del lugar. Mi consejo: disfrutar de las cosas simples es lo más importante, caminar tranquilamente por las calles de 400 años, sacar fotos de las ruinas y las casas de época, admirar el Rio de la Plata y sentir el viento fuerte es sin igual. La comida uruguaya es igualmente rica, probamos los famosos chivitos uruguayos y también los asados. Sin embargo nos encantó la experiencia de cenar cerca del río, con buena música internacional, vino exquisito y luz de velas. Estoy seguro que no me olvidaré de Colonia nunca.
February 26, 201241 IELTS Preparation: can internet replace schools
Topic: Nowadays, schools are becoming unnecessary for children, since they can use the internet to study at home. To what extent do you agree or disagree?
Nowadays, internet has been increasingly used in education. This raises questions about the necessity of schooling. Although some people claim that internet can replace schools, I am personally against this view.
One argument often presented by internet supporters is that internet can inform students of a large amount of information and knowledge. For instance, students can teach themselves history course by searching on the internet for any historical events, including time, background and details. However, it should not be neglected that besides conveying knowledge, schools also take the responsibility to nurture students’ communication and cooperation skills. In the case of a history course, schools often run discussion sessions and assign group work, which aims to help students analyze the deep reasons as well as profound influence of historical events. Through this, students not only get knowledge but also learn to think critically, express their opinions clearly and exchange with others, etc.
Compared to internet education, school education has another advantage, that is motivation. This is because teachers can keep an eye on students’ reaction and feedback in class, thereby adjusting teaching method to encourage and motivate students to study harder. In contrast, the effectiveness of internet education only relies on the self-discipline of students, which is especially weak among teenager students.
In addition, some courses could not be carried out on internet such as physical exercises lesson. For example, students are impossible to learn playing basketball if they do not practice with others. Such practice opportunity cannot be provided by internet.
To conclude, I am convinced that schools cannot be replaced by internet because it provides skills development, motivation and practice opportunities.0 votedFebruary 23, 20121My perfect day!
My perfect day would be staying at a very luxury hotel in a beautiful beach, let's say Cancun, and having a room with a beautiful view of the sea. I'd wake up at 7 hours so i can could see the sunrise, then i'd go to take a walk on the sand, i'd have some breakfast and i'd read for a while. After that i'd check how is my business going on, then I'd probably go to visit the city and buy something, maybe do some aquatic activity such as dive. Then I'd eat at the best restaurant around the place and know some new people at the hotel. To finish I'd love go to party to at the best club at in the coast and make some new friends.
That's my perfect day... What is yours?? :DWell done, despite the minor mistakes! Keep the good work.
