It is critically important to have a right attitude toward children's nurture, as it can affect their future life
profoundly. I am of the opinion that most of the children's times should be filled with educational and
school-related activities. I think this way based on two main reasons, which I will explore in what
follows.
To begin with, being involved in educational tasks, children will be able to identify their talents with the
aid of their parents, which paves the way for having a successful future. To clarify, one of the most
important factors contributing to children's success in the future is sufficient practice in their interests so
that they can be expert in their favorite field when it comes to choosing a career. However, this is not
easily possible, given the fact that in school environments most teachers encourage students to go
through fields that are considered to be with more job prospects. In fact, they deprive pupils to find
their own latent abilities, making their minds biased toward their future. This, in turn, will take its toll on
children's professional future and may affect their lives negatively. Knowing this, home environment
with supervision of parents is a perfect opportunity for parents to provide a suitable bed for their
offspring so that they can try various fields of study which will be taught in school. In this manner,
without feeling any pressure from their surroundings, children will be able to show their tendency
toward their interests, which not only helps them to do their favorite educational tasks, but also helps
their parents to guide them properly.
To add, performing tasks associated with school will prepare children for their school time, and they will
have an easy time dealing with their courses. In other words, nowadays, with advancement of science in
various spheres, scientific courses have been made extremely heavy in order to prepare them for the
advanced and science-oriented world in the future and require students to put a great deal effort in
order to succeed. This change in educational curriculum of students has been so dramatic that many
students get surprised dealing with their school courses. Under such circumstance, it is of extreme
importance for children to be prepared in advance so that they can digest this sophisticated level
knowledge in their minds. In this regard, parents can provide their children with proper introductory
courses and practices, which can be conducive to finding a rational view of their courses in school.
Practicing in this way, children will be more likely to succeed in their schools.
In short, I strongly subscribe to the idea that children should be involved in activities that resembles
their school tasks. Not only does this manner helps them and their families to see in which kind of fields
they are more interested, but also they will practice school activities in advance, which will help them be
prepared for their school.
Sometimes filmmakers make movies that are based on books. When a movie is based on a
book, some people prefer to read the book before watching the movie. Other people prefer
to read the book only after they have watched the movie. Which do you prefer and why?
Watch the movie prior to read the book
One of the most important mechanisms of filmmaking industry is taking advantage of perfect
books and turn them into a highly amazing movie. I, personally, subscribe to the idea that
people should study the book which have been made the subject for a new movie before
watching the film. I feel this way based on two main reasons, which I will explore in what
follows.
To begin with, given the elaborate information found in the books, spectators will find a
profound understanding of the movies made of the books. To clarify, obviously, the expansive
sheets of a book is a highly better place for detail information of a story. Using this, writers
exploit this chance properly and stick to every tiny detail and explain it elaborately. By doing so,
they pave the way of reaching the concept of the book easily for the readers. However, short
time of a movie, regarding its common form, does not allow the producers to take audiences
through every detail and the audiences have to get many notions of the films based on the
implications and the connection between various scenes. Therefore, engaging in reading a book
before watching its corresponding movie provides the readers to grasp every subtle concept
behind the numerous actions and scenes of the movie.
To add, studying the books prior to the films made based on them, audiences will be provided
with the chance to see if the film was a perfect development of the book by the director. In
other words, one of most controversial debates around movies which have been prepared on
the basis of a novel or a written story is the success of the director evolving the book’s thoughts
professionally. In this regard, expert audiences and critics expect the directors to expand the
notion of the film not just in a simple reflection or a mere copy of the story instead, they want
the filmmakers to add their own thoughts and intellects to the concept of the book. Otherwise,
the produced movie will be criticized intensively. Knowing this, by reading the book in advance,
audiences especially those who are the fond of the movies will find the opportunity to view the
movie in a critical perspective, meaning that if the director has been successful to expand the
idea of the book more intellectually and create something unique using the same story
narrated by words of the writer.
In short, I strongly believe that we, as audience, should read the books on which a movie has
been produced. Not only does the detail provided in the book give us a helping hand to better
comprehending the film but also, it prepares a suitable bed to evaluate the film's success
reflecting the book's concept.
TPO 55- Task1
The reading mentions that the idea of using box-shaped devices to battle against
desertification will not succeed and provides three reasons of supports. However, the
professor argues that the reasons offered by the passage are not convincing and thinks
the new idea is worth to be implemented. She opposes each of the author's reasons.
First, the passage claims that using the box-shaped device will not be affordable for
countries, as the number of required devices will be numerous, considering the growing
millions of trees. The audio, conversely, contends that when young trees grow, the used
device can be removed and reused for another young tree. She adds that regarding this
reusing policy, each device can be implemented 20 times, which makes the whole
process more reasonable in terms of economy.
Second, the text avers that the process of desertification using the new device requires
the involvement of local people, and since the growing trees does not have any food
yield for local people, it would be hard to motivate them to contribute. The lecturer
asserts that there is a potential prize in this plan that can be considered as a good
incentive. She explains that after the used devices were removed, they can be used for
growing plans that local people use for their food values. What is more, the matured
trees can serve local people as a source of fire wood with their branches, which is of
great importance for them.
Finally, the scripts states that the potential of new device is modest and it cannot collect
significant amounts of water. The lecture declares that after the trees grow older, they
will be more resistant to severe condition of the desert, as their roots grow deep in the
earth and they can reach the moist beneath the layers of soil. She adds that a research
in Sahara Desert showed that most of the mature trees were able to thrive even after
removing the device.
