TOPIC 4 - WRITING EXPERIMENTLEVEL 1 - SAMPLE ESSAY 1 The advantages of the internet to teenagers.

The usage of the internet is very wide especially in this fast development of communication technology nowadays. The Internet serves many purposes especially to teenagers. It is the most popular means of communication to them. Teenagers use it to communicate with each other such as through e-mail, social network and video call. It is very cheap, easy and fast way of communication. Teenagers like to use the internet to look for friends, to exchange ideas or just as a hobby. Besides that, internet serves as a means of entertainment to teenagers. They can have access to all types of entertainment only by a single click of the mouse. They can surf websites such as the You Tube, they can download music and also create their own blog. The internet is their first choice of entertainment compared to television and radio. Moreover, teenagers can use the internet as a source of information that can be useful for them to gain knowledge. This is because the internet is like a library with borderless world of information. This can help the teenagers in their study on certain subject such as geography, history and science. The internet can simply supply all type of useful information to them easily.

2 The disadvantages of the hand phones to teenagers. The vast development of communication based on hand phones is very significant nowadays. Teenagers and hand phones are inseparable. It is becoming part of their daily life. Teenagers use it to communicate with others but they tend to misuse the hand phones. They waste a lot of time talking or sending messages without any limit. Teenagers are becoming so addicted to hand phones that they ignore their responsibility to their life. Other than that, teenagers are wasting a lot of money without knowing it. It becomes a burden of their parents to give them extra pocket money for their children. The maintenance of the hand phones is very high either they use it via prepaid or post paid. They also have to pay services such as internet connection and 3G calls. Moreover, teenagers also can misuse the hand phones by keeping pictures and videos which is inappropriate to them. They use the memory card in the hand phones to keep pornographic pictures that they upload from the internet. They also can secretly taking illegal videos for somebody without their permission.

LEVEL 2 - SAMPLE ESSAY1 Manage your money wisely.

Money does not grow on trees , that is the warning that I normally heard from my mother when she gave me an advice about money. If you fail to manage your money wisely then your life will be in a complicated situation. The first thing to remember about money is saving it. Saving some of your money is a wise step because you may need the money for future use. In time of emergency is the time when you need extra money immediately. You do not have to borrow money from other people if you have your own saving. Make a different bank account and set aside some of your salary into it every month. The second step towards good management of money is planning on how you want to use your money. A smart person will plan ahead on what to buy and what not to buy. Make your own financial budget every month to make sure you are managing your money well. You must give priority on the important things first and keep the unimportant things later. Make a list of things that you want to buy and the things you do not need. The third way is to control your spending habit. You must practice a thrifty way of living. This is also a good moral value in your life. Practice a good spending habit in yourself and your family. It is true that human beings are unable to satisfy their desire but only through discipline and virtue then we can finally achieve it.

2 Unity of a multiracial country in Malaysia. Malaysia is a unique country in many ways. It is a multiracial nation with diversified cultures, customs and religions. The people have been enjoying peace, harmony and unity since independence. In terms of peace and stability, we are much better than many of other neighbouring countries. We must therefore preserve it at all cost. All Malaysian must take the responsibility to help achieve stronger integration and more meaningful national unity. Malaysians must do this by preserving and protecting its many religious festivals and customs. Preserving and protecting this is very important as our goals in achieving integration and national unity. In attaining these goals, all Malaysians must bear a collective responsibility. We must remember to give and take and always put the interest of the country ahead of any narrower communal objectives. Tolerance and understanding has given Malaysia the strength to move forward. Today we are a strong sovereign nation that blessed with peace and prosperity. We must take care of our unity and we must be ready to destroy any threat which may affect our unity

LEVEL 3 - SAMPLE ESSAY1 Love the environment.

The environment is consists of the flora and fauna and also living and non-living things. Human beings and environment are connected and inter dependant with each other in the ecosystem. It is our responsibility to take care of the environment and to love it for the sake of our future generation. Firstly, we must not contribute to pollution. Pollution can occurred due to human activity such as throwing rubbish into the river that can cause water pollution and also air pollution caused by dirty smoke from factory. We can do our part to take care of the environment by not contributing to make this problem severe. Secondly, we must recycle our waste. This is because we must conserve our sources and if we fail to do so then finally all the sources will be gone. For example we must recycle paper because if not, we need to fall down and cut a lot of trees to supply the need of using paper. It is the same with plastic items that need to be recycle to prevent it form damaging the environment. Thirdly, we must use renewable sources such as solar energy and wind energy. Although all these type of energy are still new but we must promote the use of it in order to have cleaner and better environment in the future. We must have the initiative to develop all these renewable sources through research and development

2 Juvenile delinquents. The number of juvenile delinquents is increasing each year. Most of the cases involved are vandalism on public buildings and utilities. The next serious crime involves gang fights, bullying and petty theft followed by immoral activities. The root cause is of course the home. Almost all the cases involve students whose parents are busy working or that they do not monitor their children’s activities. They do not spend enough time on their children and they do not know what their young ones are up to once they leave home. Some parents are too lenient with their children. They often pamper them by giving them too much pocket money. Sometimes they are not aware of where their children go at night, a time when they should be at home doing or revising their schoolwork. If parents do not check on their children movement, later on the children will end up mixing with bad company. Through bad influence, they may indulge in drug-taking or involve in fights among rival groups. Even schools and police may find it is difficult to deal with these spoilt juveniles. Those already involve in these activities should be given proper counselling by their school counsellors.
