40 Min Writing: Movies Are Better Than Book

Movies are better than books

Arguing for movies being better

Points
Takes less time to watch a movie instead of reading a book
More interesting
help visualise
Good if you have dyslexia and/or can't read
adds more effects (eg. comedy, horror

Are movies better than books?? In my opinion yes, there are many reasons as to why they are such as the fact that they; take less time, they're a lot more interesting and they're good for if you can't read and they also add more effects to make scenes and scenarios more effective examples of this would be in comedies and horrors.

Movies take a lot less time to watch than a book does to read whereas a book can take multiple days or weeks and a movie will take a few hours. Books such as the harry potter collection can take multiple days or weeks depending on how fast you read or how much free time you have but with the movie, it takes around 2 hours.

Words are boring to me so I prefer to watch movies and see what's happening rather than finding out myself. With movies there is a lot more detail. An example of this would be instead of saying how Billy was bouncing with excitement, in movies, it can show how exaggerated his excitement was. Or how in books they use the word slash for cutting and there are all types of slashes; slashes that's deep slash that barely skimmed someone or slashed someone in half. But they don't specify these slashes, in movies you see these differences.

40 min persuasive writing

Team sports are better than individual sports
arguing both

Team sports. strategy, communication and meet new people at times.

individual sports. works on strategy and learning to be individual by thinking and doing things by yourself.
--------------------------------------------------------------

 Are Team sports better than individual sports? I think that they are both equally as good since in Team sports you can meet new people and you learn how to communicate and make strategies.
But in Individual sports, you can learn to be more individual by thinking of strategies and other things yourself.

 Team sports such as rugby or NFL can improve your mental wellbeing by talking to others and relieving yourself of your stress instead of keeping things to yourself and having no one to tell it to, exercise helps with this too.

 In Team sports you can meet new people, by meeting new people you can make friendships which could go on for a long time in some cases the rest of your life, for instance, we can use my English teacher who got to know his wife better through touch rugby.

 You also learn how to communicate with others and find out ways to overcome challenges as a team and find ways which work and ways that don't. An example of strategies we could use the NFL and how they make certain team formations for the sort of play they would like to make.

40 min writing: The south island roads are better than the north island roads

South: scenery (Eg: Less industrial areas ), fewer earthquakes

North: nicer roads (fewer potholes)

I think that the south island roads are no better than the north island's roads

I agree that both the north and the south island has reasonably good roads, I have a few ideas as to why they're both good in my opinion; The north island has nicer roads from what I've seen as an example the potholes and roads are repaired much quicker than in the south island.


and the scenery in the south island is better in my opinion due to less industrial or business areas and at the moment there are also fewer earthquakes in the south island too.
