Letter to Malala by Giorgiana

19/11/12

Dear Malala,

I saw your video and it really shocked me. I am very sad about what happened to you. I think you are right and every single girl has a right to go to school. If it was me, I would have done the same.

I believe that every child has a right to education and safe life. A world without a school is a world without hope.

Do people think about the girls' lives? I don't think so. They just want them to be good wives. I think people who force their daughters to be married instead of sending them to schools when they are children, should be punished.  


I send all my love to you and I hope you will get better soon!

Giorgiana

Dear Malala,

I admire you seriously because of you, more girls may be allowed to go to school now.

61 million children are not in school at present. They are child labourers.

Many children around the world love you.



Thank you Malala, for doing this.

Dear Malala,

I am very sorry about your story. I think that you are an example for all the girls, because of you more girls will go to school.

A world without a school is a world without hope. And I believe that every child has a right to education, health care and a safe life.

Thanks to the charity which was established in your name called I am Malala more children will be able go to school.

Thank you for doing this.

Dear Malala,

Many people are proud of you. You are very brave and thoughtful. You are a gift for all the children around the world who can't express their emotions.

We all know that a world without a school is a world without hope. Many children would like to go to school but they have lots of problems. But I know that you are going to make big changes in these children's lives.

Thank you Malala. We are hoping for your good health.

Best wishes from,
Michelle

Dear Malala,

I am very sorry for what happened to you. What you did was good. I also believe that every child has a right to education. I have seen your video clips and made me very sad. It is not fair that so many children are not allowed to go to school. A world without school is a world without hope!
Malala, your speech has really touched me and all the other people around the world.

Thank you Malala. I hope you will get well soon!

Dear Malala,

We know your story. I didn't know that kids of our age or younger were having so many problems nowadays.

I imagined myself waking up one morning and being in these very difficult conditions. I know I am not a girl but I support you and your ideas about education, safey and life.

I hope you get well soon, keep strong and continue sharing your ideas with the world because we all are with you. We realise the importance of education and teachers. Education is the way of getting a better life.

Carlos

Dear Malala,

I am very sorry about what happened to you but you should know that you are a symbol for a lot of people because of your strong mind.You  helped many people who want to study.

When I watched the videos of you, I felt very sad, because there are so many children who want to study but they can't. It's either because they don't have schools or their parents would not allow them.

Education is very important for everyone. Thank you very much for all you've done.

Cambridge IGCSE E2L Coursebook 2, Unit 19: Competition entry to win a techno jacket 2

Hi,
My name is Brindha and you may wonder why I want to win this techno-jacket competition.
I am fan of Mr. Conte because he designs fashionable clothes. I wear clothes that he designs. Sometimes these clothes are easy to afford but since he designed the techno-jacket, I didn't have the opportunity to get myself such an expensive jacket.

I think I should win because my birthday is soon and it will be a very nice present.

The techno-jacket has high technology and it will be very useful at home, because I will only need my jacket to receive calls or phone others. I can also listen to music with my jacket. This jacket will really make my everyday life easier.

I'm certain that I deserve this prize because I deserve a good present for my birthday and you will help a fan of Mr. Conte.

Thank you,
Brindha

_______________________________________________________________________________

Hi,
I want this new techno-jacket because it plays music. If I win this jacket all the others will have eyes on me when I wear it, because it is very different than any other jacket.

If I designed this jacket, I would put another function to change the colour like D.I.Y, I would put pictures on the jacket and a touch button to change these pictures.

Thank you,
YiHeng
_______________________________________________________________________________

Hello,
I want to win the techno-jacket, because if I want to buy myself, I have to spend a lot of money. I am writing this article to tell you the reasons and what I will do with this jacket, if I win it.
The techno-jacket looks nice and it's a designer work. He worked really hard to make it.
If I win the jacket, I'm going to use and look after it very carefully. I like that I can listen to music with this jacket.

I think I deserve to win the prize but there are many people who write to your company to win as well. I would like your company to give the prize to someone who really deserves this jacket.

I wish you all the best!
Piruntha

Hi,

The main reason I want this jacket is that, it is really cool. Nowadays, there aren't many shops selling techno jackets, so I think this is a good opportunity, to get one and enjoy the new, fresh and cool features.

I'd make a good use of the new built phone and mp3 player technology. First of all I'd show it to all of my friends and then I'd listen to music and receive calls from my friends.

Finally I deserve to win this prize, because I am the number 1 fan of clothing technology. I am really interested in this kind of staff, and I find it awesome.

Thank you,
Sergio

____________________________________________________________________________

Hello,
Techno-jacket is the most wanted future clothing. It is a new way of making clothes. It looks like a normal jacket but includes technology inside it. All this technology would make life easier. It contains mobile phone and mp3 player.
The reason I want to win the competition is that, if I have children in the future, I can control them when they go out. It has a micro-chip that connects with 'maps phone application'. I can also listen to music outside without carrying a seperate mp3 player.

Thank you,
Carlos
 





 

   

Cambridge IGCSE E2L Coursebook 2, Unit 19: Competition entry to win a techno-jacket 1

Hi,

I am Michelle and I am entering the competition to win the techno jacket. I am interested in the things that other people don't have and also expensive to buy.

The new techno-jacket sounds unique and fashionable, isn't it? I would love to own this special jacket and take good care of it as if it is a friend.

I am sure this jacket would mean a lot to me and I would have the benefits of using for the rest of my life. I hope you would give me the priveledge to experience the new techno-jacket.

Thank you,
Michelle
_________________________________________________________________________________


Hello,
I am writing to tell you my reasons why I should win the jacket and how it would be useful for me.

Why do I want to win it? Because it's a really amazing and fashionable item. I love the fact that technology is mixed with a normal jacket. I know that people will be really amazed and I will feel proud of my jacket. I also want it because having a phone in my jacket makes things easier, so I don't have to worry all the time about where my phone is.

How will I use the technology on it? I will use it when I walk on the street alone because while the jacket is keeping me warm, I can listen to music and if my mum calls me, I don't have to worry because the music will stop playing when the phone rings.

I strongly believe that I need to win the techno-jacket, because I would let people know how amazing it is, so they will also buy one.

Thank you,
Aisha

Because I wished for this jacket for a long time. It will be very useful to me because I want to show my friends and I will be proud of my jacket. 
Maybe you are wondering how I will use the technology in the jacket. This jacket will make my life easier because I will be able to receive phone calls and messages while listening to music.

Thank you,
Giorgiana

Hi,
The techno-jacket will be the highest selling item because it will be very fashionable and everyone will want to buy it. I am the trendiest boy in my little town, so I think I should get the prize. I love to wear new things.
With this jacket I can inset my mobile phones or MP3 into the jacket. It also has a head-phone, so I can listen to music.

If I win it I will use and look after it very well.

Thank you,

Global Warming and Ozone Layer by Brindha

Today I learned about Global Warming. Global Warming happens when the global temperature increases. It causes increase in the sea water. The Ozone Layer protects the Earth from dangerous ultra-violet radiation of the sun. However, it is destroyed If countries don't stop polluting, after 100 years all the ice in the North Pole will melt. The Climate Change is due to human activities. China and America are the world's two biggest emitters of carbon dioxide.

http://www.guardian.co.uk/environment/datablog/2012/jun/21/world-carbon-emissions-league-table-country

The North Pole is melting for the first time in 55 million years. The meltdown could also counteract the gulf stream.

Global Warming and Ozone Layer by Giorgina

Global Warming causes increase in the temperature, melt in polar ice and Green House Effect. It also causes increase in water levels. The Ozone Layer protects us from the sun  and made of oxygen but it is now broken by carbon dioxide emissions.   

How can we stop Global Warming? Does Global Warming affect animals? What will happen if there is no ozone layer left? Is Global Warming going to effect us? How do Green House gasses affect us?


The North Pole is melting for the first time in 55 million years. Green House emissions must be reduced. Greenland icecap has not only started to melt but also will disappear unless Global Warming can be halted.
