hi jason please check my response to my writing topic.

What are the important qualities of a good son or daughter? Have these qualities changed or remained the same over time in your culture? Use specific reasons and examples to support your answer.

There are certain things that never change. The qualities of a good son or daughter are same no matter which country you take into consideration. In my opinion, to be a good son or daughter, you should be respectful, affectionate and considerate to your parents.

The first and foremost thing is,to be respectful to your parents. One of the basic lessons that parents give to their children is to respect the elders. To be a good child you should not talk to your parents loudly. Do not argue with them, even if they are wrong, just be quite. Sometimes they taunt you or yell on you for something.Some disobedient children show some disrespect in this case towards their parents , but a good son or daughter should be quite and listen to them. Whatever they say is for the betterment of their child.

Second, every parent wish to see their children successful in their lives. So it is our duty to be carrier focussed and achieve a good position in society to make them proud. Our parents face a lot of hardships in their lives to give better food, clothes as well as education to their children. They sacrifice their happiness to get the happiness of their children. It is observed that some youngsters waste a lot of money of their parents in useless things and astray from the right path. Whereas good children value the sacrifices of their parents, work hard in life and become successful persons. This is what makes parents happy and they feel proud when other people admire their children.

Last but not least, when your parents get older they need your attention. Someone has rightly said “Childhood comes in one’s life twice, first time when one is a child and second time when one gets old”. Parents in old age need more love and affection than before. They do not need money of their children, what they need is their attention.Some children and adults consider their parents old fashioned and do not like to spend time with them which is not good. To be a good son/daughter, he/she must give some time to his/her parents. They must remember one day they will reach the same age and they may be neglected in the same way by their children.

All in all, parents are a precious gift of God. The children are a reflection of their parents to some extent, so to be a good son or daughter, you should be respectful, loving and caring towards your parents. Be a successful person in life and make your parents feel proud.

Hello everybody there…

hi jason please check my response to my writing topic.

Many have learned foreign language in their home country and other have learned in country it is spoken, which one is better, give advantages of that, support you answer.

Learning foreign language in the country it is spoken carries more advantages than, learning that language in your own country. But prerequisite for this case one should has preliminary knowledge about that language then only one will learn foreign language in better way. I have explained as follows.

First of all, learning foreign language is important in country it is spoken, because I think learning strategies is different than learning that language in your country. Obviously, teacher would play more important role in students life, so here also, teacher will play important role. I think they will teach ones every time with new ideas. But, in the language they are teaching one should understand that language first. According to me, if one should have preliminary knowledge about that language then one will definitely understand the that language at higher level, in country it is spoken. For example, one wants to learn German language, he already completed his preliminary courses in that language then I don’t think so one will have to face more problems, if one learns German in Germany.

Secondly, I feel that, learning foreign language is important in country it is spoken, because, one will spend daily routine in that language, even though one may have to face certain problems. So, this will definitely improve his language skills. I think, one will get exposed to new words, proverbs and also to different idioms which I don’t think so, one will learn in their home country. One will also get opportunity, to interact to all new people, and to interact with them in that language. After living in that environment, I feel that one will definitely improve language skills.

Thirdly, I feel living in new country, for learning language and same language spoken in that country, it is great opportunity. I don’t think so; one has to face lot of problems while learning that particular language. Daily interaction definitely boost up ones language learning ability. But I must say one should have at least some knowledge about that language.

Learning foreign language in country where it is spoken, it carries more advantages over learning language in your country; hence I would like to support learning language in foreign country where it is spoken.

Keep it small and simple…

Thanks…
