Council proposal
The proposals
The local council is planning to develop a piece of land in our neighbourhood. There is one way they might develop the land. The proposal is is to build a hotel. There are advantages and disadvantages.
The advantages of a new hotel
More tourists will be in our area and that means that the local shop owners will have more money. Secondly, a new hotel is important to the area and it will add beauty and fame to the neighbourhood. Finally, there will be less unemployment, because the owner is going to hire a lot of employees.
The disadvantages of a new hotel
First of all, there will be more cars, so there will be more air pollution and traffic fumes. Furthermore, the traffic is another problem, because there will not be any parking spaces. Moreover, the increased noise will annoy the local residents, who may not be able to sleep comfortably or work quietly. Therefore, life in the neighbourhood will change.
Recommendations and suggestions
In my opinion, I would like a new hotel to be built, because this place will improve very much. As for the increased noise, the residents will get used to it in the future. If I were in the their position, I would write a a report to the mayor and tell him their suggestions. Another solution is the residents to sign a petition and send the results to the council. Last but not least, they can have a meeting and make a decision.

The Description of a friend
My best friends are two , but today I'm going to tell you about one of them. His name is agent 007 and I've known him for ten years ,since 2003.
He's very good-looking ,but he's not tall.He's not fat or thin.He's slim, like me.007 is fit and well-built as all the students of the class. His clothes are casual, but fashionable.They're colourful, too. His face has two beautiful ,round and black eyes and his hair is short ,straight and black ,too. When he gets embarrassed ,he has red cheeks.
My friend, 007, is very tolerant because he has never problem with people of different nationalities and he's also very polite and kind with other people because he always says "please" and " thank you".007 is very responsible with the school projects.
Once, my dad ,Alex, 007 and I were playing football and suddenly , the ball hit my hand forcefully and I fell down yelling in pain. 007 came to help me with everything he could and that's one of the important reasons that he's one of my best friends, because one friend who stands by you in pressure is one hundred times more valuable than friends who stand by you in pleasure.

Stories of Courage
This is Mathew's true story of courage that I call "River to Freedom".One day Mathew was walking by a river in Egypt.That river was the famous Nile. Suddenly, he stumbled on and fell in the cruel river. He tried to swim to save his life but it was impossible.Then, he saw the two ,dark and yellow eyes of a crocodile.The crocodile was running incredibly fast towards him,but when it was about a step away from him it turned and walked away.
That wasn't Mathew's first lucky escape.Some years ago,in the World War 1,he was into prison because of the German domination.Every day German soldiers hit Egyptians.One day they took them out of prison next to a river.His hope for freedom was getting bigger,so he asked a soldier about the river.The German soldier answered him that the river had electricity lines in it.His hope had been broken.To the Egyptians' luck,the bell rang for lunch ,so they made a line and started walking to take their tasteless food? When the most people had gone he ran towards the river and jumped.He luckily swam under the electricity lines till he reached the other side of the river.
Finally,his body was saved but weak.He remembered that he had some friends at the Port. He walked 30 kilometers in a day and fortunately arrived at the Port alive.His friends gave him a fast boat and he went to his dad's home,so the old father was there waiting for him.If we have difficult times in our lives, we should remember Mathew's courage and bravely fight against them.
