The advent of new technology has meant that nowadays machines are more than capable of doing many of the tasks and jobs that people used to There are both advantages and disadvantages to this development One of the main advantages of having machines work relates to speed and efficiency Machines tend to much faster and more efficient at doing repetitive and physical tasks In addition, the human error’s factors are eliminated, further saving time and cost Last but not least, besides some maintenance work, their long term use is much more economical than paying human wages with healthcare, sick leave, annual leave or paid vacation However, there are also several disadvantages, machines cannot be used for every task For instance, a machine cant as yet interface with customers or clients in the same way as human employees or they can create new ideas or concepts in the innovative way that human beings can In other words, machines are unable to show initative In conclusion, machinery certainly plays a significant roles in our society, supporting and freeing up peoples’ work time so that they are able to concentrate more on interesting and complete tasks However, it also has its limitations and these need to be recognized in weighing up their advantages and disadvantages The use of mobile phone has increased dramatically in recent years What are the positive and negative effects of this trend Crime is a global matter and threatens human’s life Although a lot of harsh measures have been taken to tackle it, it seems to us that it is increasing sharply in the world I agree that the crime rate in the world has increased but I strongly believe that this can be solved with step-by-step measures Obviously, The number of criminals has went up dramatically since last decades especially in urban areas One important reason behind it is that expansion of cities and increasing density of people have not been in parallel Another reason is occupation Sadly, the number of jobless individuals has increased globally They committed more money crimes to make earn livings Lastly, with the development of high technology, there are more and more crime related to high technology such as hackers using the Internet to extort from any person any money or other thing of value Some countries have taken actions to address this problem, they restrict those rural people deciding to move into urban areas by encouraging investment to employ local people In addition, some vocational training classes are offered to help them choose a right job Secondly, attempts have been made to offer education to young generation and open more industrial zones to create more job oportunities for them Therefore, the rate of the unemployed is decreasing steadily Finally, Internet crime is tremendous and a big concern in modern world A lot of safety measures with fire wall are built to protect us from internet crime as well as raise public awareness of this crime To sum up, crime rates are available on the Earth But I strongly believe that governments of countries can fight against crime by improving job positions for residents and take right actions to control population and internet issues - ... to take some time off work and want to ask your manager about this Write a letter to your manger in your letter: • • • Explain why you want to take time off work Give details of time you need... bright They remind me of you and our wonderful time there I am sorry I don’t reply to you as soon as possible After I came back home, I spent all of my time preparing for my final exam I was flooded... speak both English and French rather fluently and I find myself self-confident, fluent and quite intelligent in dealing with some emergency situations I would be available for work at any time I
