Argumentative essay

Argumentative essay

We came to this camp to study English. In Korea, most people learn English before they go to school. Therefore, we are familiar with English. Do you think studying English is good? Some people might think studying English is not good. However, studying English is good.

According to Korean government, Nowadays is a Global period. During global periods, we have to communicate with others. Language is a way to communicate. Most people in the world use English, for that reason, Studying English is good for us. If we can use English very well,we can understand foreigners.

Second, studying English helps with developing our brain. English is a language. If you are good at two languages, English and Korean, your brain will develop. According to Times magazine, people who use two languages, have a lot of original ideas. The more you study languages, the smarter you will be.

Some people say after we become a master of Korean, we have to learn another language. However, it is the wrong idea, because nobody can be master of a language,so you can learn both of Korean and English at the same time. Then, we will be bilingual.

Most children in Korea start to learn English from five years old. It is stressful for children. However, learning English is a good thing. The method of Education on Korea is wrong, but just learning English doesn't have any problems. Some people think as soon as they start English, your children will be good at English. That is wrong idea. Every learning has the right time. In an occasion of learning English, students should start at ten years old not five years old. You don't have to cause stress to children since they're baby.

In conclusion, studying English is good, because, you can communicate with other people in the world, learning English helps develop your brain, you can be a bilingual person, not a master of a language, and learning English is good if ypu don't feel a lot of stress.

Compare/Contrast essay after watching movie'Brave'

Brave

Few days ago, I watched the movie named Brave. I can guess why the title of this movie is Brave, because Merida, a princess was brave. Merida was good at archery and she loves freedom. I like her strong character and bravery. Merida always fights with her mother, Elinour because of her personality and actions. One day, Elinour made Merida marry, but Merida didn't want to marry. Finally, Merida gave a magical cupcake to Elinour and Elinour changed into a bear. Merida didn't want her mother become a bear, so Merida and Elinour fought together. After all, Elinour turned back to a woman. While Elinour was a bear, she could understand her daughter, so after she changed into a woman again, Merida and Elinour didn't fight and reclined to each other. It is a very touching and interesting story. I also like Merida because she has differences with other princesses.

Now, I will compare Merida with Cinderella . Both and Cinderella are princess. The difference is that Merida is originally a princess but Cinderella became a princess through marrying a prince. Besides, Merida likes to ride a horse and archery. Merida is manly. However, Cinderella likes to ride a pumpkin carriage and to attend a party. Cinderella is very girlish. The most important thing is the ability of solving problems. Merida solved problems by herself. The witch made a cupcake to her, but that cupcake caused a problem that Elinour changed into a bear. Merida made her mother turn back to a woman. However, Cinderella received help from a fairy.

Second, I will compare Merida with me. The same things are first, we want to be free. I want to jump on the field without any anxiety. Second, Merida and I like archery. I didn't learn it before but I want to learn archery. We also have differences. I can't do anything if that is scary. but Merida is brave. She followed little fairies into the dark forest and walked into the witch's house. Third, I 'm not a princess, so I don't have any pressure about princess's attitude. However, Merida is a princess, so she listens to the lecture from her mother almost everything.

Finally, I'll contrast Merida's mother and my mother. Merida's mother is a queen and her daughter is a princess. Differences are that Merida's mother lectures her daughter because Merida didn't act like a princess. However, my mother lectures to me because I fought with my brother or studying.etc. The same things with Merida's mother and my mother is that they hope their children are good at many things. Some children can think mother's thinking is terrible and they may get stress about it. However, mothers love her children, so they want their children be good. Therefore, we have to understand our mother.

After watching this movie, I comprehended importance of family. When I saw Merida challenge her mother, I thought that I'am looking at my picture so I felt really sorry for my mom and dad. After all, Brave was a really good movie that made me realized the importance of family.

I like you because you are a wonderful sharp pencil. You are very soft and make my fingers comfortable. Do you remember that day I left you in my home? At the school, I missed you so much. I didn't have you, so I had to borrow another pencil. After that day, I knew that you were the best sharp pencil I have ever seen before.

As you know, every best friend sometimes feel sorry to each other. I am sorry because I ruined your eraser. On the top of your head, I remember that you had a long eraser. I thought it was very funny, so I picked out the eraser from your top. I played with the eraser, then I lost the eraser. It was part of your body. I'm so sorry, my sharp pencil . Can you forgive me? I believe you can.

I think you can perceive my hand because I used you for four years. Iy is a really long time, isn't it? We've known each other very well. I think maybe you know my method of studying. It is my secret. I like you very much. Let's be good friends with each other forever.
