Causes of obesity in the UAE

                Nowadays, most of the people in the UAE especially the young ones have a good body shape and also good health, but some people have a serious problem which is called obesity. In this essay I will outline some of the causes and suggest some viable solutions.

                Starting with the causes, the first cause is diet. When people go to eat they find too much food offered at every meal and some people cannot resist the smell of good food. Another negative cause is the lifestyle. Nowadays, every mall have lots of places to order fast food so people when they finish from work or school they go eat outside rather than going home. The final cause is in education. For example, some people have a lack of knowledge about good eating habits, because of that they gain too much weight and they don’t know better.

                Fortunately, there are solutions for these dangerous causes. One answer is to do some exercise. For example, people can eat everywhere they want, but they must do exercises to burn the calories they got from eating food. The next solution is to schedule your time, instead of watching TV or playing computers all day, watch TV for one hour and do exercise for another hour and half. The last solution is educating the people; some people don’t know the risks of eating fast food so we need to educate them to avoid obesity.

                In conclusion, obesity is a very serious problem that we need to be careful about it because it ruins the young people’s life and they cannot enjoy their youth. But, by avoiding this problem they will have a good healthy life.

TV problems

                Nowadays, TV has become very popular especially for children but this technology also has become very dangerous. This essay will describe some problems about children watching TV too much and will suggest some solutions to these problems.

There are several problems about children watching TV too much. The first problem is that children have eye problems and gain more weight. For example, for children to watch TV all the day is like a dream for them and because of that they might gain weight or their eye sight will decrease. Another negative point is they don’t do homework. Sometimes if the child spends all his time watching TV and doesn’t do their homework it can affect his grades. Yet another problem is communication to others. For example, children spending time on TV they might gain bad habits and also they can’t communicate to other people and they will have autism.

            Although these problems are very serious, yet there are some important solutions that can fix these problems. The first solution is making a time table for the children. For example, children are like soldiers by giving them an order they will do what you need for you. Another solution is to meet new friends. If children meet others they may be friends and they will play together and they don’t have to watch TV. Yet another reasonable solution is let them join some clubs. For example, by joining swimming club or karate club children will know lots of things and make new friends instead of watching TV all the day.

            In conclusion, this problem is very serious but there is no problem without a solution. So by doing this solution your children will be very healthy and they will enjoy life before it’s too late.

Reasons for Choosing a University

      

          The chart shows 11 reasons why first year students from overseas chose a particular university. The survey of 1,000 first year overseas students was carried out at universities in the UK. The top three reasons are language of tuition, quality of teacher, and up –to –date teaching facilities.

According to the graph, the main reason is the language of tuition. At 95 percent of the sample, it was the main reason most student gave for choosing a university. The second biggest factor was quality of teachers, at 90%, followed by facilities, also 90%.

The cost of accommodation is also an important factor for 80% of respondents. Almost two –thirds of the students said that the friendliness of the university was important.

In conclusion the various factor can be divided onto two groups, namely those related to teaching and non teaching related. However, the most important are the language and the teachers.

Water use in Gulf countries 2000

In four of the six countries, water for agriculture was the most important use. In Qatar, Oman, the UAE and Saudi Arabia more than 2 times the amount of water was used for agriculture compared to domestic use which was the second most important use. In the other two countries, Bahrain and Kuwait, domestic use was the most important use and agriculture was the second most important use.

Accident in the Desert

Last week I went to Liwa with my friends to go on camping trip, when we arrived there we saw a weird accident involving two cars and some camels in the middle of the desert.

When my classes finished I went to home and took a shower and when I finished my telephone rang, it was my friend asking me to join them and I said it a good idea. We arrived at Liwa and we went to buy tent, food supplies, wood and camping tool and took the road to the middle of the desert. While we was driving we saw two cars ran into a hired of camels, it was weird to have an accident in the middle of the desert. There wasn’t any damages to the people who were driving the car but the problem is that one of the camels died and the other one broke its legs, I felt very sad for the camels, one of my friends talked to the drivers and one of them said that he wasn’t concentrate on the road and the other ne was following him without making space between him and the other driver so he turned to avoid hitting the other driver and because of that he hit one of the camels.

In the end, we had our camping and I learn from this accident that I should be very concentrate while I am driving my car because it might be a person instead of an animal.   

The Petrol Process

 Petrol is very important in our life because we use it to get our cars to move and also we use it in factories. This essay will describe the steps how oil is refined.

First, the oil is located by survey teams and pumped via pipeline. Second, the oil is stored in storage tanks and it is refined into various products, including petrol by professional scientist. Next, petrol is stored in tanks and petrol is transported to petrol stations by trucks. After that, the petrol is stored in underground tanks. Finally, petrol is pumped into cars to be used.

In conclusion, the petrol is a good revenue source that made the United Arab Emirates a developed country. These steps in the petrol process are very dangerous and need a lot of care and experience skills to do.
