Photo Essay

      I am going to write a photo essay about fast foods.

Nowadays many people enjoy eating fast foods from many 

different restaurants like McDonald's because they are made out very 

fast and because they are cheap.However, they are not always healthful 

to people who eat them.

                            

                                     (From mcdonalds.com)

      This is the picture of the McDonald's one of the most popular food, Bic Mac.

It may look really delicious with double patties but the truth is that it is extremely dangerous or unhealthful to your health. It is known that it contains about 2425 mg of salt, which is a lot. This incredible amount of fat in this Big Mac and salt may lead to serious health issues like artery clogging.

      This image displays the image of MacDonald's french fries. As you can see in the picture, it is really greasy and very oily. This incredible amount of fat and sodium in this McDonald's french fry can lead to obesity and diabetes.

      Imagine yourself taking a bite off of a crispy chicken leg. You might think it tastes really good but have you thought about the ingredients of this crisp chicken? As you've known the chicken leg is fried which means that it is really high in fat.

                                

                                         (from rivercitypizza.com)

      Triangular and filled with vegetables and meat. The pictures shows the pepperoni pizza but other kind of pizza have different toppings. Especially vegetables. Pizza depending on its ingredients, might not be as bad as other fast foods.

                                     

                                             (from andrewsaladino.com)

      This image shows the most popular black drink, Coke. Even though this isn't a fast food, in most times people drink this while eating other fast foods. It is a fact that about 200 ml of coke has about a teaspoon of sugar. Which is a high amount. Sadly other Coke-like drinks like Mountain Dew contain about the same amount of sugar as Coke.

                                                                       

                                 (from blogs.sundaymercury.net)

      Nowadays many people have tight schedules. Students after school goes to academies straight away and other employees work really hard every day. Since proper meals take some time to make, many people prefer to eat fast foods.

                     

                                 (from wholehealthhealing.com)

       As you know now about the fast foods I will tell you about the side effect of eating 

fast foods. Many fast foods like Big Mac and McDonald's fast foods are extremely high in sodium, salt and fat. This might cause obesity in the future and even more serious health issues like diabetes. Extreme amount of salt or sodium can lead to high blood pressure which causes cogestive cardiac arrest, heart attack and kidney problems. 

                                                                                                                                                                                  Even though many people eat fast food due to lack of time and maybe it's portableness, they should consider its health concerns and its bad influences on people who consumes them.

Dear Government of Korea,

      I'm writing this letter because I believe computer games 

have bad influences on Korean teenagers, especially students.

I strongly believe that the Korean government should ban computer

games and Korean students shouldn't play computer games.

Many experts like Dr. Donny , for example agree with me.

I will explain reasons for this and give facts to support my opinion.

      The first reason is because computer games can be extremely addictive to Korean students. There are statistics to show this is true. According to a website, techaddiction.ca/internet_addictior , it states that 10 percent of youth in Korea are considered to be addicted to computer games. 10 percent may not look much. However that is a large amount of students who are addicted to computer games

      

                                                                                                 

    The second reason is because since many part of games are not free, students spend a lot of money in games. There are facts to show that this is true. By spending money in games you can be really good

at games. Especially some students spend money in games because 

of their competitiveness; to beat other people in games.

      The final reason is because computer games make it hard for 

students to focus in school when students play computer games.

It is now known that students will think a lot about computer games and

not concentrate on school. Also some violent computer games cause 

behavioral disorders to students.

      As you can see, computer games have bad influence to students.

Based on my argument, I hope you will consider my point of view

as reasonable and try to ban computer games from students.

Thank You.   

Sincerely, Yul Choi

      Imagine yourself training a dragon and actually riding it. Wouldn't it be really cool? If people are told that dragons do exist and that they have the chance to raise one, I'm sure that they will be excited even though in reality, it isn't true. Do dragons exist? Some people might not believe in the existence of dragons because they'll have never seen one. However, dragons do really exist. Let me tell you guys my story of actually encountering a dragon and training one.
     Just as the summer break started, I was playing a game of hide and seek with my friends in the forest, late in the afternoon like around 6 o' clock. My friend found me so I lost the match when I found a mysterious cave surrounded by abnormal trees as if those trees were actually guarding the cave. After I was finished with playing hide and seek and my friend left so I went back to the cave. I saw beautiful chambers decorated with wonderful ornaments. I was stunned by these beautiful decorations until I was actually paralyzed.
     When I woke up it was so dark in the cave that only thing I could see was a glowing stone. Worried about going home so late I ran, holding the glowing stone. When I checked my watch it was really weird; it was displaying the same time as when I entered the cave. Halfway home, I saw that the glowing stone was cracking. When the cracking finished, I could clearly see a baby dragon! Arriving home and not knowing what to do, I took the dragon inside of my house and slept.
      The very next day, the dragon, had gotten bigger. Every time I gave him some food, it seemed if it was growing very quickly. Also it was truly amazing to see a dragon actually flying. I strolled with the dragon to the forest where I found the dragon, but weirdly the cave wasn't there. When I returned home the dragon had acquired a skill breathing fire. It took some effort to extinguish the fires my dragon has made. When we got back home, my dragon was even bigger. When I first got the dragon, it was a size of my pencil case, but now it was a size of my bag.
     When I got home I searched " how to train a dragon"and "types of dragons" on the Internet. I found out that my dragon was a specie of Hungarian Horntail and that it was going to evolve in several weeks. However the bad news was that it was going to cause a huge riot when it is evolving. Relieved that it was not evolving now, I slept with my dragon again thinking that it must be fearful when evolving.
      A few weeks later, my dragon was the size of my desk about 7 feet long. I was thankful to the fact that my parents were not home, and I could keep this huge dragon inside my house until the doorbell rang. When I opened the door, a man from MCO, Mythical Creatures Organization was standing in front of me. He asked me if T had a dragon. Chills crept up my spine. When I said "no" he just entered my house and found a dragon, then pulled his gun out of his pocket and almost shot him.
