Response #1 English language
English is an international language and everybody want to learn this language which is used officially all around the world. I had English language classes in my primary, secondary and high school years. I also took some private English learning courses throughout summers in my country, Saudi Arabia. However, I could not improve my English effectively in my country because everybody talk Arabic. I strongly agree that English will be learned most efficiently in the English-speaking country not in the home country because of some cases. Therefore, I came here to, USA, to learn English better after graduation from my university.
Actually, English is dealing with all the time while staying in an English-speaking country. For instance, I have read newspapers and books, listened to the news, and watched movies, series, and commercials that are all in English. I came here for the education; therefore I particularly make connections with my instructors and classmates. I can learn spoken English while I listen to them. Also, I speak English to make them understand me. I can develop not only my listening and speaking, but also my writing skills in order to give my homework in English to the teachers. All those experiences above will definitely enhance my English in an intensive way which I have never be facing in my own country.
To sum up, learning a second language is a certain way to enhance your work and ability satisfactorily. Moreover, understanding foreign cultures and the way of thinking will enable non-native speakers to be successful in life.

I like to talk about this topic. It was interesting to me.
The career that I had in mind when I first began college was one in counseling
psychology. Luckily, this career was one matched closely to my interests and personality
type.
A person in counseling psychology will typically use personality
tests/assessments, interviews, case histories, and observation methods to evaluate a
patients problems, needs, and goals. Counseling psychologists will evaluate data and,
from there, create an action plan or treatment plan to counsel the patient with. The goal in
this career is to help each patient work toward developing and adjusting social,
educational, personal, and vocational skills.
I’ve always had an interest in listening to people and their “problems”. Even in my early
teenage years, and now into my adult years, people of all ages have come to me for emotional
support, advice, and confidentiality.
I see this career as having many advantages and few disadvantages.
From a personal standpoint, the biggest disadvantage or problem I foresee is becoming too
wrapped up in a patient’s problems.
The biggest advantage would be being in a career that I find personally
rewarding and fulfilling.
Thank you ...

Hi every one....
I agree with the author.
First of all, I love to travel any where.I believe it’s very important to see the world and different cultures. It lets us open our minds to new things and we get to experience life in exiting different ways.Traveling gives us the opportunity to disconnect from our regular life. You get to forget your problems/issues for a few weeks, it can also help you figure things out that you would not have understood without the distance traveling can give you.
Another great benefit is the relaxation you get to do. It’s nice to live life to its fullest and enjoy a stress free time with yourself. It’s a very good stress remover that has a lot more to give than most people are willing to accept.
Moreover, traveling increases our knowledge and give us more information about anythings. To view new customs, different ways of living is fantastic for the mind. It gives us a new perspective about life and especially our life, it can help us change some of our habits or even create new ones. When I travel I usually make it a point to try new food, some cultures don’t have fries in their diet and they are all skinny, others use spices to give taste and not oils or fats. Discovering different values and ways to get by in life is really interesting.
Thank you...
