Final Skills Posts

 There are lots of students who want to learn English. Also, there are lots of English camps these days. Today, I will compare and contrast two different English camps. There are two camps. They are Camp Big Apple, and another is Ranch West Camp.
 First, they are all held abroad. We have to go to another country to attend these camp. Second, we can have fun experiences. In Camp Big Apple, we can go to Broadway shows, tour New York and go to local museums. In Ranch West Camp, we can do horseback riding, river rafting, and lots of fun activities.
 There are lots of contrasts. In Camp Big Apple, we study nfor three weeks. However, in Ranch West Camp, we study for four weeks. Also, Camp Big Apple focus on big university exams such as the SAT. On the contrary, Ranch West Camp focuses on finding the talents of the students. When we participate on Camp Big Apple, students live in dormitories. In contrast, students are in home-staying situations when they participate in Ranch West camp.
 The camp I would like to go to is Camp Ranch West. We home-stay during the camp.Therefore, we can learn living with foriegn people while homestay. Also, it is located in rural area, so we can breathe fresh air. Also, I can choose the subject which I want to study. Rof these reasons, I prefer Camp Ranch West than Camp Big Apple.

Summary : Shark Attacks
 Many people worry about shark attacks when they go into the water. However, there is very low possibility being attacked by a shark, but chance of fatal attack is very low. Dieng of drowning is rather more than attacked by a shark. Drowning chance is about 1 out of 3.5 million, but chance of shark attack is about 1 out of 11 million. To decrease the chance of getting attacked by a shark, then you have to get out of water when you have cut.

Paraphrase :
Real one :
 It is more likely that you will be struck by lightening. In the coastal states of the U.S, about 180 people are struck by lightning every year, but only about 11 people are attacked by sharks. Of those 11 attacks, chanes are that only one of them will be fatal.
Changed one :
 The possibility of getting hit by a lightening shot is way more high. Approximately, 180 people are annually
hit by a lightning shot in state near the sea. However, only 11 people get shark attacks at a year. At those counts, only 1 attack will be lethal.

What the world eats

 Hello, I live in North Carolina, and we live very affluently. In the morning, I ate apple, and bread with raspberry jam and milk. It was very delicious. After 3hours, I ate chips. The chips were from Mexico, and it was very delicious. At lunch time, I ate hamburger from Burger King. I ate the burger very fast. I was very hungry. Also, I ate coke. After 5 hours, me and my brother ate 2 pizzas. They were peperoni and cheese pizza. I think pizza is a one food that I will love forever. At dinner time, my family made taco and ate. I ate 3 tacos. My brother ate 5 tacos. I think his appetite is very strong. Tomorrow, at dinner, we will do barbeque party. Barbeque is one of my favorite food. However, usually I think of my diet. I sometimes worry of my health, too. Last year, I went to hospital and the doctor said that I had too much cholesterol. I think I have to reduce my diet and think about my health.
