Examinations are an unfair way of assessment (Argument 2)





Examinations are an unfair way of assessment and there are some positive and negative aspects. This essay will look at whether examinations are an unfair way of assessment and will discuss both sides of the argument.

First, let us look at why examinations are sometimes necessary. Many students believe that unfair assessments and should not be used at HCT. They cause nervousness and testing doesn’t fulfill the purpose as students get lower grades because they fell unwell. If the student sat alone in the home they understand and when we go to HCT examinations they forget everything. The Second argument, students should be graded on their classroom assignments. These are a way for students to get a high mark if they do a good work their assignments in their classroom. Also some exams are poorly written and are culturally biased against non-western students. For example, some exams written by western teachers for a western audience are biased and non- westerners will store lower due to this bias.

Now let us look for students who want an assessment at the HCT. First, testing is fair because all students take the same test, and are assessed equally. For example, for the teacher it is easy for checking and for students to study together. Another negative it is a good way to determine what students have learned in the cause. For example, when the students do exams they will encourage students to work harder.

There are arguments for statement and against the statesmen. However, in my opinion the suppurating argument that the assessment should not be used at HCT are more than the other arguments.

#5 Mobile phones - argument






Mobile phones are important in this world. There are some people who drive dangerously. In this essay, I will write about making mobile phones illegal while driving and discussing both sides of the argument.

First, we will look at why using mobile phones and driving dangerously should be illegal. When you drive and you have an important call you can stop and complete your call on the side of the road, but you still can talk from your car. There are now a lot of people using Black Berry who they drive that is big a problem and dangerous for himself and people. If you have an important call, and you don’t have your headphone, you can put your phone on speaker and complete your driving, but be safe.

Now let us look at people who drive and why they shouldn’t use mobile phones. First, if illegal then police can stop people on the road. If there is a law then police are able to enforce it and give people tickets to not do it another time. The accident percentage will go down. If people aren’t using their mobiles, then they will concentrate on their driving. The traffic fines will help pay for traffic safety programs and if the people go to see this programs the percentage for accident will go down.

There are arguments for and against using mobile for in your car. In my opinion if you want to use mobile phone we should have headphone to be safe when you drive.

UAE marriage fund

           

           In the UAE there are marriage funds to help young peoples to start life. Many residents know the government helps people today. This is a complex problem with many serious causes and effects.
              There are many reasons for the popularity of the UAE marriage fund today. One of the main reasons is that marriage is expensive. Many people, men and women, in the UAE if they need to marry they need more money and the men they don’t have more money. Another, cause is the men will take a loan to be married. The men will have big problem if they can’t give back money because he has a women to take his money and children to take his money. A third reason is to marry a non Emirati. There is same men they don’t have too much money to give Emirati women because they want more money to marry. So the men need to marry with non Emirati women because it is cheap.
                However, this change in the UAE marriage fund can have some serious effects. One effect is to provide money. In the UAE now there is a marriage fund to help men to marry and not go get a loan to have money and that helps him in life. Another result is an increased number Emirati women marry. The UAE will increase Emirati women marrying because the UAE marry fund helps them to be married and give them money to start life. A final effect is more UAE women are getting married. Overall more women in the UAE will marry because the men they have money and that is good for Emirati people to not have spinsters.
                   In conclusion, the UAE marriage funds they help young people to marry Emirati women and not marry with non Emirati women. People should learn one thing in this life, if you want your daughter not to be a spinster, don’t regent too much money to marry.
