Portfolio Task 4 - Competing and Cooperating

              People all over the world study in different schools which have different ways of teaching. In this essay I am going to compare about two ways which are competing and cooperating and give my opinion.
                First of all, using competition between the students is good because in every competition there is a prize and that will make the students do their best to win the prize. For example some schools give certificates to the winner. Moreover, it makes you feel good and proud about yourself, and sometimes it motivates you to win. If you lose in front of your friends, sometimes it just makes you feel like a loser which will make some students think about it personally.
                Rather than competing some schools prefer to make students cooperate with each other which have advantages and disadvantages. First, it will help the students to share the work which will help a lot because there will be more ideas and the quality of the work will be better and it will help the students to learn from each other such as when they study together for their exam. This leads us to two disadvantages which are copying a lot and some students will prefer to give all the work to other students.
                In conclusion, I would say that I prefer both ways because in competition students will learn how to win by themselves and in cooperating they will learn how to share the work which will prepare them for workplace.

Portfolio Task 3

A key to a healthy life

People all over the world are trying hard to have a healthy life by balancing their meals but it is not the only way to have a healthy life. In this essay I am going to discuss about the other keys to have a healthy life and why I disagree with the statement.
                First of all, people have to balance their food wether it is healthy or not otherwise they will be fat. Second, doing exercises is very important to a healthy life even if you eat a lot of junk food because if you go to the gym or you do some exercises like running or walking in a place like Cornish you will burn a lot of calories. Third, try to avoid stress at work, smoking and drinking a lot of coffee because it is not healthy. Finally, people should sleep at least 8 to 10 hours a day to help getting away from stress and to keep your body relaxed and ready for work.
                In conclusion, I would say that eating balanced meals is not the only key to have a healthy life because there are a lot of things that will be in your way if you don’t do it such as exercises, sleep and relaxing your body and avoid smoking and drinking a lot of coffee.

Reasons for study according to age of student

The graph shows the reasons for students to study according to their ages, while the second graph shows the employer support also by age groups.
                First of all, students under the age of 26 study for their career 7 times more than they study for their interest. The second group is between 26 and 29 which shows 70 students study for their career while 15 students study for their interest. For the next group which is between 30 and 39 the number of students who are studying for their career is nearly doubled than whom are studying for their interest such as 58 for career and 26 for interest. People in ages from 40 to 49 the number of students are leveled at 40 for both reasons. Finally, more students are studying for their interest than they do for their career when they are over 49. Also from the second graph we can see that the amount of employers support decreased from 63% in the under 26 group to 45% in the over 49 group.
                In conclusion, I would say that the number of students decreased for career as a reason while it increased for the students who are studying for their interest, therefore when people get older they study for their interest.

      The table shows the sales at a small restaurant in a downtown America business district in one week which shows the prices of lunch and dinner every day but Sunday from 7 to 13 of October.
          We can see from the table that people spend more money for dinner than lunch. On Monday and Tuesday the difference is only $50 for lunch while it is different in the same ratio on Tuesday and Thursday for dinner. The highest sale was for dinner at  $4350 on Friday and the lowest was $1950 for lunch on Saturday. On Friday the sales for dinner was nearly double than it was for lunch.
          In conclusion, I would say that people spend more money for dinner than they spend for lunch.
