Compare and Contrast between the UAE and KSA

As we all know, both the UAE and the KSA belong to the GCC. Also they have helped each other for a long time. Nowadays, the relationship between them has become closer. In this essay I am going to write about the similarities and differences between them.

There are three major similarities between the UAE and the KSA. The first similarity is language. Both UAE people and KSA people speak Arabic and this makes communication easy. Another similarity is clothes. UAE people and KSA people wear dishdash and gutrah. Yet another similarity is petrol. Both of them depend on petrol as a major income and petrol is a very important part of the in economy

Although there are some similarities between the UAE and the KSA, there are also some differences between them. The first difference is that the UAE has cinemas in our malls but in the KSA they do not have any cinema. Another difference is area. The KSA is bigger than UAE. Yet another difference is currency. The UAE currency is the dirham but the KSA currency is the riyal.

Overall, the differences outweigh the similarities. However, I advise anyone to go to the UAE because they will find anything they want. Also I advise anyone who goes to the KSA to do Omrah and Hajj.

Making Orange Juice

As we all know, orange juice is a very healthy drink, full of vitamin C. Making orange juice is a long process and this is a description of the process of producing high-quality orange juice.

The first stage in making orange juice is the fruit is unloaded from the truck. In this stage the oranges are graded, washed and sized. After that the juice is extracted. Next the waste is sent for use as animal feed. Then the juice is evaporated (high temperature for a short time) and it is concentrated. Then it is stored in refrigerated storage. After that it is canned by machine. After that it is transported from the manufacturer to where it will be sold. Finally, the water is added to the concentrate.

As you can see, making orange juice is an easy process. If you follow the steps described then you will be successful.

Reflection 2

In narrative writing we have to write four paragraphs:
In the introduction we used past conrinuous e.g: I was eating my dinner with my friends with something happened
In paragraph 2 we have to describe what we saw e.g: Suddenly, we came across an unbelievable scene.
In paragraph 3 we describe what happened
In conclusion we describe how did we feel?

Reflection 1

I found procedure essays simple because they are mechanichal. Introduction, main paragraph, conclusion: 25+100+25=150 words. Use the imperative: do this, do that, don't do this/that. Avoid the ing form as in the flow charts. No imagination or creativity is needed.

Meeting Day

Last year, I was driving to my workplace and I was in a hurry because I was late. Suddenly, I saw a lady lying down on the side of the street which made me slow down.

As I got closer, I saw that the lady was bleeding from her leg, and I wondered how this accident could be. I walked to her to see if I could do something for her and I asked her if she wanted me to take her to the hospital. So I took her to the hospital and I gave her my phone number if she needed any help and she thanked me. I could not believe my eyes; she was beautiful. After that I remembered my meeting, so I was driving faster.

Finally, when I arrived at my workplace my friends told me “you are very late”. Then I told them what happened to me when I was on the way.
