Professional athletes are frequently presented as modern heroes. Healthy, wealthy and publicly recognized sportspeople seem to make perfect role models for both children and adults. And quite rightly perhaps. Their stories show that doing sports professionally brings obvious benefits, but it is only a part of the entire picture, as professional sport has also a number of evident drawbacks, such as intense pressure or mental stress.

Professional athletes are frequently presented as modern heroes. Healthy, wealthy and publicly recognized sportspeople seem to make perfect role-models for both children and adults.

TAK, ponieważ zakończenie odnosi się do omawianego tematu, czyli zarówno do zalet, jak i wad studiowania za granicą; autor tekstu nie powtarza treści wstępu, tylko wprowadza dodatkową, ale związaną z tematem myśl. Zakończenie jest zwięzłe, nawiązuje do wstępu i rozwinięcia, oraz w sposób logiczny zamyka rozprawkę. Jest poprawne zarówno pod względem struktury, jak i treści.

Uwaga! Zakończenie mogłoby być nieco dłuższe, bardziej zbliżone objętością do wstępu, dzięki czemu forma tekstu byłaby bardziej zrównoważona.

Imagine your country without any regulations concerning drinking alcohol and using drugs. Anybody can get drugs and alcohol and use them no matter how old they are and what they do. It sounds creepy, doesn't it? This is roughly the situation with the internet now. The internet should be regulated. Its full regulation would bring fairness and safety under the law. Data would be protected and harmful content stopped.

Nobody should remain anonymous online. It should be possible to identify internet users if need be. In this way, we will be able to protect our children from abuse, stop people from spreading hateful content and prevent internet scams. It is claimed that the internet cannot be controlled because it does not have any physical space. The truth is, it consists of just sound and pictures sent over large distances. There are plenty of international laws regarding trade or the seas.

It is believed that large international corporations should introduce their own regulations. They are very unlikely to do that because their main aim is to make as much money as possible. Money is often made from illegal content. Can we afford to put up with terrorist and extremist content online? How can we stop it if we do not have any international regulations? What about pornography, all copyrighted material and cybercrime?

The internet must be regulated as soon as possible. It is in the best interest of us all. We do not want to let anybody drink alcohol and use drugs whenever they want. Free speech is essential and so is the safety of our children and our data.

Recycling – is it really important?

Have you ever thought about how much rubbish you throw away? We produce incredible amounts of waste every day. Throwing away rubbish means we are getting rid of our planet’s precious resources. How can we solve this problem? Different ecological organisations work really hard on it.

First of all it is very important for people to realize the damage that our rubbish causes to the environment. If we do not want to turn it into a garbage heap we ought to change our way of thinking and stop being so wasteful. We can no longer afford to throw away non-disposable containers or else there will be no place, river, lake or beach free from the debris of man.

There is absolutely no excuse for throwing away our rubbish. Let’s take advantage of recycling facilities in our cities. There will be no problem if we divide our rubbish into separate containers for glass, paper and metal.

Saving some recyclable materials and taking them to recycling centres should be our basic duty. In this way we will protect our natural environment. By recycling paper, for instance, we will reduce deforestation. We can also buy only ecologically safe products made from or wrapped in recycled material.

Another solution is returning cans, bottles or plastic bottle tops to a store or putting them into special containers.

Recycling is easy, and we all should take part in it because ‘if you’re not part of the solution, you’re part of the problem’.

They’ll hate you for that!

Can the right to free expression really justify any kind of hate speech online? Should it really be protected under the free speech amendment? It is often said that hate speech cannot really be defined, that people have the freedom not to listen to those who spew hatred. Yet I often get a feeling that there is something wrong with the fact that a lot of people get away with the horrible things they write online.

When Fame Turns into Infamy

The world of show business is full of glamour, but sometimes, the actions of celebrities remind us that fame does not always come with grace. At a recent high-profile awards ceremony, a well-known actor shocked audiences with his unacceptable behavior, turning what should have been a night of celebration into a moment of controversy.

The incident occurred when the actor, visibly irritated after losing in his category, interrupted the winner’s speech and made an inappropriate remark. The situation escalated backstage, where he lashed out at a journalist, using offensive language. Within minutes, the footage spread across social media, sparking heated debates. Some defended him, citing stress and industry pressure, while others demanded consequences.

This is not the first time a celebrity has let emotions take over. Will Smith’s Oscars slap or Kanye West’s infamous interruption of Taylor Swift’s speech are examples of stars failing to control themselves in public. While the entertainment industry is undoubtedly demanding, bad behavior should never be excused.

The media should report such incidents responsibly, without glorifying scandals for clicks. Fans must stop justifying their idols' actions simply because of their status. Public figures influence millions and should be held accountable for their mistakes. If we normalize such behavior, we risk encouraging a culture where fame overrides basic decency.

Dear Sir/Madam,

I am writing with regard to your advertisement which appeared in the Daily Mirror on 3rd June 2022. I would like to apply for the teaching position in your kindergarten. I believe I have the education, experience and personality that an excellent teacher needs.

As the enclosed CV indicates, I graduated from Warsaw University with a degree in Pedagogy with distinction. Since my graduation last summer I have been working in a public nursery school. Two years ago, I worked as an au pair in the USA. looking after two small children.

My experience of taking care of small children both in a professional setting and within my family could prove useful for working in your kindergarten. This has given me a great deal of practical knowledge of working with children of different ages.

I feel I am a suitable candidate for this job because I have the virtues needed to be a great teacher – I am patient, cheerful and organized. Most of all I enjoy working with kids and I love playing with them. I am also cooperative and friendly which makes me an ideal candidate for this job. I know the position you offer would be satisfying to me.

If you think my qualifications are suitable I would be grateful for the opportunity to attend an interview. I can also provide references (upon request) from my school. Thank you for your time and consideration.

I look forward to hearing from you.

Yours faithfully,

XYZ

Dear Mayor,

I am writing to you on behalf of all students at Northbank Primary School to talk about the current state of our school building. Just yesterday, my friend Robert injured his leg during a PE lesson. We were playing football when he fell into a hole on the field. There are many holes on the football field, which makes it both difficult and dangerous to play. As a result, Robert will not be able to join PE lessons for the next eight weeks.

Our school was built in the 1930s, and since then it has not been properly renovated. When it rains, we cannot have PE lessons inside because the gym roof leaks. We all use buckets and mops to prevent the floor from getting wet. If we do not do this, we may lose access to the gym entirely.

Additionally, during all our years in school, we have not been able to do any chemistry experiments because there is no chemistry lab. It feels unfair that we have to study in an old, deteriorating school, without a lab, with a leaking roof and a damaged football field.

Please help us, Mr. Mayor. Our headmaster says there is no money for the repairs. We would be very grateful for any help. The repairs do not to be completed all at once. We could start with fixing the roof, then make a chemistry lab, and finally repairing the football field.

I look forward to hearing from you.

Yours sincerely,

The students of Northbank Primary School
