Choose ONE topic and
write an opinion essay, a story, a for and against essay, or a blog post:
"The most important lesson I have
ever learnt"
Many people think
that the most important lessons we learn help us very little but it is not
true.
I think that the
most important lesson that I have learnt is being polite. My parents taught me
to be polite when I was very young. I learnt that being polite is extremely
important nowadays.
In difficult
situations treating other people well will me you feel a better person like
when you leave your seat to an old person in the public transport. You feel
proud and that person appreciates it. When my grandmother needs it I like
people doing it for her.
In my opinion being polite opens many doors, helps many people and makes you feel happy.
