What can they do: stay uneducated or start learning something new for them? Here are some advantages and disadvantages of late education.      First of all, late education has a lot of pros.

Today I would like to write a reflection note about things that I did this semester at your classes. The first useful thing is that I created my own account on Blogger.com and now I’m able not only to publish my comments or essays, but also see writings of my group mates and leave my comments under their posts. I find it very convenient to use this website because we receive our homework here and we can do our tasks not only during our class, but also at home.Another useful thing is “The Citation Machine”  and "Bitly.com"which help me to shorten my links and use them in my essays. I think that I will use “The Citation Machine” in future when I will write  my  essays on this website.

For example, there were some situations when I finally wrote my comment under your post and when I pressed a button “publish”, and then my comment was canceled and I had to writ...

language is one of the important sources of self-identification and a symbol of national identity. However, only one spoken worldwide language is able to change everything. First of all, if there was only one spoken worldwide language , people from all over the world would overcome the language barrier. People from different countries would understand each other and have a conversation without any difficulties whenever they would go.

https://www.theguardian.com/society/2018/nov/22/i-felt-so-worthless-two-teenagers-on-their-mental-health-struggles I have read an article  'I felt so worthless': two teenagers on their mental health struggles. 1. An issue is devoted to suicidal thoughts of 2 teenagers because of their appearance, worthless state and stress. 2. I’m concerned about this issue because many teenagers don’t have trustworthy people with whom they can share their problems and feelings. 3.   3 things in an article that made me think about: 1. When I saw the pictures of these beautiful teenagers , I could not believe that they could have any problems and even suicidal thoughts. Just how people who are not disabled, who have a family, who have beautiful appearance can even think about death? 2. Lack of motivations and aims in their lives. 3.Why practically all classmates were apathetic to their problems and state? 4.   After reading this interesting article, I have some qu...
