Hi Alikhan, how is it going? How is your family? I hope everything is okay with you, too. I have just moved to a new house in Almaty. My WI-FI works worse than in Bishkek, so that is why I am texting you just now. The reason for moving here is that my parents are working in the same company and they got a raise. I was very happy and excited about it. I would like to meet you soon to hang out. By the way, can I stay at your home for 1 night? I have already asked my parents. The air quality is the same as in Bishkek and my headache is still with me. During the moving we got stuck in the middle of the road because my dad did not want to refuel the car. Some guy helped us and we thanked him. By the time we arrived, we unpacked our boxes. Unfortunately, my room is not as big as the old one but it is very bright. So hope you will reply to me as soon as possible, bye bye!

Dear Alikhan
I have lived in Bishkek for 2 years. I live in a flat with 3 rooms. I sleep on a bed, my little sister and little brother sleep on a bunk bed. In my room is a big closet, table, chair, and balcony. The children’s room has a double bed, table, and a big closet. The living room has a big sofa, TV and air conditioner. Big hall, big closet, mirror. Would like to change the furniture in my room, a new bed and a larger wardrobe. While moving, my sister accidentally left her backpack at the airport. Alikhan, can I stay with you for one night, because I lost my keys and my parents left for 1 day at the beach and will only arrive in the morning. Bye Alikhan 👋 👋 👋 👋 from Matvey

The local newspaper published an article suggesting that schools should no longer have a long holiday over the summer. Write a blogpost outlining the benefits of summer holidays and describing a long summer holiday you have enjoyed.
The problem is that the local newspaper published an article suggesting that school no longer have a long holiday over the summer.
I think that long summer holidays is not just good for fun or something but that summer holiday is needed for students because students are studying 9 months every day,wake up at 7:00 o’clock you need to wake up early,went to school and in private schools you have minimum 6 lessons.
In government school,it is just 3 or 4 lessons.Is hard to go school early in the morning,study 8 hours and after this probably like extra lessons after after having done with extra lessons not everyone went home ,some went to sport or some in 10th or 11th classes working at job to earn some money.
After all that you went home and of course the teachers will give you home tasks.Most students go to sleep at 2:00 or 3:00 pm and they sleep only a couple hours.Because of that the summer holiday is an important holiday.
I don’t have a best holiday,every summer holidays was interesting and memorable for me.Last I traveled with my family,friends like 3-4 times. Most of time a spent with my friends that live in another country or with my brothers and best friends.Last summer I train hardly for world championship of wrestling I enjoyed my time good ,I also work and many interesting things was last summer.My usual summer day in Bishkek was like this .I wake up,after having eaten dinner a chill some time after I went outside to meet with my friends or brothers,we went to somewhere after a went to train and returned to home,I work some time like 1-2 hours and chill, after chilling some time a went again outside after I went to sleep.
Conlusion it’s I think that summer holidays is need for students and also in May June is very hot and it’s impossible to study went in class like 40 degrees.

Today I saw in a newspaper that journalists had an idea to make summer holidays shorter, and make school longer. I was very surprised and went speechless, journalists need to cancel it.
It’s bad because in all summer holidays you got 3 month to relax! Students can get energy, better sleeping cause during school time you need to get up early. In in summer you having fun with your friends, family and classmates also.
I think that it can be very bad for students, because in summer you need to have fun and relax. Summer no the season where you need to study. Last summer I traveled to UK with my brothers. I saw BigBen, went to amazing places and had very delicious and great food. The. I saw Khabib and we wrestled together. After wrestling, we went to dinner. Had a great time, the went to the airport and fly to Bishkek. After landing in Bishkek, I went home.
The conclusion is that most of the students will disagree with that idea. It will be bad for students, kids also. Do I’m saying that it is a problem and journalists need to change their mind.

I was shocked to read an article in my local newspaper suggesting that the schools shouldn’t have long summer holidays.The article suggested that the schools are having too much time in summer holidays and students are getting lazy during this time.I’d like to disagree with it and bring some arguments.
I think it is unfair to cut out holidays cause students are getting overwhelmed during the school year.They are not getting enough time to sleep, don’t have time to travel another country. But summer , students can sleep more, so they will be more productive.They will travel on a comfortable time for them, so they won’t skip school days.Those students who need time to improve themselves ,can do this at home and they will get much time for it.
Last summer , I visited many countries.Visiting Russia,I met a lot of people.I got many much time to explore Moscow city.As I visited Moscow, I jumped from a plane.I slept well everyday And grew my body and improved my organism.Also I was in Korea,I went to a Taekwondo competition.I met my coach’s coach named Li Seung Gyo . I went to courses about IT. I managed to do many thing in summer because of long long Summer holiday.
Schools shouldn’t cancel long school holidays. They have no good readings to do it. They can just cut some weekend days like Sunday or Saturday.And after All of these students will manage to study more lessons.On the weekend, school days should be only 3 hours instead of 7. That’s how you can solve this problem.Schools should listen more to students.

"Coffee - like alcohol - should be banned for children under 18. Defend or attack this statement."
Coffee is one of the most popular as well as important drinks in the modern world. The beginning of the day for adults starts with a cup of coffee, but is coffee more harmless than energy drinks or alcohol, and could people under 18 drink coffee?
For the beginning, we should know how coffee (caffeine) acts on our body. Interestingly, in our body there is a substance called adenosine which gives a signal to the brain that our body is tired and it is time for sleeping. What does caffeine do? Caffeine just blocks this signal, and on the contrary, makes our organism be more active. Moreover, caffeine produces dopamine which improves our mood. However, coffee is not deadly or harmful like alcohol or energy drinks and does not cause any cancers or serious diseases. To die from coffee you need to drink 70 cups.
But is it safe to drink coffee without any consequences?
The average amount of coffee is just about 3-4 cups per day for adults. Furthermore, when you are drinking coffee for the first time you feel cheerful. Unfortunately, it is only for the first time, after this you need to increase portions of caffeine for the same effect as the first time and if you do not stop after some time you will feel insomnia and anxiety. By the way, blood pressure rises, heart beats faster and you could have problems with digestion and clearly an addiction.(Furthermore all energy drinks have caffeine.)
In conclusion, I would say that coffee is not recommended and should be banned for people under 18 years old, because I wrote about adults for you to grasp that there are numerous problems from coffee, obviously for not fully formed child organisms the consequences would be more terrifying than for adults.

"Fast Food is unhealthy and shouldn't be allowed in schools. Defend or attack this statement."
The dangers of fast food
Fast food is bad for students. At all times students work and study hard and sometimes they do not have time to eat. This is the main reason why they start to eat fast food. But most of them do not realize how fast food can influence their health as well as their mind. From my perspective fast food is a bad option for schools and universities and it is certainly a bad meal for students.
Firstly, fast food has bad nutrition. With a huge amount of seed oil, sugar and salt fast food can lead to blood sugar spikes, which cause sudden energy shifts. This can trigger tiredness, frustration, and in general bad well-being in students. Secondly, consuming fast food regularly can also increase stress. Products high in salt, fats and sugars have a bad influence on the nervous system. Research, which was carried out in Spain, found that people who consume fast food have a 40% higher risk of depression compared to those who eat healthier food. Interestingly, another study revealed that diets high in saturated fats and sugars can worsen memory and decrease learning ability, which is especially harmful for students. Thirdly, fast food can lead to addiction and subsequently to obesity.
On the other hand, fast food is cheap, which is a big advantage for students who cannot afford high-quality food, but fruits and vegetables are also cheap. Moreover, salads in groceries are also affordable. Fast food gives students fast energy, but it is short-term energy. They will get hungry fast and easily. Furthermore they will not feel satiated from the food. Students do not have time to cook, but they can prepare wholesome healthy meals in advance in their spare time.
Consequently, consuming fast food is a bad idea for students who study hard. They must be aware of what they eat.

"Write an argumentative essay discussing the dangers and risks of sugar in your diet."
Sugar is a carbohydrate which gives the body energy. The most famous type of sugar it’s - sucrose,which contains glucose and fructose. Now, sugar is an essential part of our everyday life. He is added to many products that we eat. But excessive sugar consumption brings really serious problems with healthy. That is why it is worth to thinking about how sugar is dangerous for us.
Frequently, we like to eat something sweet after a meal. Most of people’s find it difficult to control because sugar is like a drug that can make you addictive.Obviously, on the one hand sweet products are tasty and delicious, but on the other hand sugar overconsumption can bring different illnesses, for example: diabetes, overweight, problems with heart and caries.
Some people’s can say that sugar is a source of energy, and they would will be right, but is this good for us? No. Sugar doesn’t contain the necessary vitamins, so it doesn’t provide nutritional value. Energy that we geot from sugar doesn’t have give a long-time effect, instead of feeling strong we feel fatigue and lethargy.
So, our conclusions are that sugar is unhealthily and unwanted in our diet. We have many good and healthy alternatives in natural products like:
honey - process useful properties, reduces risks of heart disease.
fruits - fructose doesn’t increase insulin level in blood.
Sugar reduction and his replacement can do general conditions and quality of life much better.

"Write an argumentative essay discussing the dangers and risks of sugar in your diet."
Sugar is an additive that is found in almost every food we eat. Obviously, not everyone will agree with me, but I believe that sugar is bad for us, and I will explain why.
First, it causes weight problems. Unfortunately, foods that contain sugar tend to be high in calories. Second, chocolates and sweets lead to many children developing cavities or other dental issues.
Sugar gives you energy, but it is short-lived, and after this brief boost, you feel tired. While sugar is delicious, we can consume naturally occurring sugars, like those found in fruits, which are tasty and healthier.
These are the reasons why sugar is bad for us, and you should keep track of how much sugar you consume each day.

A story about a problem caused by a truth.
This story happened when I was 6 years old. One day, far back in my childhood my father called me. It was summer. Peaceful and calm days. I was playing with my favorite toys in my room while my father called me to tell me something. I felt a bit interested in. I ran to him, and he told me: “We will go to the entertainment park, daughter, in two days with your mother.” There was no end to my happiness. I was shining and excited.
One day ago, I was already ready for our journey. I was packing my things when my father called me again. He told me we will be at the entertainment park at 3 o’clock. What made me happy was that I did not have any school and practice that day, which meant I was free and could do whatever I wanted. I already started planning my tomorrow’s outfit, hairstyle, and shoes.
The next day at 12 o’clock, I was having lunch and imagining my happy event. It was almost 3 hours before going to the park. My mother came to my room and started doing my hairstyle. My father was talking to someone, and I was waiting for him.
Two and a half hours later, I was already in thea car. We were riding to an entertainment park. What made me excited was that the day was sunny and bright. I had always had known the road to the entertainment park, but we were riding the wrong way. I was confused. I started feeling nervous, what was wrong?
Suddenly, with the corner of my eye I saw something familiar. I saw that place and a new feeling came to me, it was disappointment and betrayal. I was hurt. They told me a the lie. The truth was that we were not going to the park, we were going to the hospital.
After my session in the hospital, my father apologized, and he bought me a teddy bear. I was sad, but it did not last long.

"Tell a story where telling the truth caused a problem."
Today I woke up, but at night I played a computer game. I am so sleepy, but I go to school. The next few hours, I tried not to sleep and the speaking lesson started. Mister gives homework: Write a story about “telling the truth that caused a problem”. After this lesson I forgot my homework. School is over and I go home. I fall into my bed very fast and sleep.
Oh no! It's almost morning! I didn't do my homework. With sadness I go to school. For breakfast, I try to take my phone and use Chat GPT. But my classmates saw this. She said “go out!” So angry. Okay maybe for lunch. It is the perfect time to take my phone. And another teacher said, “Hey can you help me? Please bring all these boxes outside” … Okay. Lunch is over. I had nothing that could help me. Speaking lesson started.
All students did their homework. I just wait. Mister, give me a question. “Where is my homework?” “I didn't do my homework.” “Why?” “Because I sleep.” “I give you 2!”
This destroyed my life. My parents beat me. They said no computer, no playing with friends, just studying. I must get revenge on everyone!
