Teachers are our second parents
Abstract
The topic of this paper is Ratemyteacher.com. I argue that students, who rate their teacher, capture pictures, and videos, put them online and write bad comments harm teachers’ pride and careers. Government should be involved in solving this problem. Government is the higher authority. Government has all the authority to set any rule in favor of people or not in favor of people. Schools should take part in solving this problem. Parents should take more interest in this problem and do something to solve this problem.

Starbuckswashing
The topic of this paper is Starbucks. It argues whether Starbucks’ activities are “Geenwashing” or not. These are three arguments here. First, their activities for the environment are not the activities for the environment. Second, coffee bean makers, Starbucks’ essential partners, complain to Starbucks because Starbucks does not make enough money for their partners. Third, Starbucks attracts us who are concerned about the eco-activity and health-conscious, but they deceived those who try to act against the global warming.

Third, working toward eco-business will be good marketing worldwide because Cargill Dow makes corn-produced clothes cheaply and for environment impact.

Abstract
The topic of this paper is limiting internet access. I discuss the fact that the internet has many problems that won’t accrue if we limit the access to the internet. The first problem is companies’ losses, because the internet is used by employees, and the second is waste of time because of long hours that people spend surfing the internet. The third problem is the misuse and the crimes that are committed by some people who surf the internet.

YOUTUBE
It is one of the most popular video sites in the internet. Usually I spend three to four hours watching different videos from all over the world. It has interesting videos and once you watch one video you want to watch another one. Homemade and comedy videos are the ones that i like to watch. It is really nice and funny too and some videos also catch the feeling specially if it talks about personal problems. In addition, shocking videos are there too but I don't recommend that any one to watch them because those videos are videotaped and it is without any image controlling

CARBONDALE AREA
Carbondale is one of the best places i have visited. It is really small but at the same time it is full of life. when I drive around Carbondale I enjoy the views of the nature that human beings were less likely to be involved in. Tress are everywhere; also lakes and parks are huge enough to attract anyone's attention. Bahrain is a nice place to visit, but it is like any other big city, full of cars, air pollution, human-made parks and so on. If you wake up in the morning in Bahrain you smell the air mixed with pollution, which is totally different from Carbondale where there is fresh air only, so that you will miss a lot if you do not wake up in the early morning in Carbondale.

CESL
CESL is one of the most successful programs around the country. I have been at CESL more than one year and half. I enjoyed every single day at it. I learned a lot from CESL, not only educational stuff but also social things too. In my case, what I want to advise our awesome CESL to do is to give students some SIU classes while they are in CESL, because most students are shocked when they get to university for the first time. Also, it is great thing for breaking down barriers between CESL students and American students. In addition, some students have the abilities to speak English, but because of the lack of pronunciation classes they pronounce most of the words wrongly. Moreover, if CESL organizes its social life programs with SIU programs, like arranging for visiting different places, this kind of program will help students to interact with other students and improve their language. Also, there is a very important thing that CESL should provide, which is a " psychiatrist" at the CESL. Most of the CESL students suffer almost from the same symptoms, homesickness and loneliness and that might affect their studying progress. Thus following up students on studying as well as personal matters might help to parallel their college life.

FLUENCY EXERCISE #2

INSTRUCTOR: MR. LEVERETT
PEOPLE AND FOOD
People have different taste when talking about food. Regularly food type changes among cultures and countries. In my country people usually eat a lot at breakfast. A regular breakfast is composed of two tortillas, rice and beans, and coffee as a drink. Other people prefer eating fried eggs with rice and beans. In my case, I can start my breakfast with coffee and bread.
In my country, lunch is considered a very important meal. People usually eat enough in order to have energy to face the long boring afternoon. Lunch is usually composed of beans and rice, beef and tortilla. The drink is usually made home juice because people don’t like to depend on Coca Cola or other famous drinks.
At dinner, people usually like eating rice and beans, avocado, fried eggs, and coffee. Many people in my country do not like eating a lot at dinner because most of them go to bed early. Rice and beans are both part of every day meals in my country. People cannot live without eating them. Beside that, tortillas, they are made of corn, and are always accompanying the different meals during the day.

Internet Revolutions
Abstract
Internet Revolutions
The topic of this paper is Internet revolutions. It argues that there are people who are unable to use the Internet and there are some solutions for people who have no benefits of access to the Internet. The first solution is that some organization should provide free or cheap computers in the rural areas, because they don’t even have enough money to buy computers. The second solution is that some corporations should provide free Internet access to children or students. These could change the world’s perceptions. And the last solution is that municipalities should provide mobile computing Internet accessibility in their towns. They should provide some free cyber cafe so people that don’t have computers can use them.

Starbucks Attempts Green Business Strategy
The topic of this paper is Starbuck is greenwashing. It argues that Starbucks, which are greenwashing, should quit pretending to be going green and make an effort to make themselves green. There are three reasons for this argument. The first is that Starbucks is one of the companies that say they are going green, but actually they aren’t. The second is that Starbucks made strange decisions with their money, which means they didn’t pay any money until they were forced to do so. Last, paying money for others to work for environments is not a solution to making itself green.
Here is my research paper
