There is an assumption that government should be supported unemployed people temporary with cell phone while critics against it.

I partly agree with the viewpoint

Writing Feedback / IELTS Task II: Dress reflects Chracter [10]

Some people believe that a person character is reflected by how they dress. Others said that the way she (he) dresses may not say anything about what the y really like. Discuss both these views and give your opinion.

answer

"Don't judge the book by its cover" is the common English expression that we usually heard. This terminology probably affects some people to perform as much as his (her) expectancy. Therefore, people tend to cover their body with nice stuff which is directly portrayed their characters. In the previous, the expression guides some people point of view for marked someone's character as his (her) appearance while critics disagree about this.

Behaviour is a product of mental aspects. Indeed, behaviour is not merely about how their walking, talking, or thinking . It is also consisting in how they dresses which is seen as a media to express their character. The style of dressing inclines people taste and unconsciously picturing their character. For instance, girly woman likes to wear colorful pattern with unique accessories as complement. On other hand, elegant man , likes to use simple shirt pattern with less ornament. The pro group usually takes evaluation about human characteristic just in surface with their first impression, and this is not fair indeed because people have several backgrounds which cannot understand just in a minute.

Nevertheless, the opponent groups resist this opinion. They tend to argue that knowing someone characters from the appearance is not wise enough. Human character is complicated and deeply need assessment to decide where group of character involve. For example, we should use some psychological measurement to decide people as shy person or childish such as EPPS or Kraeplin. This is the valid way to conclude someone. I tend to agree with this opinion because this is far from common sense.

In conclusion, to understand well other people characters needs some assessment stuff and we have to know people from entire of their background not just from the appearance .

Writing Feedback / Some people deny changes and choose to stay in their comfort zone [10]

People naturally resist making changes in their lives. What is the kind of problems can cause this? What solution you suggest? Give the reasons for your answer and include any relevant examples from your own knowledge or experience.

answer
Human change is a natural law. Some people, however, against changes and chooses to stay in their comfort zone; while, the others have hard effort to get variation in their life. Therefore, the human changes also followed by several triggers which are personally different. Anyway, I believe that being resistant cannot develop people to get actualization. Then, we should be braver to out of our comfort zone.

It is undeniably that most of people are staying in the circumstance of their coziness. They tend to do their daily presented and noted as the destiny that they should do. For instance, a marriage women do their daily as house wife such as clearing house, cooking, serving husband without any desire to do more outdoor. However, sometimes convenient life occurs because people are afraid to face the different environment. We can see that most graduated school children do not prefer to continue their study neither in the same city nor in abroad.

Futhermore, as a developing figure, we should improve ourselves to be better life. This can be gained if we bravery breaking our comfort zone and facing the new challenge for actualize ourselves. For example, Hellen Keller, dumb orator, braved to defeat her weakness and success became proficient with her disability. This success story is not only for Hellen but also for people who broke the block inside his (hers).

To sum up, it is difficult to overcome from a good condition; therefore, we might brave to move forward for self actualization purposes.

Writing Feedback / IETLS: The revolution of nuclear technology brings huge merits and also demerits [3]

To what extend is nuclear technology a danger to life on Earth, What are the benefits and risks associated with its use.

Nowadays unchangeable energy sources stock becomes less, while nuclear technology appears as new impressive source energy beside fossil fuel. Evidently, this feature raises paradoxal view relating to the essential and the destruction factors followed.

One of the benefits of nuclear technology are for valuable source using to ensure energy for human basics. In the previous, some countries fulfill the dweller electrical needs with extending energy of fossil fuel or with exploiting the natural resources. Indonesia State Electrical Company (PLN), for example, uses voltage regulator modifying fossil fuel become electrical energy. This way viewed has number of weakness because cost production is tailed by oil fluctuation price. However, this view raises desire for some countries to develop nuclear energy to fulfill the domestic needs of electricity. Iran, western Asia country, recently develops the nuclear technology for domestic electricity consumption. Policy to use the alteration of nuclear is seen as effective decisions which need little of nuclear atom for produce huge energy.

Nevertheless, nuclear also has the weaknesses. The huge power, covered by petite nuclear atom, has drawback and it is very sensitive exploit. However, not only nuclear explosion influences human until the smallest entity but also the radiation itself causes degenerative consequence, while there is impossible way to reform. For example, the Chernobyl tragedy or the Fukushima burst has horrific impact for locals surround. Residual of nuclear causes dead of creature or strange mutation which cannot predict. However, the impact also influence environment. Ecosystem affected by atomic nuclear transform to irregular structure that unnatural.

In conclusion, the revolution of nuclear technology brings huge merits and also demerits. It is wise to proper the entire stabilization of cycle in the sphere before decide developing this feature.

Writing Feedback / IELTS TASK I: Earnings in London City [6]

last night I already post this essay but I can find in my treads
appreciate for some corrections, thankyou

The schematic below was portrayed revenue comparison between male and female in London City for 1985 and 1995 in several sectors including commodity trading, banking, insurance, and currency dealing.

The chart uncovered London city total revenue in 1985 was around 3,355 million pounds. This number was more doubled in 1995 by 6,710 million pounds. However, it interesting to seek more what sectors of financial contributes more for this increasing. The data emphasized Banking sector donates the least, while the currency dealing becomes the top most with more than 50 per cent of total revenue.

Thus, more than 10 years the gender was contributed for the economic movement. The average of annual salary for male and female executive in 1985 was different around a half; the similarity was for insurance sector by 20,000 pounds. Moreover, the condition was almost similar in term 1995. The differences between gender salaries caught in several economical fields, excepting in currency dealing with 8,000 pounds.

In other hand, the movement of income of each gender between 1985 and 1995 is merely no more than tripled. For examples, female executive in banking gains 8,000 pound in 1985, then dramatically increase to 22,000 pounds in 1995. In addition male executive who works in currency dealing, earns 15,000 pounds and rose become 40,000 in the next 10 years.

In summary, total earning in London City depended on the gender salary increasing in each financial sector.

Hi, mika

On the other hand, the opponents of the ban argue that as long as they are legal products, there need not be any limitations for such advertisements.

"are" is the compliment for they. I can't find the verb in the main clauses.

In fact, it is better for beholders to use well-known and authenticated products rather than poor and unqualified ones, although there might be a risk for not interested people to become interested in such devitalizing products.

Writing Feedback / IELTS Task II : Briton vehicle developing [3]

The Briton ownership vehicles in 21st century are unstoppable, since the invention in 1888 nowadays rises become 29 million vehicles in British road. However, the new mode of transportation and also regulation should be pondered to anticipate this rapid growth in the future.

The growth of transportation cannot separate with the increasing of economics that makes people afford personal mode of transport. However it related also with city density and pollution. The executives, with full scheduled job, have highly movement that makes them suddenly moving onto another place, whether this is one of the reasons personal cars using. In other hand, environmental effect cannot divide directly with this phenomenon. Increasing of vehicles means enormous carbon dioxide in the air. Air pollution has degenerative effect of global warming. It can be reduce with highly awareness of dweller to become friendlier with the environment embody; prefer to use public transportation.

What is more, to dealt with this problematic should be present effective concept soonly. Government should be re-arrange manufacturing law rules to limit production of highly poisoned vehicles. It is seen as an effective ways to motivate a friendly environmental invention for automotive fabrication. In other hand, pursuit inhabitant to use public transportation is should be still promote more. The unique feature can interesting passenger to join in, while this can effectively reduce the number of congestion, such as British Electric Vehicles (BEV). BEV released in 2005 and become public vehicles which contain with electric locomotive that can reduce the harm effect of air pollution. The other way to reduce personal cars is augment the tax which reduces intention to ride for inhabitants in the crowded city place.

Overall, the strict regulation to control the car using should be take an serious not only for a while but also for sustainable period.

Writing Feedback / IELTS Task II : Accepting Change Vs Resisting Change [5]

People naturally resist making changes in their lives. What kind of problems can cause this? What solution you suggest? Give the reasons for your answer and include any relevant examples from your own knowledge or experience.

answer

It is an astonishment that people keep in circling comfort zone, whether world changing force most of inhabitants to take a challenge. Unconsciously most of them are inward the bottom of Marlow hierarchy needs.

The schematic of Maslow's hierarchy needs, depicted with shape of pyramid, divides needs of human become five layer including; physiological, safety, belonging, esteem, and self actualization, those are chronological. What is more, comfortable feel in a stage yield unenthusiastic circumstancing live for them. Thus, people who have been worried about "stomach" tend to pursue salary, while the type, position, career path, and job satisfaction become unnecessary. Nevertheless, workers who have changing embryo rise their behavior in order to challenge him/herself. This type of workers usually finds job which dealt with their passion because of self actualization purpose. For example, Walt Disney has been decided becoming a cartoonist while banker is looked a luxurious job for society.

The possible solution should be reflected personally but probably developing from parenting style become proper. Parents have to invested curiosity and also passionate desire for their children. For example, Parent initiates children to take a part in many competitions which suitable with their aptitude probably, modeling, sports, arts, or science. Moreover, it can be stimulate child's sense of changing.

In the nutshell, I believe that change is the essence of humankind, while it should be began from the childhood.
