                                 The UAE needs more businessmen and businesswomen. No one can deny that there is a huge and massive development in many countries all over the world. There is a need for development to be not only continuous but also bigger and better. This demands a lot of money and investment to do that.
            The UAE is one of these countries that have witnessed a huge and massive improvement in a lot of fields. The UAE needs more businessmen and businesswomen for the sake of achieving this improvement and making it bigger and better. The UAE need these businessmen and businesswomen to provide money for building more and more projects in many different fields all over the country.
            There are a lot of fields in the UAE which are advanced and developed but there are many fields that need more money and investment. Businessmen and businesswomen are people who can provide these investments. The UAE needs businessmen and businesswomen in the field of agriculture. This is because the UAE imports most of its food and food products from other countries. Importing these products consumes a lot of money and these food products may lose a lot of their useful elements during the process of import.
            The UAE needs a lot of projects to reclaim land for farming and agriculture.  Businessmen and businesswomen can make different projects in the field of farming and food products. They can spend money to reclaim land and use tunnels in agriculture; these tunnels have a lot of benefits. They save water as there is little water in the UAE. They can give more products than usual. They can also produce summer kinds in the winter. Businessmen and businesswomen can invest their money in organic farming which depends on natural elements. Organic farming gives us good kinds of products that are useful for our health as they do not use any harmful chemicals in these products of farming. We can call it clean and healthy farming. They will get a lot of money as they do not need to use many care to these products for countries like Jordan and India. This will save money for them.
            Another important field which businessmen and businesswomen can invest their money in is property. They can build a lot of buildings and towers. They can also build more hotels and cities all over the country. There are a lot of people who work in the UAE and want a lot of houses to live in. There are a lot of people in cities like Abu Dhabi and Dubai. The population increases every year and this demands more houses for them. The UAE needs businessmen and businesswomen to build more properties and towers outside crowded cities. Also, there is a need to build more hotels as there is a huge increase in the number of tourists who come every year from all over the world to enjoy some touristic places in the country as there are a lot of things that attract tourists such as beaches, shopping, centers, festivals and old historical places all over the country.
            The third field which needs more businessmen and businesswomen in the UAE is the field of energy. All of us know that UAE is one of the most important countries which produce a massive and huge amount of oil all over the world. But using oil in some industries results in much pollution. There is a need for some projects that give us clean energy.
            In fact, oil will dry up in the future so we should look for other sources which can provide us with energy. Businessmen and businesswomen can invest their money in building projects to make use of the sun to get solar energy. Solar energy is clean and renewable. The UAE enjoys weather where there is sun all the year. We should use solar energy in factories and cars. There are some projects in Masdar city in Abu Dhabi to make use and produce solar energy but we need more and more projects. In addition to solar energy there is a need to get energy from wind as it is clean and natural kind. If we make best use of these kinds of energy, we won’t face problems when oil dries up in the future.
            The last field from my point of view which demands more and more businessmen and businesswomen in the UAE is building more and more factories all over the country. This project is very important. Now, our country depends on importing from abroad. Most of things we use, we import from abroad. This consumes a lot of money and a big part of our national income. We should produce most of our products which we need in factories inside our countries. We should build a lot of different factories to produce electrical appliances and cars. We should produce clothes and mobiles. Instead of buying these things from abroad, we can make these things here in our countries.
            At the end of my research. I can say that the UAE needs more businessmen and businesswomen in many fields. This will save money we spend to import products from abroad. This will lead to the progress and welfare of our country. Also, this will provide a lot of jobs for our citizens now and in the future. All of this will provide money for our country.
            Through all these fields that I wrote above, I can say that the UAE will be one of the leading countries all over the world in the future.

                       Nowadays, a lot of people like to travel and spend their holidays in other countries, so they need to change their money to other currencies, but it will be easier if we have a global currency and others dislike the idea. In this essay I will discuss the advantage and disadvantage about this topic.
         Firstly, let us start with the advantage. When traveling to other countries, money exchange wouldn’t be a problem so that we can buy staff without having any problem. Another advantage is that you can buy from the internet without being hustled. Another advantage will be that people will not have to travel and leave their families to work for foreign countries and that will end up to have a lot of job opportunities.
        Although there are some advantages, there are also some disadvantages. The first disadvantage is that the big countries will fight for the name and for the place of the main office. For example, America will say that they want the global currency to be the better and France will want it to be the euro so it will end up with a war. Another disadvantage is that all the world will be equal in living level and rich counties will be equal with poor countries. If all people are rich then there will be no inventions and the compares will be broke.
In my opinion the currency should not be one for the whole world because there will be no challenge.

The line graph shows the number of annual visits to Australian form 1975 to 2005 by overseas residents. The table presents the places that those visitors come from. In this essay I will describe the important information.
         The overall trend in the line graph is that the number of the visitors was increasing dramatically. For example, from 1975 to 2005 the number of visitors was increasing each 10 years by 8 million presents in 2005 while it was 8million persons in 1975.
        Turning to the table, Japan had the highest numbers of visitors to Australia from 1975 to 2005 and the number increased from 3.2 to 12 million visitors. The next country was South Korea where the number of visitors tripled from 2.9 to 9.1 million. Then came Europe, Britain and the U.S.A and number increased by almost four times more in 2005 than 1975. The lowest number of visitors was for Chine with 0.8 million visitors in 2005.
         To sum up, we can figure that both the line graph and the table are connected together because they both talk about visitors to Australia .

Many people think that a balanced diet, or eating balanced meals, is the main factor for a healthy life. However, other people think that it doesn't only depend on controlling our eating habit. In this essay I will discuss the arguments of both sides.
It's known in our life that a balanced diet is an effective way for a healthy life because it helps us to prevent diseases such as heart attacks and blood pressure. Also eating healthy food can make our mind clear and help us live a life without stress. Eating balanced food could also affect our bodies by not having strength and energy problems.
We can't ignore the fact that eating healthy food or a balanced diet is the main reason for a healthy life. However, there are some people who think that a healthy life doesn't only count on a balanced diet because they think that it needs some other factors also. The first thing is that to stay away from smoke and live a healthy environmental life. The second reason to have a healthy strong life is to do exercise because it will make our body strong which can handle any type of pressure. Another reason is that we need to drink a lot of water so that we don’t feel dizzy.
To sum up, diet is important in our life but we need to follow it up with daily exercise to have a perfect body which can stand the daily pressure and to live longer without disease.

Portfolio task 4
To raise your children with a good manners you need to encourage them to compete or to cooperate with each other, so that they can became independent and useful adults. Competition and cooperation are both important skills in children’s life because they can help to improve their knowledge and experience. Some people think that competition is more important than cooperation between children and some people are against that and say that cooperation is more important. In this essay I’m going to discuss both ideas.
First of all, the first reason that people think that competition is more important is that it can help them to search and look around for answers. The second reason is that it will help them to get high marks by competing with others. The third reason is that they can work alone without others help which can prepare them for the future.
 On the other hand, the reason that some people like the cooperation is that they think it help the children to improve their knowledge by sharing ideas with each other. If we group the children the percentage of failure will be decreased. The other reason is that when you make groups in a class it will end up with competition between groups.
In my opinion, children need both competition and cooperation with each other because they can help them to improve their skills and will prepare them for the future.

Portfolio task 2
Two bar chart are shown. The first bar chart shows the reasons for study according to the students’ age group. The second bar chart shows the amount of support they received from employers in the UK. In this report I’m going to discuss the important information.

Firstly, the overall trend in the first bar chart is that people of age 39 and below study to improve their knowledge at work. For students over 49 they study for interest.  For example 70% of them study for interest and 19% study for career. The exception is that people from 40 to 49, half of them study for interest and half of them study for career.
The second bar chart shows the employers support by age. The overall trend was that employers support the students under 26 by giving them the highest fees which reached around 63%. It also shows that people aged 30 to 39 had the lowest support from their employer.
All in all, the two bar charts show that students under the age from 26 have the highest numbers who study for career and they receive the highest fees from employers.

The table provides the amount of weekly sales from 7th to 13th of October at a small restaurant in an American business district. In this report I will summarize the important information.  
          The overall trend is that the income of dinners was higher than the lunches. For example the total income of dinners was $22,000. Looking at the table we can see that during the week Monday to Friday the income was stable from $2,300 to $2,600 at lunches and from $3,500 to $4,350 at dinners.
          On the other hand the weekends show that the income was very low due to the holidays and people like to join their families. We can see that on Saturday the income at lunch and dinner was the least according to the table. To clarify, the income was $1,950 and $2,900 respectively.
         To sum up, the overall trend is that the weekend income was less because of the holidays and on Sunday the restaurant was closed.
