Is it, as some people would suggest, a mysterious force? Or can it be explained and possibly even created? Well, even in this scientific and reason-driven age, love seems still to defy total understanding. We can, however, know something about love and make stronger connections between individuals. One thing that seems to affect love is distance. The common idea is that the love between people grows as they are separated. Sometimes it is true that longing for someone who has gone overseas becomes more intense. Something that nourishes love is danger. Send both lovers to dangerous places and they will end up loving each other more. This could be caused by the worry it develops. It could also be that feelings of uncertainty or need transform into love with time. Love gives us warmth, courage, and a feeling of being safe, but it also demands selfless devotion and sacrifice.

The fact that they labeled me as a girl was very embarrassing . I had a tendency to compensate for my name by acting more like a boy than I might have otherwise.

Life isnt simply about consumption and having a good time when youre not at work. Money will only cause you grief unless you use it for the welfare of the world. Thats why I believe that a good education is indispensable. A formal education with emphasis on history, literature, and culture helps a person learn how to distinguish right from wrong. Education that only teaches skills specific to a job can only render skills for performing a task. It doesnt teach you how to make important decisions. Employers tend to demand more from their employees than the ability to perform a task. Our world needs workers who pay constant attention to high standards for their performance. It is evident that far too many people today are focusing on making money and not on improving themselves. What puzzles me is why people should ignore contributions to the good of humanity while making money. It is only rational a person who gives to the world enjoys the benefits. After all, our civilization simply cant be built on the principle of making money alone. In summary, we must educate our young people to understand and love the world around them. This is the only way to ensure a better tomorrow. Unit 9Nobody has ever had to tell me to get out of bed. My number one asset has always been that I am much more ambitious than most. The way I see it, life is too short to make periodical concessions to comfort and fun. If you want to accomplish something remarkable, youve got to stay motivated and constantly work toward your goals. My goal has been to become a(n) journalist since I was a young boy. When I was eight, my father said, That field of work is too competitive for you. You should be more realistic about your prospects and abilities. I didnt want to deceive myself about how hard it would be, so I started that day by getting a job delivering newspapers. I departed from home every morning at 4:30 to do my work before school. I was fascinated with the printing machines so I always arrived to work early to ask questions. I wasnt much of a scholar, so I eventually ended up enrolling in an average university. Still, I was keen on becoming a reporter and did not give up my dream. I wrote for the school newspaper and when I graduated, took a job sorting mail with a local media company. I later convinced them to give me a chance to write some simple articles. Thats how I got my start. Unit 10Are we fated to repeat the past because our memories are too short? Wasnt World War II supposed to provide a(n) resolution that would end all wars? Why are we still fighting? As people around the world endure the agonies of war, is it possible to even hope for a brighter tomorrow? A recent study revealed that the quantity of wars in the world is actually decreasing. I hardly believe this means we deserve historic praise for greater understanding of our fellow men. While the number of traditional wars may
