Q. It is better for children to grow up in the countryside than in a big city. Do you agree or disagree? Use specific reasons and examples to develop your essay.
A.
I disagree that any environment is central to raising children. We know that children belong in many environments. Where are they found mostly, walking. Children are found against the sidewalk. Sidewalks exist in most large cities and small towns. We keep children against the sidewalks regardless of upbringing.
Oh, what corporate gleaming strudels of a large city these skyscrapers mask actually. They rise upwards, their brochures declare their roominess, but we need much new arrival room. Put it in furnished apartments seems better than dropping them along residential corridors outside the city. In this fashion, we can all rank on an audience expectation spectrum while residing in a rigid metropolis. The city is an honest to goodness sign. Serviced apartments attract new skills and talented individuals from all over the nation. These buildings are fully laden with furniture, coverage and are usually cleaned and repaired. This means that problems are duly and quickly fixed.
In general, contact a real estate broker to find a fully furnished apartment for rent and be sure to request locations in the city that you favor. Attempting to find temporary corporate housing without a broker can be daunting. This is what the country will do. You should avoid this endeavor. Once you understand that brokers discover the best temporary corporate housing, signing the lease is simple. Your broker will facilitate the process and will help you through the hoops of processes of renting.
Yet another benefit to renting a fully furnished apartment is that you have no in-house worries. This is not true in the country, where in-house worries encroach. All dents and dings are usually covered, and all dust and dirty cleaned and swept away. In the country though, dust and dents invade. Children will have to preoccupy themselves with these tasks.

TOEFL Essay - earth is harmed
Q. Some people believe that the Earth is being harmed (damaged) by human activity. Others feel that human activity makes the Earth a better place to live. What is your opinion? Use specific reasons and examples to support your answer.
A.
I do believe in the harm done to the earth, and the people who are exacting it. I don't trust them. I feel that activity increases our anger, and some people deeply involved in action to harm the earth understand the action as necessary in a much more heartfelt way than those who venture to save the planet and still do it.
Many of our bright engineers harmfully pursue a scorched earth strategy in hunting for novelties. Many novelties are not in the We seriously harm it. When technology is created, getting inside the earth and pushing outward, it uses the earth markets to make more copies. We scour for gadgets, and we go to war and supply full minerals. We dig for minerals to put into our computers. Years later, we regret these actions. Huge vitamin companies are willing to painstakingly process ingredients so that these are efficiently carried throughout our bodies. But there is no equivalent that the earth can really speak of. I will now speak to truth to my best ability.
I wanted to be ignorant, and speak of mere shoes. But the earth yelled when I ran across its face. I was aware of the harm I had done in my logging profession. Harnessed in twilight, the forest holding, then let loose. With a chainsaw in my hand, everything quieter when it kicks off. I logged. I was aware of the league of necessity and trial. We had for long emphasized our harm of nature that damage became the only thing we knew to do.
Many hauling their quarry out of the woods had this look of sheer awareness, that what they do ravages. This look is conveyed through the lens, too. But then, subtly, an interaction with music, a sound from their headphones, inside of a technological trumpeted sound is a small being dead.

TOEFL Essay - bicycles, automobiles then airplanes
Q. Choose one of the following transportation vehicles and explain why you think it has changed people's lives.
• automobiles
• bicycles
• airplanes
A.
Modes of transportation have changed lives. In some cases they've made our world a better place. All masteries of bicycles, automobiles and airplane contribute to the fascination we have with endless motion. I will discuss three types of getting around and how they've changed our time here.
Bicycles moved men and women from walking on two feet to holding handlebars and seated. Pedestrian gain power over larger masses on the street. On bikes, men and women become full of aggression, and assume the rules of the road. No longer walking, humans have earned a whole set of rules foreign to their walking cousins.
Automobiles power us to move. Everyone buys one so that they can be powered. Now, we can choose from a great pool of cars. They even have the automobiles which are manufactured custom. This car fits to your body exactly. Your curves are cushioned in a way no other vehicle can. Knee room, headroom, and your arms reach the radio dial comfortably. You turn to mystery channels easily. You can hear the voice while driving. Our lives have changed because we can hear voices and drive automobiles.
Airplanes are singular motions in the sky. Nothing made of artificial sense survives there. Planes taking off at diverse hours stay free and isolated in bottomless refraction of denying the oblivious. We look out and see the dots of counties and wonder what adherence we do to rock. Grown lotteries, these avionics. It's a chance physics might kick it, and then the interesting relay happens.
Humans have seen themselves bend double for street gear, turn dials in fancy machines, and learn to tray their electronics during take off and landing. Technology asks us to follow precise rules. Or usually the comeuppance is swift and saws into us. Just think of the first time a gear tears into a body. If you don't stow your gadgets, interference results and we don't get a redo. For some technology, we've learned that redoing the landing isn't considerate.

TOEFL Essay - The 21st Century
Q. The 21st century has begun. What changes do you think this new century will bring? Use examples and details in your answer.
A.
The 21st century is already on top of us. This first decade has really held us down by the wrists in a way that doesn't win friends. This decade hasn't been serving up amiable relations, and I don't see change likely. What science fiction writers dreamed would be an intergalactic jubilee of togetherness has ventured off into the shoe store of cheesy and smelly unshowered consumerism where different styles vie for our spending.
Robots are useful in movies. Each arm and leg movement works as a translator to human goods. These mechanisms are sometimes cheeky, and sometimes they err in ways that advance the plot. Surprisingly, a robot saves a person within each sci-fi novel while other robots simultaneously work to thwart human life's continuity. Imagine in the winter as a salt truck pours down the street next to the silent basketball court if there were robots with medicine next to robots with human piercing weaponry. There might be prison robots, some for enforcing, some for medication and still others for love. This is not the future we've been given, however. Robots now make goods. That is all they do. These goods' lives culminate being fought over if they're popular or returned to distributors if they aren't. Robots lead lives of quiet inability to program robot arms in an intelligent way. Technology in the 21st century, instead of being raised to the sublime, has fallen to the most mundane of uses.
The great party we all expected in 1999 to happen in 2009 never came to fruition. Instead, we stood around in plumes of dust. In a rather lack of bizarre balancing acts, our tables have been moved farther apart. Elbow room is what we now require. Shoulder our arms, each table a matte fortress. The robots are in the kitchen, where we cannot interface, preparing our meals. They don't even do that. These robots grind used food into compost, and we cheer that. We accept that ta robotic swirling blade performs no more function than to grind up orange rinds. This resignation, sounds like we should be so disgusted.

TOEFL Essay - freedom, security or independence
Q. Which do you feel is more important in your life: security or freedom and independence? Use reasons and specific examples to support your opinion.
A.
Keeping your rooftop secure, now that's a goal to set. Maintaining freeing theories and worldviews, that can help out the most downtrodden. There are probably people under them, and under them. Independent from all fetters, we find we imbue each resulting task with a quick resolve, regardless of whether this resolve is pantomime. Of these three paths, we judge it more judicious to sell ourselves on freedom, since our free minds push the other two. The security of your homeland security might reach some deafening sounds. If the noise is too atrocious, it counteracts with how many flags we wave. And so, in this way, security stomps freedom, which only adds to the rising importance of this free idea.
Crowds love to wave flag. Each person has a flag in their face that they're free to wave. If you squint your eyes and view this multitude, one big flag can be seen, sending a large message to other groups and causing disagreements. Freedom is the goal that gets large numbers to hide behind the flag because this latter is useful. Flags are utilities. If you want greater freedom, simply rile airwaves with ideas that the flag is there for win freedom, and that wrapping ourselves in the flag makes us breathable. If listeners understand that the flag is hurt, it means the colors are running to where there is security. But in the end, we are free to run. This freedom motivates our legs to get far away.
Especially if you splash a flag across a magazine, a newspaper, or even a small bathing suit, there are ways to use freedom. The flag spells freedom. You are free to wave it, and others are free to object. But these others cannot threaten with harassing gestures. If you want the most work done, instilling freedom into us is a way to exploit in a way that benefits and trims us. There can be no security if there is no community.

TOEFL Essay - television destroys friends
Q. Do you agree or disagree with the following statement? Television has destroyed communication among friends. Use specific reasons and examples to support your opinion.
A.
Television certainly destroys friendships. Put a television between two people and fights happen. Friends of amicable nature cannot build relationships with background noise of any kind. If you are pulled in one direction, you cannot simply tug another direction without significant loss of power. Let's speculate for a few.
Television requires an in-depth sense of surroundings. You must assume what you're seeing is fake. Yet at the same time, your investment in the picture is surrender: you sense enjoyment and give yourself to it. If you aren't asked to surrender, then a medium flailing in front of you is easily parted with. With departures regularly from scheduling, a station would go under. Use this analogy with friends. Friendly programming shares these attributes. For example, if you had a friend who talked at you all the time, imagine the ad space that would take up were your friend an actual television. There would be ad space all the way to the moon if your friend just would shut up.
Friendships require a lasting attention. You cannot flip a friend to another friend if you don't like what they have on. You will be plastered to your seat, working on staying focused like in an exam, attached to what your friend pronounces. This your requirement. Attention to friends cannot be shared with a black box of plasma proportions. The newer televisions are objects of beauty we cannot resist. Weathered friends are beautiful but not objects, and are not designed to pull our visual attention in. There are few things less abysmal than a black and untouched television screen. If you want to see the future of interpersonal relationships in an era of mechanic broadcast expertise, look into the darkness of the flatscreen.

TOEFL Essay - best boss qualities
Q. What are some important qualities of a good supervisor (boss)? Use specific details and examples to explain why these qualities are important.
A.
Most of us find ourselves working for many people during the course of our lives. During each day, we have many bosses. A boss is who you obey at any moment. Some people call their boss God, some people their wife or even their own children. Regardless of the boss target, every good boss shares qualities of being satisfying to work for and generous within reason.
Bosses worth working for are usually satisfying to work for too. In general, I want to work for someone who wants my work. If you're going to have people under you, your face and words must be expressive so that employees recognize their needs, and so that each project hits the target. For example, if you work to complete a project under deadline but the boss face is calm, too much of this doesn't motivate, and the air in the office is lackluster. No one rushes, and rush work only happens under the extreme vise of last minute throwing things together. This is not a good environment.
Bosses generous without reason are soon departed and their money is shortlived. A good boss then, is a person who gives and receives equally from their subordinates but not to the extent that work is negatively affected. I would tell you what this balance is, but I'm not a good boss so I wouldn't be an expert. Expert bosses are those who can walk this line. No employee benefits greater than with a boss whose generosity is focused and reality. Walking through the office garlanding the hallways with money and promotions is one side, while never advancing your office companions and instigating an atmosphere of fear and hatred with numerous betrayals for measly scraps is something else entirely. A boss must skirt this line.

TOEFL Essay - small and big schools
Q. Some students prefer to attend a small university. Others prefer to attend a big university. Discuss the advantages of each. Then indicate which type of university you prefer? Use specific reasons and details to support your answer.
A.
Small universities these days have aggressive recruiting tactics. They pester you in the mail before high school is over. At the end of 11th grade I had a full mailbox. My mailbox was my communication with the outside universe, and yet, despite these interplanetary pledges of scholarships and financial aid, I found myself wanting the charm of big spaces and big faculties. I wanted immense faculty payrolls and the learning only a large university can promise. Both small and big schools provide their students with different exploration, and both offer a full range of disadvantages too, some of which I'll discuss. I will probably only have very small breath at the end with which to voice my preference. I assume dear readers understand.
Small schools have small school problems like money and athletics. Small schools have personalized business that each students gets down to, and the professors care about what they teach. However, tiny groups of academic institutions have little bargaining power because they have no money. They cannot put anything in their mouth and bark and expect the government to listen to their bite. As little recipients of money matters come their way, these small educational repositories intend to promote athletes but without money, cannot pull big names off of the big schools' minds. So now let's talk about big places of learning.
More populous universities receive money and athletes, but you become one in a large number. Each student is assigned a number, and this is your identification. No two are alike, and yet, in a pile of numbers, students find anonymity; they are allowed to flourish behind closed doors, and fulfill their research potential outside the confines of small walls small schools furnish. It's because of this last desire, that others might leave us alone to brandish, that it's the large schools where my preference lies.

TOEFL Essay - which vice do you prize
Q. What is one example of a vice which is ultimately important to us? Use reasons and examples to support your response.
A.
We prize many negative traits: obstinacy and brutal honesty. But none is more widely acclaimed than greed, mainly because greed ensures prosperity and distinguishes us from monkeys.
When we need money, greed helps. If we weren't consumed by small greed, movement would be difficult. I'm greedy so I get a sandwich, because the vice gives a name to my stomach pains. It would decimate humanity if we were all immobile. Standing around, drinking small milk pint cartons. With cow faces and bleeding gums. We would only be waiting for the hammer to take us. We would need utter care. While a burgeoning industry sprang up around us, some nurse would need greed to help lift us from this gumming. And while ambition is our motive, greed our motor.
A car is made of enough greed that it moves. Planes move via greed. Even sporting events like the Olympics are traded for greed cloaked as an award. Those medals are dappled in the rapacity of a lawn dart. Greed matters to us. It moves us. Large pies do indeed exist. We move on them with cupidity at an angle saying “I want.” We only have access to pieces if we're greedy enough. Yes, hunger is a type of greed. And the small waist trumps the big waist this winter. Small waists quickly exit boats, moving ashore to feel hookah. TO have the first drop of greed must push in your favors. Once pushed and in the withholding position – we might call this instinctual response – but when we have insight to ask for certain dishes, this is the greed. The clams look good and you snag them. Animals make no requests, because greed doesn't exist in the stomach, but in our mouths.

TOEFL Essay - Athletic salaries
Many avid sports section readers are not living in caves; they have seen the headlines about various entertainers and athletes who make extremely large-figure salaries. Some presume this is well-spent lucre, supporting these ludicrous payments. These payments must stop, because they stir up fear and inflate prices.
With so many other competing forms of distraction, it's honestly terrible business to pay so much for what another would do for free. Perhaps sports should be comprised of volunteers.
We act as if performers whose bellicose careers were media-made now demand playoffs from the media. The media made you, performer person. Spectacle is, needless to say, not true action, which is why entertainers and athletes should not receive such obscene amounts. When you get paid this obscenity, wondering if there's an end no longer matters. We assure increased cash payouts and the ad dollars return some of that outlay. No one owns the public; the public owns the performers. So why award the flash with millions when his or her replacement awaits. An endless parade ensures bystanders.
We can only shoot at each performer with so much junk. Some junk is blocked by technological advances. Privacy is greater, unfortunately, to aim and fire whatever surplus rumor we can't smile upon. Then, our entertainment refers to a monster. Devouring the rumor mill and the industry insiders, even good nature cannot do. As a performer, you must put out what a majority expect. Every person feels needs to occupy the earth's center. This apex is something of a mechanical bull. Without a firm leash on the functioning of how this mechanical beast bucks, the results go viral and the multitude's eyes pop out viewing fame. If such an entertainer were to lose interest or present themselves with an injury, the end.

TOEFL Essay - eating in or eating out (edited)
Q. Do you like eat out or eat at home? Compare both options and choose which you prefer.
A.
Eating out and eating at home, both fine options. In fact, often mixable and you're able to fine dine in the comfort of your own dwelling area. I prefer eating at home because of the profit of chewing at your leisure, and the solitude a fine meal provides.
When you're on death row, you're given a last meal. This meal isn't out in the open; guards present this meal in a caged room, to you, fine dining criminal of the West, with any request you wish. When the zoo turns to fiddling and spectacles, you are paraded before double-sided glass. Most criminals know what I know: that you eat better and with a depth that eating in public doesn't provide. Rats and bugs, I reign over how much rodents and insects penetrate public ingredients. Restaurants, those places of communal elbow rubbing, cheap uniforms and snapping guests. I found these additions to my soup at different times. Now, at home, you fill the room with leisurely bites.
A solitude within your home engulfs your activities. I'm alone and the afternoon is to my back; I cannot hold true to the passing of time, and only a weight reminds. Heavy, deaf and quaking, this chance to eat at home. No longer to be seen, but to thrive on one's own. Eating in your home allows you to hunker down and enjoy your own time with food. There's nothing to look forward to paying the bill, and without service, waiters cannot be angry. You are your own chef, waiter and jury. Solitude is a welcome change from most cities, and your thoughts are at peace. You choose this meal with its own solitude, this is not another loneliness. You and the food, welcome to devour piecemeal.

TOEFL Essay - luck has something to do with success
Q. Agree or disagree: Success has nothing to do with luck. Use reasons and examples.
A.
We succeed in the open, in the dark, in the autumn. There are no bounds that hold us if we are in a successful mold. Luck is just another small forte. If you have talent then luck has nothing to do with skill, and since skill has no name in success, luck will suit you with success. In fact, the reverie of missing a bus is only accrued luck when we recollect. If there is no reflection, success will raise your hair.
We view luck as offshoot. Its branches are suitable tendrils and foundling. The myth of children features prominently into the prime time of unattainable classmates. These are no passing whims, and often this luck is seen as inhabiting the most minimal conversing. From it's cold outside, to you should artificially inseminate for the highest chance of when we incur fertility. So when you hold the dice you use luck to explain gravity and friction, but these have much to do with success from a physical vantage. If I select a job and the job stops on me, I cannot blame friction. The rub is what appears as much more an agent of some repercussion.
If we cannot blame frictions, then the earth signals a disguised paddy. This tort is a large slice of why rebellions occur over food. Comestibles are not what you'd consider likely substitute rations for discourse or progress, but realty says what's different. In fact, you can't eat what bleeds, or bleed eats. Food conflicts over the course of our century will hinder international as well as internal relationships. Conflicts over nutrition have little to do with success and more to do with luck of fortuitous geopolitical positioning and resource dispersal. In some cases, the greater population of political scientists ensures the greater a region's luck. Why? This damning creation has roles for each body to inhabit, and some people are just better at finding bacon. Politics recovers ham.

TOEFL Essay - We must stick to the truth
Q. Agree or disagree: we should always tell the truth. Use reasons and examples to support your response.
A.
There are radical truth-tellers among us, and ponderous experts are left wondering if those intrepid adherents to this hallowed credo should walk free, or live to regret it. It's preferable to always stick to the truth, however, in spite of how many threats you get, because it is revolutionary and it defeats secret mentalities.
There is a revolution emergency from truth and telling it. In the ages before light came about, many corners and aspects of life were left to our disadvantage. Many subject areas lack knowledge, and lead to inaccurate explanations of phenomena. Explanations in roundabout tongues are inefficient. If you create gods before an understanding of the universe, those gods also lack universal comprehension. The gods only know as much as you, as you are a go-between.
Life has gotten complicated, so secrets become dangerous trips for which we are practically unprepared. When considered, the truth isn't just one lane, but a superhighway, and runs us over. Finally resolving who says what renews our faith in already stressed infrastructures. The truth should remain grounded, however: it is not about individuals, or one nation, but about setting. The environment where truth is discovered sets a lot of damning free. What we now see is the opposite. At the height of the aughts, our society has been thrown into the midst of a secret mentality. Policy relies on hiding objects that don't need to be hidden because even the obvious substances can be used against us. Such rampant dismissals of truth lead other nations and communities to believe in our puppet ignorance. We are not the masters of some other planet, nor are we owned. A firm resolution to stick to truth would reveal that we're certainly intelligent.

TOEFL Essay - big companies want to build factories in your town
Q. Somebody wants to build a big factory in your town. Do you support or oppose this plan?
A.
If somebody were to come along wanting to construct a large workplace in my hamlet, I would suggest to them that the more the merrier, but also that it depends what their workplace will bring to my township.
Buildings populate my village's surface. Wherever a surfeit of ground exists, an enterprising young person is always present with plans and a clipboard, just anxious to map out the territory and change its geography. I wouldn't build walls between myself and this person. Instead, what can we do in our power to welcome them? I would participate in every step of the planning process, and it would be in this way my voice would be audible. As an actively participating newcomer, whose voice would big business most likely adhere to? The one or the many? A committee of concerned citizens comprised of townspeople often speeds up construction.
What is happening in the workshops and on the tables? What is there contained? Even adults need to satisfy their mouth curiosity under their noses. If we ask a question, an answer put silence back into our faces. Companies that offer tours to fascinated locals provide valuable feedback. A business tailors its operations to suggestions based on the demographics of its flagship. Telling us about what truly will transpire within those walls is not a privacy issue. Good narrative might leave questions, but workplaces must force meaning. Those in the uncertainty business debate this. A factory is no person without privacy, because factories do not possess consciousness, and employ no cover to hide the workings underneath. In a workplace, all is shown so that the quickest solution can be discovered. The more clothing, the longer the fix of any issue that a factory might face. Therefore, as long as we know what rests inside our buildings, a full welcome is respectable.

TOEFL Essay - are parents the best teachers?
Q. Are parents the best teachers? Why or why not?
Parents aren't often certified to do the job of parenting. Teachers are certified to do the job of teaching. However, classrooms are established to teach only during certain hours. Parenting fills in the blanks around the clock. I will discuss the parental argument: Learning best occurs in the most voluntary moments and parental boundary is limitless.
While teachers go to school and learn methods to control and educate, parents learn control through uncontrollable urges of children. This school lasts throughout childhood growth. Mothers and fathers are witnesses to every moment of childhood discovery. This is not an aspect of educational life we reproduce to become a teacher. In a classroom, students learn facts, but at home, children become sons and daughters who learn interaction and feelings. They aren't guarded as they are standing in front of strangers in an inhospitable building that resembles a prison. Going outside at home isn't signified by ringing bells or buzzers, you just quickly inform mom and dad. There is no chain of command that becomes a hurdle.
Parental boundaries are limitless, and what children learn, priceless. When a parent wants to teach a child a lesson, there's no regularly scheduled class time used as a receptacle for so much lesson. We do not rely on a didactic mention that “now is the time we learn how to flush the toilet.” The toilet lesson is simply done and over with, and the space between the lesson and learning is insignificant. The lesson rests in the exchange and the broader understanding in the parent and child eyes. Sharing the same DNA almost allows for non-verbal communication, which is only slightly possible after months of classroom teacher. The bonds between parents and their children aren't likely reproduced, no matter how many certificates the person standing in front of your child has earned.

TOEFL Essay - reading and writing as diminished essentials
Q. Is reading and writing more important than it was in the past? Use reasons and examples to support your response.
A.
Civilization sparked, and humans started off writing on the walls of wherever they lived. This communication is no longer socially accepted. However, the form of expression was basic and conveyed meanings of battles, hunts and daily life. Today, both reading and writing have diminished, and yet their importance grows. Our reliance on technology and our consumer selves necessitate a strengthened hone of reading and writing.
In an era alive with the Internet, commands are pressed by keys. Since we process these commands by tapping, when we go somewhere we need to type. Writing goals are to communicate our whims to our computers. The most economically we express ourselves, faster computers are possible. Communications break down between user and computer when the writing suffers. I cannot express myself to my computer if the words don't come easily. If I place a withering embargo of communication between my computer and I, then work grinds to a halt. Surrounded by computers, the need for writing is no longer ambivalent. Our need is no longer patient and biding. It is an aggressive need, like a printer with its ream.
Writing isn't the only task in demand. Reading is also an essential task. We navigate multiple pages of text each day. Not knowing how to read is knowing madness. All products jump out at us and declare to us that they are our new favorites. Little is known about which is actually a special addition to our lives unless we can read them well. Consumers must be motivated and informed. Proceed to the purchase area. There, an educated consumer body performs well under the rigors of the market. Markets respect people who learn about their complex histories, and reading exempts participants from the mockery and remorse in the area of purchase.

TOEFL Essay - The past teaches us nothing
Q. Some people say we need to focus on the future and ignore the past. Others think the past holds valuable knowledge for our progress. Which opinion do you agree with? Why? Include reasons and examples to support your response.
A.
We don't want to think about the things we did last night. Dwelling on these activities will bring us little joy, no job and even lesser skills for the future. Therefore, I don't believe that the past holds valuable knowledge in most areas, but especially not for our purposes and not for our love.
Some are rumored to have discovered their life's purpose in twenty minutes. This is an advertisement. No one honestly counts to determine whether we have an idea about magnetism that controls us. I face north to determine what other directions are. I spit in the field, the ergonomic dusk brooms together my senses, but each time the river is a different one we step into. There is no exact river of our math, which I ended up failing due to my spacial incomprehension difficulties. Search engine usefulness is based on hard work, not on repeat of like searches until our mouths tire from calling in the copse. Even a soup with the same ingredients is as diverse as a kettle is uniform. No purpose exists in a world where the reaction to alike stimuli will produce different offspring.
Our love is part of our nature, and we cannot figure it out. Cloudy destinies are seen in the ball of crystal, and the future decides early to leave us behind in the station wagon. See you in one hundred years, relic. My love in the past was just as worthwhile as my current love. I have incorrectly gauged at times, but the past teaches me little on how to love. Loving strengthens as our pasts catch up to us, but the object of love transfers from a big stuffed bear to human subjects. Our past love, from object to now subject, is of little importance to the present. If I analyze the objects of my past affection, I would be stuck loving something inanimate.

TOEFL Essay - technological changes sway the world in positive fashion
Q. How has technology changed our way of life? Do you see this change as positive or negative.
A.
Technology is like the bricks that aren't tactile. You can't join them together, you can't throw them, they don't hold heat. But technology has built things for us and certainly builds inside us. It's in these inner changes, or these capacities to instigate change in our weaker urges, where technology saves us.
A saving grace comes from distraction. We no longer pine. Pining, an important movement of the romantic era which was dragged on well into the late 20th century and culminating in grunge, spawned pop music. When we like someone, we need a target if those warm feelings are left untended. We pretend we are inside of the song. The song becomes a glove that squeezes us in some pretty comfortable ways. However, the song never fulfills the desire, which is why we like the glove to squeeze repeatedly. Once the desire is fulfilled, we remove the glove. Pining is thus defined as a prolonged tolerance for thinking upkeep based on our dislike embodied in an unhealthy and harmful person.
Another bricked change in ourselves achieved without mortar has been a removal of bad influences. With distractions, bad influences aren't around for very long. These icons are smashed, and removed, because other icons must stand in their spots. Placed to warrant responses, the icon must be foremost in our mind. The icon is a body double for an insane longing. Made real, our hands would toss the person to the moon our rejoicing would never stop. You could not stand the eternal stare of a real virgin.
Finally, everything is recorded, so the same preaching mouths come around, and they are obligated to be smarter than in the past. These new mouths must convince us they do more than drink; they must think of new ways to pronounce the same boring warnings.

TOEFL Essay - You would change one thing about your country
Q. If you could change one thing about your country, what would it be and why would you change it? Include reasons and examples to support your response.
A.
No one is entirely happy with their mother country. Mine suffers from unfortunate problems. What is shocking is that we no longer have solutions. Questions pile up, yet other countries still mistakenly look to us.
In light of our descent into oblivion – relying not on smarts, but instead on might – we view applying the hammer to objects as the road to resolution. But striking to join together differs from striking to smash a whole. Smarts may come from military or civilian sectors, but they must be smarts, not might. Manufacturing used to be big here, and this symbolized a deeper creed in US life: you can build something that will fix a problem. When we stop building projects, constructive approaches to problems are dismissed. Instead, we flourish hammers and wrecking balls from derricks. If we smash what bothers us, we become demolitions and still no answers.
Questions are piling up, and their piling doesn't diminish with further wrecking. If I destroy a wall here, the issues as to why the wall went up in the first place don't fade. If I build a wall, what I am forced to acknowledge is the reason that the wall was a solution. Walls are veritable solutions, but they prompt us. Walls light the fire under us and get us asking the right questions. The wall cannot provide an answer. Captivity only provides questions. Why am I held in here? Kept out? Only when we build answers instead of walls do we fix.
Follow the leader often results in following the evil leader with wrong problem solving techniques. When the US was increasing, our friends increased. Who doesn't want to sit with or near the problem solver? These friends still look to our example, but now we're the one making water and throwing up all over ourselves. This is not an example to follow. Especially when there are mouths to feed.
