Choose friends


Mohammed Al Herz
Intermediate 1 R/W 

                          There are some people choose friends who are different from themselves, other there are some people choose friends who are similar to themselves. And there are advantages and disadvantages for each one. First, if you choose friends who are similar to you they will understand you quickly and know what you want, but if you choose friends who are different from yourself they will not. Second, when you choose friends who are different form yourself you will gain new experiences and these experiences may be it will be a good one or bad one. While if you choose friends who are similar to you. You will not get any new experiences and then you will still in limited experience even after several years until you chose another friends. Third, people are different from you would be able to criticize and introduce you to something new and different, but people are similar from you they would not. Forth, people are similar to you would be beneficial in which you can enjoy things together and share the same opinion, but with people who are different from yourself you cannot do this.  Finally, when  you choose friends who are similar to you. It will be easy to place to go outside because you and your friend have the same opinion. In the end although I think people choose friends who are different from me is better than choose friends who are similar to me because I believe people need to friends who are different from them to improve themselves, but as you know everyone has his or her opinion.

My Native Language And My Scound Language

Mohammed Al Herz
intermediate 1 W/R
                       
                       Learning my second language was harder than learning my native language for several reasons. There are some similarities between my native language, which is Arabic, and my second language, which is English, but there are many differences. The reasons that made me learn my native language easier than my second one is. First is the communication, I was surrounded by people who spoke my native language. Second is age, I was a child when I was learning my native language and studies explained that a person can learn in early age better than in lately age. The similarities between my native language and my second language is. Formula, they have the same formula, which is SVO . Also, they have some similar words like lemon, light, glass and many other words. The differences between my native language and my second language is. First, in Arabic language there are two formulas which are SVO and VSO, but in English language there is one formula, which is SVO . Second, English is written and read from left to right while Arabic is written and read from right to left. Third, the English language has 26 letters while the Arabic language has 28 letters. Finally, the Arabic sentence may not contain a verb. In the end although I have not mastered English yet as you know there is not any language is hard to learn if you have a determination you can learn any language.
