Comparisons
Model answer
Compare and contrast the overall play of Brazil’s national football team with that of the UAE. Say which of these teams you would rather watch and give reasons.
Most countries in the world have a football team, and Brazil and the UAE are no exceptions. I will describe the similarities and differences between the two teams, and say which one I would prefer to watch.
Like Brazil, the UAE is a member of FIFA which is an international body for regulating football. This means that both teams have eleven players, and substitutes are allowed. Both teams play to a system that has been agreed with the coaches beforehand. Brazil and the UAE defend when necessary but prefer to attack.
However, there are many differences in the style of play. Brazil plays at a higher level than the UAE and has won the World Cup. The former are fitter and faster than the latter and can adopt their style of play easily. This is because the Brazilian players have experience with teams all over the world while the UAE players usually play for local teams.
World rankings prove that Brazil is easily the better team. Despite this, I would prefer to watch the UAE. There are several reasons for this but the most important one is that the UAE has a huge potential. They are an emerging nation in football, and it is interesting to see new talent. Also, this country has many skilful players who will improve with experience.

My Vacation time
A vacation is a time of relaxation. I really enjoy vacations because I don’t think about school or any other problems. When I went on the cruise it was the most fun I have ever had on vacation. In the following paragraphs I’ll tell why it was my most memorable vacation.
My family and I went on a cruise and it turned out to be the most memorable vacation. I did things I have never done before. I was very exciting. It was a cool Sunday morning when we arrived at the Port of Galveston. When I saw the cruise ship, I stood in awe admiring its beauty. The ship was going to leave at 4:00 p.m., but we got there early to unpack and become familiar with the ship. We set sail for Cancun on schedule. My brother was on the ship running around and getting into trouble. In Cancun we went shopping and bargaining (to try get lower price on souvenirs). All those experiences made the trip memorable. The most memorable part of trip was the island of Couzamel. My brother and I went snorkeling with sting rays. After about 15 minutes I enjoyed the presence of the sting rays. I got the opportunity to pick up a sting ray with my hand. Snorkeling was a very exciting experience. You would think sting rays were vicious and try to sting you but, they are real gentle.
Seeing how much fun my brother and my dad, the beautiful water and most of all the sting rays was the best time I had ever had.

How to organize your portfolio
Papers, papers, papers. Students often feel overwhelmed by the number of papers they receive from their teachers and it may seem that throwing them in the boot of their car is the best solution. However, it is actually quite easy to organize your class notes into a neat portfolio. Let me outline the steps.
First, find all your papers. You can look for missing papers on the HD1 website. You can also ask a friend and photocopy his papers. Second, sort your papers into logical division’s e.g. reading, writing, and listening. Next, put your papers into the different sections. After that, buy a binder and some colored dividers. Write section headings for the dividers and match them with a table of contents page. Finally, make a label for the side of the binder. Include important information e.g. class code, name etc.
As we have seen it is easy to make a portfolio. You will be proud of your neat, well-organized work.
