38.1. Summer holidays are the longest in a school year, what is why lots of people like them best of all. However, students usually experience summer learning loss. While doing a project on how students in Zetland avoid it, I have found a pie chat containing some relevant data that I am going to comment on.
According to the data, the majority of the students prefer reading books (41%) as well as practicing languages (31%) to make their brains work in summer. Meanwhile, doing tests is the least preferable way to avoid summer learning loss, only 3% of the respondents have chosen it.
It is worth mentioning, that locating a summer program is not as popular as it seems to be, at 15%. Nevertheless, it is more preferable than visiting museums. In my opinion, students like spending their summertime with peers in a camp more than watching masterpieces of art or learning history in museums.
Although summer holidays are always wonderful per se, without enriching summertime opportunities, the break can lead to serious academic consequences. The best solution to this problem is to choose one of academic summer programs that provides students with strategically planned, structured summer experiences, like lectures, practices, clubs and excursions.
In conclusion, I firmly believe that avoiding summer learning loss is really important for students. It should be done in order to maintain their academic results at a high level. (233 words)
38.2. Life has been becoming faster and eating out is an inherent part of this process. While doing a project on the most popular fast food in Zetland, I have found a table containing some relevant data that I am going to comment on.
According to the data, people have quite a wide range of dishes when it comes to eating fast. It is clear that the majority of the respondents prefer hamburger, pizza or fries; their joint share is 76%. Although, hot dogs are sold everywhere and Asian food is very popular nowadays, they are at the bottom of the table (15% and 9% respectively).
It is worth mentioning that hamburger has a leading position with 29%. It is more popular than fries that is usually goes with hamburger as a lunch offer in various fast food restaurants. To my mind, fries is only addition to a hamburger or sandwich so it is seldom chosen itself.
One problem that people often face eating fast food is that it is not healthy. Most of these dishes are high in calories, fat or sugar. Of course, there are some soups and salad but it is difficult to eat them on the way. One solution to this problem is to run a fast food chain with a kind of space food, it will be balanced in calories and vitamins, tasty and easy to eat.
In conclusion, I firmly believe that eating healthy food is essential. It will help people live long and happy life. (251 words)
