Learning with web2english

When I first started to learn English through Web2english , reading, writing, listening and speaking was not easy for me to learn using the computer. I made many mistakes because I did not know how to use the computer, but as time went by I could use the computer a little.

The part of the course which I was interested in and spent most time on was writing. My vocabulary, idiom and grammar were poor so I needed dictionaries and grammar books to write an essay. I had to struggle. Repeating these exercises, I am now a little used to reading text in the British Council website. And I am able to send text messeage by telephone.

The most difficult part of the course was speaking. When I speak English, the sequence of words in my mind gets mixed up. When I was recording the podcast, I was embarrased because I was reading like a robot. I just finished 9 times of podcast recording. I improved better than the first time but it is still awkward for me to speak and record in the podcast.

I want to continue to learn English until I am able to watch movies without subtitles. When I first started courses, I used to ask myself if I can complete the courses. I was able to continue the lessons because I met good friends and a teacher. I sometimes could not submit homework on time. But thankfully my teacher corrtected all my poor sentences and checked my homework. Thank you Mr, Sean. I belive Web2English will be a wonderful guide for many people who wish to learn English.

City versus country life

In this essay I will write about good things and bad things about city and country living in my country.
There are many good things about living in the country. First, we can breathe fresh air everyday. Second, We can enjoy organic vegetables. Third, the country has ample affection and generousity.

But there are also some bad things. Cultural, educational, medical and shopping facilites are insuffcient. Also, there is less choice of occupation. In addition, transportation and communication is uncomfortable.

There are good things about living in city. First, cultural, education, medical and shopping facilities are good. Second, We can choose various jobs. Third We can take public transportation conveniently.

But there are also some bad things. First, air, noise, and water pollution are serious. Also, Traffic is congested at rush hour. In addition, many people came into the city and houses are expensive and insufficient.

Now, I want to live in the city. The main reason is my child's education. The second is the city has wide range of jobs. Third, we can enjoy various kinds of entertainment. Fourth, hospitals are near at the time of emergency. The city has disadvantages but I like city more because it's convenient.

Ways to Protect environment

When I go to Jisoo's school from Dubai, I turn right at exit 63 on the Emrates road. On the right side of the road there is a landfill. It's as great as a mountain. Lot's of plastic bags fly here and there on a windy day. I thought the trash was thrown by us!

Koreans are doing separate garbage collection when they throw away garbage. Seperate garbage collection needs a little labor, time and it's a little uncomfortable but we can reduce waste. We can recycle some of it. So it is economical.

In my house we have a lot of garbage daily. Most of it is food waste. If I throw the remaining food, I feel it's a waste of money. So I put them in a fridge but I dont want to eat unfresh food. It will be thrown away a few days later. Also, some of the old vegetables get rotten in fridge. They will be thrown away.

My mother is buddhist. When I was young, while I was eating my mother told me. "when people die, they will go to Hades. When they are going Hades, they have to eat all their left over food". "Therefore, do not waste food ". I am in trouble since I have thrown away a lot of food waste.

I think protecting our environment starts from home. First of all, I must reduce food waste.
Next, I should check the frige weekly and buy required vegetables only. Then, I should cook the required quantity to prevent food waste.

The food waste will continue to build up. It will cause a decreased area of landfill. Who wants landfill in our neighborhood? Who wants landfill near our kids‘ schools?

Finally, if our small efforts are gathered, we can hand over a clean environment to our descendants.
