Exercise #7
Transportation by
bicycle vs transportation by car
Transportation by bicycle has many advantages such as the
preservation of the environment, the health and fitness.
Environmental side is a reducing the use of gasoline because
the nitrogen oxide and carbon dioxide result from the combustion of gasoline
and are a leading cause of global warming, Which causes high water temperature
and the speed of the melting of snow at the poles oceans and the high
temperature of the earth and the occurrence of floods, droughts and heat waves,
so a significant impact on the ozone. Also people must educate about the
reduction of unnecessary uses of gasoline causing damage to the environment.
The health and fitness there are many foods contain high
calories difficult to burn that because the most people few of movement and
ease of transportation therefore the spread of disease like diabetes and
overweight rapidly in the globe but using by bicycle help to burn it quickly
and maintains the health and fitness.
In the end, the streets in the UAE help to the movement by bicycle to
the workplace, sports exercises and race bicycle. There are many uses in
Europe, America and Asia uses for the by bicycle for transportation. Moreover,
the bicycle is the highest sales in holiday everywhere in the UAE.

Exercise #6
ARGUMENT 1
The following are the basic factors of an
argument:
· A
position or a point of view
· An attempt
to persuade others to accept that point of view
·
Reasons given to support that point of view.
· Conclusion
Read the following passage and identify
the following:
Main
argument:
The risks that may be caused if you kept a
cat in the house
for pregnant women ,newborns and weak the
immune.
Reasons
that support the argument:
The consequences if a woman became
infected pregnant, the fetus can become infected as a result of parasites and
suffer from a serious congenital damage.
Conclusion:
It is important that pregnant women and
those with a poor immune systems become aware of the potential risks posed by
cat. Many of us keep cats as house pets without realizing the dangers they may
be harboring. Cats are hosts to infectious protozoa that cause disease in
mammals such as humans. Adult humans rarely showed signs of significant disease
if they become infected. However, if pregnant women become infected, the foetus
can become infected by parasites and suffer serious congenital damage. In the
worst cases, infants may lose their eyesight and acquire motor deficits. In
people with poor immune systems or AIDS protozoa can cause seizure and death.
The symptoms of the disease are not evident in cats so there is no way of
knowing if a particular cat is at risk.
