Looting...

Looting is happening in New York right now, I believe that lootin can be bad if its for the wrong reasons. I the article, it says people are looting because they are getting back at the people who have been stealing their money. People shouldn't do that because the people their stealin from had to work for the thing that those people are stealing. In the article, it said that people were looting because they needed supplies and food to help their family get through and survive the storm. I think that is the right reason to loot. Looting is bad even if you are stealing for your family but in that situation I think I would be acceptable to loot.

Teenagers and them having jobs.....


In the modern society, it is very common to see teenagers working everywhere in the city. Whatever part time jobs they are doing, they are preparing for their future. School may be the best place for proper education but not for preparation for the outside working world. Indeed, teenagers learn a lot of things through the jobs they do when still being students.

To start with, teenagers learn how to arrange their time. For example, an employee needs to work at 7.00 in the early morning. This means, he has to present at the company by 7.00 no matter how late he stayed up last night. Moreover, as a student, he has to take use of his time and spend it properly on both studying and working. He avoids bad habits such as going out late at night and get up late in the morning
Another point is that teenagers will appreciate the value of money. They work hard and realize how difficult to make money. They also understand that “Money does not grow on trees”. Before buying an expensive clothes or shoes, they remember their parents’ hard work and think more carefully whether they should buy those or not.

But the most benefit to teenagers working is that they get some useful experiences which they cannot learn at school. For example, after leaving university, Bill Gates worked outsides and gained valuable experience on what does and doesn't work. From the time starting his career in a garage, he now becomes the most successful man with the modern development of computer technology.

Although teenagers have responsibility to concentrate on their academic studies, part-time jobs are also important for their future work. Personally, I think teenagers should be allowed to do some part-time jobs to adapt to the working environment and get lessons from real life.

   The infograph shows what the new world trade center will look and a few other facts about it.
   The new world trade center is basicly a memorial building that will lift the spirits of the new yorkers. That building will be a symbol of how we grow stronger and how we let nothing get us down.
