EVERYSTUDENT SHOULD WORK FOR ACHARITY WHEN THEY’RE SIXTEEN

These days everyone is aware of at least three global issues, and when we are young, we feel we have the energy to change the world. I believe that teenagers should use that enthusiasm and work in a charity for a year,whichforsuretheywouldnotforget.

First of all,itwellknownthatif everysixteenyear-old boy or girl helped in places where there are thousands of people, animals, plants,etc.inneed,thoseproblemswouldbe solved more quickly. Secondly, it is an amazing opportunity for young people to learnalotof newthingsabouthowtheworld actually works and teach them that they should be thankful for all the things they have. Finally, I think that if everyone had the chance to help, we would be a more loving, nursingandhappiersocietyinthefuture.

To sum up, in my opinion, every teenager should be offered that amazing opportunity and thanks to that, the world would be a betterplaceasgenerationsgoby,allofthem learning the importance of helping one another.

Nowadays young people aren’t conscious of social issues. For this reason, they should work for a charity for a year. The best age is sixteen because they aren’t too young and theystarttobepreparedforreallife.

In the first place, most students live with all the advantages they could enjoy. However, they don’t know that there are many homeless people in the street or that there are a lot of unemployed people. The best thing is that these students could work for a charity, so they would help these people. Secondly, it is a good way of spending their free time, as they spend a lot of time playing videogames or with their friends, therefore theywould benefitfrom working for a charity. Finally, they will feel good if they work for a charityhelpingpeople.

All in all, personally, I feel that young people should work for a charity because this experience would give them a lot of opportunities and they would open their eyes tosocialissues.

CHARITIES ARE NOT AGGOD IDEA.

CHARITIES GGOD IDEA. THE GOVERNMENT SHOULD DO THEIR JOB

These days there are many charities that try to raise awareness about different problems to make the world a better place. In my opinion, these organizations are very importantandnecessary.

Firstly, governments have limitations and can’t do anything without people supporting them.Charitiesworkonpeoplethatbelievein a worthy cause and that try to make things right. In addition, solving the world’s problem can be expensive, and governments don’t have unlimited funds of money, so charities days many that raise about the better place. In these have limitations do anything without people to can expensive, governments of money, charities raisemoneyforallkindsofstuff tohelpsolve those problems. Finally, governments can’t change anything if they don’t know what difficulties people have. Charities raise awareness with different campaigns to make oursocietymorecivilized.

To sum up, in an ideal world charities wouldn’t be necessary but in today’s world they are needed to make the Earth a be place.

It is well-known that social networking sites are very used and known by people from all overtheworld.

On the one hand, social networks are very entertaining because they get people to disconnect from everything. Furthermore, people can meet future friends from other countries.

On the other hand, it may be harmful because your personal information is public so other people may use it against you, they can access where you live, your phone

My Experience During This Pandemic

Allstarted in2019when Iheardaboutanew virus in China, but I did not care because it did not look dangerous. 2020 started and I thought that it would be a normal year, nothing important happened during January andFebruary,butonthe15thofMarchweall hadtostayathome.

They said that we only had to stay for 15 days. I was upset because we had cancelled our graduation trip but it was only 15 days and we ended the second term so I tried to relax. After 15 days had passed, they said that we had to stay longer and we started studyingfromourhomes.Itwasthefirsttime in my life I had to study online and it was differentbutImanagedtolearn.

The lockdown ended in June and a lot of things changed. A lot of dramatic things occurred during the lockdown, but I am lucky because neither my family nor I got infected. BeforethelockdownIwantedtotravelduring the 2020 summer, but when it ended, it was notthebestmomenttotravel.

2020hasbeenthestrangestyearofmylife.I had never expected something like this to happen and I only want the end of the pandemic. At least I have learned a lot of things and I hope things will be the same as theywerebefore.
