Only formal examination, written or practical, can give a clear picture of students' true knowledge and ability at university level. Continuous assessment like course work and projects are poor measures of student ability. How far do you agree with this latter statement? To evaluate students, teachers might employ final exams or continuous assessments. Some say formal examinations are the only reliable and accurate ways for measuring students' skill abilities and other measures such as continuous assessments during a study course are less important. Firstly, for most of us final examinations are crucible. Some students cannot perform well during exams due to stress and anxiety. For example, often students burn the midnight oil on the eve of most exams. Afterwards, when they are sitting for the exams, they cannot perform well just because of meager sleep. Moreover, final exams cannot evaluate all the facets of learning which a student acquired during a course. Therefore, some study courses need other assessments for final evaluation such as projects which depend on the field of study. Secondly, on one hand, continuous assessments such as projects give an opportunity a facility to teachers to evaluate their students during a course. Especially in engineering majors, defining projects for students can prepare them for real conditions, which they will face in the future. On the other hand, plagiarism may be be is the only reason which makes the continuous assessment such as projects seem immaterial. As far as all students have an access to the internet, they can create a decent counterfeit project without putting any effort. Also, finding plagiarists demands a lot of time and efforts for teachers. To sum up, from the author's perspective, the final score of a study course must not only must be measured by a combination of formal examinations and continuous assessments, but also the proportion of each type should depend on the nature of the course.

Dear Mr.Johnathan Foallowing our previous talk about the Iranian market and the opportunities for new co‐operations, it is necessary for all financiers to recognize the vital criteria within the projects. As I have mentioned in my last email, the act of recruiting people in each project is an important factor that should have been seen before the project feasibilityle studies. In this process, project stakeholders should first categorize their desires in each project by establishing a plan, upon Iranian laws and employees' conditions. By Iranian laws, I want to emphasize on the difference between the amount of gross salary and net salary regarding to the Iranian rules of insurance and tax. Recently, the Iranian government wants to pass/introduce a law in the parliament/majlis congress to support low age labors, less than 29 years old, by eliminating costs of tax and insurance. In this regard, it would be a great/suitable/proper superb condition that should be caught as soon as possible. On the other hand, Iranian employees have passed very hard years and would desire to catching the best options in the recent days (post‐sanction era)time after sanctions?), after all economic sanctions, can enormously affect their lives. Within this procedure, it is its the companies' ability to propose the most attracting offers to absorb high quality and skilled workers. As a In result, it would be a great pleasure to be a part of your human resource team and also your consultant in the new Iranian new market. Having had many years' experience workinged with Iranian companies, today I find myself an appropriate candidate/choice who is not only talented for this position, but also a suitable choice item to convey the entire business in Iran.

105. Students at universities often have a choice of places to live. They may choose to live in university dormitories, or they may choose to live in apartments in the community. Compare the advantages of living in university housing with the advantages of living in an apartment in community. Where would you prefer to live? Give reasons for your preference. University is an important part of our education. We obtain special skills and knowledge to succeed in the future. The first thing we need to decide before starting university is to decide the place where to live in. There are two choices;, one is dormitories on campus and two is apartments in the community. I think both of these options have advantages. I prefer to live in a university dormitory., I will give my reasons to support my answer. Firstly, the dormitory is cheaper, more secure and than the apartment. Secondly, living in the dormitory is more secure than living in an apartment. Finally, living in dormitory provides the chance some chances to find new friends. First of all,the dormitory has many useful facilities such as libraries, Internet access, etc. In addition to these practical benefits, living in a dormitory is often cheaper. On the other hand, students would have to spend their money for buying furniture and kitchen appliances when they want to live in an apartment, so .So, living in the dormitory helps students save their money that what is important at the beginning of their independent life. Secondly, living in a dormitory is more secure because there is a security system onin campus., all dormitories have some rules that every student has to follow them, such as time limitation. And all entrances and exits are checked by security. This is in contrast with living in a community apartment that allows students to have their own privacy and freedom. They can come back their home anytime they want, but they don't have any guard, so . So, living in the dormitory is in convenient and safe. Finally, the student has many chances to interact with so many different other students who belong to different countries and cultures. This helps in developing students' interaction skills. The dormitories often provide the best environment for students to enjoy the campus lifelive. Students can easily find friends to study with. They can easily find easily any information of events that happens onin the campus, but . But when the student lives in an apartment he/she might be alone and feel lonely. To sum it up, considering for all the benefits that living in university dormitories would be able to bring to students, by being more convenient, by having more opportunities to make friends and by allowing students to be more focused in their studies, I believe that living in university dormitories is the best option for students

Nowadays more and more people need news on the Internet. Nevertheless, newspapers will remain an important source of news and important for the majority of people. Do you agree or disagree with this statement? In this day and age, access to of the Internet has increased enormously. Although a large number of people would like to check the news on it, there, a wide type of newspapers are still published yet, so some say the Internet cannot replace newspapers because of some significant reasons. The essay deals with to argue both sides of the topic. From my point of view, the Internet affects a widely spectrum aspects of life aspect throughout the world. It means that it could change people's lifestyle. In the modern world, most of the people rely on it because of the speed of conveying the information. and data. In this circumstance, one of the most important reasons that which people are inclined to attend the Internet is access of news easily. In my opinion, news plays a key role in the business world. Citing an example, market share is one of a good example which where it depends on a lot of factors for changing, so some people especially those (who are) active in this field need to be up‐to‐date/updated for making suitable decisions. Furthermore, the other benefit of using the Internet for achieving news will lead to less paper consumption. is decrease to overuse papers. In fact that with the approach, not only can we save / rescue our nature especially trees, but also it can lead to decreasinge air pollution which what all of the countries struggle with this problem these days. However, this way has obvious drawbacks besides of privileges. From my perspective, the Internet is where people can find a variety of information so that some of them are reliable while and the others are not. Mostly news on the Internet is published rapidly without verification by famous sources, while newspapers commonly have famous ones. It means that an overwhelming number trust of news are considered somewhat unreliable. consider/ include of the doubt in the former view whilst the latter one could create more trusty atmosphere. Moreover, it cannot be deniedy that using newspaper feels classic and traditional sense in terms of tangibility touchable. Not only does it have a positive sense, but also it can prevent leading some physical issues especially some eye problems and diseases. In consequence, having news and being up‐to‐date should not be related to either the Internet or newspapers. From my point of view, both have some advantages and disadvantages and they can be published side by side wisely. Sepideh

Nowadays more and more people read news on the Internet. Nevertheless, newspapers will remain an important source of news and information for the majority of people. Do you agree or disagree with this statement? Over the past few years the rate of people who read news on the Internet is increasing while the number of published newspapers has remained more or less constant, this means that there are still a lot of people who prefer to read a hardcopy in their hand rather than reading an electronic version of the same newspaper. In this essay I discuss the matter further and explain what the actual reasons are behind this issue. It is true that the coverage of the Internet is nationwide in most parts of the world, but there are still a large areas especially in the developing countries where that people do not have access to the Internet due to either lack of coverage or the high price of services. According to the latest statistics released by International Telecommunication Union in most rural areas of African countries the Internet penetration rate is below 12% while the same source reports of 88% in the rural areas in the US. This simply shows why people still tend to read newspapers. On the other hand, let's imagine that the governments could provide Internet coverage to all the population in the country.? Do you think that people start using the Internet to read the news? I am sure that you agree with me that no government on earth can provide an electronic device for all of its people to surf the net. Electronic devices we use to surf the net comparing the paper are still so expensive and not all people cannot afford to buy one. Whilst I can appreciate that the Internet is a valuable source of information, I believe it cannot be widely used by people. In other words newspapers cannot be superseded by the Internet in the following decades. I think newspapers remain will remain at this place just like the radio.

Newspapers affect people's ideas and opinions. Do you agree or disagree? If you agree, is it a positive or a negative development? Newspapers have been traditionally an important part of civil life, providing information and serving as a watchdog against abuses by those in power. Now a query requiring to be raised is how it can affect society. The newspaper is known as a famous industry that can easily sway a range of people by its information regardless of the validity of its news. Not only is this medium easily accessible, but also more affordable, so individuals prefer it compared to another sorts of media. Moreover, in the past, the print media was the only way to be informed about the events and even the governmental issues and accordingly society used to rely on them it and quickly are quickly influenced. Although the popularity of the print media has have been continuing until now, it has changed with technological developments such that the online newspapers are available through the net. Apart from the mentioned advantages, the writers might induce their biased ideas about an event due to their commitment to a political party so that alarmingly news stories may be underreported or omitted and consequently due to the reputation of newspapers that remained from the past, the average people trust themit. Moreover, unfortunately it would seem be seen that the majority of redactors (publishers) seek to entertain rather than inform people and prefer to publish totabloid news. Moreover, the constant barrage of advertising that purposely is directed dircts at people's mind which might illinform the general public. Therefore, it is necessary to raise public awareness so that public will be after valid news and would not rely on every news, additionally for the free flow of the information the press law should be introduced so that authorities cannot can not interfere with the freedom. In sum, as the newspapers enjoy some benefits such as the quick and easy accessibility to news, it may have some pitfalls that have been outlined above. However, in my opinion the advantages outweigh the drawbacks. The community needs to access news and it is the authorities' responsibilitytiy and even individuals to raise the awareness and knowledge in order for the people to make a distinction between right and wrong news. Throughout the history, people always have faced with the partial news and it is not justified for this reason the people to be are deprived of this medium.

Stress is now a major problem in many countries around the world. What are some of the factors in modern society that cause this stress and how can we reduce it? These days, anxiety and stress are increasing around the world. Most of the people are suffering from depression and other mental disorders because of stress. It should be surveyed meticulously and methods need to be found in order to reduce this issue in a serious way. In this essay some indicators that can create stress will be discussed,. Followed by recommendations to address the issue at hand. According to the last survey conducted by a reputable institute (which is) called Tehran Health Care Center, results have shown that there is a proven association between competitions and stress. Inasmuch as people have limited jobs opportunities so they should contest and try hard for recruiting in a small company and undergo pass a lot of tension during it. Moreover, people in each social class in a society are attempting to acquire a better situation. As a result, they go into competition for achieving it also young people are working day and night without relaxation or any exercises during the a week and all of these tensions can create stress. Another reason behind stress would be financial problems., financial trouble is a common source of stress. Credit card debt, rent, the inability to provide for a family, or not being able to make ends meet can put a serious amount of stress on a person. In this society, where so much emphasis is on what a person has have and what can afford, financial stress is something that nearly everyone can relate to and also usually a person is not able to deal with his/her stresses and it would to lead to mental disorders. The former problem would be effectively reduced by governments. For those people who are have strugglinge with managing their stress, governments are able to hold free psychological counseling classes or have free public exercises such as Yoga, Pilates or jogging in parks for relaxation. The latter problem could be alleviated by increasing in jobs opportunities in a way that encourages entrepreneurs or factoryies owners to create new jobs. To put it in a nutshell, from my point of view, although tackling such problems will not be easy, people should try hard to manage eradicate this inevitable problem in their life.
