Writing Feedback / [TOEFL] Random roommate or roommate you choose, which one is better? [5]

TOPICYou have been told that dormitory rooms at your university must be
shared by two students. Would you rather have the university assign a
student to share a room with you, or would you rather choose your own
roommate? Use specific reasons and details to explain your answer.

People are different. If I have to stay with another student in dormitory together, it will take abundant of time to adapt myself, and so will my roommate. Some people may become good friends, but some people might not suitable for me. In addition, when people know each other well and stay together on dorm, these people do not worry about their stuff in dorm will missing. Thus, I prefer to choose my roommate by myself.

To begin with, when I was a little, I used to buy lottery ticket. I completely confident in myself that I would win, but it turn out I did not win the lottery. These made me feel sad because I did not get the result which I expected. From this story, I learnt that selecting roommate by university is not an option that I am willing to follow because I might have someone that is not compatible with me. For example, he might smoking in dorm, turn music very loud, and so on. This may lead to serious problems. Consequently, I could not focus on my student well. Choosing someone I know to be my roommate is best options for me. So that, I will select my roommate by myself.

Moreover, when two people know each other well and stay together in dormitory, they are always give trust to each other. For example, for me, choosing someone that I know well is not make me concern about losing my stuff in my dorm. I do not have to worry about hiding some valuable stuffs from my roommate. My roommate is also trust me not to worry about him stuffs. In contrast, random roommate who is selected by university may possibly make me afraid of losing my stuffs. As a result, I would rather choose my own roommate.

Conclusion, from this statement, if I have to stay with someone in dormitory, I prefer to select someone by myself rather than selected by university because I do not want to stay with someone that totally different and uncomfortable to stay with. Besides, choose someone I know well is that I would not to worry about mystuffs in my room, and so would my roommate. So that, in my opinion, I prefer to choose my roommate by myself.

Writing Feedback / Paying teacher basing on grade that students got is not appropriate and not fair [6]

TOPIC : Do you agree or disagree with the following statement? Teachers should
be paid according to how much their students learn. Give specific
reasons and examples to support your opinion.

Everyone is different. Although students are in the same process of education system, learning abilities in each students are not equal. Some students are fast learner, but some students are not. Thus, paying for teacher base on grade that students got is not appropriate, and it is not fair for teacher. So that, I disagree with this notion.

To begin with, in schools, main task of teacher to give knowledge to students, and this role have to finish in time. there are certain period of time for teachers to teach. In these short time, it is not possible for teachers to pay attention to individual students in class. Teachers have to manage to teach every topics by schedule. If teachers pay attention to specific students, their work might not finish on time, and this might make many student miss some field in topics that they should know.

Second, learning abilities in each students is different. It is not possible that they all comprehend all lessons in the same period of time. Some students might understand all topics that they had learnt but some are not. Therefore, testing result are different. This problems depend on how hard study they do. It is not teachers fault. Thus, teachers should not be paid by testing result that students get.

Lastly, there could lead to a big problem if schools pay teachers by grade that students get. That is problem in quality of education. Teacher may not care about how they have to teach to make students understand the topics. Teachers may just give high grades to get higher salary. This problem should not be happened. Therefore, grade that students get should not be in evaluating teacher.

In conclusion, I totally disagree with this statement that teachers should be paid by how much their students learn because teacher could not pay attention to each students in class. Besides, learning abilities of student are different. Moreover, there are problems if paying teacher by grade students get.

It would be great if someone could rate or make comments on my essay. Thanks.

TOPICSome people think governments should spend as much money as possible exploring outer space (for example, traveling to the Moon and to other planets). Other people disagree and think governments should spend this money for our basic needs on Earth. Which of these two opinions do you agree with? Use specific reasons and details to support your answer.

government should pay attention on basic needs, space travel don't meet that criterion

Although developing technologies to discover amazing thing in galaxy is interesting, there are many people in the world are in poverty or starvation. Thus, these technologies mean nothing if people lack of prosperity. Therefore, in my opinion, I accede with notion that government should pay attention on basic needs of people first.

First, as you can see that after great economic recession, many people in many countries were unemployed. Then, many people did not have money. When people did not have money, They had to rob other people. There were increasing in criminal rate in many cities. Consequently, quality of life were dropping and this make people unhappy. So that, government should invest to create more jobs. When people have jobs, they did not have to steal money. Therefore, criminal rate were drop. Thus, people have a good quality life.

Second, environment is also important issue that everyone depend on it. Nowaday, industrial in many countries still emit high intense of carbon dioxide, which caused of greenhouse effect. Greenhouse effect causes of climate change. These impact on every living creature in the world. So, government take care of this issue by declare regulate to control emission of carbon dioxide. In addition to controlling emission carbon dioxide, government should invest in alternative energy such as using solar energy instead of coal energy. If we lived in good environment, our life would be better.

Lastly, family is a root of society. If everyone in family did not have time to spend with each other, that family could have problems, If family had problems, it mean society could have problems. When society had problems, it could impact to a nation. Thus, government should create campaign to fill love to family. For example, setting event once a week to gather everyone in family to spend time with each other. When family understand each other, it mean society and a nation will not have much trouble.

In conclusion, I personally agree with statement that government should spend money on basic people needs. The basic needs: jobs, good environment, and love in family. These three issues are the most important basic needs of people in my opinion that government should pay attention on to improve quality life of people.

and email have made communication between people less
personal. Use specific reasons and examples to support your
opinion.

There are many advantage of these invention, telephones and email. Communication between people by using telephones and email made my life easier. I personally disagree with this notion that these types of communication, telephones and email, made people less personal. I will give several reasons to support my opinion.

To begin with, telephones and email help people, who live far away from other people, to connect each other. Unlike email, send message by using mail service could be lost and could be sent to wrong address. I can using telephones and email to talk or write directly to people I want to connect with. For example, right now, I am in the U.S. It is not possible to have conversation in person with my parents, who live in my country. Consequently, I can make a phone call or write email to my parents whenever I want. Telephones and email made me feel close to my parents.

Second, Using telephones and email could express some important words better than face-to-face communication. For instant, sometime when I argue with my friends, I cannot express my self to my friends at that moment. So, when I have a time to realize what had happened, I could explain the real thought that I want to express without emotion. Thus, these types of communications make me feel personal.

Telephones and email make me feel personal because I could directly connect with people that I love. Beside, I could express my personal thought through telephones and email. As a result, I believe that telephones and email do not make communication between people less personal.
