1- A persuasive essay
It is a type of essay that presents logical arguments with emotional appeal and non-
formal types of debate in order to sway readers to a particular point of view. It is
presented to the reader with a more relaxed tone (friendly and informal tone). It can be
both a form of academic writing and personal writing.

It can be called a comparative essay, a compare and contrast essay or a comparison

4- An argumentative essay is a piece of writing that takes a stance on an issue. It uses
formal language and depends on evidence and research as a form of argument. In a

support his point of view about a topic by stating his reasoning and providing evidence
to back it up.
The purpose of an argumentative essay is to organize and present your well-reasoned
conclusions in order to persuade the readers to accept or at least seriously consider
your point of view.

Choosing which university fits your interests and academic background is
an important decision that will greatly influence the success of your university study. In

making a shortlist of universities and narrowing down your choices into second and
first choice. This involves weighing some factors such as your motivation and
aspiration, your personality, your location, and your budget.

student. A scholarly type student usually has self-motivation to work hard in order to
ace exams and achieve high grades. This type of person will find comfort in a highly
academic environment offered by top world universities such as Oxford or Cambridge.
On the contrary, if you are not a type of person who can study for hours and getting

Read the following passage, then choose the correct answer from a, b, c or d:
People differ physically from the moment of conception, but it is only after birth
that an individual can be observed. Family traits and characteristics are noted by
adoring parents who think the baby looks like another family member or definitely
takes after the mother's side or, without a doubt, has his father's nose. Eye colour, skin
colour and the texture of our hair are all different and depend on our inherited genes.
A baby born with brown hair may in a few months’ time have fair hair as the birth
hair falls out and is replaced.
European people in general have paler skin than if your ancestors come from
Africa or Asia. Skin can change colour if exposed to sunlight. The rate at which we
develop and grow is variable. Boys and girls of the same age show big differences in
growth spurts especially when sexual maturity is reached. At the age of 12, girls are
25
much taller than boys of the same age, but at 16 years of age, boys shoot up and exceed
the girls in height and body strength.
The way the body develops is not just a result of physical changes, as our mental
processes have a large part to play in what we want to achieve. A desire to become a
skillful footballer, a long distance runner or a strong swimmer requires stamina and
years of practise to try and attain the top level.
The food we eat will, to a certain extent, determine how we grow and gives us strong
bones. So, we should give it a due care. A lack of activity and eating too much sweet
sugary food can result in people gaining excessive amounts of weight.
Choose the correct answer from a, b c or d:
23- What changes take place a few weeks after birth?
a) The baby's noise b) The skin colour
c) The baby's hair d) The shape of the nose
32 Everyone is looking for happiness and perhaps the best way to get it is to give it to
others.
