Making instant coffee

   Coffee is a very popular drink around the world. People drink it at all times of the day. There is several kind of coffee, but I am now going to describe how instant coffee is produced.

The coffee beans are picked and then they are dried. After that, the beans are roasted and the beans are cooled rapidly. Next, the beans are ground and they are mixed with hot water. Then, the mixture is strained and frozen. After that, the frozen liquid is ground and the frozen liquid is dried in a vacuum. Finally, the beans are packed into jars.

Instant coffee is not quite as good as real coffee, but it is very popular and saves a lot of time. The manufacturers have done most of the steps for us! 

Ghosts

One night in my friend’s house in Al Nahadah in Abu Dhabi, my cousins, friends and I went to his house after he invited us. We stayed there till 3 o’clock in the morning and it was too late to return to Liwa so he said it’s ok to sleep in his meeting room.
   My cousins, friends and I were sleeping when we heard someone running above the roof. I was very dizzy and shouted to my friends; please stop running I want to sleep and then they woke me up and said there is someone running above us. I said it might be a cat. After we fell asleep again, we started to hear the door opening and closing. I woke up and said to my friends that we should leave now; I thought the house was full of ghosts, some of my friends slept and others were still awake till morning and I was one of them.
   When the morning came, my friends and I ask a question to who invited us and said, is your house hunted with ghosts? He laughed at us and said no. From that day my friends and I didn’t tell anyone about it and my friend who invited us he made a joke of it. I can still remember what it was; it was a very frightening night.

on-line courses and traditional courses

Education in the past was really hard and very difficult, but nowadays education had become very easy and you can do it in your own house. In this essay I am going to write about the similarities and differences between education courses on-line and the traditional face to face courses.

There are some important similarities between them. The first similarity is both of them have the same goal. For example, both of them have the same materials for the course to study for graduate. Another similarity is that in both of them we must send and receive our homework. Yet another similarity is that we can share information between the students. For example, in doing homework or group work you need to share the answer between other students.

Although, there are some similarities between on-line courses and the traditional courses, there are also three major differences. The first difference is saving time. For example, in on-line courses we can save a lot of time instead of the wasting time in the traditional courses. Another difference is asking question. In the on-line courses you don’t have a teacher to answer your question but the other course there will be a teacher and he will answer your entire question. Yet another difference is the class environment. For example on-line course doesn’t have a class environment you only will do it at home instead the traditional course will have a class environment and you classmate will help you in your course.

Overall, the differences outweigh the similarities. However, I prefer the traditional course instead of the on-line because you will need someone to teach you instead of learning by yourself.

I Phone and BlackBerry Bold


 Every year phone companies develop new phones. The first phones were very big like a suitcase and only used for calling people. But thanks to technology they made the size of the phone like the size of a small notebook, but with a lot of different uses. In this essay, I am going to write about the similarities and differences between the I Phone and BlackBerry Bold.

There are some important similarities between the I Phone and Black Berry Bold. The first similarity is that both I Phone and Bold have the same style. For example, both of them have the same color which is black with a chrome frame. Another similarity is that they have the same 3.5 mm headphone hatch. Yet another similarity is we can use them to buy anything we want by using the internet.

Although there are some similarities between I Phone and BlackBerry Bold, there are also three major differences. The first difference is the screen. For example, the I Phone screen is touch but BlackBerry Bold is not. Another difference is the web browser. The I Phone web browser is more advanced than the web browser in a BlackBerry Bold. Yet another difference is the calculator. For example, I Phone calculator is very annoying because you might touch the wrong number instead the Black Berry Bold has buttons and you will never have wrong results.

Overall, the differences outweigh the similarities. However, I prefer the I Phone instead of BlackBerry Bold because it has more features than a BlackBerry Bold and is very easy to use.

football and basketball


Sports have been played all over the world for hundreds, maybe thousands of years. There are many different kinds. Some of them are very popular and most provide many benefits to anyone who plays them. Some of them are played individually, whereas others are played in a team’s against another team. I am going to write about the similarities and differences between two sports; basketball and football.

   Firstly, there are some important similarities between basketball and football.  Firstly, they are both team sports. A basketball team consists of five players, while a football team is made up of eleven players. In both of these sports, players can be replaced by substitutes when they are injured or tired. Another similarity between them is that they both use a ball, although these are not exactly the same. A football is round, light, quite hard, and made of either leather of synthetic material. It is usually black and white .In contrast, a basketball is generally not as light and it is made of hard rubber. It is us usually a reddish-brown color.

Finally, although there are some similarities, there are also some important differences. One difference is the part of the body used to control the ball. In contracts, basketball players can only use their hand to control the ball, which they dribble, pass and shoot. In football, the feet are used to dribble, kick  and trap the ball. Also, people sometimes use their heads to head the ball .Another obvious difference is the places that these sports are played. Football is generally played outdoors on grass pitches, whereas basketball is usually played indoors on a wooden surface, although quite a lot of people also play outdoors on concrete basketball courts.

To sum up, all in all, most sports, especially team sports like basketball and football, give players a chance to develop themselves physically. They can also learn self-discipline  and teamwork at the same time. That is probably the reason basketball and football are so popular all around the world.
