How_to_revise_without_ruining_Christmas

Christmas and New Year are coming… as well as credits and exams. A vast majority of students get s stressed and still does’t know how to manage a timetable and jungle all these things like credit preparation and holiday time. I believe that an article that I found on the Guardian will be a great tip advisor for all students. The name of the article is How to revise without ruining Christmas – by exam experts . It contains seven different pieces of advice given by ex-students, lectors and psychologists. You can find it interesting because the tips are quite short and they may really help you. The first tip is repeating material wherever you are. It is better that you read your notes out loud. It may be useful to rewrite something you cannot memorize to refresh your knowledge. Secondly, we are supposed to identify the time we are most productive, in order to manage our resources reasonably. It said that the morning is the most productive time of the day for a great number of stu...

New_Zeland_Volcan_Eruption

As the world changes, so many disasters occur in our lives. Flooding, hurricanes, avalanches, volcano eruptions and so on. Every time I see the news about it, I can’t leave it without drawing attention to it. It is always terrifying to hear that someone is dead because of natural disaster. It comes to my mind that everyone could be a victim. That’s why I decided to write an opinion essay about New Zeland’s volcano eruption which took place on one of the New Zeland’s island called White Island. White Island is a popular place among tourists. So on the 10th of December there were plenty of them. The tourists weren’t warned about the coming eruption, so 6 people didn’t have a chance to escape. Thirty-one people are injured and stay in hospitals. Due to helicopter pilots and doctors, they are alive. Eight people are still missing. Volcanologists describe the eruption as short-lived and impulsive. Some water flow caused the eruption, so magma started lifting out of blue. Modern-day te...

post_5:PossibleEssayTopics

Possible Essay Topics 1. Do students learn better in same-sex classrooms? A theme of education is considered to be really significant for all society; especially, for the vast majority of parents.  However, arguments still take place in the Education Department. It is really arguable question whether to divide classes according to the sex or not. 2.  Should people be able to donate organs in exchange for money? This very theme takes my interest because recently I’ve read a book which is called Never Let Me Go. It has some similarities with the current topic. I suppose that selling the organs for money is even beyond speaking. Although some people seem to have negative attitude towards it, others lost their hope because they suffer from poverty and they are ready to consider themselves as donors. 3. Should governments be able to censor certain information on the internet? Censorship on the Internet is a good topic for discussion due to the recent accidents in ...

Post_3:Things-to-change

   Hello, there are three things that irritate me.    First of all, I do hate traffic jams. Especially when you are late to university and you can’t interrupt the lecturer and come in. In one day we went home in a rush hour, and it took almost 4 hours to get there. It bothers me that so many cars on the roads today. We must decrease the number of them to make our environment better and people happier.:)    The second thing that I personally can’t stand is a big amount of people in one place. I’m frightened of being lost among them. I get dizzy and can’t orientier. Don’t know how people live in mega cities.     And last but not least, people who push me in public transport irritate me. They can lay on me, sleep, and do other things. However, they cross my personal boundaries and stay too close to me. I hope one day there will be a law which will prohibit a driver of the bus to gather so many people in a small bus!   ...

Hello, my name is Arina. I’m eighteen years old. I have a big family which consist of mother, father and two sisters. I’m fond of learning languages because it'll give me more possibilities in my future and wide my perspective of mind. Also I love traveling. That’s why I set a goal to go somewhere every summer. My another hobby is hiking. There is something fascinating in reaching a mountain pick and breathing fresh air. I feel free when I get there. The river flowing, the wind tackling my hair    and nothing else matters. However, I also love the sea. Especially, the sunsets on the sea. I can look at it not even winking. Siting on the beach and relaxing is a kind of obsession

Post_2:Article-Summury_'Rebellion'

Recently I’ve read one intriguing article about banning Extinction Rebellion protest from whole London. People are really worried about the environmental issues,nowadays; and they do prefer not to keep silence. They want to solve this issue, so they go outside, take banners, and demand government do something.  So happened in London. They went to Trafalgar Square. The police were just watching. However, in a few hours they started    clearing this peaceful protest.  On Twitter, the  London  branch of XR wrote: “Police are clearing peaceful protest in Trafalgar & Vauxhall. They are back-tracking on promises made &, MEPs say, in contravention of UK law, in the national square. This is an emergency, and an outrage. The police must respect the law. This is a democracy.” Frankly speaking, I cannot understand why the police and the government do not put the environmental question forward. Moreover, I do not understand why they banned the pea...
