Internet?

The internet was invented in the late 90's. The invention of the internet has changed our lives in several ways. Now we can share knowledge with peers all over the world. Sharing knowledge was made(ww.+gr.) much easier and faster.Now we can publish an article or a blog post, and in seconds all our friends can read it and comment on it. This phenomenon made(gr. - use the present perfect) our lives much easier and made a difference in our ways of communication.

In the past, If you wanted to talk with your peers on the other side of the globe, you needed to write a letter and send it by mail. It was a long process, and wasn’t so convenient, because sending an urgent letter wasn’t possible. Now, with the invention of the internet, sending an e-mail is just a matter of few seconds.

Despite all of the advantages, there are (a) few disadvantages. The main ones are pornography and lack of physical activity. With the fast flow of information , we can observe that pornography become much easier to access. Despite all of the parent control programs, pornography is still available 24 hours a day, to all the little kids on the planet. Another disadvantage is the lack of physical activity,because you sit infront of the computer the whole day and do not move much, which is very important (in order) to develop social skills in kids. The lack of it, causes the children, get into depressions(phr.), and have no real friends.

In conclusion, dispite  the disadvantages, that we try to minimize, the advantages overflow them. These days, we can save lives thanks to the great invention of the internet, by sending urgent messeges, such as sos. And(מיותר) saving lives is the most sacred thing in the world and nothing can compare with that.
How is the issue of saving lives relevant to what you have written in your essay? The conclusion is supposed to relate to whatever you have presented in your essay, summarize it and conlude.

These days, we all graduate from high school with an exam called Matriculation. Each student's knowledge must be reflected by those exams in the best way. The bagrut exam consists of a few exams in each subject, for example Bible, Hebrew etc. Moreover, some of those exams are not obligatory like Physics, Chemistry, or even Biology.

I think that those exams don’t reflect each students knowledge, because the exams consists of a lot of material and not all the students have the ability to remember this amount of material. Moreover, not all students can deal with the stress durng the exam.I suggest schools all over the world to do those exams a bit differently, so they will reflect the student's knowledge and values.

First, students should be tested by a human and not by a robot, in an oral exam. This way, the student can reflect his knowledge even though he doesn’t know how to write a right answer. In addition, the examiner will test not only knowledge, but social skills by talking to the student, and knowing him better. Second, the tests shouldn’t be limited by time like now, so the students wouldn't be so stressed.

As a student in high school, I can say that those improvements will test knowledge better and I could get higher grades. In addition, those improvements, will take us to a newer age, where not only knowledge will
be tested, but social skills and manners as well.

Nowadays, our community has become more self centered and individual, and less sociable and caring. The term "us" has become less popular and now "me and myself" is more important. We live out everyday life when there are a lot of families that need help, a lot of elders that may need their house to be fixed, and even children that have nothing to do after school.

School, is a great chance to stop this phenomenon at its early stages and maybe make a difference. I think that schools should encourage students to contribute to the community. First, they should offer better grades in some subjects, in exchange for volunteering. These subjects may not be important ones , but less important like "social studies" or "behavior".

Second, schools should not spend all their time teaching the academic subjects, like math or English but to educate their students to be better people. In addition, they should contribute 1 hour a week for current events or teaching social values, so we can all become better people.

I think that these few ideas will make our community better and make us better citizens by teaching us values. In addition, I hope that this will help more students, teenagers and kids get more involved in the community.

Dear Ms. Black,

I would like to get some information about the organized trips you offer. I am a 74 year old grandfather of 7 grandchildren, and 5 children. Despite my old age, I like hiking, running and other extreme sports. It's my third trip to New York .

As I mentioned earlier, I am involved in extreme sports, so I want a challenging trip. I would like it to involve running, hiking, etc. In addition, I would like it to involve(ww. - include) natural parks and nature resorvations rather than museums, national buildings etc. Yet, I would like to learn about the American culture.

I would like to get information about the hotels I stay in, the trip schedule and the costs of everything. If it's not too hard, I would like a cheap trip, because I live on my retirement funds.Moreover, I would like to be part of a small group, because in a big one,I can not concentrate and understand a thing

My time is running out, so I hope to get the information I asked for earlier, very soon. Moreover, I would like to recommend your company to my friends, so I would like you to send me your brochure.

Best regards,
James Richardson

Excellent.
