The pie chart indicates the percentage of farmland becoming less solid because of different reasons which are deforestation, over – cultivation and over – grazing. Besides that, the table shows the result of these causes in specific areas which are North America, Europe and Oceania by percentage in 1990s.

Essay: Affection of technologies on human's relationship


Topic: Nowadays, the way people interact with each other has changed because of technology.
In what way has technology affected the type of relationship people make?
Has this become a positive or negative development?


Nowadays, the way many individuals keep in touch with each other is an issue which frequently generates a great deal of heated debate. With supporters remaining that it is vital to accept that technologies create a good effect on making people become nearer, whilst opponents claim that now people only know about their virtual world and forget the real world. The arguments surrounding such issue will be hence be discussed in this essay.

Upon initial examinations, it cannot be denied that today, people always interact with each other through social networks such as Facebook. Taking my experience as an example, in 5 years ago, on my birthday, a lot of my friends came and gave me presents and the best regard but now, a lot of notifications and e – mails send to me instead of the real people on that day. As a consequence, more and more individuals communicate through the social networks instead of meeting each other.

However, it is not always the case. Despite the fact that technologies have a lot of advantages but it makes a large impact on human’s relationship. Up to a point, many people become lazy and cannot control themselves. The most obvious instance to prove is that everyday it announces a lot of teenager criminal who has addicted game online. That is to say, technologies also have negative affect that people should avoid.

Taking everything into consideration, it can be concluded that the benefits of technologies still far outweigh the obstacles. The course of action would be to attempt to achieve a balance between improvement of technology and the human’s interaction. It is my firm conviction that people should communicate to other people by meeting each other instead of using modern technologies

Idiom of fear




1. Shaking like a leaf : means that when someone is too scare that they cannot stop moving

2. Scared stiff: So frightened tat you cannot move

3. It sends shivers up and down my spine: something frightens you very much (useless in Ielts)

Sometimes when i was a little boy, I was scared about the ghost story. Whenever I heard a haunting from my sister I was usually "shaking like a leaf" but it never make me "scared stiff" so My mother always told that I was a brave boy :">.  And now I know that ghost is just imagination and I do not believe in it. But rarely I read a frightening story . maybe "It sends shivers up and down my spine" :-SS

Essay: Credit cards and loans








Topic: Many people are using credit cards or loans to run up huge personal debts that they may be unable to repay. It should therefore be made more difficult for individuals to borrow large amount of money.












It is unarguable that nowadays, credit card is becoming more and more popular. Many people use them and some people have to have at least two. However, a lot of people say that “Using credit cards or loans makes lavish private liability that individual cannot pay for, which create more difficulties people to borrow cash from banks” I strongly agree with this argument and in this essay I will show you more detailed about it.

First of all, now people can have a credit card or debit card easily. Most banks usually encourage their customers create new card and it also make individual feel more convenient especially with their shopping. Unfortunately, people often use money, which is bigger than the real money that have. For example, individual who are shopaholics always buy a lot of things, which may force them, have to borrow money from bank so that make their personal debt become larger and unable to pay.

On the other hands, many individuals usually go to bank and ask for borrowing money to set up their business idea. Many recent researches have shown that there is a variety of business idea created by people everyday but most of them do not work effectively in the real situation as the individuals think. In addition, when the bank releases loan for one ineffective personal idea, it makes the number of their unrepay debt increase. Therefore, it is more difficult for people to borrow the large money from bank.

To sum up, using credit cards and loans from bank may not only make you more convenient but also provide an opportunity for your business idea but it also create your private liability become huger. So individual should think carefully and clearly before borrowing money from bank.
