The lines graph shows the US farms and farm workers in millions between1910 to 2000.
First, the best time was at the beginning of the century from 1910 to 1935, the number of farms was around 6,250,000, and the farm workers were about 13,800,000 workers. In the next decade there was a slight decline in the trend, in 1950 the farms fell to six million farms and the farm workers were reduced to less than 10 million workers. But in the next two years there was a sharp decline in both farms and farm workers, the farms fell to less than four and a half million and the farm workers fell to around half, about 3 million farm workers. In 1970 the fall did not stop and the number of farms and farm workers were close together. The farms fell to around 2 million and the farm workers were about 3 million, this means some farms had only one to two workers.
Nowadays, the government and people in the US know this is a big concern. But, although, the number of farms and farm workers has declined dramatically in the past country, overall the numbers have stabilized since 2000.

Students pay for education
In every place in this world governments have opened many colleges to allow the students to complete their higher studies. In the UAE there are many colleges as HCT, some people think that students must pay for education at HCT. I do not agree with this, although there are arguments on both sides.
Students have to pay because the students will take more care and seriously in their classes, if they pay they will try to not repeat the course again and try to study harder than whom not pay for the education. Another point is that the college would have a higher budget which means better facilities and teaching materials. The colleges with get a higher budget and can afford new facilities, and new technology to use the newest in technology in facilities equipment. I would also argue that payment for education would support a larger schedule, for example, more and later classes and elective courses. Students can study what they want to study and at what time they want to study.
The main reason why I disagree with the statement at students should pay for education is this is fairer for students from poorer families. For example, a student from a less wealthy family has the same chance to fulfill his dream of getting a good education to get a better life in the future and they can help them families. Another point is that there would be a better mix of students. In other world, students would be from different families and regions of the UAE. I would also argue that students who might not think about studying would have a chance to get a degree than otherwise. For example, a student who might not have a chance to study could apply and get motivated to improve themselves.
There are arguments for and against the statement. However, on balance, I believe the arguments in favour of a free education are stronger than those against students paying for education.

The visitors to Canada, between 1996 to 2006
Canada is a very nice place to visit, it’s to the north of USA, and so the weather there is cooler than in the US. This line graph illustrates the number of visitors over 10 years from two countries Japan and Spain to Canada between the years 1996 to 2006.
The number of Japanese visitors was highest in 1996 to 1999 at more than 800 thousand visitors. The number of Spanish visitors was sharply increased from about 300 thousand in 1996 to about 650 thousand visitors in 1999. But after 1999 the number of visitors from both countries changed, in 2001 the Japanese visitors were reduced to 800 thousand visitors and the number of Spain visitors greatly decreased to about 500 thousand visitors. In the last five years the number or visitors from Japan to Canada started to go up and in 2006 was about 630 thousand visitors and the number of Spanish visitors greatly dropped and in 2006 it reached less than 600 thousand visitors.
In conclusion, the number of Japanese visitors outnumbered the Spanish visitors during the ten-year period.

Argument essay
Today, it seems to be universally accepted that increased education is a good thing, but we have a different way for that. Some students agree that examinations are an unfair way of assessment and should not be used at the HCT. In the essay, I will discuss whether or not examinations should be used for assessment at the HCT.
It is easy to find reasons to use examinations for assessment. One issue is maybe the examinations improve skills, because students will spend much time to study this subject. A second point, sometimes the exams help students to know what they understand and do not understand of the course content. This is due because some students will not study until the examinations time. Finally, we can say they are a fair assessment because the same test is used for all students in the same time.
There are several reasons, however, why we should stop using examination for assessment even in HCT. One point is that the examinations are not a good way for a complete evaluation of a student’s skills and abilities, because the assessment needs time not only one or two hours. As a result, some skills and abilities for some student are not assessed in examination time. Another point is mood problems for students. An example is, the most responsible student has a wife and four to five children that means, sometimes the wife is sick and sometimes the children have problems in school. The last point is those who cheat and share answers. Some students depend on cheating and they do not have skills and abilities.
In conclusion, there are arguments both for and against banning exams. In my opinion if we banned the examinations in HCT this would become better for all students, because they could be fairly as assessed.

Argument essay
In the United Arab Emirates, Etisalat blocks internet access to websites deemed counter to the county’s morality standards. In addition, newspapers do not print material which is embarrassing or negative towards the county’s rulers. Whereas, some people say this is individual freedom others say this is part of the culture. In this essay, I will write some points for and against this issue.
There are reasons for why people want Etisalat to leave the internet without blocks. The first point is some countries have different cultures. So, they don’t want blocks. Another point is a different religion. Some people have a different religion or somebody they don’t have religion to stop them from bad things. Yet another point is that some people want to learn more knowledge. They may have to learn some valuable information.
However, there are many reasons for Etisalat blocking internet access. The first point is the children’s reason. Some children don’t know how to use the internet in the right way. Another point is the security issue. Because some websites have too many viruses. Yet another point is terror. Some people send money to the terrorists and this makes a problem for all life.
In general, in my opinion the best way to save our children and our computers and our life is to block internet access from bad sites. People already have many sites to read and gain knowledge from.

2. Changes in Milk Consumption in USA (1950 – 2000)
The graph compares annual consumption of low fat and whole milk in liters per person in the second half of the 20th century in USA. Overall, Americans drink much less milk now than at the start of the period.
The biggest change was the dramatic drop in total milk consumption. It fell from about 130 liters per person in 1950 to only around 90 liters five decades later. The second major was in the type of milk drunk. At the beginning, whole milk was more popular at 120 liters, but it fell sharply to about a quarter that by 2000. In contrast, the amount of low fat milk consumed shot up. It rose from roughly 10 liters in 1950 to five times that in 1980, when consumption was almost tied with whole milk.
In conclusion, the American diet with regard to dairy changes significantly over the time represented. Total consumption decreases but low-fat finally outranks whole milk.
